Stage Wondergloss Lipgloss (Persephone)

For those who read Greek Mythology, you might know of the story of Persephone. I love reading about Greek myths (love playing Zeus too lol) ^_^

Summary : Persephone is the daughter of Zeus & Demeter (harvest goddess). Hades abducted her and tricked her into eating 6 pomegranate seeds. Demeter found her daughter and is forced into an agreement where Persephone will be with her for 6 months (Spring & Summer) and then return to the Underworld with Hades for the remainder of the year. Without her daughter, Demeter is sad and has no mood to tend to the harvest. Hence, you have Winter & Autumn =/

Story is unrelated to this product review.. =_="

As mentioned in my review for Sophia, the applicator is not my fav but it works.. Gloss is reddish and pigmented. At first I found this intimidating but now I'm more okay with it. It's shimmery and the shimmer remains after I wipe the gloss away. I do feel that it's quite sticky and feels a little uncomfortable if I don't reapply.. There's also a heavy vanilla scent that may annoy some people.

A light swipe adds shine and colour to my pale lips, bringing it to life. It isn't too drying but having dry lips, I would prefer something moisturizing.

I seem to be recycling photos a lot recently.. =/ Don't feel like redoing full face makeup just to show 1 product. Also cos I'm being cautious with mascara now. That day I was removing my mascara and a clump of 3 lashes dropped out just like that.

So here's a pic of me with lashes while they're still there wtf

My alternative to red lips since I do not have the guts to wear red lipstick yet.
