I received a sample Smoothie tint balm (in the Px R family--I'm a B/R in the lightest shade, Camellia) with my latest Px purchase. I'm not a huge fan of these kinds of tint balms as they are usually too sheer and taste too much like sunscreen, in my opinion. This one is no different. It's a nice bright, light pink (think punchy) in the tube. It goes on sheer and has a nice smoothie taste to it when first applied, but after a while that familiar tint balm sunscreen taste seeps through. Even though I am PPP, my lips are decently pigmented, so this color does nothing for me.

The packaging is nice, and it feels moisturizing, but I would not purchase this on my own. If you like these sorts of balms and you have lightly pigmented lips, give it a try.

Good fruity flavor, and it's a nice sheer, pinky punch color...I just wish it were less sticky.

I received a free sample tube of this lip gloss when I purchased my Flawless Skin concealer from Prescriptives.com. It smells delicious and is the perfect color! It's so hard for me to find a flattering lip color, I fell instantly in love with this gloss just for that. The shine is really sexy and you only need a tiny bit for maximum effect. It's a little sticky, but it's not bad once it warms on your lips, and I love that this gloss feels moisturizing enough that I don't miss my Burt's Bees. It's a little pricey for me, but given the quality, color, and the fact that a tube of it seems like it will last for ages, I would definitely purchase a full size. Highly recommended, but I wouldn't expect less from Prescriptives, I've fallen in love with almost all the products I've tried of theirs.

I love Prescriptives Tint Balms! I also have Mulberry and Punch.

Color: The color is sheer, because it is a tint but it adds just the right amount of color to your lips. I have very pigmented lips, and the light, pinkish clear shade still shows up on me.

Texture: Texture is very important to me when buying a gloss. I love the texture of this gloss, it is seriously one of the best that I've tried. It's kinda thick, but it does not feel icky on the lips, it's slippery but doesn't feel greasy at all. It's great! It doesn't leave your lips feeling numb either!

Price: I got this gloss for $14.50 at a Prescriptives counter in Dillard's. It is also $14.50 on the Prescriptives website and I belive at Macy's also.

Packaging: I love the bottle of this gloss! You can easily put it in your pocket or purse. It has a slanted tip for easy application.

I plan on purchasing more of these, like Sunburst and Sunrise.
