Shine on lip gloss by Bella Il Fiore - review by ~LaUr3n~

Let Isabel, Rosie, Je t'aime, Marie Antoinette, Mademoiselle, or LuLu add some bulk and shine to your pucker. Each Shine on Gloss has a bit of shimmer and a color tint to add sexiness. The tip is molded and slanted to help mess free and accurate application out of the easy to squeeze tube. The see-through tube showing the lovely color paired with the gold lettering and cap makes this high shine gloss look very high end too. It's very thick and lasts a long time. They are even lightly scented! The Isabel (pink) version has a hint of vanilla in its fragrance. The ingredients are safe and soften the lips. Animals are not used to test the product which is made in the USA and is free of parabens!

Described as a gloss, Shine On is definitely very thick. Even with a small amount applied, it makes the lips appear to have an increased volume. The shine can also have this effect. The gloss has a dense gel like quality. When applied to the lips, warmth does not thin it out. The gloss remains thick and may require a finger to truly spread it around to cover the lips entirely. When first applied and for a while after application, the gloss will feel very uniform. As it begins to absorb into the lips, it may start to feel a little grainy as the shimmer granules in the gloss don't get absorbed. Reapplying a little bit of gloss fixes this and restores the smoothness.

The Isabel gloss has a light peach and soft pink hue that add a very light tint to the lips. It is opaque, so it only offers slight color. The shimmer is also perfectly subtle.

Isabel has a vanilla like smell to it that also has a hint of rose. It's a light smell and there is no taste.

Shine On Gloss can be worn as an every day lip cover, but it is best for a more obvious look since it doesn't look natural because the shine is dramatic. With this gloss you can really draw attention to the lips and give them volume. As you wear the gloss it hydrates the lips leaving them feeling soft and smooth. The gloss locks in moisture and helps protect against chapping. Providing long-lasting coverage, Shine On Gloss rarely needs to be reapplied. A lip tint can be applied before this gloss to add more color. The gloss can add a shine to a more matte lipstick or dye. Pair it with a slightly darker lip liner to really make the lip pop.
If you want to remove the gloss prior to that, it will need to be washed off with soap and water.

The tube the glosses come in is sleek and pretty. The clear tube has gold writing saying the name of the product, but not the specific shade. The tub is clear, so the shade can be seen through it. The cap is also a shiny gold. It screws off to expose the molded and tilted tip with a small hole for the product to be squeezed through. It helps provide accurate and mess free application. The tube holds 15 ml of gloss.

The tube is packaged in a cardboard box with couture like designs. The box makes it an excellent gift and lists the ingredients. The box does not state the shade.
