A sheer red lipgloss with a very nice shimmer to it. It has a brush applicator and is slightly vanilla sented Good staying power, very glossy and very sexy Will definitely repurchase.

I originally bought this to use with Lady Bug a few summers ago. I recently found it again after cleaning out my makeup collection. After applying it I remembered why it got sent to the bottom of a...

This is my go-to gloss to top off my HG red lipstick (Lady Bug), I love the brush on this. It's not sticky like Russian Red gloss so I like this more. It adds depth due to the red glitter in the...

I like that I can use this to create a very bright or very subtle lip. I have used it alone and over lipstick. The consistency is not as sticky as Lipglass for me. I would buy it again. It is a...

Interesting, in reading other reviews I realized that yes, the staying power of this gloss isn't all that great, for a color I use rarely, I've probably gone though half the tube already in just...

I wouldn't give this five lippies, because I'm not too excited about the way this looks without anything else on. It's a really sheer pinkish, reddish wet colour on the lips. However, after I've...

This was exact that I was looking for. A red gloss that I can use as a stain. I have fairly pigmented lips so this cherry red gloss did wonders to my lips. It gave me a nice tint and shine on...

I really like Venetian lustreglass. It's not sticky, it doesn't feel goopy. The staying power isn't too great, but it's a very pretty color if you like red lips but don't want to bust out MAC...

I LOVE this gloss. It is a sheer cool red that makes the lips appear full and so glossy. I like to layer this over other red lipsticks to get a juicy look. I find it to be a good replacement for...

So far this is my favourite MAC lipgloss, if you put it on thinly it looks like it is a pinkish colour, but if you layer it on a bit more thickly you get a beautiful red! Lots of people have...

Sheer pink based red gloss, comparable to Dior's now dead Caramel Apple Diorkiss (though not as thick, or pigmented). Because Venetian is a Lustreglass, it isn't particularly sticky or long...

I found an old tube of this in my car- it has to be over six months old- and tried it and remember just how beautiful the color is. It's just a sheer wash of cherry red, flattering on most skin...

I agree with the other reviews in that this color goes on so sheer that it's best to apply this over other lipsticks or glosses when you want to add a red hue. By itself I'm not a fan. I do like...

On the search for a red, the MAC counter girl suggested this for me. It is rather nice for evening wear, but I am not big on the sheerness of it. One drink and it's gone from your lips. I actually...

I'm a fan of MAC lip glosses and this is no exception. Venetian is a beautiful bright cherry red color that makes your lips look positively luscious. It applies quite sheerly but still gives lips a...

I wanted a red so I asked the girl at the counter and she suggested this one because it was middle of the road. However its just still too bright so it sits in my makeup/tackle box. I like Moistly...
