I've been using LipFusion for many years. It always works for me! It never disappoints! The scent of each one is mildly pleasant and I love the tingle! I know it's working! And I don't notice a distinct flavor. Plus it plumps my lips for about 2-3 hours and looks great on! I use a lipliner first, then a reverse liner outside of it so as to prevent migration of the gloss. I find all of the colors look great on! Sometimes I use the clear LipFusion XL and then just any favorite tube of lipstick over it. This color, Belle, is very pretty on! It's pricey but well worth it!
