Pros: Smells wonderful, sort of brown sugar-vanilla. The darker side is nicely pigmented. The texture is really smooth, not sticky. The lasting power is average, I have to reapply every few hours, but that does not bother me. Makes my lips look fuller when wearing the light color on top of the dark color. Cons: Annoying brush applicator on the light side (the darker side has a doe foot applicator which I prefer). Having to apply two shades to get the desired effect (would be nice if they made one gloss that combined both colors). There are some rather large glitter particles in the lighter side, making this not a wearable color for daytime on me. Price is rather high.
