Advantages: Choice of colours, smell, taste, texture

Disadvantages: Not as long-lasting as other lip glosses

I received this as a gift for Christmas and can safely say that this set of lip glosses definitely make a good present to any make-up lover - the packaging is lovely and sophisticated, there was almost no need for this product to be wrapped up!

This gift set contains 3 double-ended lip glosses containing 6 wonderful shades, from deep red and pale pink to glittery gold - there really is a shade to suit everyone. Usually in gift sets people will favour some shades over others, however every shade in this set is a firm favourite of mine and they have all been used equally! Each stick of lipgloss contains one light and one dark shade, so if you go out you can pop one stick in your bag and you have two co-ordinating colours to choose from to change your look as you please.

The lip gloss itself applies evenly and it even has a moisturising quality to it, making lips feel silky smooth. The formula is non-sticky, I have worn the matt 'nude' colour to a theme park and despite going on several rollercoasters I had no problem with my hair sticking to my lips, which would no doubt be a problem with other brands.

The product is quite long-lasting... or it would be if it didn't smell and taste so divine - I often find myself having to reapply after I've licked it off! Despite daily applications, the clear tubes show me that I have a considerable amount of product left which is pleasantly surprising.

As it was a gift I'm not sure what price was paid for it, however if it is in line with the usual high price of Benefit products then I would say this is justifiable, as you are getting 6 colours which last a long time. Definitely recommendable!

Summary: A perfect gift
