Smashbox's 2 Tinted Treatment Lipstick Recommended by Whom You Know

Our panel was so impressed, we kick this off with their comments:

Smashbox’s Tinted Treatment Lipstick is actually a 3-in-1, you get a lipstick, vitamin-infused treatment and SPF protection all in 1 package. It’s the exact lipstick that summer calls for and which I’ll definitely not be without for the next few months. The combination of the blazing sun and strong air-conditioning tends to wreak havoc on my lips, leaving them chapped, dry and unsightly. This lipstick, with the vitamins packed in the center of the tube, pampers my lips, leaving them soft, smooth and ever the slightest bit plumper. The colors are very subtle and light, perfect for carefree and mirror-free application while you’re out and about. The Beam shade is a natural, beige-y tone that goes well with any complexion, light or dark. The Ray shade, while it appears dark & purple-y in the tube, actually goes on very natural, leaving a slight hint of sheer color and shimmer which should complement all skintones too. I will definitely be alternating between these 2 shades. An added plus, the lipstick case comes in a sleek and chic white case, it’s the must-have summer cosmetic item!

WOOHOO!! I have been looking for a perfect tinted lip balm for myself well forever!! Smashbox's 2 Tinted Treatment Lipsticks are the best thing EVER!! It has a sheer natural color, deep moisturizing, some shine, non-sticky, and has SPF. The product is packaged looking like a lipstick. In the middle you can find a white colored conditioning core and the outer colored side is the tint. It looks dark, but it's not, it gives your lips a subtle hint of color. The texture is smooth and not greasy, it glides right on your lips. My lips feel moisturized all day long. Oh and not to mention this lip treatment lipstick stays on your lips for hours. I love that it protects with SPF 15 and makes my lips smooth with some shine. This is a great lipstick to to have when you want to add a bit of color to your face especially when you don't have the time to put on a full face of makeup.

I’m big on makeup trends and am always looking for new finds. When I came upon the Smashbox tinted lipsticks, I was excited to try it out. I was attracted to this product for many reasons. First, I have used other products from Smashbox and trusted the brand. They have an excellent reputation in the world of makeup and their products are high quality. Second, I was looking for something that was glossy, with a hint of color and something that is NON-sticky. I can’t stress enough on how much I hate using gloss and then having my hair get caught in it because of its viscous, sticky texture! Third, I needed something that I can use every day. Something that was subtle, protective, and moisturizing. That’s why the Smashbox tinted lipstick was perfect for me. I especially love the one that’s in the color BEAM. It has a sweet scent and is the perfect sheer pink. Additionally, it is packed with vitamins and shea butter, and has an SPF 15 in it to protect my lips. What could anyone else ask for?

"As you know from my past features, Peachy Deegan and I were in the same class at Boston College prior to either of us becoming entrepreneurs. When we played together on the BC Alumni softball team in Central Park years ago, she mentioned she could not find a great dentist in Manhattan and could often be found networking on her phone in the outfield hiding from the ball. She was my second patient ever in 2006 when I opened my dental practice; I was one of the first sponsors on Whom You Know and the first Mover and Shaker featured in 2009 and have worked with her continuously since. She's even talked her friends that are doctors into being my patients, and they subsequently send their hospital colleagues. I don't know anyone that is as great of a networker and writer as Peachy, nevermind that she is upstanding and always good for her word. Cosmopolitan Dental is so happy to be in the company of the caliber of major brands she works with today, and although she will tell you a million ways to get your teeth dirty between Peachy's Picks, Terrific Takeout and Peachy's Pantry, Peachy Deegan will tell you there is only one way to get your teeth clean!"
