nope [SEP] this just did not work for me on any level i have heard alot about this type of gloss and looked forward to giving it a try i followed the directions and put the gel on my lips it was difficult to apply evenly and was very thick and sticky after leaving it on for some time i tried to peel it off but nothing really peeled it just was stuck and i ended up having to wash it off with a washcloth what i was left with was no visible difference in color whats so ever i was pretty disappointed and this ended up in the trash
