My Experience with Wet n Wild Perfect Pout Gel Lip Balm Tease:
The Wet n Wild Perfect Pout Gel Lip Balm range offers an array of six different shades: Play, Shock, Rule, Tease, Love and Tell. All the shades look very beautiful and belong to colour families of pinks, oranges, reds and berry shades. The shades Play, Rule, Love and Shock have already been reviewed on the blog.
Packaging:
The lip balm comes housed inside a white cardboard box which contains all the details of the ingredients, shade name and product description. The body of the lip balm stick is black in colour and it closes with a plastic lid. The plastic lid closes with an audible click. The black body has a colour-coded band, which has the same colour as the lip balm.
The body of the lip balm looks really adorable. There is a twist-up mechanism for using this lip balm. Keeping the price point of a normal lip balm in mind, the price is a bit on the heavier side. Overall, the packaging is sturdy and travel-friendly.
Shade:
The shade “Tease” is a beautiful baby pink colour, which is perfect for adding a subtle pop of colour to the lips. This colour does not look too overpowering on the lips and is wearable on an everyday basis. Usually, college-going girls do not wear lipsticks to college and prefer something that adds a decent colour without making the makeup looking over-the-top. For such people, this range of tinted lip balms from Wet n Wild is a great option. This shade will suit all Indian skin tones well.
Pigmentation:
Pigmentation is not very rich for this lip balm. It just adds a slight tint to lips, which is better than wearing a transparent lip balm. Obviously, I do not expect a great colour payoff from this gel lip balm because it is not meant for that task. This gel lip balm adds a beautiful shine to lips which looks very gorgeous.
Since my lips are light pink in colour, this lip balm adjusts well to my lip colour and gives a very natural transparent finish that has lightish pink undertones. The smell of this lip balm is really pleasant. It has a fruity bubblegum kind of scent and I found no issues with it. The smell does not linger around and fades away gradually.
Texture:
The texture of this lip balm is very creamy because it has a gel formulation. This lip balm does not contain any shimmer particles. It glides easily on the lips and gives a soft, smooth finish. The lip balm feels very lightweight on the lips and does not feel sticky at all. It does not highlight the patches of your lips.
After applying this, my dry lips feel very hydrated and nourished. It also does the job of a lip gloss partially. This hydration lasts throughout the day. If you have extremely dry and chapped lips, scrub your lips before using this balm. This lip balm does not hide lip pigmentation completely. Also, it is not transfer-proof and has a tendency for the colour intensity to fade away if your lips touch any object.
Staying Power:
This lip balm is not very long staying. It stays for about 2-3 hours. It will not survive even light meals and the intensity fades away easily. You would definitely need reapplication with this lip balm. It just leaves behind a very light tint after it has faded away. Along with that, your lips feel soft and nourished.
Overall:
There are both pros and cons associated with this product. The low staying power and pigmentation of this product weigh down all the other benefits. However, if this is not an issue for you and you want a decent lip tint for healthy, glossy-looking lips, you can give this a try. In my case, I am not repurchasing it.
