Gloss Snobbery with Glamour Dolls
Glamour Dolls, the new line by celebrity makeup artist Jessica Romano, is the answer to makeup that is “both adorable and affordable.” The full line of cruelty-free Glamour Dolls Makeup currently includes two formulas of lip gloss, lip balm, lipstick, eyeliner, glitter eyeliner, eyeshadow, and mascara. This review will be concentrating mostly on the variety of Glamour Dolls lip products, all of which cost under $5 each so you can treat yourself without the splurge.
I love it when companies send hand-written notes
My favorite thing about the Glamour Dolls lip products is how moisturizing they all are. Living in a desert dries out my skin a lot, so I’m always trying to find new nourishing products to use. The Kitty Kisses Lip Balms are waterproof, come in 5 shades, and have SPF15. They look dark in the tube but apply very sheer, which makes them purrfect (sorry, couldn’t resist) to combine underneath or on top of lipstick for a boost of hydration. Hiss and Check Meowt are the sheer purple and sheer pink Kitty Kisses Lip Balms on the swatch chart below.
The lipstick Lip Creams are, as the name implies, very creamy. They apply semi-matte but are still hydrating and don’t dry my lips out like some other matte lipsticks I’ve tried. Juicy Melons is a bolder purple pop or color and Duh is a classic shade of pink. Selfie is too light of a nude for my skin tone on its own, but paired with Gloss Snob in Dollicious makes for a really light and feminine combination. Both Gloss Snobs, Dollicious and Plastic Heart, are impressively well-pigmented. They glide on just as colorful as they appear in the tube and don’t “guck up” or get tacky feeling. The Wildflower and Naked Banana Lip Glosses are also really well pigmented. Jessica recommends pairing Juicy Melons with Wildflower, which I tried and really liked despite the fact that orange hued lipstick usually scares me.
The Glamour Dolls mascara, Lashlights, has a mirror on the back for easy on the go application. It glides on smoothly and its wide-bristle spoolie is perfect for bottom lashes. The double sided Gypsy Eyeliner is a great two-in-one; the lavender end would make for a good pop of color on the bottom lash line.
If you’re on the East Coast there are a couple of Glamour Dolls retailers but the best way to find the products is to buy them online where you can get free shipping for any order over $20. If you have any questions about the line feel free to leave them below. Have you tried Glamour Dolls? What is your favorite budget-friendly makeup line?

Thanks for reviewing these! Hopefully they’re available in Canada cause they look awesome 😀
So far my favourite budget friendly lines are ‘Essence Cosmetics’ (from Germany) and ‘Tony Moly’ (from Korea).
Lovely pics.
Love your blog! x
I love those lip colours! They are absolutely gorgeous!
Seriously just fell in LOVE with these lip products! Just like you, I tend to purchase the higher priced lip items but it’s so nice to see that these lipsticks and glosses appear to be just as good. Nice to know my wallet will be happy after I purchase some of these!
Love your blog btw!
