I got the Neutrogena MoistureSmooth Color Stick in Almond Nude as an Ulta freebie this week and it’s pretty amazing. It retails for $8.99 and gave me great moisture and mango (yes, mango).
What’s to love?
This MoistureSmooth Color Stick from Neutrogena comes in 16 colors including 8 new ones. When I first opened this one I excepted it to have a sugar or cookie scent based on the color but all of the Neutrogena MoistureSmooth Color Sticks are mango scented with Shea butter for moisture. I’m not a huge mango fan but it does smell nice and fresh and I’m fine with the scent.
The pigmentation and color hue is amazing on this one. The Almond Nude shade is so pretty and I think it looks great on my lips. It also has a light shine which I like and the color lasted for a few hours.
The packaging is great with a twist-up design too. This product definitely feels like a high end lip balm to me and they price to great. I think I’m going to pick up Rich Raisin next.

You have the best Ulta Bonnie! How did you get it for free? I got that same color last week. It’s so flattering. I was looking for a Clinique dupe, and these are half the price! I’ve found if I use a lip liner, it lasts much longer.
They keep e-mailing me coupons for a free item with purchase. I love that they do that! It is a good comparison to the Clinique lip stick.
I just got a full size bottle of Japonese make up setting spray for free. It was a $29 value! Of course I’ll never use it, as my make up stays on really well.
Nice color, but too bad about the scent. I’d much rather it have a sweet scent than a fruity one!

I know, I prefer the sweet scents and mango is just “OK” for me.
Such a pretty colour!
