You might not always get a sample of a product that you like. Here are two that I not only didn't like, but were surprised by, since they are from quality cosmetic lines. Tarte-lip surgence : Presented as a "lip gloss" product. It claims to be a "pigmented tint", that is moisturizing and non-sticky. The ingredients claim to be vitamin E and jojoba seed oil.
