Sweet N' Spicy (But Still Nice-y)

Cosmetic product and sensual sex aid all in one. Expensive for a lip gloss, but it does so much more. The sensations are incredible, the taste is bearable and the packaging is lovely. The sensations might prove a bit much for some, and I do not recommend getting a lot of this directly on your tongue. If you do, it will burn and confuse your senses ever so slightly. However, if you apply this sparingly, you've got a winner.

Use

I love lip gloss, especially when it plumps or tingles! While this is expensive as far as lip glosses go, it's relatively reasonable in the realm of plumping glosses. While it's not officially a lip plumper, I really thought my lips felt and looked fuller! I love the subtle plump and shine this gloss provides without the admittedly foul taste that other plumping glosses seem to have. When used during oral, it offers a strange (but by no means unpleasant) hot/cold sensation with lots of tingles! I can understand why some people would be put off by this, but I personally love it. I love it as a cosmetic and I love it as a sex toy.

Texture / Consistency / Thickness / Viscosity

It has the consistency of lip gloss. It's kind of thick and kind of sticky but it goes on nice and smooth. With this, a little bit will go a long way. If you apply too much of it, you'll get gobs. This stuff doesn't feel the greatest when a concentrated dollop of it ends up on your tongue. The spicy, "icyhot" sensation is a weird one to try to cope with in public after applying just a bit too much of this stuff.
    • Smooth
    • Sticky
    • Thick

Taste / Aroma

According to the Shunga website, the flavor of this stuff is "strawberries and champagne". I found the taste and smell of it to be pleasant. The only unpleasant part is when you get too much of it on your tongue. The sensation of spicy coupled with the flavor of sweet is kind of bizarre and admittedly off-putting. The small amount of product used during oral sex isn't as bad, but globs of it on your tongue by accident is pretty gross.
    • Smells good
    • Strong taste

Performance

I find myself having to reapply this frequently as a lip gloss to maintain the alluring plump and shine. During oral sex, I find that a small swab over my bottom lip is more than enough to excite my partner.

I tagged "allergy concerns" only because the ingredients in this lip gloss might irritate some people. The strong hot/cold sensation isn't for everyone and there's nothing worse than ending up with a reaction that causes a rash on and around your lips.
    • Allergy concerns
    • Gets sticky
    • Reapply often

Packaging

I love the packaging. It's classy, discreet and minimal. The insert included a lot of information on other Shunga products, as well as a little art history lesson about Shunga paintings.
    • Discreet looking packaging
    • Does not leak
    • Would make a nice gift

Special Features

While this isn't technically a lip plumper, I feel like it makes my lips look much fuller after use. With the pins and needles tingling sensation, this could just be placebo but I like to think it does make them look plumper.
    • Increases sensitivity
    • Tingling
Follow-up commentary
While this lip gloss doesn't find much use for me in the bedroom, I still enjoy wearing it out. It feels nice on my lips, subtly plumps them and provides a lovely sheen. It's a little pricy to buy again, but it has lasted me a long time. This'll probably last me a good amount of time for what I paid for it. I'm still satisfied!

    What are the ingredients that could be allergy causing?
  • Contributor: meesmabye
    Perhaps "allergy causing" wasn't what I was looking for. I suppose "irritation" or "sensitivity" would have been more appropriate. Menthyl lactate is pretty irritating, so I wanted to mention the possibility.
