You might have seen or heard a few things about the new 'Juicy Shakers from Lancome online already as they are without a doubt the most exciting beauty launch of the year so far. They combine the fun vibe of the original Lancome Juicy Tubes, with a more modern texture and even more innovative packaging and application...

They are essentially a tinted lip oil and it is the packaging and application are what makes them really special. You have to shake the cute cocktail-shaker-shaped tube before use to combine the pigment and oil, then use the wide cushion sponge applicator to apply them to your lips. There are three small holes that sit just under the sponge to ensure that exactly the right amount of product is deposited onto the tip. The sponge itself feels like nothing else I've ever tried before... the only way I can describe it is that it's like applying your lip gloss with a soft gummy sweet!

There are 20 shades worldwide but I have only tried one - the Cherry Red. I am assuming they all have different scents (but mostly fruity, but there are a few cakes and caramels in the mix too.) The oil texture is really smooth and glides onto the lips.

These are the perfect daytime handbag lip products for those who want the benefits of a lip oil (they are formulated with sweet almond, peach kernel, cranberry and musk rose oils) with the shine and colour of a gloss.

If you're a beauty addict, you will want to try all 20 shades :-)
