This item does not sting and does not cause discomfort.

Yes...my brush was a bit out of sorts when I first got it (looked like a paint brush that had a bad day). But, after a few uses it seemed to be okay.

well, with my sample that I recieved and the normal size that I recieved, I had in both a sponge foot brush and not the one with the bristles. I read that many other customers had recieved the large product with the bristles brush applicator. I ordered mine online so I just wonder if that is why I recieved the sponge foot brush. I hope this may help you. I'm not sure if I am the only one who recieved a brush like this but I do like like either brush applicators. ^_^

It isn't sticky at all. It's more moisturizing like a chap stick then a gloss.

I've got the gloss in Barely Legal as well and love it. It takes a few minutes to set in nicely and it becomes ethereal looking. From what you said, I must have the one you're favoring. Mine is a nice pink color, just as they describe it as something like marshmallow pink I believe.
So the other gloss you bought was peachy? And you're sure its Barely Legal and not another shade misplaced in the slot where Barely Legal was supposed to be? If not and you've gotten a noticable discrepancy between shades you should find a way to contact Too Faced directly. If it is marked Barely Legel maybe it needs to be shaked and mixed up better or maybe even the gloss got stickered incorrectly. The different applicator is strange too, and its definitely not a different type of gloss within the brand? I'm not an expert on the brand, maybe they changed applicators and altered the formula a bit? Strange, makes me curious. Maybe return the peachy shade and try purchasing Barely Legal online where it comes from a warehouse...? Good luck!!

get real. glosses really can't be long lasting, that's what separates a gloss from a lipstick. texture. period. glosses will next last like a lipstick. most glosses that are tackier or stickier then to be smacked off sooner than ones that are smoother and a bit thinner which makes some tend to say they are "long lasting," which really they just "last a bit longer" than others. a gloss is a gloss. its smooth, shiny and meant to give sheer color for the most part, its not a lipstick. some glosses give more fuller color than others though but they do not impart the coverage or wear of a lipstick. they never will. if you want to enhance the wear somewhat, use a reverse lipliner and use korres lip scrub nightly and use a lip primer first, it will HELP it stay a bit longer.

Pillow Talk has a very subtle sparkle.

Never tried buxom, guess that will be on my "To Try" list.

The plumping is basically menthol. It's not very strong at all, it honestly doesn't really "tingle," either/ If she has dry lips though, I wouldn't suggest it, it might make her lips a little dryer. I would suggest the Boxum Lip Pluming Polish, it feels like a menthol chapstick, and feels better then a lip balm :)
