First Impressions: Soft Lips Coral Gloss Sheer Lip Protectant/Sunscreen!

Hi Everyone!

Today I'll be sharing my first impressions of the Soft Lips Coral Gloss with SPF 10.

I picked this up from my local Dollar Tree when I buying some school supplies. 

I believe this is a discontinued item, but if you can find it at a Dollar Tree or Big Lots or any other place, I say give it a try! (: 

Soft Lips Coral Gloss with SPF 10 - $1.00

So as I said, I picked this up from my local Dollar Tree last week after spotting it in the makeup aisle. I recognized the Soft Lips brand from it's large line of lip balms, but I didn't know that they made glosses. I was excited when I saw it because I really wanted to try it out. So, I bought it, took it home, and tried it out for you all! This is advertised as a sheer lip protectant/sunscreen. It does have SPF 10, and I'm one of those people that almost never uses lip balms with sunscreen in them, but it is a very important thing to do. This comes with 0.15 oz of product, which is less product than other comparable lip glosses.

 

Soft Lips Coral Gloss with SPF 10 - Opened

It has a typical doe foot applicator, just like most lip glosses with this format. It's more of a creamy gloss than a sticky gloss. It's very creamy when it goes on, and it's not very sticky. It goes on extremely smoothly, and it has pretty good color pay off. However, remember, it's not going to go on with full pigmentation, it is advertised as a sheer gloss. I don't find it to be super sheer, and it is buildable. I don't find that it goes on blotchy at all. I find that it applies very evenly and smoothly, and the color is buildable, but I wouldn't go more than two or three coats.

Soft Lips Coral Gloss with SPF 10 - Swatched

As you can see, the color of this gloss is not really coral. I find it to be more of a reddish-pink. It's still a gorgeous color, but I wouldn't classify it as coral. I find this color to be not really a natural color, more of a 'pop of color' type of shade. It's a more bright color, but I think it's still very wearable. There is some glitter/shimmer, but I think it just adds an extra pop to the lips, it's not very overdone. I really do love this gloss.

It applies so smoothly and evenly, and the color helps my teeth look whiter. I feel like it is more like a liquid lipstick than a gloss, but it does have that nice glossy finish.

I am personally not really a fan of lip glosses, because I find that most glosses are too sticky for my liking. However, I am loving this gloss because of it's smooth, non sticky formula.

All in all, if you can find it, get it. I think I may stop by my local Dollar Tree to pick up an extra or two. I have no idea why they discontinued this, because I think it is amazing. I definitely recommend it, and I know that before it was discontinued, it retailed for $3.99, and I would definitely pick up this gloss at that price too. It's an amazing gloss, and if you can find it, definitely pick it up.

Let me know if you can find this anywhere else!
