Just Not It

Let me start out by saying that I *wanted* to really like this. But, there were too many things that were not quite right that all together make this a bad lipgloss. If any one element (-ish) of the following issues had been changed, my review would be very different. - it is *super* opaque - it is... THICK - the color is not flattering - it comes in a squeeze tube (NOT a doe-foot applicator) Had this been a sheer gloss, then this could have worked really well in the squeeze tube, and this color would have been fine. Had this been a different color, the thickness and opaqueness would have worked (though it still would need the applicator changed). As you may have been able to guess, I ended up using this as a topper with a dark lip liner, which looked okay. But without a topper, it is extremely streaky - I could not get a smooth and seamless application for the life of me. And, the color was SO bad for me that adding another color with a liner was necessary. As for the plumping, the gloss was definitely minty, but I didn't see any difference in my lip size (then again, that is not something I look for in a gloss, so it could just be that I am not attuned to this type of change in my lips). Overall, if you want to try out the lipgloss, I would recommend one of the sheerer options and pass on any of the opaque colors unless you can test them in person and determine that the color will indeed work for you.
