I received this gloss from Born Pretty and I loved the colour in the packaging so was excited to break it out and try it. This colour reminded me so much of Macs Candy Yum Yum so I thought I would give it a go and see what I thought. I'm not much of a pink lip lover but there is the odd few I like so I do like to keep testing the water with them as I always love a bright pink lip on others in the Spring/Summer time. With this being a gloss rather than a lipstick I knew it would be a lot more sheer than a lipstick, which is a great way to edge my way in with a new colour.
This gloss was a lot more pigmented than I expected, some of them available are so sheer you can barely see the colour. It's just enough pink for my to try out as it's not too bright and it also quite build able (just incase I do get brave with it). I found this to last around 2 hours as with it being a gloss it does tend to come off when drinking or eating, but it does leave a nice sheen to it once some of the colour wears off. It's also really refreshing on the lips and doesn't make them sticky or dry!
There was quite a few colours to choose from that range from different tones of pinks, reds and orange colours. It was quite hard to choose a colour, but I thought a bright pink would be adventurous! This is only £1.99 from Born Pretty, so it's pretty on par with MUA lip glosses and Makeup Revolution glosses.
There is also discount on any full price items with the discount code TSH10, so a great reason to grab one of the colours!

No I didn't either, the revlon ones don't have this much pigment xx
DeleteWow this looks lovely, I’m not sure I’d be confident enough to wear such a bright shade as I don’t know if it would suit me, but I do like that this doesn’t leave the lips sticky, fab review :)

Bright pinks always scare me, but this doesn't seem so bad cause it's still not as bold as some lipstick xx
