Hourglass added 4 new shades of their Phantom Volumizing Shiny Lip Balm ($38 every) and they’re extremely lovely. Three of them are shimmers and one is a brand new purple. Out of all of the Hourglass lip formulation that is in all probability my favourite, particularly since I like a shiny lip.
Above left to proper:
- Secret is a rose with gold shimmer (assume MAC Sophisto vibes, however not as frosty)
- Invite is a medium tan brown with gold shimmer
- Wander is a light-weight peachy pink with golden shimmer
- Crimson 0 is probably the most excellent wearable purple for individuals who don’t wish to put on purple

Each single coloration of the brand new Phantom Shiny Balm is wearable and though Wander is on the lighter facet it nonetheless exhibits up on my lips – the pigment is ideal. The common non shimmer shades are very smooth and virtually melty feeling as soon as they’re on the lips. The shimmer model is clean with out texture however they’ve a barely stiffer really feel which I truly like higher.
Since these are shiny balms lasting energy isn’t going to be lengthy, however they don’t slide off simply and I actually like that the end is forgiving so it fades properly. They’re properly hydrating and clean with out feeling thick.
The Hourglass crew despatched a lovely press field with the brand new shades and in addition included three from the everlasting lineup. I’ve reviewed them right here, right here and right here however thought I’d add them right here too together with Need (rose mauve), Lure (plum) and Sense (the very best nude pink).
Total love. Each single coloration is one I believe could possibly be universally flattering. I’ve lastly discovered my new holy grail purple. I hoped the peach orange shade Mystic within the Vacation 2024 Duo could be out individually however it appears to be like prefer it’s solely out there within the set (nonetheless in inventory). I’d find yourself shopping for the set earlier than it sells out since I like peachy coral shades.
