It is basically a lipgloss. When you apply it, it leaves a really pretty coral color on your lips. I would say the color disappears pretty fast (it holds up max 1 hour w/o drinking or eating) but the glossiness stays a bit more. I use it over tints, I found it is the best way to bring the most out of it. This item is your ordinary drugstore product. It does have a scent btw, I don't really like it because it is that cheap fruity scent.
