MOR Little Luxuries Lip Nectar in Lychee Flower

While I was having a browse through Myer last week, I made a beeline for the MOR section to have a play with their products and better acquaint myself with their scents.

My greedy little eyes fell on the MOR Lip Nectars in probably the most elaborate packaging I have ever seen encasing a lip gloss. Of course, I needed wanted to make it mine. I picked Lychee Flower because it was a beautiful colour, and one of the more pigmented glosses in their range.

Colour:

Lychee Flower deepened petal pink with no shimmer and an incredible glassy shine. So so beautiful.

It has quite good pigmentation for a gloss, with about 40% coverage with one layer.

Texture:

I found the Lip Nectars quite comfortable on the lips, although they do have quite a thick texture, and a moderate amount of tackiness similar in feel to MAC Lipglasses. Personally I don’t mind a little bit of tackiness because it usually means that the gloss is going to be longer wearing.

I’d make sure to tie my hair up if I’m wearing this on a windy day though!

I was pleasantly surprised to find that this is one of the longest lasting lip glosses I own. This gives me almost 2hrs of wear time before I need to reapply (average for glosses on me is 1hr).

These glosses are actually quite moisturising as well, which is great at the moment because the winter has not been kind to my lips.

Scent:

It might just be my nose, but I couldn’t really detect any scent at all on this gloss (maybe a slight plasticky lipgloss smell if I hold it right up to my nose). I find this a little strange seeing as MOR has a big emphasis on product scent, and their products are usually strongly fragranced.
