By Terry launched their Hyaluronic Sheer Rouge for Spring 2013. There are 10 scintillating shades. I honestly could not choose, but decided to go with Baby Bloom, sight unseen. It turns out that this is a similar shade to Burberry Lip Cover Tulip Pink. A baby rosebud colour that is more peachy that pink.
Baby Bloom appears slighter brighter than Tulip Pink. This shade is quite opaque for a sheer formula.
Baby Bloom as a milky quality to it giving it a 60's sex kitten look. My only criticism it the strong Rose scent a signature of By Terry Products. I like it, just not in my lipsticks. But having said that I don't dislike enough not to buy more.
Terry de Gunzburg wanted a 'aqua glossy melt away balm'. Me' thinks she managed just that- almost! By Terry is slowly releasing some gems that all form part of the Hyaluronic range. I do have 2 other products : Hyaluronic Face Glow and the Hyaluronic Primer which are both outstanding (and will be reviewed soon) This product is meant to plump and fill. I had noticed that when wearing this my lips (full already) did seem more voluptuous. It does give a nice shine to the lips, more of a sheen in contrast to the new high gloss Tom Ford Lip Color Shine (reviewed
here). This has a bit more 'weight' to it that the Chantecaille Lip Chic which have more slip. I did however found my lips felt a bit 'tight' and it was not as balmy as I'd Like.

Look out for By Terry's NEW Hyaluronic Hydra Blush that is on pre-order on a few sites - on my wish list already!
Do you have a favourite lipstick formula - Sheer, creamy or matte?
Hi Friends. I would appreciate it if you could refrain fron including self- promoting links in your comments, as I then have to mark them as spam. I love to hear from you, but can only publish comments that adhere to the above. I am really forward to hearing from you all!
Great review :) do you find it less moisturising that the TF lip shines?
ReplyDeleteHello Replica,
DeleteThe By Terry seems to sap my lips of a bit of moisture. It has a strange silcone feel. The TF in my opinion while feel more tacky and less moisturising has more comfort in the long run. Which colour do you have your eye on?
I was going to get a few but you are the second person to have said about the lack of moisture now so I think I will just go for Dare to Bare, I'm a fan of By Terry so can't resist trying ;) Thank you for your thoughts on these, it has been really helpful :)
DeleteI am also a huge fan of By Terry, I have not gotten around to reviewing all her products I have yet. Its a good idea to get ONLY one and see how u like it.
DeleteI wore mine around the house for several hours and can attest to it not being that moisturizing. Doesn't feel bad or dry my lips out, but it's a lot less balmy than I expected.
DeleteI wish I had seen your swatch before I ordered Baby Bloom!! Still not sure if I should try it or just exchange for another color. Think I would like it if it was more sheer, but if it's more opaque than it is sheer...eesh...I just don't' know!!! Thank you for the review!
ReplyDeleteWhat colours do you usually wear- there are some pinkier (a word?) shades which look nice. If you can swop might be worth it - as they say "when in doubt out!"
DeleteI usually go for very sheer pinky or nude type glosses. Lipstick I usually prefer a cooler toned berry :-) I just don't know!!! lol
DeleteThis would be out of your 'wheelhouse' then- unless you are looking for a different look, this might not be what u are looking for.
DeleteOk, so against my better judgement (and yours) I was curious and went ahead and tried it on. EW. Not good or even remotely salvageable!!! You are right...Barbie lips and on me that's definitely not a nice look. Boo.
DeleteI have done that before convinced it would work (or hoping so)- can you try top it with a more berry/rose Burberry gloss?
DeleteOk I tried topping it with the by Terry gloss I got & I really like that combo!! I also tried it under a few lipsticks & it mutes out my lip color (as a nude pencil would) & really brightens up the lippies!! Ok...crisis averted!!! Need to try it with the Burberry glosses as you suggested!!
Delete"Houston we have lift off"lol-so glad that it is no longer going to sit lonely in the bottom drawer! will you be trying any more of the By Terry lippies?
DeleteBeautiful shade!! Although I generally prefer opaque lipsticks, I have gradually warmed up to sheer and balmy formula. They're easy to wear, casual and sort of throw-away. Are you cool tone sweetie?
ReplyDeleteHi JoaneP- I am enjoying Baby Bloom- good for spring summer looks. At the moment I seem to be on a cool tone bender. I have recently bought a few that are very similar, almost too similar, but it seems to be my leaning at the moment-and u, what are your favourite shades?
ReplyDeleteI love sheer formula's for everyday, but am loving Burberry Velvet mattes too!
