Advantages: Sleek look and easy carry
Disadvantages: All, the price being the biggest disadvantage
Available in several different (rather cool )) shades, this lipstick comes in a chrome case. It can be pulled up by turning the bottom part around (like in case of any other lipstick). It sure is a stick with a thin pencil like packaging.
I am a big fan of The Body Shop and have tried many of it's products but mostly skin care products. It was the first time that I tried their make up. Earlier I had used their conventional lipstick and now I tried this sheer lip colour.
I didn't feel anything different with this lipstick although it claims to be smooth as far as the application is concerned. If you are looking for an easy to carry lipstick, this is good enough but it can leave the cracks on the lips more visible rather than smoothening them out when applied.
I tried the ruby colour which was good for day use and night use alike. The colour choices are plenty. The price is a bit too much for this regular sized lipstick. Mine came in for 9 pounds. If I have to spend this much, I would rather go in for a revlon/l'oreal and I can buy two of those for the same price on special offers.
I would not really suggest any of you lipstick lovers to go in for this one unless you really have to splurge and make a collection just for the heck of it.
Summary: Do not buy this if you have better options
