This lip gloss is a pretty pop of pink, subtle enough for everyday wear but bright enough to be noticed. When I first pulled the applicator out, I worried the gloss would feel sticky (always a concern with lip glosses!) because it looked heavier, but on application, I was happy to find it wasn't sticky or overly heavy, and it went on really smoothly. And it lasted really well! For all that it's a gloss, the "balm" part in the product name is doing some heavy lifting too because my lips feel moisturized and soft. The Berry Pop color is pretty true to the product photo here, just maybe a little more red in the undertone. I will definitely purchase again, and it would make a cute gift too. Natasha Denona kindly gave me this lip gloss balm for free so that I could review it.

I was gifted this lip gloss for my honest and unbiased review. For the most part I really love it. The Positives: The texture is great and almost buttery without being sticky - a nice surprise with a lip gloss. With a workaround, it even has color staying power (I apply a thin layer under my final setting spray application and then reapply a shine coat of gloss after setting spray is dry.) When I reapply the gloss over time, there are no tacky or buildup issues. Lastly, and honestly probably most importantly: unlike with other balms, my lips feel genuinely stronger and more hydrated even after this has worn off by the end of the day. For the first time I can remember with a lip gloss, I'm not left with dry cracked lips and endless loops of reapplication mixed with other hydration solutions. I actually haven't even used my bedtime lip mask once since I started using this gloss. 🤷🏻‍♀️🥳 The Drawbacks I don't love the way this color translates on me. But that's my fault not a fault of the gloss. It's coming off more "orange" than "purple/berry" like shown in the image. Again, my own fault for choosing this color but worth noting for anyone buying it online rather than in person. Also unless you find a hack that works for you like I did, the staying power of this may not be for you. Lastly I wish the bottle were more long/thin shaped to fit into a smaller "go out" bag more easily, but again…first world problems lol. Verdict: I'm very glad I tried this lip gloss and I'll absolutely go and try to find a color to purchase that I like better with my skin tone.

I wear both lip gloss and balm regularly, and Hy-Gloss Tinted Lip Gloss Balm has quickly become a new favorite. It applies smoothly and evenly with one swipe thanks to the large doefoot applicator, and the formula isn't overly thick or goopy. The color is somewhere between sheer and opaque, and the Fresh Mauve shade provides a nice wash of color, giving me a glossy 'my lips but better' look. I especially like how hydrating this lip gloss balm is, and the fact that it isn't sticky or tacky. I can easily wear this shade during the day or night to give my lips a juicy burst of color, and I'm looking forward to grabbing more shades of Hy-Gloss.

I loved this Natasha Denona Gloss Balm in Berry Pop. I would say it's a hybrid of a Lip Oil and a Lip Gloss, with long lasting moisture and shine without being sticky. It has a buildable color but on my darker lips it is a beautiful wash of sheer berry pink. I do notice build up around the applicator entrance but I haven't had any leaking so far. With the amount of product and a little going a long way, this will definitely be a long lasting staple in a routine
