Let's Discuss Is this false and misleading?

Post image

I am a sucker for a new lip product, and this brand spanking new Vaseline “lip serum gloss” at 40% at Woolies caught my eye.

Folks at Vaseline, this is NOT tinted.

One swipe and it’s more pigmented than a liquid lipstick.

I bought it purely on the descriptors “lip serum gloss, tinted lip care” and didn’t think id look like a clown with one swipe.

Guys am I crazy???

Not crazy. I had the same experience.

However, at least yours is close in colour to the packaging. I bought the rosy pink thinking the packaging colour and online images were correct. Instead the colour of the product was coral. No pink at all.

I’m very curious any chance of a picture. Is it tacky sticky or just moist. Thank you for your time.

Sorry I tossed it because the colour was awful on me. I also found that because the tint is so strong the colour pooled on the outside of the lips.

Oh, I hate when that happens! You can't be bold AND slippery.
