Gisou Honey Infused Lip Oils Gloss Hour Edition Hydrating Non-Sticky Lip Gloss Set with Raspberry Swirl Bee-llini Peach

I picked up the Gisou Honey Infused Lip Oils Gloss Hour Edition set (Raspberry Swirl, Bee-llini Peach, Glazed Plum) knowing that I already love their lip oils (Glazed Plum is already a favorite of mine). These wear more like a lip treatment + gloss than a typical tinted oil. The honey and sodium hyaluronate along with lots of botanical oils offer amazing skin conditioning benefits, really hydrating, softening, and smoothing the lips. To me, all three smell very similar, like fruity candy (watermelon jolly rancher vibes) mixed with a soft, toasted marshmallow cream sweetness. Not perfumey or "floral" honey, more fun, fruity, and gourmand. The shade / finish for all three is sheer and glossy. Bee-llini Peach is a peachy nude in the tube but mostly reads like a clear gloss on my natural lip color, which is darker pink. Raspberry Swirl has a slight, cool pink tint, but is still largely clear and glossy on my lips. And Glazed Plum adds sparkle that makes it look even more glossy and juicy. If you're expecting strong color payoff, these are more in the sheer, glassy territory (some other Gisou shades like Milky Mocha have more visible pigment). For the formula & treatment effect, the texture is coating and protective without being sticky. It feels very nourishing, and it genuinely helps my dry lips. These soften and loosen flaky skin and leave the lips underneath feeling and looking hydrated and smoother. The packaging is also stunning. The oils come in curved glass bottles that nest together, and the gift box is sturdy and beautiful. Each lip oil is also individually boxed inside the main set. If you want a non-sticky, high-shine lip oil that functions like a thick, hydrating lip treatment, this set is excellent, especially for dry lips and anyone who loves a glossy, hydrated finish.

Argh, I love Gisou glosses. They're pricey but works like a high quality lip gloss oil should. This is my third go-around and at this point I’ve basically tried every shade they make. They’re simple and very low pigment, especially on pigmented lips like mine, but the formula is so good that I honestly don’t care. They go on smooth, feel amazing, and give PERFECT juicy, plump shine without being over-the-top. No weird taste, no tackiness, and the hydration lasts. For a gloss, the staying power is solid and my lips always feel healthy after wearing them. Sticky glosses are an immediate no for me. I will toss them out without hesitation if they are sticky. Gisou never crosses that line. The scents are pleasant but not overpowering, just enough to notice and enjoy. Scent-wise: Raspberry Swirl smells faintly like artificial bubble gum Bee-llini Peach leans more vanilla with a soft peach note Glazed Plum oddly reads more peachy than plum to me They’re all subtle, but definitely different from each other fragrance wise. (FYI, their mocha lip gloss shade is the best smelling, like chocolate cake!) I like the attempt at variety in the set. Glazed Plum is full-on shimmer fun. I’m wearing Bee-llini Peach in the photo, but honestly, on my lips you can’t tell much difference since Gisou glosses aren’t pigmented. Also worth mentioning: for gifting - the packaging is gorgeous and the glass bottles are total chef’s kiss. Very pretty, very giftable. Read more
