90% OF CHICKS DIG IT
I bought 3 (confessions, 80's, and todays the day) through their website a few months back, when they had a sale.
I had been intrigued for a while now, and thought this was the perfect time, seeing as it couldn't cost too much and I wouldn't cry if it didn't live up to my standards, and I would at least be left with a cool keychain.
First to note is that for the most part, they are all quite sheer.
Which isn't too bad, but I loved the colour of Confessions, and wouldn't have minded it to be more pigmented.
Second is that you really have to twist the applicator to be able to put it on your lips (I think this was because they wanted to ensure that the product lasts well).
Third, the price isn't all that great for those who are used to buying cheap glosses, but they are non-sticky and very friendly for the lips. So really you are paying to not ingest all sorts of gross chemicals.
But in the end, I may be tempted to buy another when I use mine up. At the very least if I buy it through Sephora I can get points XD
Bought this lipgloss a few weeks ago, and have really enjoyed using it! The colours are all gorgeous, and it really does seem to moisturize your lips while you wear it. The product is known for its moisturizing ingredients. Product does not feel too sticky or tacky.
Packaging is adorable as well!
Colour does not last more than most lipglosses, although did not seem to last noticeably less either.
Jennifer and Fiona Lees from Toronto were in the search of the perfect lipgloss - aren't we all! They decided if they couldn't find it, they would develop their own. After years of working with a cosmetic manufacturer they developed a formula using only the finest ingredients to produce a high-shine, moisturizing lip-gloss.
What really caught my eye when I saw this product is the packaging. Balmshell has developed the most unique, creative packaging, I think I have ever seen. Each of the 10 glosses has its own floating art story inside - kind of like those pens you can get.
DARLING YOU LOOK FABULOUS
Sheer Hot Cherry Red ~ for those fabulous nights on the town!
Illustration description
This is a story of how a Balmshell prepares for a night out on the town. The story begins with a woman wrapped in her favorite plush terry cloth towel as she is getting ready for the big night. She then glides behind a changing screen and when she comes out, "Ta-Da!" she is effortlessly dressed and ready. She looks into the mirror and thinks to herself, "Darling you look fabulous!"
Each amusing story aims to celebrate the inner goddess that exists in all women.
When finished with your lip gloss unscrew the "float art" top and screw it into the keychain component provided in the packaging.
So far these delightful art glosses are only available in Canada and the UK but Balmshell will be opening their online store in the next little while so keep your eyes peeled.
