NYC Applelicious Glossy Lip Balm

Hey everyone! I recently did a review on YouTube about the NYC Applelicious Glossy Lip Balm I picked up at Walmart not too long ago. These were about $2.99 each where I live and I picked up four colors which are Caramel Apple, Applelicious Pink, Pink Lady, and Apple Blossom. Overall I think these lip balms were really nice for the price.

Pros:

  1. Good Pigmentation
  2. Variety of Colors
  3. Cute Packaging!
  4. Build-able color
However there were a couple cons:
  1. Scent- was a bit perfume like and tasted like it too at times
  2. Texture- The balm is kind of slippery on the lips
Overall I give this product a B+, it was almost an A but the perfume smell/taste on some of these was appealing to me. I don't want to have a lip balm that tastes like perfume but I only had this issue with one or two of them so its not that big of a deal. Check out my video below to learn more about this product!
