A friend gave this to me as she knows I am constantly losing lip balms. I hadn't tried these before and thought the packaging (with its cute baby pink tube), looked pretty.
This smells really nice - kind of sweet but it isn't overpowering. The scent didn't last that long on my lips so that shouldn't be an issue if scents are something you dislike in lip balms.
Be warned though, that this lip balm has shimmer in it. I didn't realise until I had applied it. Personally I can't stand shimmer on my lips - this is just a personal preference for myself, although it can look amazing on other people.
The shimmer, however, isn't like glitter - it looks more like crushed pearls. The sheen is very frosty and pearl like - so if you like that look then you'll probably really like this. However, I really, really dislike that so this isn't a product I would ever purchase or reuse.
Pearl and shine! Is exactly what the packaging reflects beautifully. In fact, the colour of the lip balm all white and sparkly represents a shinny pearl perfectly. Although, the lap balm is pleasing to the eye I found the product was disappointing to a few of my other senses. Case in point, it has a waxy texture when applying (I prefer it to be smoother) and I used a lot as it doesn't wear for long. Additionally, the scent was either bland or didn't have one because it is not rememberable at all. Lastly, the look of the lip balm on me didn't really didn't suit me and my darkish complexion. Therefore, I do not like this product for the reasons that; it didn't suit me, it was all gone within 2 weeks, and i had to apply continuously as it didn't last really long or provide full overage.. However, if I had to recommend this to someone I'd say this lip balm would be suit to a person who is looking for a great lip moisturiser and has smaller lips.
