Review: Tony Moly Petite Bunny Gloss Bar (#08 Neon Yellow)

Tony Moly Petite Bunny Gloss Bar (#08 Neon Yellow) (7g)

There are 9 different colors in total. 6 of them are fruity scented and the other 3 are mild, natural scented (pretty much scent-less to me actually...).

And I got mine in #08 Neon Yellow.

More information about the Petite Bunny Gloss Bar~:

Description:

Directions: Twist-up to about 3~5mm and lightly apply to lips.

It comes in a retractable stick. The bottom of the stick is twistable so you can twist the bottom to get more product.

Note: Don't twist up too much product because once the product got twisted out, it can't be twisted back into the stick. You have to push it back instead. -_-

Consistency & Color:

Although it says it's a gloss bar, I find it like more towards a balm, like a tinted lip balm. It's not as balmy as Nivea lip balm though. It leaves a slight glossy look but it's not as glossy as a lip gloss or a lip balm. The color of #08 is pretty interesting! It's yellow in the tube but when apply on lips, it turns into a very lovely shade of pink. The color is pretty sheer(low pigmentation) and can be built up but only slightly.

Here are the swatches:

The color is very sheer however, it is buildable. You can compared the color of 1 swipe with the color of 4 swipes.

Scent:
It's very, very mild and natural scent. Not much fragrance actually...

Moisturizing Power:

I find it not as moisturizing as Nivea lip balm. If you have dried and chapped lips like I do, few hours after application, the color kind of runs into the cracks and makes the dried and chapped lips looks more obvious. That's what happened to me so what I usually do is that I will put on a layer of Nivea lip balm on my lips prior to application of this Petite Bunny Gloss Bar. On a positive note, it's not very drying like a lipstick. The moisturizing level is somewhere in between a lipstick and a lip balm.

Staying Power:

The color does lasts except if you eat or drink. Yes, it does comes off pretty easily when you eat or drink. I usually have to re-apply it after eating or drinking.

Likes:
- 2-in-1, lip balm + tint formula = tinted lip balm
- the color! *gorgeous*
- color is sheer and build-able
- the adorable packaging!
- light, natural scent
- not very drying like a lipstick
- easy to glide on lips
- portable and lightweight
- not sticky

Dislikes:
- lousy twistable function; once the product got twisted-up, it can't be twisted back into the stick!
- not as glossy as Nivea lip balm or a lip gloss
- emphasizes on dried and chapped lips

Neutral:
- moisturizes but not as moisturizing as Nivea lip balm
- color does comes off easily when eating or drinking

Verdict: So, I got the #08 Neon Yellow mainly because it doesn't have too much scent. I actually hate sweet fruity scented lips product. I prefer a mild and natural scented or scent-less lips product~~ Currently, this is one of my favorite lips product. The color is not too bold and it gives a soft natural look which is why I like it so much! Even though it's not as moisturizing as I would like it to be, by applying a layer of Nivea lip balm prior to application of this gloss bar will fix the problem.

People who like a soft and sheer natural looking lip color, you might want to give this a try.

Review: Bourjois Effet 3D Lip Gloss

Bourjois Effet 3D Lip Gloss (20 Rose Symphonic)

Got mine in 20 Rose Symphonic

A glamorous and shimmery pink lip gloss.

Consistency and Color:
Looks kind of gooey in the tube and on the brush but... it's not when apply on the lips! What makes me so fond of this gloss is because it's totally not sticky at all! It's easy to apply on lips and it does not dry up the lips!♥ The color is between sheer to opaque shimmery baby pink and it can be build-able.

Scent:
Mild sweet fragrance

Likes:
- not sticky!
- 8 HRS hydrate;  moisturizing, totally not drying at all!
- fine micro glitter; glossy, glittery and shimmery~
- plump up the lips
- pretty color
- color is build-able
- the applicator; easy to apply
- glides on smoothly
- the scent
- comes in a variety of shades

Dislikes:
- wear off during drinking and eating

This is the only brand of lip gloss which I like and use it quite often. I have tried other brands of lip gloss before but well, this is the only one that I find it not sticky and unlike some other lip glosses, this does not have a strong sweet or fruity fragrance. Honestly, I'm a person who don't like flavored lip gloss/lip balm but I'm fine with the scent of Bourjois lip gloss. At least, it's not overpowering.

Overall, I love this lip gloss and imma getting another shade from this brand~ There are a variety of shades to choose from so... people who likes glittery, shimmery lip gloss but dislikes sticky and strong flavored lip gloss, try this. :D

Review: Y.E.T Shinning Mirror Ball Ultra Glitter Lip Gloss

Y.E.T Shinning Mirror Ball Ultra Glitter Lip Gloss (9g)

Let's look at the packaging box~ Isn't it pretty and adorable? I really like the design printed on the packaging box~ It's full of colors which makes me feel really happy just by looking at it~ That's my first impression of the product when I first received it. :D

Moving on to the main object — the lip gloss!

The lip gloss comes in a plastic bottle tube with a black plastic twist-off cap. As you can see, the name of the product is printed on the tube as well as a doll print. I think the doll print is actually the mascot(?) of Y.E.T, okay I'm not really sure but anyway, there are 3 of them and all of them look different. Lol.

I have to say that the doll looks a little scary to me. Well, perhaps it only affect me~ Honestly, I'm really afraid of dolls. They just look creepy... -_-" 

Next....,

It comes in 4 colors — #01 Chandelier, #03 Sparkling Red, #04 Flash Rose and I got it in #02 Pink Champagne.

Just like most of the lip glosses out there, it comes with a sponge applicator which makes it easy for application.

Here's the swatch~:

The color is so gorgeous with tiny glitters, I mean really tiny, and the color can be semi-sheer to intense shade if you layer it on. Yes, you can build up the color; it's buildable~ :D 

Scent: 

It has a strawberry scent similar to the scent of My Beauty Diary Strawberry Yogurt Mask. It smells like Strawberry Pocky too~~~ 

Consistency: 

It's glossy without being too thick. For me, I find it quite sticky even though I only applied a thin layer... If I were to rate the stickiness between 1(not tacky) to 10(very tacky), I would probably rate it a 7 or 8? [...] On the positive side, it's easy to apply on lips. 

Size:

Net weight: 9g

Lip Gloss bottle tube size: 10.8cm x 1.6cm 

Convenient to carry it around because of it's portable size.

Overall Conclusion: I personally dislike strawberry. I don't eat it neither would I want to apply a gloss that has a strawberry scent on my lips. If you ask me if I will purchase other colors, I would say no because I dislike sticky lip gloss(not even a slight tackiness...) so even though I really like the color and the packaging, I would not want to purchase the rest of the colors. :( People who wouldn't mind the lip gloss scent and the consistency/texture, you can go ahead and grab this. :)
