Was disappointed in the Vita Color Fruits Roll Stick in shades 1, 2, and 7.  First, the darker color core in the center of each shade did not make any difference, because as each is applied, the dual colors of either stick just blends together.  So, they do not give a gradient, 2-tone effect.  They are pretty colors though and brighter than the product sample photos show on the computer screen.  The texture is creamy, but I find these to be slightly drying on my lips.  Despite being creamy, this lipstick skips and/or settles into the creases of lips somewhat.  The color lasts about average for a lipstick.  The color pay off is satisfying even for those with naturally darker lips.  I will use these, but will not repurchase.  There is a slight sweet/fruity smell to them, but not bothersome at all.  The packaging is cute and of quality.
