Lush The Kiss Lip Gloss Review

Hi friends,

Along with Lush The Kiss lip scrub, I picked up its namesake lip gloss too. Let me go ahead and share with you how this cutie fared 🙂

Lush The Kiss Lip Gloss

Packaging:

The lip gloss comes in a silver tin packaging. This packaging is quite different from the other lip glosses that I have used earlier.  Most of the lip glosses I have tried are usually either in a tube or in a bottle with an applicator. The tin is small and sturdy and can be easily kept in a handbag. However the fact that I have to dip my fingers everytime to apply the lip gloss makes it a little unhygienic. Similar to Lush The Kiss lip scrub, the cover has a charming picture of “the kiss.” The lip gloss has a lovely baby pink color with shimmer to it.  The fragrance of the lip gloss is very mild and smells fruity, more like strawberries.The lip-gloss has a creamy and soft texture.

Price:

$7.95 for 0.3oz (10 g).

Ingredients:

Lush The Kiss Lip Gloss

My Experience with Lush The Kiss Lip Gloss:

The lip gloss contains moisturizing contents like Shea Butter, castor oil, Cupuacu butter and glycerin along with almond oil. So initially, I tried putting the lip gloss on my lips without applying any lip balm. The lip gloss is thick during initial application, which does not go on the lips very easily. However as per the product’s claim, the shea butter melts and the lip gloss spreads easily.  Though the lip gloss contains hydrating ingredients, my lips did not feel very moisturized. So presently, I am using the Lush lip gloss over my Nivea lip balm.

The lip gloss gives a soft pink sheen to my lips. It adds a beautiful color to the lips. The lip gloss gives a glossy finish to the lips because of the shimmer particles that it contains. The lip gloss color would be suitable for all skin tones. The pink sheen does get transferred on articles.

The lip gloss contains Guarana seed powder to plump lips. However, I did not notice any difference in my lip’s texture.  I usually need a very small amount of the lip gloss for application, which is enough to provide a soft baby pink shine to lips.  When I apply the lip gloss, there is a very mild sweet taste which is due to the presence of agave syrup and mandarin oil.  The lip gloss also has a very faint strawberry fragrance, which fades away very soon.

The major problem that I am facing with this lip gloss is that it requires constant reapplication. The lip gloss hardly stays for an hour or two. Another problem with the lip gloss is its packaging. I have to keep fiddling to close and open the tin box, which is not an easy task for a clumsy person like me 🙂

I found this lip gloss as a good add-on to apply with my regular lip balm. Since this lip gloss is self preserving, it would be lasting me a long time.

Pros of Lush The Kiss Lip Gloss:

  • Provides a gorgeous pink sheen to lips after application.
  • The baby pink color, which the lip gloss imparts would be suitable for all skin tones.
  • Good add-on top of lip balm for everyday usage.
  • Small amount is enough to give decent color.
  • Mild fruity fragrance, which fades away.
  • Lip gloss is initially thick on application, but spreads easily on the lips.

Cons of Lush The Kiss Lip Gloss:

  • Has a tin packaging, which makes it bothersome while opening and closing the box.
  • Have to dip finger in the lip gloss for application as it does not have any applicator. (I tried using a lip brush, but it did not work well either).
  • Lip gloss requires constant reapplication, as it does not stay for more than 2 hours.
  • Did not notice significant plumping effect on lips from the presence of Guarana seed powder.
  • Pricey for the amount of lip gloss.
  • Did not find any hydrating benefits from the moisturizing ingredients present.
  • The lip gloss gets easily transferred to glasses or cups.

IMBB Rating:

2.5 out of 5.

Would I Repurchase Lush The Kiss Lip Gloss?

The lip gloss is a good enhancement to my regular lip balm, but I would not miss it if I don’t buy it again. All the Lush lip balms come in a tin box and I am not comfortable using it, so not picking anymore of these for now.
