These lip glosses are from a super cute, pro-cupcake Etsy store. I'm leery of baked good flavors, but these glosses have converted me to the dark side. Let's break these balms down individually.
The Brownie Batter Gloss
This is a tinted gloss. It is a very sheer tint but it does warm up your lip color. The downside to this is, due the fact this is in a tin, your finger manages to keep some of that tint so you cant wipe it on your skin or on your pants....unless you want those to be a light, warm brown.
This gloss smells amazing. It is EXACTLY like the brownie mix I remember making with my grandma, and tastes just like licking the spoon!!! And an extra and adorable touch, the cocoa in here leaves little bumps so it is like brownie batter! I love it.
There is lanolin in this gloss, and according to Embrace Bath & Body's Etsy, the lanolin makes the gloss stay on the lips longer. This is very lick-able, but even after licking, it's still there. It absorbs at a nice rate and does not feel waxy or greasy. It is a nice and luxurious texture on your lips.
The Cupcake Gloss
This is meant to be the flavor of a vanilla cupcake with butter cream frosting. It doesn't taste overpoweringly vanilla-ish, but it is a sweet treat for your lips! This gloss is much sweeter than the Brownie Batter, and it does not tint your lips.
It goes on and lasts the same as the Brownie, except you can wipe the excess that is on your finger on your skin or pants, not staining!
Overall, this lip gloss is stellar. The $3.50 price (for the Brownie, $3.25 for the Cupcake) is reasonable. The tin is super cute and the flavors are super chic.
