What They Say: "Did you know that the average woman ingests between 2 to 4 pounds of lipgloss in her life? Let’s put that in perspective—708 tubes are in your belly right now!

Beauty innovators Maureen Kelly of tarte cosmetics and Scott Vincent Borba of BORBA teamed up to make one of life's inevitables a little more edible.

Doctor’s orders: Beautify from the Inside Out with vitamin-infused lipgloss. The ultimate in double-duty beauty, tarte’s long-lasting, moisturizing lipgloss works to soothe and hydrate lips, while BORBA’s nutraceutical blend delivers powerful skin-caring ingredients. The pomegranate-scented lipgloss is mouth-wateringly gorgeous with its hint of sexy sheen, but it’s the vitamin cocktail that will keep you coming back for more.

Inside Out includes natural ingredients from BORBA’s Age Defying, Replenishing and Clarifying lines:

* Acai & green tea extract help strengthen capillary walls, reduce epidermal irritation and enhance skin’s clarity and radiance
* Grape seed extract & Vitamin C help accelerate production of natural elastin, protecting skin against free-radical damage & restore skin’s clarity
* Vitamins A, E & K act as antioxidants to give you that healthy glow
* Lychee extract promotes long-term skin hydration and chamomile extract soothes skin and helps to counteract redness "

Jen's Experience: Rarely do I get the chance to try a lip gloss that is so fantastic that I just can't stop raving about it to all my friends. Some have a fabulous color but dry my lips out, others just don't last long enough to be worthwhile. This one, however, is fabulous in every way. I love the thick (but not goopy) texture that really helps to moisturize my lips for a hours at a time. I love the yummy flavor that comes from being fortified with BORBA. And the colors I tried, om and apple-a-day were sheer and shimmery, and absolutely perfect with my coloring. In short, these are the best lip glosses I have in my collection, and I highly recommend adding them to yours.
