I'm not really big on lip pots where you need to use your fingers to apply the product, but, I guess the quality made up for the "icky"-ness of application. The colors are really natural. They're just right, not too shiny and sticky. I loved how it made my lips more plump than what they were. It is a little pricey than others but a little goes a long way and they were on sale for 2 for $15 in the store so that wasn't so bad. Aside from making me pretty, they worked great with moisturizing and protecting my kissers from the harsh winter weather. My lips stayed moisturized for four hours.
