It's great because it doesn't feel sticky after application.
This lipstick doesn't have that distinctive smell that you get the moment you apply it, which is common with the classic pink. I feel like the moisturizing power is a little lacking for dry skin. My lips dry out quickly in air-conditioned places, so I end up applying it multiple times. It's light and doesn't cause any irritation or discomfort. If I had to choose between the pink and this green, I'd choose this one!
My trusty lucky charm lip! Basically, when it comes to lips, 90% of the time, nothing I put on them works. I've almost given up on it. lol I know the classic pink is good, but as everyone has said, the lanolin smell is terrible, so I stopped using it for a while, and then came back when the sensitive one came out. lol The sensitive one isn't completely odorless, but it's barely noticeable. On the other hand, even though it's a quasi-drug, the fact that it still contains lanolin means it's effective, so I take that as a positive (this is purely my personal opinion). I always keep this on hand in the fall and winter. *I'm also happy that this one contains ceramide. Even if I leave it for a while and it gets rough, it glides on smoothly without any sagging, and before I know it, my lips are back to normal. The only downside is that it's a little less moisturizing than the classic one. However, I think the slim, diagonal cut makes it easy to handle, the clean, stylish look, and the affordable price are all great.
It's light and easy to use with no scent.
