I purchased this for around $10 at Shoppers Drug Mart which is reasonably priced.
I purchased the shade “Pink Lagoon”. It seemed to be a brighter pink online, but when I applied it, it was more of a frosty pink. In this case, I felt that swatch was inaccurate.
The lip balm itself was also very drying. I had to apply lip balm first, then the lip crayon and then more lip balm on top because of how drying it was.
It’s really too bad. I love the colours, but there’s definitely better products out there.

This product is made in Japan. Retail on Sephora.com is anywhere from $54.00-$106.00 depending on size. I gave the ingredients list a quick scan and most of the ingredients are pretty good for your skin! I would use caution if you have sensitive skin as there are perfuming ingredients. I also love the packaging because it has a luxurious look to it.
To test this, I did half of my face with my usual routine and the other half I used the cleansing oil. This product is a clear oil and feels silky smooth.
If you wear heavy makeup or waterproof makeup, this oil is AWESOME for getting it off. The half of my face where I used the oil ended up being much softer and smoother after I was finished cleansing.
Overall, I give it a 4/5 mainly because I find the price point to be a bit high. I also wasn’t a huge fan of the fragrance, but someone else might be.
