When writing a review for lipstick or lipbalm, that the flavour is always stated. I just read some reviews for something I want to try, and less than half of the reviews were of much use in that regard.
For something that goes on your mouth it's helpful to know if it's sickly sweet or fruity, plain or strong .... thanks

i agree for lipbalm but not so much for lipstick - i don't think i could say that my lipsticks have a flavour. I'll notice if it feels gross on my mouth but not a taste per se as I don't really lick my lips if I have lipstick on.
So I think it's fair to expect it for things that are meant to come in flavours, but not for lipstick, personally. Scent, yes. Flavour - not so much

Most of my lipsticks have no flavour. Only Lime Crime , the new ones have Vanilla cupcake scent but not flavour. Oh yes there is one I remember now is Karen Murrel True Love has a Cinnamon taste and scent.
Lip Balms yes definately flavour there. Only one I really liked is the EOS Blueberry . Tried a few.

Both of the Karen Murrell lipsticks that I own have the same strong orange & cinnamon scent, which I find very off-putting. I have a Dr Hauschka Novum lipstick that smells strongly of cloves (and I can't stand cloves), and two Revlon Balm Stain crayons that both smell like peppermint (they contain methol), but none of these lipsticks or stains actually taste like anything.
I do have two Glamourflage lip balms, one is chocolate scented and the other cherry scented. The chocolate one tastes very bitter if I lick my lips, while the cherry scented one tastes a bit like a sucker / lollipop.

I can see what you mean, some lip products have a distinct taste or flavour for example the EOS balms and some lipsticks can have a nice scent while others are quite horrible. If you don't like a product that tastes or has flavour/scent of vanilla then it is good to know before spending money on a product that you know you wouldn't wear.
I try to put scents or flavours into my reviews, however in my earlier reviews I may have missed this off oops.

Fair enough comment. I'd like to think from memory that I have listed scent and taste if any though I am not quite sure now. Definitely something I will make sure to add to my reviews in the future. I only notice taste really with lipbalms, not for lipsticks. I have two EOS ones at the moment, mint and honeydew. But they smell like they should, they the honeydew doesn't have a nice aftertaste.
