Name: Cover Girl Amazemint Lipgloss in Happy Hour

Product: 5/5

Available: Anywhere CoverGirl is sold

I have debated with myself on whether or not to give this product a good rating or not. I personally did not like this product, but it wasn’t because of the product itself. If that makes any sense. I bought this particular BLUE lipgloss expecting to get a blue sheen on my lips. It turns out that this gloss actually applies CLEAR with shimmer. So I was understandably disappointed when I tried this out. I have several minty tasting glosses and shimmery balms at home already that gave me the same experience. CO Bigelow, Burt’s Bees, Wet N Wild to name a few brands of minty balms that I already have. BUT I am a beauty junkie and blogger, so I felt that it was my job and responsibility (LOL) to pick this product up to try it. So I bought this and another Amazemint gloss at CVS during their B1G1 Free CoverGirl deal. I eventually ended up returning both of these glosses back to the store.

I returned these products because they just weren’t what I was expecting. But these products do what they are said to do well. If you go in knowing that Happy Hour is actually a clear gloss, then you will be super happy with your purchase. When I applied this gloss to my lips it felt like it lit up my entire mouth with minty freshness. It does give the lips a pretty subtle shimmer and it seems to stay on for a good while. It is non sticky, which is a quality most people like in a gloss.

Final Thoughts: I have no problems with this gloss and what it does. It’s a pretty good deal and it really works, I just thought I was buying something different that what I got. As long as you purchase this gloss with the understanding that it is clear instead of blue, than you are good to go. If you are looking for a blue tinted gloss, good luck, with your search. But for now, I’m just going to enjoy my other minty lip products.
