I was in my local Sally Beauty Supply (looking for nail polish, of course!) when I came across this display of lip glosses and this one caught my eye: Femme Couture Lip Luster in Sahara Rose. It looked like Orly Galaxy Girl in lip gloss form! The bottle shows the duochrome pretty well, though it's not as prominent when it's on.
Femme Couture Lip Luster - Sahara Rose
This is how is normally looks: brownish-raisin color base with teal sparkle.
Here's an alternate shot to show the pink/orange/gold side of the duochrome:
It's actually a pretty nice, light lip gloss that's not sticky or gritty in the least. It has a very sweet scent and lightly sweet flavor. I'm not sure how long it will last, but I'm pretty pleased with it. I love the oddball teal sparkle that shows most of the time.
Obviously I don't normally photograph makeup, so the pics aren't that great (also, I ran out of nice natural light)... I'll work on it for next time, haha.
Now after getting them home I see the differences in the base colors, but the duochrome sparkle seems to be very similar. Here is an old, blurry (bad) pic of Orly Galaxy Girl. I plan on re-swatching this one to compare it to the Purple Blue duochrome from the Model's Own Beetlejuice collection soon.

What do you think? Have you tried any of these Femme Couture Lip Luster glosses before? I'm going to have to go back and see if there are any other cool duochromes in that display!
