Red Apple Lipstick Reviews, Accolades, Honors, Mentions and Raves!

They're intensely moisturizing. It feels like I put on chapstick everytime I use the lipstick. It kinda tastes like it too with a nice vanilla-ish flavor. Wow! Even before going gluten free I don't think I've used a lipstick that seemed so similar to chapstick. I loved the feel. They're long lasting. I'll put my lipstick on in the morning before school and it's still there a few hours later! Love that!

When we had the chance to put Red Apple Lipstick in the hands of Lauren-Lucille, The Celiac Diva herself, we jumped! Here is what she had to say about it!

... WOW. My jaw dropped when I put the Red! Lipstick on. It's AMAZING. It's bright, strong, bold and just divine. I have finally found my perfect red lipstick and I could not be more thrilled. For a bold shimmer, I put on the Ruby Glass Gloss. I LOVE THIS COLOR!!! Love. Love. Love.

Here's the Bridesmaid Lip gloss. I LOVE pink. So it's really cool that you can get a pink shimmer with this bright gloss. Another combination I tried was the Crush On Me Lipstick with this gloss for even stronger "hot pink" look. Awesome.

After checking out all these colors, I will totally be rocking Red Apple Lipsticks. This company covers a lot a awesome shades.

truly, this company has lovely colors, great shimmer, great customer service and great pricing. I can tell from my interaction with them that they are passionate about their company and being gluten/ paraben free- I'm digging that. ...

Jeana Rick, a prominent makeup artist in Louisiana and writer for Makeup Talk Forums decided she wanted to try herself some Red Apple Lipstick. We were happy to oblige. Jeana was sent a couple of colors she requested to try out and after trying them, she voted them "The Best Red Lipstick Ever!"

Here's a few excerpts of her thoughts.

They glide on like butter delivering an instant feeling of conditioning and hydration thanks to their vitamin and mineral enriched formula that is paraben, gluten and allergen free.

... the color payoff is fantastic. I generally wear a lip liner under my lipstick to help improve the duration of wear and intensity of color. This step is not necessary with Red Apple Lipstick. The color applies true and opaque and adheres well for long wear...

... The colors are rich, saturated and opaque. Now, let's talk packaging. I'm a sucker for cute and stylish presentation of product. Red Apple Lipstick offers a simplistic and sleek package in silver with the lid having a brushed metal finish and the applicator having a high mirror shine finish. The packaging is very retro in feel and design which equates to a small compact size container with a very full size product inside....

...All the way around Red Apple Lipstick is winner for me. I don't say this lightly or without having considered every aspect of formulation, design, color and wear. I am brutally honest if my review of products and would highly recommend this one...

Jeana was kind enough to place a review in two spots on the web. On her cosmetic blog and on Makeup talk.

THANKS JEANA!

We are so fortunate. We were contacted by Nikki Hess, , NY Beauty Products Examiner for Examioner.com for a product evaulation as they were doing a story on gluten free beauty products. After a lengthy phone call from Nikki at examiner.com we decided that she should evaulate our products in person. She stated she was going to evaluate all kinds of gluten free products and that we would see if Red Apple Lipstick cut the mustard.

Here is a link to her entire article with some excerpts below.

The best gluten-free lipstick, skincare, and haircare products

Jay Adam Harper, the mastermind behind Red Apple Lipstick, wanted to do lipstick and lip gloss right. He wanted to put out excellent products that were made of natural ingredients and are actually good for women to wear on their lips. After all, you're likely to ingest lip glosses and lipstick when you eat and drink, so you don't want to put anything on your lips that's laden with bad-for-you chemicals, and those who cannot tolerate gluten can get sick from wearing (and ingesting) lip products that contain gluten. Jay enlisted the help of the best American cosmetic chemists, who at first weren't sure they could create high-quality lipsticks and glosses that didn't contain gluten. It took two years, but they made it work, and the resulting products are truly fabulous. "If I didn't tell you this product was gluten-free, you wouldn't know the difference," says Jay, and he's absolutely right.

