PROS: Probably would last well because it was pretty sticky. SPF.


CONS: At first the smells is okay, but it wears on you. Strangely too sweet. And I don't normally mind sweet, but this is nauseating.


ALTERNATES: I much prefer Revlon glosses in the drug store instead.

Another hit from TheBalm....

I wanted a simple clear gloss... not too sticky, not too shiny, not to sparkly... and this hits ALL those marks. Not to mention it has a terrific scent (banana strawberry but i get more banana) that doesnt last too long, or taste funny.... and it seriously hydrates my lips while lasting a lot longer than you'd expect from the light texture.... and it has the bonus of spf (altho i dont really recall my lips ever getting sunburnt).

It has a small brush applicator which i like... especially if i apply over a color because you can wipe the brush better than a slanted sponge applicator anyway.... and not leave a color residue...

I'm really very pleased w/it... and would absolutely recommend it.
Just a great lite textured gloss.
