Gumball info:
Barcelona is the plumper (ingredient is in italics), but all of the color gumballs have the thick sunflower oil ingredient (in bold).
Info on the plumper...and she wrote that she is at least planning a sheer version-
Barcelona is a non-stinging plumper. We've added a special ingredient called Dipalmitoyl hydroxyproline which is an amino acid that's been grafted onto some palm oil. It's a very very good anti-oxidant, and it's extremely moisturizing. As a plumper it doesn't produce instant results like the kind that are based on cinnamon oil- it works by drenching your lips in moisture and stimulating the contraction of the collagen bundles in your lips. I find it's best to sleep in it for the full results. In testing it hasn't worked as a plumper for everyone, but as an ingredient it's a really nice one so even if it's not making you look like Angelina Jolie it's still doing great things for your lips.
Info on the oil-
The new ingredient is oleic/linoleic/linolenic polyglycerides- it's essentially a thick form of organic sunflower oil. Oleic, Linoleic, and Linolenic are the fatty acids that make up pretty much every vegetable oil. It's organic, EcoCert approved, non- hydrogenated, vegan, and non-GMO. I did some serious homework on this one, and it's not going to harm you or the planet. I've been working with it for about 6 months, and I love it. It's in there to make it thick, rich and creamy.
Ingredients:
BARCELONA-Castor oil*, oleic/linoleic/linolenic polyglycerides*, jojoba oil*, extra virgin olive oil*, avocado oil, candelilla wax*, beeswax*, cranberry seed oil, carnuaba wax*, Dipalmitoyl hydroxyproline, natural vanilla flavor. also contains: Mica, Iron Oxides, titanium dioxide, tin oxide
STOCKHOLM-Castor oil*, oleic/linoleic/linolenic polyglycerides*, jojoba oil*, extra virgin olive oil*, avocado oil, candelilla wax*, beeswax*, cranberry seed oil, carnuaba wax*, natural vanilla flavor. also contains: Mica, Iron Oxides, titanium dioxide, tin oxide
St. TROPEZ-oleic/linoleic/linolenic polyglycerides, jojoba oil, castor oil, avocado oil, carnuaba wax, cranberry oil, candelilla wax, hemseed oil, natural vanilla flavor, stevia. Also contains: Mica, Iron Oxides, Titanium Dioxide
TAHITIAN VANILLA-Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Castor Oil, Beeswax, Candelilla Wax, Jojoba Oil, Avocado Oil, Hempseed Oil, Raspberry Seed Oil, Pumpkinseed Oil, Carnuaba Wax

(I am pretty sure some of the ingredients in the last two are also organic.)

Re: New Gumballs are up!!!
I just got my parcel tonight (found it left outside my door). *sends hugs to Karen*
Tahitian Vanilla balm - I love it. The flavour is imperceptible. The texture is durable & weather proof. It's certainly food-proof and that's an impressive property for a protective balm. Black Labels moisturise or repair serious cracked lips; this new formula is protective and long-lasting. It's strength is that it lacks the slipperiness of other balms. That appeals to non-glossy-lippy wearing men and kids.
Barcelona / Stockholm - oh ho!
Interesting... At first encounter, this is a real contender to challenge the Black Label lip colours for their supremacy. It's almost as good but it's a little too waxy for my personal preference when compared to the Black Labels. I prefer it to the vegan formulas, certainly.
St Tropez - It's a luxurious lip cream and there's nothing about it to dislike. It's vastly better than any other lip gloss out there. I'd be doing cartwheels of joy at this liquid gloss as it excels past other liquids but, sorry - even this wouldn't get me off of your heavenly solid glosses. Awkward, that I am. I just don't like the awkwardness of applying and monitoring staying power of liquid lip products.
As always, everything's great. The plain balm is the outstanding formula for me for versatility and universal suitability. I'm still devoted to me good ole' Black Labels and Kisser Slickers though and very happy there, too.

Hi Ladies.
Why don't you input your thoughts about new gumball lippies in "Gumball Lippie Discussion Thread" that royalgoddessbeth made for this purpose.
Now we are talking about new gumballs here and there. I think it's useful to combine them in one thread.
Thank you.

Re: New Gumballs are up!!!
as always, cupcake took the words right out of my mouth!!!
literally!!
I am Loving Barcelona, the formula, look, feel, glossyness, everything is exactly what I would want in my lippy. So I haven't eaten yet with it on, but it's been on for 2 hours and looks like I just applied. I dont expect a lippie to last through eating, so I am happy with this.
I'll be trying trying Stockholm better tomorrow. Today I only just put it on to see the colour then I applied barcelona because I wanna see the lip plumping effects in the AM. So ya.
St.Tropez, Love this one as well. The colour is great, the feel is great. I'd get another one for sure, a lavendery one would be lovely.
ok, sorry for the sad excuse of a review, but suffice to say I love them all, !
thanks Karen!
