i purchased the red shade and oh my god it's the cutest thing. the product itself works really well as both a blush and a lip tint, i say lip tint instead of lip balm because the product isnt all that glossy its actually more matte in my opinion. the smell is so nice and its long lasting! i have been using this as my blush and lip color ever since i received it and i'm loving it, i would absolutely repurchase once i've run out. my only con is that i have to use my fingers to dab into the product then onto my face, but not to worry!! you can use a brush or a sponge to apply it, i personally prefer the sponge. i dab about 3 sheer taps on my cheeks and i blend it in with a makeup sponge.
