Winter isn't kind to most people who live in dry states. And as someone who's tried SO HARD to avoid dry states, here I am. lolihateithere. I've used a ton of lip balms for over night assistance but I'm always up for trying new products!
I decided to try Colourpop's lip mask. I tried one by Laneige which I liked okay but I couldn't really tell a difference.
This was the only product I picked up from the holiday Sanrio Colourpop collection; as much as I love makeup collabs with Sanrio, I always feel like they're such a hit or miss.
But with a lip scrub/lip mask combo, I figured it couldn't be that bad. Plus I've liked every Fourth Ray product I've tried!
The flavor says Peppermint Cookie but honestly it has a very faint scent and an even fainter taste. I was really looking forward to a Peppermint Cookie flavored lip balm, but this wasn't it. I really want to try other flavors of this product to see if they're just as faint or was it just this particular one.
The consistency is weird. I guess weird isn't fair. It's not something I'm use to. It wasn't sticky but it wasn't solid either. It didn't go on like a balm or lipstick, it was a lot more liquid than that. Pressing my lips together like you usually would with a lip balm didn't do much except get it in my mouth.
Maybe I'm doing this wrong? I'm not sure. But I didn't really notice if it helped or not in the morning, since I'd usually apply it before bed.
I really wanted to like this product, but I might have to figure out what I did wrong or if that's just how they work.
Looking at the reviews on the site, I think it's just me lol! Maybe I'll have better luck with a different flavor.
Final Thoughts;
Overall I didn't hate this product, I just expected a little bit more from it. The texture and consistency definitely threw me off. The upside is that it wasn't sticky and it did melt into my lips a lot quicker than I expected. The downside is that I felt like I might had used too much product because of how jelly like it is; and I didn't see a difference in my lip health the next morning.
Do you use lip masks? If so which ones would you recommend?
