Appearance and consistency:
Although it appears a vibrant red in the pot and packaging, its a lovely sheer colour that glides onto the lips without a sticky feeling. The red peeks through, and appears to be more of a natural flush, which I love. It looks very natural and feels very moisturising, I use it to top off my blush or instead of blush some days as a hack to use instead of highlighter! See below the photos of 1 layer, vs 2 layers - the only con is that you will need to reapply throughout the day to touch up, but this is typical for lip balms. All in all, this is a great product I would recommend!
It looks like a vibrant red in the pot - but actually when you apply, its a beautiful sheer and natural shade of rose
Scent :
No scent!
Swatches of AOU Glowy tint balm 04 Cherry - my lips feel and look moisturised, with a beautiful natural flush to them!
TLDR
What I loved: 😍
The balm is comfortable, moisturising - and NON STICKY - with a delicate and natural sheer colour than can be used as a topper on lipstick, or built up. I also love how there is no scent, and there is even MINERAL SUNSCREEN (titanium dioxide) as part of the ingredients. I see why its become a cult favourite.
What wasn’t so great: 😥
The lasting power isn’t so great, you will need to reapply a few times throughout the day to keep the same shine and colour - but honestly, this is the same for all lip balms!
