I bought the shade Star Dust and it's a pretty translucent pink with gold, pink, and blue sparkles. Overall the formula is nice, it is glossy, not too thick or sticky. It smells like tea tree oil which was unexpected and not a smell I particularly want around my mouth area. The applicator is flexible at the part where the sponge tip attaches to the wand, but the actual sponge tip doe foot is very stiff and hard at the tip. Do not accidentally poke yourself, it is almost sharp. I'll take off two stars for the smell and the uncomfortable application.
