I have this and the Cinnamon Buns. Strangely the Cinnamon Buns is a better color on me, this one veers very orange on my NC15 skin.
However, I like the taste and the texture. As others have mentioned, this line of glosses is really sticky, so if you don't like sticky (I do though) you might want to try something else.

Wow! This lip shine is amazing! I recieved this as a Christmas present from my friend a year back and I have to say it's awesome. I agree with the previous reviewer before me, it does have glitter but it is so fine it just creates more shine. Love the smell! Also when I applied it, I tasted a little bit by accident an it also tastes just like it smells. It does have a bit of orange undertone too. The only thing it is sticky, it doesn't bother me but it may to others. I have about half left and I'm not big about having 'disco ball lips' but this would be worth re-purchasing!

This is a great lipgloss. I got it as part of the philosophy birthday girl set (which comes with the matching shower gel in an absolutely adorable cardboard canister). As almost everyone before me has said, this smells like yummy vanilla cake batter. Vanilla is one of my all-time favorite scents for lip products, so this is right up my alley. But what I really love about this is the way it looks on my lips. It is incredibly shiny without being overly sticky. In the tube, it looks glittery, but the glitter is so, so fine that it makes my lips look extra shiny instead of glittery. All in all, this is a great product and one I would consider repurchasing when I run out.

I agree with what someone else said, it smells like cake batter. I adore vanilla scents so I was very eager to purchase this. This is probably my least favorite lipgloss from Philosophy. Mostly because the scent isn't in my taste. It works well though, and gives a really light shimmer which is nice. I seem to be collecting their lipglosses....

I too typically love cake smells but hate vanilla. This one is the best of both worlds. I love it. Smooth, not too sticky, not too glittery and tastes amazing.

Received this with the bodywash as a birthday gift. I don't like the typical artificial-vanilla fragrance that everything labeled "vanilla scent" seems to smell like. However, I found this to really smell like cake batter - and I like it! Basically it's a clear gloss with flecks of golden glitter, very pretty and nice over lipstick as well. My only issue with this is the packaging. I left it on a counter overnight and when I went to pick it up the next day some of it had oozed out, yet the cap was on tight so obviously the packaging is flawed. I'm not about to put it in my purse or even a make up bag as I don't want lipgloss-goo to get all over everything else. I have to keep in on my vanity, standing up, for fear of a leak which is rather inconvenient, especially when we're talking about a lip gloss. It is a nice but not nice enough that I'd have purchased it for myself and with the leak issue I definitely wouldn't be interested in getting another.

Going on a 3rd tube of this, having also tried Sugar Cookie and the holiday Angel,all delicious and yummy baked goods scent, but VBC is my favorite as it is the thickest, stickiest, and strongest scented gloss. I love using it at night, after washing and moisturizing my face and lips, then sealing in the moisture on my lips. The cozy scent helps me dream. And I wake up usually, with pretty ,shiny lippies!
Also used when ever I want a moist shine. I like the heavy tacky feel, then I know its hugging my mouth.
Great price, and one tube lasts forever.

This is one good smelling gloss. It really does have that Vanilla Cake batter smell and has a sweet taste. The consistency is thick but not bad. You don't need much as it is very glossy. It kept my lips moisturized all day while outside in the cold. It put a nice protective layer on that guarded against wind burn. Couldn't ask for a more dive smelling gloss for us Foodie smell lovers. I use this over a lip tint as it really has no color, just some glossy sparkles.

This is a very glossy gloss! I know that sounds kind of stupid, but honestly, it is one of the smoothest, shiniest lip glosses I've ever used. The gloss itself is a bit more fluid that most other tube glosses, so it is a little more gloopy in texture but not in a bad way. It's pretty sheer but with cute little gold glimmery bits, coats very evenly and smoothly and layers well. It is a tiny bit tacky but not really sticky (unless you put on a tonne of it on I guess) but it is not the longest lasting gloss ever. It does however, smell delicious! I have this in Raspberry Mousse as well, and both flavours smell good enough to eat... Yum!

