got this for $2 USD at Ulta to meet the free shipping threshold. i thought it would be a great lip balm in the vein of Glossier or Laneige… but, sadly, i think i hate this.
it comes out like a very runny lip gloss, so unlike the aforementioned lip balms, this applicator isn’t ideal for the product. i got some product in my mouth the first time i used it. 🤮
and the smell? i’m not sure what it’s Show more

Good dupe to the Fenty Beauty Gloss Bomb Fu$$y, but not as good as the original🤍
i feel like t doesn't last at all and dries out my lips :/ the nyx lip oil is way better.
