Who doesn't love Hello Kitty? She's an icon! She's adorable, spunky and everyone's best friend. Hello Kitty has legit billions of items and memorabilia ranging from plush dolls to clothes, household items to cosmetics. You name it, Hello Kitty has done it.....but some things just don't deserve the official HK seal of approval.
I purchased these Hello Kitty glosses on a whim. Mostly because I have bought some of her lip balms in the past. This set includes five glosses
-Cherry
-Strawberry
-Blueberry
-Orange
-Apple *not pictured*
I wanted apple mostly because if you know me, you know I love apples! But not even my love for the doctor slaying fruit could save these glosses. First off, they reek. I can't really stomach the smell when I open the cap. I can best describe them as those fruit juices that try too hard to smell like real fruit. It's an almost over bearing smell. The strawberry actually smells more like hair gel to me.
But here is my biggest gripe with this catastrophe of lip glosses
See that micro glitter? So a lot of companies use glitter to spice up their glosses. I don't know what kind of glitter they use, but you can't feel it at all. It's very light on your lips. But these little abominations have the worst glitter I've ever put on my lips. You can feel it like cutting into your lips a bit. I've even had them get in my mouth and crunched on them. Yes you read that right. I was biting on glitter. I can't imagine how Ke$ha feels when she ingests glitter. I mean we all love it cause it's sparkly and pretty. But it's a most unpleasant feeling in your tongue and teeth. I'm legit cringing right now....
I don't really know how to grade these. Maybe a 3/10? I'll give it points for being a Hello Kitty product. They're decent sized too so...2 points for HK and 1 for size. Quality= 0, wearability= 0. Hello Kitty needs to wave bye bye to the lip gloss game.
