While we love avocado as much as the next person, eating it at every meal may not be the best idea. Instead, let your pout benefit from the superfood with this lip butter that packs the color punch of a lipstick and hydrating power of a balm. Made with 12% avocado oil, the cruelty-, paraben-, and gluten-free formula nourishes lips thanks to collagen-boosting peptides. Each shade is packaged in unique artwork, meaning no two are alike.
I got this in my Birchbox, and I was really excited to try it out. Unfortunately, my sample arrived broken. When I opened the lipstick, it was pushed all the way up and fell out of the tube. I was able to put it back together, but it's just gonna keep falling apart. As for the product, it was initially very moisturizing, but a little streaky. After a while, it did dry out my lips.
3Unfortunalty the product arrived melted- all over the rest of my samples- that instantly turned me off to the product- i don't want to purchase something that melts this quickly- also it smelt and had an old chemical taste to it- color was ok- would have maybe enjoyed it if I could have used it properly- I used a lip brush to apply what was left of the mess- it was creamy- but again product may have been old.
2There was so much wrong with this sample. I have a very fair complexion and I wrote in my profile that I rarely wear makeup. So I don't understand why I got a very dark lipstick that would need a lipliner to go with it so that it didn't bleed. Plus like others said, the packaging was very cheap and the lid came off and the lipstick stained all of my other samples. The only slightly redeeming quality of this sample was the amazing scent. Give me a scent like this in a light gloss and I would have been completely happy. This was my second Birchbox and I hope this will be my last sample like this.
1This definitely wasn't right for me. The lipstick had come out of the tube and was smashed up in the lid. It happens; it's one of the risks of receiving products in the mail. So I grabbed a lip brush to try it. I'm extremely fair and the Ninza shade was waaaay too dark for me. Again, these things happen. What made me rate it so low, though, was the consistency of it. Even with a lip brush, this would not go on smoothly and was very noticeable because of how pigmented it was. The color clung to the dry skin on my lips (which is why I wanted to try this in the first place) and will not come off. Luckily it's house cleaning day so I can hide me clown lips inside. This went right into the trash
