Makeup Academy Lip Gloss

Makeup Academy Lip Gloss
Shade 3
Approx price £1.00

I'm normally wary of buying makeup this cheap, but it was a few days before payday and I just had an urge to go shopping!  I prefer gloss to stick because my lips are dry and flaky.
I chose this shade because it appears to be a nice neutral shade that I could wear regularly to work.  It looks a pale brown/pink with flecks of gold.
When I first applied it I was impressed with the smell, it seemed delicious!  However, I later got a bit on my teeth and it tasted of vomit, so that put me off.
It does give a nice natural look but unfortunately the problem I have is (as with many glosses) it is a bit too sheer for my liking and appears transparent after a while.  You would have to top it up regularly to keep a sense of colour, and this makes lips feel tacky.
