Dona plumping lip balm - lip balm discontinued by System JO - review by Angel Baby

Hello, to my new favorite lip balm that I can’t seem to stop putting on my lips! Dona made this lip balm and it’s supposed to be a lip plumper and an aphrodisiac. However It did not plump my lips or turn me on. It is an amazing lip balm though. It smells good and keeps your lips smooth for a few hours. Not to mention it absorbs well but at the same time leaves your lips silky soft to the kiss. There is no taste to this lip balm at all. At least that is my opinion. IT really moisturizes your lips without making them oily or sticky. It may not work as an aphrodisiac or a plumper but it workers great as a go to lip balm that will get the job done. Your chapped lips will be smoothed with this balm! There is a lovely nutty smell to this lip balm but I can’t quite figure out what type of nut it smells like. There’s olive oil and Shea butter in this lovely balm so you know you’re getting your money’s worth. I think this is great for anyone but if you don’t like the smell of almonds or nuts in general then I wouldn’t buy this!This lip balm is not colored so you can’t use it as a lip stick. It goes on sheer.

Texture wise this balm is very smooth and just glides on your lips. It’s not sticky, greasy or oily! It is not one of those lip balms that will remind you of shortening! It simply is smooth. It’s an amazing base coat for your lips when you want to put on lip stick and have a smooth finish. The Shea butter really leaves your lips feeling smooth. This lip balm does not run all over the place! It’s not a gloss. If you’re looking for gloss then look for a different product. It comes in stick form so it’s semisolid. You put this stuff on your lips and it stays there.

As I said earlier I did not taste anything when I put this balm on my lips. There is an amazing smell to this balm. It reminds me of nuts. Think almonds or even peanuts. The smell is very apparent but not strong. You won’t smell it a foot away from your lips but if someone is close enough to kiss you then they will smell it. This balm is supposed to smell like mangosteen but I don’t know what mangosteen smells like. However I do know what nuts smells like and it smells very nutty. It’s an amazing smell though. It reminds me of a dessert. There is cocoa seed butter in this balm and you can smell that too. So if you like a light smell of cocoa combined with nuts then this is for you!

Lasting wise this lasts for about 2 or 3 hours and leaves your lips feeling smooth all day. You won’t have to wash this balm off because it isn’t gross and it absorbs great. It doesn’t sit there like grease on your lips but absorbs in a timely fashion (not too slow or too fast). I love this balm because it absorbs great and leaves my lips smooth. Plus I’m addicted to the smell! As an aphrodisiac or lip plumper it didn’t work. As a lip balm however it works perfectly. It also comes in six flavors; Camu Camu, Acai, Blue Lotus, Goji Berry, Pomegranate and of course Mangosteen Delight. The smell is amazing but It doesn’t smell what I would think Mangosteen would smell like. Mangosteen is a tropical fruit from what I’ve read and this does not smell like fruit at all. So long story short; this doesn’t work as a lip plumper or aphrodisiac, it doesn’t smell like Mangosteen (Smells like nuts and cocoa), but it’s an amazing smoothing lip balm! Also another piece of info; mangosteen is the next to last ingredient on the ingredient list. In common terms that means there's very little mangosteen in this balm.

Packaging wise this came in a normal (0.15 ounce) lip balm tube with a plastic label and the name. The ingredient list is also on it and nothing more. The lip balm container (holds the lip balm) did not come in a box or packaging. There isn't anything sexual on the lip balm container so of course it's discreet.

This lip balm does have a mild cooling sensation. But it doesn't freeze you lips or make them uncomfortable. The cooling sensation is very mild. If you're interested in knowing what's in this lip balm then here is the ingredient list.
