I'm in my early 30s and I love Luster Glass Lipstick, but I've had trouble wearing it for long periods of time because it irritates my lips, so I decided to buy this. The bottom line is that I no longer experience irritation or peeling! Even with non-tint glosses, my lips always peel, but this one didn't irritate my lips at all. It creates an oily film, and while my lipstick tops come off after meals, this one I used as a base stayed on, so I was impressed. I think there are many people who are afraid of peeling with lipsticks, so I would definitely recommend giving this a try. I've tried a lot of different things to prevent peeling, but nothing beats this. ↓↓↓ (Some of the products I've tried) Laneige Obagi Derma Power X Mentholatum Hibipro DHC Medicated Lip Cream Maquillage Dramatic Essence Lip Care
This is my first lip primer. It's perfect for applying with a dab. Even though my natural lip color is dark, it applied lipstick lightly and reliably, and I wish I had bought it sooner. I recommend this to people with dark lips who find it difficult to get the lipstick to come out the way they want. I also like how thin it is and how easy it is to apply.
I use this in combination with MAC Powder Kiss Hazy Matte Lipstick. Unlike lip balm, it feels like a thin film is applied to the surface of the lips. I also like the scent and the thin stick.
The texture is like a refined lip balm that isn't sticky. Applying this improves the hold and color of your lips! It's great because it moisturizes without interfering with the lipstick you apply on top, but I thought the price was a little high.
