marK Candy Kisses Lipgloss Gift Set
A week ago, I mentioned marK’s new Valentine’s Day Gift Sets - that are surprisingly under $20! Fortunately, I was able to try out marK’s Candy Kisses Lipgloss Gift Set. Let’s see if this gift set is as sweet as it sounds…
Product Details:
- 3 candy wrapped shaped lip gloss pots in Toffee Crunch, Tiramisu, and White Truffle
Approx. Price: $10 for 3 lip glosses
Where to Purchase?: Meet Mark
The SwatchesThe Bottom Line: These lip glosses are definitely great for a Valentine’s Day gift for yourself, a girl friend or teenagers. I love the cute candy shaped packaging - it shouts out Valentine’s Day! They are about the size of a quarter, so one can easily throw this into your purse for a quick pick-me-up. What I notice about cosmetic gift sets, is that well…they are not as high quality as the products sold individually. So, don’t expect high pigmentation or staying power from these lip glosses. These lip glosses may smell incredibly sweet and yummy. but keep in mind that these are very sheer. Toffee Crunch is the least favorite out of this gift set. Sadly, it did not compliment my skin tone at all. I have a sweet spot for pink lip colors, so I am favoring Tiramisu and White Truffle. My favorite out of the three? Definitely White Truffle - a sheer berry color.

Sounds a little dissapointing. I agree that most makeup kits and
gift sets lack a certain quality
that you expect in cosmetics. I guess the philosophy is quanity
over quality.

I find that gift sets are either hit or miss.
