Essence Glossy Lip Balm in Mint Drop

My Thoughts

This lip balm comes in small plastic tube containing 8ml of product with angled nozzle and screw cap. The nozzle help balm to spread evenly on the lips. The texture is thick and creamy containing a lot of shimmer with no specific color. The smell of this balm is fresh, sweet and minty but not overwhelming but very light. The balm is very light weight and moisturizing.

This particular lip balm is more of colorless with shine which is why i choose to pick this one then other colored options because some times you just want your lips to look hydrated and shiny. You can even use this lip balm on your matte lipstick to give them some glossy effect and keep hydrated specially in winters.The moisturizing factor is good, it will make your lips soft and hydrating as long as it is on your lips. It will ultimately be absorbed in lips leaving little shimmer behind. The staying power is ok, without eating it can last 2 to 3 hours which is good for lip balm in such price.

Overall this lip balm is transparent colored, glossy and hydrating with shimmery effect. Comes in beautiful little cute packaging which travel friendly and angled nozzle help balm spread evenly.
