This package came two days before the due date (sounds like I'm talking about the due date of a child ha)
The packaging is a bit smaller than the small boxes from Amazon and the three very cute features of this box is the Em Cosmetics logo tape sealing the box, the black and white geometric pattern on the cover of the box and the very vague and suspicious message inside the box that says "Good Luck!" like we're opening a box delivering the Death Note and not a couple of lip glosses lol
The minimalist packaging is very eye catching and chic but also bold in my opinion and I think it suits this company well!
On top of the packaging there is the colors of the lip glosses but they're a bit darker than the actual color of the lip gloss. I think their intention is to show the undertones of the color rather than the tone of the color which is very helpful. The font is small, minimalist and gold which looks like a color palette edits on tumblr (CUTE).
Again, the inside the packaging has their own color based on which lip gloss you purchased.

UHM THE TOP OF THE PACKAGING IS SO CUTE ARGH
Bottom of the delivery package and true colors of the lip glosses |
The dough foot applicator is pointed like the Elf lip glosses and the Maybelline Superstay Liquid Lipstick (my favoritE TYPE OF APPLICATOR!!!)
it's thin pointed and thin which allows precise application
Top: Red Jasper, Bottom: Caramel Glaze |
Here are the colors under natural lighting. Red Jasper is a Orangey-Brown toned red and Caramel Glaze (FAVE) is a Brown-Nude that definitely won't wash you out.
As for the consistency of the glosses, it's less thick than the NYX Intense Butter gloss and less pigmented but one wash of the color transforms the tones of your lips. It's very comfortable if you don't mind the plumping effect on the lips and the smell is very light and sweet (less strong than the Revlon Ultra HD Matte lipcolor)
On the spot of the application you can feel the gloss moisturizing the lips and you can feel that it's not long-wearing but it's extremely comfortable
Overall, I would rate the lip glosses 9.5/10
The price point is pretty good for the quality and I'm here for supporting online businesses!
The lip glosses are wearable and easy to use but can also amp up your look effortlessly!
The only downside of this lip gloss is that I don't really enjoy the tingly feeling (it's very faint and even less tingly than the Too Faced Lip Injections but I still don't like it. This is just a personal preference and has no effect on the quality of the product!)
