Island Kiss Puerto Berry Blush Lip Moisturizer Review

Island Kiss is an Indian brand, based in Goa which has been launched very recently with three-star lip moisturizers and one of them is the Puerto Berry Blush which I am going to review today. The first thing about the brand that caught my eye is the beautiful packaging (which I will discuss in details below) and the detailed description about each and every ingredient used in the product that has been so beautifully described on the website. There is hardly any Indian brand which concentrates on the product with so much detailing and for that I am really blown over by the brand "Island Kiss". Coming to the product, this is my favorite one among the three and read on to know more about the product in detail.

About Island Kiss Puerto Berry Blush Lip Moisturizer:

From the 2016 Coleca of lip moisturizers emerges the ravishing Puerto Berry Blush. Imagine sitting by the pool and eating lemon-strawberry sorbet. Your lips are tart, a bit stained - if you apply it several times - and fresh as if you've brushed your cheeks against a shrub. It is zippy, flirty and will satisfy lovers of colour.
Generous, chubby blooms of kokum butter and organic almond essential oil along with a cocktail of strawberry, raspberry and blackcurrant come together juicy and tart. Tropical sensuality opens with a burst of raspberry and the exotic, fruity aroma of Alphonso mango butter.

My Experience With Island Kiss Puerto Berry Blush Lip Moisturizer:

Starting with the packaging, I am in love with it and honestly speaking, it just can't be better. It comes it a cardboard box and is quite fancy to look at. Every information about the product has been well emblazoned on the outer packaging. The lip moisturizer comes in a plush slender tube with a deep berry red screw cap. The tube has a slanted tip and hence you won't have to use the lip brush or even fingers when you are on the go. Overall, I found the packaging extremely sassy, cool and adorable to the core.

The lip moisturizer has an oily-liquidy texture and therefore you require very little amount. The moment you apply more, it will start bleeding, especially the Puerto Berry Blush. The texture owes to the ingredients list which is mostly endowed with the goodness of Organic Carrot Seed Oil, Pure Castor Oil, Rich Vitamin E Oil, Organic Macadamia Nut Oil, Citrus Oil and Raspberry Seed Essential Oil. It is absolutely a no-brainer that with so many oils, it is bound to hydrate, moisturize and make the lips soft and supple all day long. The formula, though it claims to be lip moisturizer, appeals more like a gloss-cum-moisturizer to me due to the high glossy finish without any gaudy shimmers.

It has a sweet berry smell and if you accidentally lick the lips, you would get a very sweet taste due to the presence of Stevia. It has also been formulated with the Avocado Butter which is a highly penetrating emollient. The natural content of vitamin A and E promotes natural collagen production and work synergistically to improve your lips tone and texture. The Tropical Mango is regenerative as well as has skin-softening, soothing, moisturizing, and protective properties. These are completely petroleum free and this is what I thought is the best you can get. These are organic along with the goodness of SPF 15 that will protect your lips during daytime as well.

Coming to the shade, Puerto Berry Blush is a tinted pink cherry color which gives such a beautiful definition to the lips. The moment you apply on the lips, it will give you a fresh berry tint and stays on my lips for around 2-3 hours. Surprisingly, even after that, the tint stays giving a natural flush to my lips. If I re-apply the lip moisturizer, the color intensifies slightly. This is surely a favorite of mine and the color is subtle yet chic, which makes it perfect for summers. For the college to workplace, it can be sported anywhere.
