Lip-Talk 13 : Tony Moly Petite Bunny Gloss Bar in 08 Neon Yellow (SPONSORED)

Hellooo hellooo :D.

I'm proud to present to you : My very first beauty review (well, actually any review la) of 2016 hahaha. And the honored product (as you can already read from the title) is... #drumroll..
Tony Moly Petite Bunny Gloss Bar in 08 Neon Yellow
This product is kindly sponsored by ibeau.com ^^, thank you!

Tony Moly is one of the trendiest, easy to access (for Indonesian, at least!), affordable Korean cosmetic brands that i'm sure needs no introduction. They are known for their cute (not as in girly cute like Etude House products, but more in the loud, funny-cute kind of way) packaging. Although aesthetically i'm more into the girlier EH style, i am also quite drawn to Tony Moly's quirky charm.

Petite Bunny Gloss itself is not a new product (by far!), they've been around for years and i fell in love with these cute bunny sticks since they first launched-i have quite a few in my collection and this Neon Yellow (which is actually one of their newer color addition to the collection) is my newest one (but the first to be reviewed).
Petite Bunny Gloss Bar from ibeau.com arrived with a clear mica box, that's quite new because my older ones (which i purchased in both online shops and Tony Moly's counters) were sold without any boxes
Neon Yellow's bunny has this cute, squinty face-every single one has different expression and that totally adds to the charm!
Your brand new gloss bar should arrive with this little sticker to ensure its newness
Petite Bunny Gloss Bar comes in a small and slim plastick tube (around the size of my index finger and slightly longer), it's light weight and feels a little flimsy-almost toy like, to be honest
The color of the tube also indicates the color of the product inside
A yellow lipstick??? Eh, no-not really :p. I would describe Tony Moly Petite Bunny Gloss Bar as a tinted lip balm-and it's one of those fun color-changing type of lippie. Will show you the actual color of the gloss bar when worn in a little bit.
The tube contains 2g of products and that's the approximate length of the gloss bar. I know it's not easy to estimate the actual length from the photo (even i think it looks quite a lot in this pic hahaha) but it's pretty small really. Not that i'm complaining (it's only USD 4.41 in iBeau), it's not like i would ever be able to finish any lippie anyway hahaha
The wound up mechanism is not the best so if you have a Petite Bunny Gloss Bar, i would suggest you not to wind it up like i did in the pic. It was fine when i did it, but after using it a few times, i wound up the bar slightly longer than i usually do-it won't go back down no matter how many times i tried to rotate it back in! Later on when i used it again, the bar slide down by itself-but it's just better not to risk it! I guess the flimsy plastic packaging is an indicator that the mechanism wouldn't be the best either hahaha.

Petite Bunny Gloss Bar has a sweet, juicy fruity scent that i like a lot. If you're not a fan of scent on your lippie-don't worry. The scent is not very strong or disturbing, and you won't notice it after your apply it anyway.

Now let's the color and effect on my lips :
My dry, slightly cracked bare lips >.<
Instantly juicy pout with a slick of Petite Bunny Gloss Bar!
Like i said earlier, it's the color-changing type of lippie and it turned bright pink, almost fuschia-ish on my pale pink lips. The color is definitely not very strong or pigmented, but if you apply quite a lot then it's totally very noticeable and quite bright. It has a glossy (d'oh, the name already said so) finish but without the usual stickiness lip glosses have, the glossiness also very pretty and juicy-not the super oily type that might be annoying for some people. I don't have problem with hair sticking on my lips when the wind blows hahaha.

The color actually stays pretty long on me, and it leaves a stain so even after a heavy meal i'm always left with some color still (that's pretty surprising because i have very little faith in the staying power given the fact that it's not very pigmented and its glossy nature). But what i love the most about this gloss bar is the fact that not only it gives me a juicy looking puckers (and i happen to love the color too), but it also deeply moisturized my lips as well! At the end of the day my lips are no longer dry, they're supply and healthy like i've been putting on deep-moisturizing lip cares all day long!

One thing that does annoy me about this product is because it's a color changing stick, the actual color would be left on the tip of the bar and around the lip of the tube :
That's just messy looking and that disturbs me!!!
But other than that (and the flimsiness of the packaging), i love it!!!
The color is totally noticeable but still natural and soft! You can apply lightly for a softer result and pile it up if you like your color strong!

There are 9 colors in total (i have about... 4? I even lost count -___-) :
They describe the texture to be between a lipstick and a lipgloss, but i personally feel it's more of a tinted lip balm-a glossy type of lip balm, that is! The color is nowhere near pigmented enough to be called a lipstick. 

I really love my Petite Bunny Gloss Bar, it has a pretty color, gives healthy shine to my lips and helps my lips to get in better condition at the same time, what's not to love?

I would recommend this product to anyone looking for cute, affordable, light and glossy lip color that would also keep your lips healthy.

Not recommending it for those of you who are looking for pigmented lipsticks or not into toy-like packaging (i know it takes a specific taste to be able to appreciate the design!). 

Would i repurchase this (i would definitely buy it with my own money, in fact i already did before i got sponsored this!)? Not in the same color, but i'd love to collect every single one of them!

Tony Moly Petite Bunny Gloss Bars are available in ibeau.com for USD 4.41 (it's on sale!).

Should i review the other colors that i have?

    1. It's a well known Korean brand and has counters in Indonesia so i'm sure it has, but you can always check with the brand :)
