Shiseido Lip Balm ColorGel 2 g

I hated my color (pixel) at first and it goes on super thin but dried nice...I liked this after playing around with it. And adding something moisturizing on top since it finished dry

I got a small sampler packet of this product in assorted colors. I liked the ease of application but they were very dry looking on the lips and accentuated any dryness I already had.

Smooth, melt on your lips with rich pigment yet looks so natural. Doesn't feel dry.... almost feel that you don't wear lipstick

I am a big fan of the original Perfect Rouge formula, and I was skeptical of this new lipstick, but I LOVE it and wish they would make more shades. I have 227, sleeping dragon, a bright orangey red on me. It goes on truly like a gel, doesn’t dry my lips at all, and stays on even after a meal. I wish they would expand the shades since right now it’s mostly light pinks and a good range of reds. I’d love to see some medium pinks and berries. The sleek case stays closed nicely, doesn’t get scratched in my purse. I think it feels like a product with a much higher price tag.

After wearing these for a day or 2, I've found they don't leave a stain but patchy lips behind. And they are incredibly drying. Tried using balm over and/or under this lipstick and it makes the wear on this lipstick horrible. I bought 2 of these and they are great. Super light gel lipstick that stays on my lips for several hours and then leaves behind a beautiful stain. And for a decent price of $22. After Laura Mercier's Creme smooth lipstick this has become a favorite of mine. Will be getting more colors. I bought rose muse and night rose. The swatches on the Sephora site are pretty close to the real color. These are both beautiful rose shades. My preferred colors for a natural look which is my preference.
