this is a nice lipgloss with good color payoff, long stayinhg power, and a nice consistency. these are definatly not too thick or goopy but pretty lightweight on the lips. the only thing i dont like is the menthol flavor hence the star off. i love all the colors, acai boost is a fushia, go go goji is a creamy medium pink, acerola rush is a coral and pomegranate punch is a pinky red. as far as the packaging goes i dont find it hard to get equal emounts of clear and color out and the fuzzy tip doesnt bother me either. these are vegan which is the best part and i like a lot of tartes things.

Just bought this in Go Go Goji from sephora for 6$
First impression: The packaging is cute and there's a good amount of product for the price.
I like that you can control the ratio of color to gloss. The formula itself goes on smoothly, but is very sticky. It has a very nice minty cooling feeling that it gives to your lips but there is no taste (which is wonderful).
It's not overly pigmented, if if you choose more color over gloss, but it gives your lips a nice pinkish natural tint.
While the product is sticky, it does last quite a while.

Hands down one of the worst lip glosses I have ever purchased. The formula is way too goopy and sticky. The color- Go Go Goji- was a tacky and opaque hot pink. I hate the look and feel of this gloss. Plus, it's almost impossible to wash off.

Did not like this gloss. The applicator is fuzzy and gets dirty easily. Also, it's sticky and goopy. The color is okay (Acerola Rush) but it does not apply smoothly on my lips. Only redeeming quality is the minty scent. I much prefer the Tarte Vitamin-Infused Gloss, which is less sticky.

Although I'm not that keen on glosses, I couldn't say no to a tube of Acerola Rush, on sale at Sephora for $6. I love natural, clean, sheer peachy-pinks on my lips, so this was a good color match for my very warm, very fair complexion. I'm really not a fan of glosses in wand form, so I love that the product comes in a super-sleek tube with a doe-foot foam applicator. Besides the color, my favorite aspect of this product is the long lasting power, which outlasts eating and drinking. With lasting power, as is usually the case, this gloss is on the sticky side (which is why I prefer balms, which have the capacity to both apply smoothly and last a while), and I'm not a fan of the peppermint scent, taste, and mild tingle. For the price, however, I love this little product. I've had no problems in terms of where I need to squeeze in order to get the correct amount of pigment, and I would happily repurchase . . . but only on sale.

I recently purchased this on a whim at Sephora in the "acerola rush" which is a very pretty coral color and I have to say I really like it! I looove the minty coolness. . and it is super super shiny. The tube is also slim and delicate and fits great in my jeans pocket or purse. I also love that it has "good-for-you" ingredients and antioxidants. My tube was about $21 but I have to say I will probably buy it again when it runs out. I haven't experienced any dryness or flaking. I simply line my lips in a nude liner and then fill in with this gloss and BAM looks like I am ready for the runway!

After reading that most of my favorite lipsticks have LEAD in them, I went searching for a healthy option. I found Tarte Double Dose. I purchased the Pomegrante Punch. It is a nice pink rosy color. It also has a mint flavor. I guess I expected it to be pomegrante flavor, but the mint is nice. This gloss is a bit sticky, but it is really shiny. I have to reapply often, but at least I can take comfort in the idea of ingesting pomegrante and not lead.

I bought this in Go Go Goji after reading some good reviews, but unfortunately my experience with it was not so good, so I sent it back. The packaging is really cool and pretty, and you can control how pigmented or sheer it comes out by squeezing at different points along the tube, but it takes some experimentation to get it right. I'm fair-skinned, and this particular color looked really garish on me. It was kind of like a lipstick with poor, uneven coverage topped with a sticky lipgloss. Definitely not worth it for the price.

I received this gloss as gratis, and I'm glad it was free. While I wanted to love this gloss so much because the color was beautiful, I had to stop using it. The gloss dried out my and and several other castmembers' lips [I asked them if it was just me, but it wasn't]. The lipgloss was also ridiculously sticky, and I rarely ever complain about a gloss being too sticky. While I am happy about the antioxidant ingredients, this gloss is just not for me.
