4TIFY High Shine Lip Gloss, Icicle, 6.5g

4TIFY High Shine Lip Gloss, Icicle, 6.5gThe tube I received contains 2.5gmThis is a very pretty glossy shade of sheer pinky red that is very sheer and has a tiny bit of sparkle. It is a very pretty color and a nice gloss. This reminds me of my favorite gloss that I wore ages ago by Maybelline and was discontinued It can be worn alone or as a topper as a base lipstick. One coat gives a bit of coverage, but if you want to make an impact, you can layer this easily to be extra. Just wait for the initial coat to dry down and then apply more. This remains on the glossy side after it dries down. It is very easy and comfortable to wear. It has a slight chocolate scent. The packaging is really nice and it has a good doe-foot applicator in a clear plastic container with a matte black cap.I really love this lip gloss. The color has a bit of a satin effect and when it does wear off, it leaves a bit of color on your lips. I found that this wore about 4 hours during a normal day but eating and drinking wore it off faster. The gloss is really moisturizing and has no rebound dryness effect.4TFY Ingredients with my thoughts on each. - I have a feeling though that this list is all inclusive of the whole line of glosses and shimmers / toppers and not individual shades.POLYBUTENE: Polybutene is a polymer used as a plasticizer and viscosity agent.

The 4TIFY High Shine Lip Gloss gives the lips a nice boost.This comes in a tube featuring a doe foot applicator. The gloss can be seen through the transparent tube container. I like I can see the gloss because it let's me know how much is left and when I'd need to be getting more. It's also helpful to see the color I am aiming for when digging through my make up supplies.The formula is lightly sticky. For me, it's bearable. I find just a little bit to be enough coverage for me. It tints not completely covers with color.The color I like. It shimmers and sparkles a bit but no in a tacky, gaudy way. It does have a bit of a scent to it but it's not over the top.The price is reasonable but I can't say how long this will last because it will depend on how little or much it is applied when used.I like this gloss and love I'm supporting a product made in the USA. Recommended!

Overall I really like the 4TIFY lip glosses I have tried. This is not one of my personal favorites since it is more shimmery and frosted than I expected. Like the other glosses from 4TIFY, the color looks much darker in the tube than when applied. But the Icicle shade seems to have less pigment than the other colors I have. I like the product consistency and coverage so if you are looking for a gloss to add some shimmer with just a touch of color, this is a good choice. It you want more pigment, I would recommend another of the 4TIFY shades.

I naturally have a lot of color in my lips, so this shade looks like clear gloss on me. It is shimmery, but SO sticky, like the kind of cheap gloss you might buy for a preteen. It's better if I blot most of it off, but then all I'm left with is a faint sparkle. I've tried a few shades from this brand now and overall I can say this whole line of glosses has been disappointing.

This lip gloss has a nice color to it. And then there is the shine and the moisturizing. You put this on and by virtue of being a gloss, will need to be reapplied more than once throughout the day or night. That is normal. The color is my color.

The formula is a little on the thin side but it gives my lips a nice shine and it's good for what it is. I've never heard of this brand before but I like the fact that it's made in the USA. It stays on well until I have something to eat and then I have to re-apply. I don't think "Icicle" is the right name for this gloss because I associate that word with "white" or "light" and this gloss is more pink than pearl-like.

This is a nice rather sparkly lip gloss. It looks good but it is kind of strong tasting, unlike the 4tify lipsticks, which are so nice and flavorless. Good applicator and goes on easily and lasts.

The 4TIFY High Shine Lip Gloss in Icicle is just a hint of pink color with a lot of glossy shine and sparkle. It's a pretty color that is faint and flattering when you don't need a lot of makeup but still want to look fresh. It is easy to apply with the doe foot applicator. The gloss is a little thick but isn't sticky. It has a subtle sweet bubble gummy scent and no flavor that I can detect. It's a good moisturizer but doesn't last long. It will need to be reapplied frequently during the day.
