What
Clinique Says About It:
“Tempt lips with a
soft cushion of colour that's not quite sheer, not quite opaque-just the
perfect happy medium. Loaded with mango and shea butters so lips feel comfortably
soft and smooth. Eight vibrant shades in all.”
My Experience:
I am a big fan of sheer lipsticks and tinted lip balms. I
have finished only two full coverage lipsticks till date but I finish sheer
lipsticks and lip balms very fast! And, therefore, I thought of trying these.
As you can see, these chubby sticks come in a pretty crayon
packaging. These chubby sticks have a twist up mechanism, so no product
wastage!
The shade “Mega Melon” is a very pretty peach shade with
micro gold shimmers that are responsible for the lovely sheen on the lips.
The texture is very silky and glides onto the lips easily.
The bullet is not fragile like the Oriflame Lip Crayon, which I have reviewed
HERE.
It does moisturize dry lips nicely but when it
wears down, I again reach for my lip balm. The coverage is sheer-medium for my
non-pigmented lips but for pigmented lips, the coverage is going to be sheer.
The finish is a lip balm like but with a little more pigment and sheen.
Although not glossy!
It stays for around
just 1 hour and wears down unevenly. Sigh! I’ll finish this till the next week
for sure!

I wanted to buy “Chunky Cherry” shade from
this range too! It’s so pretty and the shade just looks like “Nivea Cherry Lip
Balm.” But now considering the low
staying power, I think now I’ll hunt for a similar shade in MAC Sheen
lipsticks. Hmmm.. Decisions! Decisions!