There are many luxurious lipsticks on the market--Red Apple Lipsticks feel and look as good as those, but Red Apple products don't include gluten, parabens, or allergens, and they're enhanced with (gluten-free, of course) Vitamin E and shea butter. My favorite picks: Red Apple Lipstick's "Red!" lipstick is the perfect red for all skin tones. And yes, it's so awesome that it's totally deserving of an exclamation point in its name. It goes on smoothly and feels creamy and hydrating on the lips. It has great pigmentation and staying power, too. In the mood for a shimmery gloss instead? Their Ruby Slippers lip gloss gives lips a ton of shine and sparkle--you don't even have to click your heels three times and say "There's no place like home" to get it, either! Just visit RedAppleLipstick.com to check out these and other shades of high-quality lipsticks and lip glosses. You have nothing to lose--if you don't like their product, they'll refund your money. But Jay is thrilled that to date he has never had to give out a refund because he's had 100% customer satisfaction.

... I LOVE it! I love the colors, I love how it stays on my lips, I love how it smells, I love how it feels, I love how it looks… I love it. :D And that goes for both the lipstick and the gloss. Now, to be honest, I've never personally been a huge lipstick fan. It just never seems to last all that well and I've never really found a color that was awesome enough to bear with reapplying it. But I have been a bit concerned about the "lack" of gluten free lipstick that stays. I've tried a few other types (though I haven't reviewed them all), but they always soak in like tinted lipbalm. Which, you know, is OK in some cases. But it's not lipstick. And there are far too many lipstick gals around for there not to be good gluten free lipstick. But now… Not only have you proven that there IS fabulous gluten free lipstick out there, I think you've made me a lipstick convert. LOL!

You should have seen how all the girls in my family hovered around when I opened the package. None of them are lipstick girls (yet… :P ), but the lipgloss vanished out of my hands moments after I removed it from the envelope. They've been wearing it every time we've gone out since! And I have to ask them to get it out of their purses for me! Looks like I may be ordering some for Christmas presents this year… LOL!

I am really excited about your products and can't wait to share my review. Red Apple Lipstick is officially a permanent staple in my makeup bag. :D

Jay, I got my lipgloss and lipstick in the mail yesterday! I put them on right away ( I am a makeup artist and certified makeup junkie while not doing my day job!) I LOVE them! good job! The consistency of the products is right on and they weren't dry or tacky. Where should I send a pic of me wearing them? Thanks again! You have a great product on your hands. I am definitely going to be raving about this one to my makeup artist friends!

Jay, Everything arrived great! The colors are even more amazing in person!

Jay this color is a huge hit at our office! A girl from our production team would LOVE to have the OMG red. Let me know if this is ok with you!

Looks HOT!

Red Apple Lipstick is based in Houston, but only available online. Their lipsticks and glosses are amazing! The reasons I like them are as follows:

1. They are paraben, allergen and gluten free. Parabens have been found in breast cancer tumors, so why would anyone want to use make-up filled with it? Not me, and I agree that there must be a link between breast cancer and parabens from all the research that has been published on the subject. Gluten free is also important, especially for people who suffer from Celiac disease. I never knew how many products and food contain glutens! Glad to know that Red Apple Lipstick isn't one of them.

2. Red Apple will refund your purchase price if you are not happy with their red lipsticks. No drug store brand will do that, and I cannot tell you how many times I have bought a lipstick that looked good under the store's fluorescent lighting and got home and the color was wrong wrong wrong! If a color you like online doesn't look like what you hoped it would once it's delivered to you, simply return it. Get your money back or exchange it.

3. They have a lipstick exchange program. If you have a lipstick you don't want at home, used or not, send it to Red Apple Lipstick and they will send you one of theirs. They do this because they know that once you try their product, you'll be hooked.

4. Red Apple Lipstick colors are amazingly beautiful. I'm more of a lip gloss girl, and their lip glosses are sparkly yet still appropriate for an adult woman. The lipsticks are long lasting, not sticky, and keep my lips hydrated. They are infused with vitamin E and are silky smooth.

5. Two words: Free Shipping. Red Apple Lipstick does not charge a shipping fee. Most online lipstick companies will waive the shipping charge, but only if you spend a minimum of at least $60. Red Apple Lipstick does not have a shipping fee even if you only buy one item. Their customer service cannot be beat.

Five good reasons that I am completely in love with Red Apple Lipstick as a company, as a quality lipstick and lip gloss, and as a product that spoils my lips! I've always been a make-up junkie, and Red Apple caters to this!