I bought this mostly for the taste/scent. It smells and tastes exactly like it sounds. Very good, especially if you love foody products. As for the color, it's mostly clear with a little gold shimmer. Easy to wear and I think it'd suit everyone. It's very moisturizing and stays on my lips a long time. It is sticky but not overly so. The packaging is cute and doesn't leak. I'd buy again and recommend to a friend!

The smell is downright divine. The color is okay, not sure if it really compliments my skintone or not, even though it's pretty sheer. But this lip gloss is a bit too gloopy for my taste, and it just doesn't last.

Overall, i do love this lip shine by philosophy. The scent is delightful, it smells like (the always too sweet to eat) frosting that is usually found on top of our birthday cakes. everytime i have one of those cakes, the smell of the frosting makes me want to stick my finger in the cake and lick off some frosting. but everytime i do, i realize that its waaaaaay too sweet to actually eat. This lip shine allows me to enjoy the frosting without cringing from the aftershock of sweetness. i love this lip shine and i buy them in bulk and i have them stocked up. i give this to my friends on their birthdays along with a card. Perfect present and not too costly. oh, and like all the other philosophy lip shines, this lip shine gives a beautiful sheen to my lips, its not sticky, and its very moisturizing.

I love this lip gloss. The scent just makes you wanna get up and make a vanilla cake! Lol. The only bad thing about this lip gloss is when you purchase, its not 100% full, there's only like 80% of the product in the tube, but deff. one of the best smelling glosses around!

I adore this lip gloss - yes it is sticky, and when you wear your hair out it will undoubtedly get stuck to it - but it smells (and tastes!) gorgeous and wears really well; it's actually the best wearing lip gloss I've ever owned. On lips, it is slightly tinted and super shiny, with a tiny hint of sparkle, and the slanted applicator end makes it so easy to put on (you only need to use a tiny amount). It is expensive, and I haven't been able to find it on special anywhere, but the tube does seem to be lasting a long time, so is good value for money. Will definitely repurchase.

I love the smell of this lipgloss, it's very sweet smelling like vanilla cupcakes. It goes on smooth as long as I put something on before it, like chapstick. If my lips are dry it can be even more tacky then it already is. There is no color but, it is high shine, and it last awhile as long as I am not eating, drinking or kissing. Ha! Overall, I like the scent, love the packaging, and the shimmer it adds. Great for an everyday simple lipgloss. It's definitely not a staple in my makeup bag. Great as a gift though!

I bought this on a whim when I was returning something at Sephora. Lately Philosophy products have been such a let down. I feel like their stuff is over priced and fake smelling. With that said, this is a "hit or miss" smell for me. Sometimes it smells like gross melting plastic vanilla cake (when i first apply), sometimes it smells delish (a little after i apply). Anyhow, I like it well enough as it is moisturizing and feels thick but not sticky on my lips. In the tube it's a golden, sparkly color, but on my lips its shiny/clear. I would buy again if i had money to spare, but aside from that I think it's overpriced scented gloss. continued >>

I got this as part of a set called "Fresh from the oven" along with red velvet cake lip gloss and vanilla cake lip gloss.
This looks a warm yellow in the tube (like the see-through tube, you know where you are with it), and comes out a pale peach, but is barely noticeable, there are gold shimmers in this, and it looks fine on my pale lips. The gloss is quite sticky, but I like that, I feel that it makes the gloss last and "stick" onto the lips through a drink and a snack which it does with ease.
It does smell and taste of very sweet cake mix and it is a bit too sickly, so 1 lippy off for that.

I really like this gloss! I love the squeeze tube w/slanted tip applicator, and I LOVE the gold sparkles! Something else I love about this gloss is the fact that I don't have a craving for anything sweet, because I feel like I feed my sweet fix, which is nice because it's a completely healthy (bakery) sweet fix! I also love the fact that it's sticky because for me if the gloss is thick and sticky it stays on longer! I absolutely love this gloss!

I really love the scent and taste of this, but it's just too sticky. I can't wear my hair down when I've got this on. This does not happen with most of my other lip glosses. It's tough because I love the idea of it and the scent/taste so much, but the stickyness is just too difficult to get over.

I guess I'm the minority here since I don't LOVE this product. It goes on way too sticky for my taste. And my boyfriend says it's like kissing plastic. The smell is a little off for me also.
