This is gonna date me because I remember when this same packaging and formula --- looking identical to what it is today --- when it was manufactured by Coty, the cosmetic brand I grew up watching Mom apply! I became re-acquainted with this product as a CoverGirl brand in high school and this shade in Bronze Goddess has been my "lip bronzer" of choice since. Don't let the dark orange color in the tube fool you. It's a bronzy, copper not-too-bright shade that will complement warm skin tones of all types. This is the lip tint I like to wear most in the summer and fall and because its sheer and moisturizing it can be applied under and over other lipsticks without damaging the lasting power of a lipstick the way a typical lip balm can and does (in my experience). Now for the bad news: While this shade in the distinctive yellow tube is not discontinued it has been joined by a bunch of pink/red/plum tones in recent years and most retailers that I see simply don't stock the "Bronze Goddess" shade anymore. Walgreen's is one exception I've found in my area to still stock this shade. Get it while you can find it!

This was the first "lipstick" I ever bought (in grade 9 - 11 years ago) and I was only allowed to wear it since it wasn't a "real lipstick", but sheer. This stuff is AWESOME. I'm not a big fan of covergirl products and have owned tons of lipglosses/stains/balms since, but lipslicks provides just the right amount of sheer colour and sparkle, goes on super smooth, and can be layered to add more colour. You get a lot of product for the price, it lasts long and hint of bronze is a super flattering colour on darker-skinned ladies. This is my go-to summer lip product!

I love the tint of these Cover Girl lipslicks. I love the color too. The darker the better.

I love this - it is great for the "not too made up" look (which, for me, is all the time). Plus, I can reapply it easily without a mirror at my desk at work. I was kind of surprised how nice it looked against my pasty pale skin. And you really can't go wrong for the price - plus, I seem to see this product for BOGO often.

What a great find! It's the perfect glossy sheer bronze lipstick that looks almost like a lipgloss. Similar to Chanel's Aqualuminiere formula, actually. But only a few bucks! And it looks beyond sexy with a tan face.

I LOVE this color. I don't love the smell/taste, however, which is too bad. Has that icky lipsticky smell. But the color is lovely- gives a "just bitten" look, IMO. Nice hint of shimmer, too. Doesn't last very long, and the tube is a little long and bulky for tactful reapplication in public, but I think the great color makes up for it for me.

Actually, I think the packaging isn't anything special--but, mine hasn't broke or chipped and I've been carrying it to work everyday in my purse. Product seems to work very well, especially for a drugstore brand. Seems Cover Girl has revamped their products for the better.

This is a nice, natural (sheer) bronze gloss from the drugstore. It's not going to get raves from me for two reasons; it REALLY disappears fast - yes gloss goes away quickly but I have some that last much much longer than this- and two, the tube is so cheap it practically cracked the first day I had it in my purse.

I love the feel of these lip-slicks the texture is very smooth. But I'm not to crazy about this color against my skin tone. Its kind of a reddish-bronze, so it would look awesome on a darker skin tone but with my white-girl skin I can't pull it off. I have to admit that I like my Shimmering Sandstone Lip-Slick better...

This is really nice for a drugstore lip product. I have repurchased this particular shade three or four times--it looks very natural, yet better than your plain ole naked lips! :-)

This is a great product, and a great color. Bronze Godess (formerly hint of bronze) is a perfect coppery/peach tone on me, and always looks nice. Feels good, not even a little sticky.

I don't like Cover Girl cosmetics - something about the quality, colors, etc that I don't like. I read about this in Lucky magazine and figured - Why not? It's cheap and if I don't like it no biggie. This really is a nice "hint of color" product and I when I say Hint of Color, I mean Hint of color. It's very sheer and glossy and the bronze color is a great natural look. The staying power stinks but let's face it - it's gloss it's going to come off. I find it stays nicely when I line my lips with MACs Spice lip Liner.....!

I tried this product in Hint of Red and found it to be a moisturizing hint of red shade. I have purchased this product twice already and enjoy it for that no makeup, very natural hint of color look. Does not last long, but most sheers don't. The packaging is very boring which takes away some of the appeal. It melts very easily as well.

I did not like the colour - was almost an orange on me. The testure; the colour is lasting and moisturizing. Also, the tube is too thick and you have to angle it in order to put it on.
