I ordered the shade 50E, expecting it to be nude. In reality, it turned out to be a pleasant lip balm without any color, with a small amount of glitter. It moisturizes well and serves as a nice alternative to regular lipsticks.
Semi-translucent, barely tinted on the lips, with a shimmer. It moisturizes the lips quite well and is convenient to use.
The balm is pressed, has a pleasant texture, moisturizes the lips nicely, and the color matches the photo.
I started painting and it broke right away.
I came across this brand a long time ago, and I have liked all of their products. This balm is no exception.
Everything is good, the dark rich color in the stick on the lips is semi-transparent, just what I needed. However, it seems that it is not suitable for summer because the stick clearly melts even in its packaging and solidifies in a new shape. When applied, it breaks and has a gel/jelly consistency - it is impossible to apply without a brush. The color is nice, but I need to see how it will perform in cold weather.
I ordered gloss 10A from the website, and it's not bad. However, since the shade is light, it resembles more of a lip balm. But overall, I am satisfied.
A complete disappointment, not worth even half of the advertised price.
I really liked the shine, it stays on the lips for quite a long time. The color intensity was adjusted by the amount applied (I used shade 20B, blackberry): from light to intense. It doesn't dry out the lips. I deduct one star for the packaging: the surface of the pencil is scratched, and the cap is not secured with a film/tape to the base of the pencil.
I really liked this lipstick, it reminds me of a tint - you can also apply it for a "natural" effect, but you can clearly see the shine of a balm. When applied generously on the lips, it greatly enhances them, and with my blackberry shade (20B), my lips look simply stunning! Let's talk about the scent separately - sweet, pleasant blackberry aroma. However, the lasting power is not exactly pleasing, so I carry a pencil in my bag and touch up when needed. Overall, I highly recommend it!
The impressions are conflicting. I was expecting a more intense color, but it applies unevenly and tends to smudge a little, also has a slight taste of lipstick...
However, at the same time, it has a pleasant shine/balm and moisturizes well. It's my favorite lipstick format - a pencil.
I really liked the gloss. You can vary its intensity, from a light shine resembling a hygienic lipstick to a full-color effect. It makes the lips more defined and has good staying power, leaving minimal traces on cups. However, personally, it slightly dries out my lips after some time of application, but other than that, it's great!
