Ok, I'll admit it was the packaging that made me want to try these lip gloss sticks. Have you noticed that every drug store brand seem to have something like this? At $2 each, I thought it would be fun to try a few of the colors.
It's funny that they call them lip gloss; they are basically a colored lip balm. They are kind of like Maybelline's Baby Lips, but some of them have glitter.
Although they are like a lip balm, they aren't incredibly moisturizing. They are bold on color though. I was very happy with the color pay off. A little goes a long way.
I purchased Flirty and Girly, a cool pink with sparkle, and Sangria Starters, a red with brown undertones. The colors on eyeslipsface.com are off. I recommend looking up swatches on Youtube or blogs to help you get a better idea of the colors. Also be aware that some of this are heavily glittered.
The color wears off fairly quickly. It's definitely not a stain.
Overall, the lip gloss sticks are fun, and the colors are pretty. They aren;t my favorite, but for $2 each ($1 each when eyeslipsface.com has a 50% off sale) they are worth trying.
UPDATED: Although I still say these aren't lip glosses, they wear longer and are more moisturizing if you apply them generously. I had been afraid of the color and had put just a little bit on. I'm now excited to try some of the other shades!

Even though the colors wear off quickly, it still looks like a great deal for people who would like to try out different colors!

That's true! They are such a great price. I found an elf colored lip balm at the Dollar Tree today called Strawberries and Cream that I like a little bit better. It's more moisturizing and smells like strawberries, yum! Gotta love elf! :)
