The Body Shop Hi-Shine Lip Treatment Cherry Glimmer Review
Post by my friend Tejinder Kaur
The pigmentation levels are really good in the darker / brighter shades but weaker in the lighter shades. They are quite moisturizing and will keep your lips soft, supple and protected. This is a real lip treatment.

It has pretty good staying power. I love the feel of this gloss, and it moisturizes very well. It's smooth, delicate and caring. Very creamy, tasty and smells great like a fruit sweet scent. Consistency is good as it spreads evenly. It is very easy to use as it glides over the lips pretty easily with this slanted tip applicator. It gives glossy finish.

Packaging: It is a clear squeezing tube which identifies the color. It has a clear twist-off cap, which is rounded off. Has a slanted plastic applicator tip. The Plastic of the tube seems to be a little too stiff.
Texture: A bit sticky for me and too thick as well, yet creamy in texture. I love the fact that it leaves my lips very soft - this gloss does exactly what it says - nice and moisturizing. I like the finish, not too glossy but effective. It helps lips to stay comfortable even when it's cold and lips get dry.
Staying power: Stays maximum 3 hours. After about 3 hours the color on my lips is no longer there but my lips still look glossy, nice and shiny.
Pigmentation: Very good pigmentation. A single swipe builds up good color.
