Too creamy for eyes and cheeks, too dry/messy for lips
I really wanted to love this; I've been trying to radically reduce my waste and simultaneously use more natural products, and this seemed like such a perfect fit. I didn't mind the small size at all; that was part of my goal.<br /><br />Unfortunately, both the pink & red lip/cheek colors make my cheeks break out, and the pink is too drying and patchy on my lips (I'm over 35, so it's possible this will work better for younger skin). The red works nicely for lip coloring on initial application and isn't drying, but it bleeds badly after wearing it for any real length of time, and then you start to have fruit-punch mouth.<br /><br />The lip balm at bottom may well be the worst part. It is simultaneously not moisturizing (feels like more of a gloss than a balm) and it half-melts in even the slightest warmth, so every time I touch it I get a giant gob of it.<br /><br />The highlight and bronzer might work well for younger skin, but they are very glittery. For me, I would only use these on my eyes, where they slide around horribly (even with primer). They are gorgeous in color, but just not a good fit for me, and possibly not for anyone over 35.
