KORRES NATURAL PRODUCTS CHERRY FULL COLOR LIP GLOSS

It is sort of rose, sort of mauve, and totally natural looking. It is described as a "sheer dusty rose". It is just that. The gloss has a faint cherry scent - think real cherries, not cherry candy. The scent fades very fast, which I like. There is no flavor. The gloss is fairly reasonably priced compared to most glosses. I just repurchased this in the "Cherry Picked Lip Gloss Quad" - which is a r...read moreeally great value ($28 for 4 full-sized glosses). This gloss came in a set available at Sephora that came with 3 other Cherry Full Color Glosses and 3 Lip Butters. This set has gotten me hooked on Korres. This gloss is #25, otherwise called Natural Purple. As others have said it's more of a rosy mauve, a mlbb color. It has a fair amount of pigment, straddling the line between a sheer gloss and a liquid lipstick. The consistency is wonderful - moisturizing, non-sticky, non-goopy and doesn't leave weird residue on your lips after it's faded away and it's time for reapplication. Smells faintly of cherries, think ripe cherries, not artificial or overly sweet; no flavor. All in all, a wonderful gloss -- and on top of all that, I love that it's natural and the company is animal friendly. All I can say is WOW to this amazingly beautiful color. The color is a beautiful pink somewhere between mauve and rose. I am just starting to try Korres products, but so far I find their color names hilariously inaccurate. This is nowhere near purple, unless Korres likes to consider pink "natural purple". It doesn't matter to me. Like others I got this in the trio set of glosses, but I will definitely buy this one it's own when I am done with the tube I've got. Other pluses: A wonderful creamy texture that is not sticky at all, and a beautful high shine that make this a more of a grown up gloss. I saw this on temptalia's website, and it looked stunning on her lips! It looked like a beautiful, creamy, coral lipstick... despite the name "Natural Purple." Even she made reference to the name being misleading, because there was no purple in this at all. Well, I don't know if I just have unusually pigmented lips or what, but this gloss didn't appear ANYTHING on me like it appeared on Christine's (temptalia) lips! On me, I could see where the name "natural purple" comes from, because this gloss darkened my natural color and made them look very dark mauve. I am not comfortable in lipsticks and glosses that darken my lipcolor, even if others might find it attractive. I am shocked by how many reviewers also said that the name does not match the gloss's name or color (natural purple), and I am probably the only one here who sees what Korres see. I like that this gloss is moisturizing and I like the cherry scent, I just can't stand the color on me. I still would rate it as a better than average product, but I am never going to wear it again since I can't stand the color on my lips. I am planning to return this to Sephora.

I don't like them.

I have at least five or six of these glosses floating around. I liked the idea, and they do smell like cherry candy. However, the gloss is a little thin and slick. It isn't sticky at all, but only seems to stay on lips for a little while, is only somewhat moisturizing, and there never seems to be enough product on the wand. There are a few nice colors, and some very blah ones. I definitely will NO...read moreT be repurchasing these, but I can see how they would appeal to ladies who want a natural subtle gloss.
