Lise Watier Toscana Gloss Stick

Toscanacrop Tumbling out of bed on a Saturday and heading to the farmer's market seemed like a good time to sample Lise Watier's Toscana Gloss Stick--there's something inherently Tuscan about going to the market to buy fruits and vegetables. It's the time to wear a strappy little "market" dress and flip flops, and a faint smear of last night's mascara under the eyes is not entirely out of place. A good lipgloss is all the makeup you probably need.

The Toscana colors are grown up, flattering and subtle (this is Ambre), and it has a faint summery suntan oil scent that I find quite pleasing. The reason to buy this gloss stick, however, would be the texture. With an olive oil base, it's yummily unctuous but not sticky or tacky and feels very refined on the lips. A notch or two more elegant than the tinted chapstick products that also serve this casual lip niche. Really lovely. If you don't tolerate lip glosses well because the texture squicks you, then this is a good one to try.

Is there anywhere in the US where you can order this product? I tried to look it up online and it seemed it only sold in Canada. Thanks!

About


  • What do you get when you throw a true beauty obsessive in Europe together with a veteran beauty journalist in LA? Not much room on the bathroom shelves, that's for sure. Make-up, hair products, skincare, perfume, salons, spas, luxury hotels with toiletries and treatments that make us never want to go home - if we've left anything out, you can pry our mirrors from our cold, dead, perfectly manicured hands.
