i got this lip gloss as gift for winning a contest in instagram. and i'm thrilled to try it since it's local brand and quite new in the game. the other items that i received as gifts are travel-size tinted moisturizer, eyeliner, and lip balm. okay.. their products that have several color options are lipglosses and lipsticks, so i'm glad that i got the lip gloss as gift and then i can buy the lipstick myself.
this is the description from their website: natural moisturizers, shea butter and jojoba oil, conditioning lips with every use. this lip gloss vibrant hues are made with hand-milled iron oxides and food-grade pigments and will be available in six universal and timeless shades. great for wearing alone for sheer vibrant gloss or layer with tour sweet n chic lipstick. it's formulated without parabens, sulfates, and phthalates. the color selection are pink rose, orange blossom, red rose, truffle, primrose and cherry blossom. and i got orange blossom.
the packaging: the lip glosses are inside a plastic tube with a slanted tip that screw down to the tube. and another top that must be pulled. it's quite confusing. at first i thought i have to screw the top, but i was wrong. i have to pull the top off. and then dispose the gloss from the slanted tip by squeezing the tube. though it's quite new to use lipgloss from plastic slanted tip, i think i prefer the old doe-foot applicator like the other lip glosses.
the smell: i have bad smelling sensor. i can't tell you what it is, but i think it's sweet. subtle though, so once you apply it on your lips, you can't smell it.
the color payoff: i don't have high hope about the color payoff since they are glosses. they are suppose to be sheer and don't last that long. but i have to say the color is quite opaque for a gloss. but the staying power is just so-so. one hour or two without eating and drinking, and surely faster if you eat and drink. orange blossom is orange in flesh, but not neon orange, more like coral-orange. softer on lips after application.
the application: well, with different application, it takes time to get used to it and disposing the right amount of the gloss.
the product: it's a little bit sticky after application, which almost all glosses like that. and it will be a little bit streaky if you dispose too many product. but i don't think it will be any problem if you re-apply it since it will disappear completely.
overall, this is a nice gloss with good color payoff. but i don't like sticky glosses. and since i'm not familiar yet with the slanted tip, i can use it as fast as i can, and being fast is the number one priority in my life right now (if i want to use makeup, that is..) so, i'm glad i got this as gift, but probably i won't buy the other color myself. i'm happy with this one. if you want to try nice glosses that won't make you broke, you can check this one. supporting local brand is another plus for you.
