I was excited to try this because of the great reviews I saw online. But it was disappointing. I got the shade Phenomenon (100), and was looking forward to a great nude shade. The colour is gorgeous, but this lacquer is not.

The smell is strange, it is sweet and chemical like, not quite a regular lipstick scent or usual sweet one like regular gloss. The formula is thick and does not give even coverage. While pigmented, it is patchy once on. Then the stickiness is apparent - it does not improve with wear. And after removal, my lips felt dry.

I am not sure if I got a bad tube of this product, or if this is how it usually is, but I doubt I will be giving this another try.

I was so excited when I finally managed to get hold of this product as I was going through a 'nude lips' stage and I heard that Acocolips in the colour Nude Eclipse was the best so far. I was SADLY disappointed. The balm itself smells so odd, it is WAY too thick and its also sup sticky on your lips and God forbid you get your hair in your face because you land up with it in your hair. I wish this product had been nicer as the packaging is fab and its the perfect size for just throwing into your handbag.
