The Kiss Theory Lip Balm Greatly Disappointed Me (A bit of a rant)
I was excited to get my ABH Kiss Theory Lip Balm. When it arrived, however, I was immediately disappointed. The packaging is very skinny and about as long as my index finger. When I twisted it up all the way, the actual amount of product was about 1.5 cm long. I then tried to twist it back down all the way and it didn't go down! Additionally, the product packaging is cheap and light, and the lip product component rattled very slightly any time I shifted the main packaging. Not only that, but the color is shockingly too light for someone as fair as I am. I need a lip liner to make it look more "at home" on my face and not wash me out. It doesn't help that the color is less pigmented than my natural lip color. The gloss also settles into my lip lines, which when paired with the lighter color looks very odd on me. From further away I don't think it's as noticeable, but it's hard for me to tell. Finally, the formula feels a little too thick for me, but if I apply a thin layer the color looks even weirder. Does anyone have any advice on how to make this product work?? Needless to say I'm not buying it again, but I want to make it work while I have it (especially since it was $18!)
