Korres Cherry Lipgloss- Fuchsia
I am very fussy with lipgloss; it must not be too slimy nor too sticky, too scented or too gritty in texture.
I have to admit I was slightly scared of this product in the tube as it appears to be a bright red/pink and I am normally a nude girl at heart but I have to say I have become a colour convert!
Despite the initial scare this translated to a beautiful sheer wash of muted fuschia with a subtle glitter. Perfect for the summer as it is not heavy and looks good against a tan!
The applicator is a doe foot sponge, which is my personal favourite as it seems to apply the products more smoothly and evenly. The gloss is not sticky in the slightest which is a massive bonus and the small glitter particles are not gritty. Nobody with long hair likes the hair stuck to your lips look! The scent is a delicate cherry but in no way sickly.
This lasted a good two hours before reapplication was needed, which for a gloss is pretty impressive for me. The formula is hydrating, thanks to the vitamin e and cherry oil within the product and my lips felt comfortable even when the product had begun to wear off.
Overall I am very impressed with this product and I am already eyeing up the colour beige pink in the full colour range!
