My Experience with LipIce Pearly Pink Gloss:
Let’s begin with the packaging of the lip-gloss. The lip-gloss comes housed in a cardboard packaging. This packaging has the ingredients list and other necessary details about the product. This is a dual ended lip-gloss that consists of two different shades. The lip-gloss tube is a dual ended clear plastic tube that contains two shades of lip-glosses, each at its one end. The shade name is mentioned at the base of each end on a simple white sticker. The middle part of the lip-gloss is pearly white in color and looks flimsy. This part has the brand name embossed on it with gold fonts. This middle part has two applicators on each of its sides for both the lip-glosses. The applicator is a regular doe foot type and has an average quality. The applicator picks very little amount at a time. So, I need to dip again and again to apply the gloss all over my lips. Overall, the packaging is fine and leak proof but it is not any fancy or luxurious.
Now, let’s talk about the shades. This lip-gloss is named “Pearly Pink”. It has two shades namely Gorgeous Pink and Soft Pink. The shades are quite different and are easily differentiable. One shade is darker while the other one is too sheer that it just looks like a clear glittery lip-gloss. I actually loved the shade “Ruby Pink”. Hence, I picked this “Pearly Pink” and “Sparky Orange”. But these two have really disappointed me a lot. Let’s find out how?
The shade “Gorgeous Pink” is a light pink lip-gloss with silver colored glitters in it. These shimmers are quite big and are very much noticeable on the lips. They look chunky on the lips. The lip-gloss gives a very sheer wash of color to the lips making its glitter pretty much noticeable. The lip-gloss is poor in terms of pigmentation. The color does not become noticeable on the lips. It looks like I have applied a clear glittery lip-gloss. It does not hide pigmented lips at all. I remember that I used to apply such shades in the past as I was not bold enough to carry colored lip-glosses but I am no more a fan of glittery lip-glosses like this.
The second shade is “Soft Pink” that looks almost like a clear glittery lip-gloss. This shade also has silver shimmers in it that looks chunky on the lips and a little difficult to remove. It cannot be carried alone on the lips. All I could do with this shade is just pair it on top of favorite lipstick for s super glossy look. Being a clear lip-gloss, it does not impart any color to the lips. Hence, those pigmented lips look ugly. They have named this shade “Soft Pink” but actually this shade has no hints of pink in it.
The lip-gloss has a funny candy like fragrance that might be bothering for some, as it quite strong and stays for long. But, I like how it smells actually! The lip-gloss does not have any taste. It sets to a nice glossy sheen that looks nice and natural on the lips. The texture of the lip-gloss is nice and smooth. It is creamy and glides all over the lips, without causing any dragging. The formula is lightweight and feels comfortable on the lips. It does not have that thick or waxy feel. It does not feel sticky on the lips. This lip-gloss is nice and moisturizing. My lips stay moisturized for quite long. I have dry lips and my lips stay moisturized and nourished for long after applying this lip-gloss. It provides some sort of hydration to my lips. The lip-gloss has the tendency to transfer like most of the lip-glosses. It does not bleed or smudge much.
The lip-gloss stays for some 2-3 hours on my lips with a little fading and it loses its shine with time. The lip-glosses do not survive even light meals and fades away completely leaving the shimmers behind. These are a little difficult to remove and look chunky on the lips. Hence, it requires reapplication after meals.
