I am not typically a fan of NYC products, I only purchased this because it was on sale and the packaging was kinda cute - the little apple shape on the lip balm especially.
I was not surprised with the quality, it was way too soft and every time I applied it to my lips the product would look damaged and "smooshed". Did not leave my lips feeling anymore moisturizes and also the pigment it left on my lips did not last long, maybe a half hour tops. The colour that it did leave was fairly faint as well, couldn't really tell I was wearing anything but I was able to feel it.
The scent isn't TOO bad, I've smelled worst. It was a little bit fake-smelling, almost like plastic. I wish it would have had an apple scent to maybe make it more appealing as a product.
They are VERY cheap though and you get what you pay for.

This was a letdown. The colour fades after about an hour and it leaves my lips feeling dry and chapped.

The horrible scent and taste is what kills these for me. Way too much of a chemical taste. There was next to know colour pay off either so it wasn't even worth gagging over the taste.

Not as pigmented as i hoped and the moisturizing effect lingers on for less than 10 minutes. Not exactly disappointing but it is not something i'd buy again. The packaging is absolutely adorable though!

This is the worst lip balm gloss product I've ever tried. It smells off, it stains and it's way way darker than it looks. Yuck.

This product has cute packaging and I love the apple in the middle. The apple in the middle of the stick is very clever. However, I do not like the product. I put it on my lips and it feels greasy and waxy. I also didn't like the color that it made my lips.
