VERDICT
April 30th, 2017: I wasn't expecting to like this as much as I do. I figured it would just be another lip gloss that would sit in my ginormous collection of lip glosses and get used maybe once in a long while or never, but I've actually been reaching for it non-stop since I got it.
For me, this is pretty much my exact lip color except maybe a hair pink-er, so it's the perfect everyday lip gloss for me. This makes my lips look healthy, juicy, shiny and smooth and truly gives me a my lips but better look except it comes with the added bonus of a healthy shine. Also, it actually is very hydrating. While the shine does wear off, the lip gloss itself actually has some staying power and keeps your lips nicely coated and hydrated thanks to the hyaluronic acid that has been added into the formula...I'm assuming. Side note, if you weren't already aware, Hyaluronic Acid is known to hold 1000 times it's weight in water, so it's a well known and loved ingredient for hydration.
My lips have been in rough shape lately, and I feel like this has definitely helped to keep them hydrated and aid in repairing them. While I wouldn't say it's as good as my holy grail ChapStick® Total Hydration 3 in 1 - Coconut Hydration: https://ahnspired.blogspot.com/2016/06/chapstick.html, it performs pretty gosh darn well in the hydrating and moisturizing department...as well as, if not better than some other regular lip balms...like the eos lip balms. I definitely prefer the hydrating powers of this lip gloss over the eos lip balms.
Anywho, the formula has a good grip to it, so it sticks to the lips and lasts for a long while, but it's not sticky or tacky feeling in the slightest...it's very comfortable to wear. I do like the wider rounded flat paddle doe foot applicator, but it does seem to be a little too big for the lip gloss tube. You kind of have to yank it out and force it back in...it's not a smooth and effortless process. They should've made the opening a little bigger to accommodate the wider applicator, but it doesn't bother me...although it may bother others, so FYI.
If you're looking for a good hydrating lip gloss that performs as well as a lip balm that you don't have to constantly reapply, then I would recommend giving this one a try. While you do have to reapply at some point, especially if you want to keep the shine, you don't have to as much as you would with other lip glosses. I only reapply this once, maybe twice a day (depending on how long my day goes) and that's it...pretty much after I've eaten is when I reapply.
This comes in eight different shades, according to Ulta, and I think I want to go get the red one in Deep Cherry. I kind of want Vibrant Raspberry as well, but it looks pretty similar to the Radiant Rose that I have, except a little bit brighter and berry toned, so I don't know about that one (as I have more than enough lip glosses in my collection) but I definitely do want the cherry one since I love to wear reds when I'm not wearing nudes.
