I got this from Sephora recently as a 100-pt Perk. I had no idea what to expect, but thought it would be cute to try!
The shade I got is Plumberry Pop which is kind of a bright pink-berry colour. It's very pretty and not too warm or cool toned.
These are described as a lip balm and "color-stain". The texture looks like a very rich, soft, hydrating lipstick but the formula feels like a smooth, glossy lip balm. It melts into the lips and feels very comfortable, more so than many other lip products.
The coolest thing about this product is how much colour payoff it has! The colour is rich and vibrant when first applied, and although the top layer of product transfers and eventually wears off pretty quickly, it leaves the lips evenly stained. I love that this feels so comfortable, like I'm wearing lip balm, AND I don't have to worry too much about it because although it will wear off, it still leaves a pretty colour behind that lasts pretty long.
My only complaint about this product is the scent. It may just be the deluxe sample size that I have or a bad batch, but my product smells like plastic. The smell isn't too strong and seems to wear off, but it definitely takes away from a really amazing lip product.
The packaging on these are very durable - I don't have to worry about the cap coming off in my purse. I really love the oil-balm formula, it feels so amazing and would be perfect for those who like lipstick but want something hydrating and easy to wear.
I would definitely recommend bareMinerals Pop of Passion Lip Oil-Balms!
