EroStick lip gloss - lip gloss discontinued by Kama Sutra - review by redeagle

Overview
I received the Cherry EroStick lip gloss as a gift from a friend. I love lip gloss, and am rarely without it. Overall, I really like this gloss. My only negative feedback is that for about the first 15 minutes of wear, the "warming glow" feels like a light sunburn on my lips.

Packaging
The packaging is really nice. The product comes in a sleek, well-designed, paperboard box which vaguely indicates that this gloss could be used for more than kissing... Speaking only for myself, I would feel nervous to get close to my partner's genitals with the warming sensation the gloss gives. The tube itself is free of decals and stickers (a quality I happen to love), save for one small sticker on the bottom that peels off without residue.

Texture
I was worried that this gloss would be sticky or gummy, as so many in this type of tube are. It's thick enough to not run out of the tube or feel sloppy when applied, but it is very smooth on my lips. After it has worn off (which takes quite a while), my lips continue to feel smooth.

Scent and Taste
This cherry lip gloss smells awesome. I'm typically not a fan of fake fruit scents, but this calls to mind the smell of a cherry Slurpee and I'm loving it. The taste is neutral. It's not a plastic taste or a fruity taste (as you might expect from the scent... which, again, is delightful), but is really not a taste at all. While the tingling ingredients are still in effect, that's all my tongue can detect; just tingling.

How it looks
It looks beautiful. Despite being very pink in the tube, it applies clear with just a hint of shimmer. It retains its gloss factor for a couple of hours without a reapply.

Other uses
The shimmer, though subtle, will be too much for any men who don't want to be seen with shimmery lips. However, if you're into warming lubes and heated tingly sensations, this would be a good choice for other sensitive areas.

Be ye warned:
If your lips (or aforementioned other sensitive areas) are chapped, irritated, or already sunburned, you don't want to use this. My skin is a bit sensitive to warming lube and this is a little uncomfortable for me, so if you have a similar reaction to tingling products, you may want to steer clear.
