I'm honestly not the biggest fan of lip gloss. I'm a balm or lipstick person, and I hate shiny lips. However, my boss asked me to try The Balm Read My Lips gloss in BAM! to see if we wanted to bring it into the store. So I tried it, and it's okay. Like all lip gloss for me, it has its pros and cons.
Pros:
Not sticky.
Great strawberry smell/taste.
Very hydrating.
Pigmented.
Shiny (if you're into that).
$15 (Pretty good for a mid-end lip product).
Cons:
Hair still will cling to it in the wind, unlike just a lip balm.
Shiny (if you don't like shiny lips like me).
Pigmented (if you don't like the color, it won't take on the color of your lips to make it wearable for you). I like sheer gloss if I ever wear it. This shade was too pink for me.
Ultimately, while this gloss isn't bad, it wasn't good enough to even make me like lip gloss or ask my boss to bring it into the store. On that note though, a co worker of mine who is huge lip gloss fan LOVES this. So it could work for you. I just really don't think it's that special.
