Catrice Melt & Shine Juicy Lip Balm Review: Plump, Hydrated Lips Every Day

My Review:

I tried out the Catrice Melt & Shine Juicy Lip Balm and here are my thoughts:

• The compact size makes it perfect for carrying in my bag for on-the-go touch-ups.
• The tingle sensation is just right, not uncomfortable at all.
• The gloss is very shiny, so it might not be ideal for windy days.
• It applies smoothly and is not sticky, thanks to its light texture.
• Although the initial clicks were needed to start the product, a single click is enough for full shine afterward.
• While it’s hydrating and stays on for a few hours, the darkest shade lacked pigment even after multiple swipes.
• It’s more of a lip balm than a gloss, providing a moisturizing effect with a hint of color.
• The click-up design may require multiple clicks, but it helps preserve product freshness.
• It has a berry tone rather than a sheer color as shown in photos.
• The lip gloss gives a natural glow and is perfect for a subtle pop of color on no-makeup days or chapped lips.
• You can control the sheerness and shine level based on application amount.
• The product is sheer, balmy, non-sticky, and can be applied without a mirror.
• It provides a glossy and softening effect on the lips, although not highly pigmented.
