Do you hear that…? That whispery voice? It seems like it’s saying, “Kiss you, Karen.”
“Kiss you, Karen.”

Soon-to-be-released Kiss You, a reformulated reincarnation of Benefit’s old Kiss Me gloss, has been calling my name for days, as well as who am I to reject a tube of glossy pigmented purple goodness?

Benefit Ultra lusters in Kiss You
Purple has long been one of my go-to lip colors when it concerns glosses since it’s a fantastic alternate to pink (not to take anything away from pink, which you understand I ).
Kiss Me/You as well as I go method back.
How far back? Well, it’s a long story…
Pre-2009 — before 2009, Kiss You was understood as Kiss Me, as well as it was part of Benefit’s The Gloss line. It was a remove fuchsia, not extremely pigmented, that I reached for whenever I desired a just-kissed lip look. It rapidly ended up being a cult fave (and a preferred of mine) as well as underwent a name change, ending up being Kiss You. Seriously, I might sing sonnets about that shade…or possibly an ode.
Summer 2009 — benefit discontinued The Gloss line as well as released a reformulated version of Kiss You in the new Lip Gloss line. Milkier as well as less pigmented, it was nothing like the original. dissatisfied fans huddled in dark corners as well as held one one more firmly while rocking back as well as forth as well as mumbling, “Safe place! risk-free place!” Okay…so perhaps that was just me.
Spring 2010 — The Lip Gloss line was joined by the smooth as well as shiny Ultra Shines. among them, a shimmery, purplish pink called Wild Child, which looked/s a bit like a somewhat pinker version of the summertime 2009 Kiss You.
Today/Spring 2011 — Kiss You is reborn! when again, it will grace benefit counters, where I’ll be waiting with bells on, as one of three new-ish Ultra lusters for spring.
Why are they just new-ish? The other two shades joining Kiss You — Life on the A listing (a light bubble gum pink) as well as who Are You using (a enthusiasm fruit pink) — are likewise repromotes blasting in from the past.
Is the new Kiss You anything like the O.G. Целувам те?
Well, it’s similar, however [INSERT huge BREATHY SIGH] it isn’t an precise match. This version’s much much more pigmented as well as shimmery.

In her new skin, Kiss You is still a fantastic gloss. I like the slick Ultra lusters texture, moisturizing formula as well as four-hour wear time. The glosses in the line are unflavored, however they do have a raspberry Creamsicle scent, which I really like.
So even though the new Kiss You doesn’t restore the O.G. one, I still like it a lot. I can see it now…I’m blowing a kiss to the cameras (well, I imply “my camera”) as well as using it with thick black feline eyeliner as well as a quite pink blush.
Expect to see Kiss You as well as the other two new colors on benefit counters this spring, and, beginning next week, at benefitcosmetics.com.
