Maple Blondie

Maple Blondie is a light slightly-orange pink.

I have not yet met a product with a more appropriate name -- except, maybe, the Too Faced Chocolate Bar Palette. These glosses are so creamy, so buttery, so melty, and so not sticky.

The formula is thin but buildable, and doesn't leave much of a remnant on a glass if you drink. They smell like pastries but unfortunately have no detectable taste. It isn't the longest lasting gloss, but you can always reapply.

The tube is so pretty and simple, very typical of NYX packaging. It's nearly identical to their Soft Matte Lip Cream tubes, just the lid color is different.

CONCLUSION

Everybody loves these glosses, and I can't believe I waited this long to try them. They really are as great as everybody says they are, and so cheap!
