REVIEW: Missha CURRENTLY TESTS ON ANIMALS AND I CANNOT RECOMMEND THEM- Luminous Color Lip gloss *Mobile* (PK06 mini)



I DO NOT RECOMMEND MISSHA PRODUCTS

Since I first started getting into Korean cosmetics, I was unsure which companies tested on animals and was going on information provided by other reviewers and bloggers that turned out to be false 99% of the time. As of January 2014, Missha DOES test on animals and I cannot recommend them or their products due to that. On their website they claim to be "against animal testing" but as we know, many companies say this, but still test. KARA Korea has a list of all Korean brands that have registered with them as a cruelty free brand. Missha is one of the brands that has refused. If you send them a question about it, they will say that they do not test and then proceed to not answer any other questions.

Review: Missha Luminous Color Lip Gloss *Mobile*
This was only like $2 with a soompi order, which is good because this "mobile" lip gloss is TINY! (2.5 g)
Retail is...wait for it...$6.99 (7 color options)
It is however, adorable, the strap attaches securely to the bottom, and apparently, like many Korean beauty products, contains SFP (10)

Color: Pink shimmer/glitter -PK06
Ease of use: Screw off top with spongey lip applicator brush
Actual color: Almost completely sheer, the glitter shows up subtly as super shine.
Effect: Shiny, very natural looking, pretty much no color but alot of GLOW
Texture: Not sticky! ^_^
Size: Tiny tiny tiny...won't last long! Sized as a sample, priced as a regular size lip gloss.
The regular size is $19.99 and comes in 14 color options.

Conclusion: Very cute, gorgeous shiny effect, but waay too high priced for something Missha gives out as a free *sample* with a $40 order.
If you're looking for a gloss with color, this isn't it, and I have to imagine with all the products out there, you can get this shiny effect for much less...
