It started with a kiss and ended with... All romances start with one, so why shouldn't it be the most life-changing kiss you've ever had? 'It Started' is a tinted balm that makes your lips an enticing crimson red, sure to lure your prince (or princess) charming from the path they had mistakenly wandered off on! Our red apple, cinnamon and white chocolate flavour is delicious.

It's a perfect blend of spice and sweetness, and it makes you think of candy apples. No one will be able to resist your tempting pout when you wear this, and kissing will swiftly follow.

Very disappointing

I was really excited to try this lip tint as I usually love this kind of product but the problems started just trying to open the container. If you have longer nails, the squat container can be really tricky to open, especially the first time.

Inside was an ultra bright paste with an extremely strong cinnamon smell. I tried applying just a small amount but the results were disastrous. It didn't apply evenly and was terribly patchy and spotty, despite having used a lip scrub before trying. And the colour? Well, 'clown-like' was my boyfriend's comment and I had to agree.

It's definitely not something I would use again - it just seemed like something wasn't quite right as the texture, colour and consistency all seemed to be off. Less 'tint' and more like 'circus paint' unfortunately.

The Big Kiss Off

I purchased a wee tin of this during Lush's Boxing Day sale for half the usual price. I probably should have read the reviews here first, but I loved the look of the packaging, and I loved the name, and I loved the idea of a crimson red tint.

Alas I did not love this at all.

Actually, to be fair, I still like the little tin, it's cute. But cute doesn't cut it when the tint is not mint.

On opening the tint I fell in love with the colour, so pretty, so red! But strangely enough on me it applied as being super pink, and not in a flattering way. More in a scary clown 'run for your life' way. I tried to apply less, but then it didn't really cover my lips properly and looked patchy, so it was a bit of a lose/lose situation.

Compounding matters was the scent... I expected it to be quite sweet and appley, but all I got was spice and I didn't enjoy that aroma on my lips or lingering up towards my nasal cavity.

I tried applying this tint a few times, but each time I ended up wiping it off and popping on a bit of lippy. I've since lost it (and I only got it at the beginning of January). I've no idea where it's gone, and I'm really not bothered that it's disappeared either. I think it's safe to say this falls into my 'not a favourite' category.

Not happy

I bought this after being told it would be moisturizing. If anything I found it drying. I did like the hint of color it gave but applying with your fingers feels a little messy when it is colored. I will be sticking with honey trap to keep my lips moisturized and more traditional lipsticks for when I want color.

Don't like this at all

I only used this a couple of times before giving up. The consistency is weird, it's very waxy and unpleasant. It's difficult to apply, I tried with a brush and with my fingers and neither worked. it does give a bit of a tint but its not the 'enticing crimson red' it promises - it looks more like worn off lipstick. Would not purchase again.

Are my lips meant to feel like they're burning?

I was sent this to review and I was so excited because I had always wanted to try this! Unfortunately though i was really disappointed which is a shame because I absolutely love Lush! The reason for the title is because for some reason whenever I applied it to my lips it felt as though they were burning, not a good feeling for a lip tint and yes I did try the kiss test haha and it passed, the colour wasn't as full as it was but it was still on and not smudged. When I first got it I really liked the smell because it was different, however though my boyfriend HATED it and when he kissed me he said it tasted like candle wax?

Tips: Only get a tiny amount on your fingers.

Lush - it started with a kiss

The smell is absolutely amazing! As soon as I opened it I could smell it. I absolutely loved the bright colour but was disappointed at how long it actually stayed in my lips. I was sent this product to review, but I don't think I would purchase the product my self.

feels like wax

I will start off by saying it smell wonderful and the colour looks amazing but that where it stops. It has impractical packaging, its much to thick, it does not blend well at all. It feels gritty and thick like candle wax. As for the tint, I would expect a tint to come out lighter and just tint your lips. It might be great for you but I personally will not buy or recommend this to anyone.

Tips: don't use lots

Not a favourite of mine

I got this at Xmas in one of their sales and was really excited because I also purchased the Santa Lip Scrub and loved it so thought this would be awesome.

Unfortunately, this wasn't for me. I'm not a huge red lip kind of gal as I don't think I suit it but with this being a tint I thought it would be only a hint of colour. There is a hint of a colour but not overly strong, to me it comes out more orange than red.

I have super dry lips too and and I found this extremely drying and no moisture at all. I also didn't think it smelt or tasted of apples and cinnamon.

Unfortunately if you have dry lips and you don't like orange tints on your lips then this may not be for you. Such a shame as I love most Lush products.

Dissappointed

Was so excited to try this as there was so much hype around it but was so disappointed. I couldn't stand the texture, it was waxy and kind of soft gritty? It's really hard to explain but it's just weird ! It wears off quick and apples as a washed out lipstick colour

Tips: Do not buy this product
