REVIEW: The Body Shop Peach Lip Gloss

This time I am going to review The Body Shop Lip Gloss that I recently got. There's a BOGO promo for this lip gloss, and I decided to buy it together with my cousin so we could save money ^^ She got the Watermelon and I chose the Peach one.

First Impression...

The Body Shop Peach Lip Gloss : The applicator

This lip gloss comes in a simple packaging like other TBS products. It has tube type applicator, hygienic enough to applied straight to the lips. Contains 12 ml (0.4 fl oz) and you can get it at IDR 79.000 or about USD 8. This lip gloss has a slightly artificial peach scent, but I love it.

Swatch swatch...!

The Body Shop Peach Lip Gloss : Swatches on lips

This lip gloss is rather sticky and therefore I found it difficult to be applied evenly. But thank God it gives me a sheer glossy finish, because I just do not like my lips looking so glossy. About the staying power, this lip gloss stays about 3 hours on my lips without eating or drinking.

My overall opinion...

I do not like the texture and I think the price tag is a bit over the top, but it smells nice (I love peach) and gives me natural glossy finish (also don't forget that TBS products are animal cruelty free) so... I think it worth enough to try if you're a peach lover and looking for environmental-friendly products.

YAY:

has a nice peach scent

nice design, hygienic
sheer, natural glossy finish

NAY:

average quality
little bit pricey

RATING:

3/5 ACCEPTABLE

REPURCHASE?

No. I think I wanna try another lip products from TBS..  Born Lippie line maybe?
