Such a pretty colour - a sweet pink with a touch of warmth to it. Very similar on me to the shade 'Papaya' (maybe a little more pink, a little less coral.) The mini size is clutch bag-friendly, although it works out really expensive considering you only get a tiny amount of product and a whole lot of plastic. Sugary, candyfloss smell which I could take or leave, and a silky, shimmer-free, high gloss finish. I love the brush tip (I don't think I could go back to using a doe foot), though the click mechanism is awkward and wasteful. My other grievance is that I find these glosses tend to bleed a little - even when worn with lip liner, primer or powder along the lip line. (Not a problem I've experienced with other brands.)

Gumdrop is described as a vibrant pink by Stila. However, as all of their lip glazes are sheer (I like sheer glosses), this one is a sheer vibrant pink. I didn't think I'd like this because I'm really subdued with anything that goes on my face - I'm the ultimate fan of neutrals, so grabbing for a "vibrant pink", sheer or not, didn't sit well with me. However, I was wrong. Pinks can look so wrong on me (I'm light, have pink and yellow undertones, with mid-toned pink lips.) They're often too warm (like starfruit lip glaze was for me) or too light on me and wash me out (like grapefruit lip glaze) but this one was as perfect a pink (besides pink nudes, those look good too) as I've ever found for myself. It adds a livening MLBB pop to my face.
The scent is pleasant, too! It kind of does smell like gum drops, but the first thing I thought of when I smelled it was just sugar. It reminded me of the brown sugar lip glaze's scent, but without its warmness. However, what I find as a pleasant scent might not be pleasant to others. For reference, my other favorite scents of the lip glazes are Vanilla and Brown Sugar. I really like this glaze.

I like the concept of this lipgloss.I like to twist the applicator for some reason.The color I have is Gumdrop and it is a orangey pink(coral almost) that is very flattering and kind to those who have a tan.It is slightly sticky but not so horribly sticky like Mac lipglosses.

Although I'm not a huge fan of the lip glaze products, I love this one! It is a great color on my AA caramel coloring, bubblegum pink but not too cool-toned, and smells like cotton candy - so delicious! Good staying power, not too sticky (although I find with the glazes that you have to use a fair bit of product, or layer, because otherwise it feels a bit glue-y). One other thing that irks me about the glazes is the applicator and click-up mechanism - arrgh! When will companies realize that this method sucks? You click forever before anything comes out, and when you do it too much, it glops everywhere. Yuk.

This sheer candy/bubblegum-pink color looks absolutely fabulous on me, not too light or too heavy - a gorgeous, sheer, most flattering hint of pink. It came in a set of 6 mini's I have MAYBE an inch of product in a thin pen. Can't find it anywhere but eBay, where it's way too expensive for what anyone's asking. Does anyone know of a gloss of the same or very similar color in a different brand? One lippy off for Stila's stupid click pens with barely any product - what a waste of space and plastic, it drives me crazy!

I agree with the previous reviewer. This is a sort of "yellow pink", i.e pink with a hint of coral that makes it a little more vibrant and interesting compared to a typical pink, i.e stila grapefruit. It has a very glossy-almost wet, shimmer-free finish. The smell is a little OTT but it fades away quickly and the texture is quite sticky-comparable to MAC lipglasses. The pen applicator is not my favorite but it does not ruin it for me. Overall, it is quite nice, especially for summer/spring but nothing too exciting.

I actually really like this. It reminds me of fruit punch but with a hint more vibrancy and maybe a hint of coral in it if that makes sense?
I find that it can be quite pigmented if you make it a little thicker in application. The smell is quite sweet, and a little overpowering at first but otherwise I really like it and am going through it quite fast as it is the perfect color for me (I find pinks a bit hard to pull off if they are barbie-ish). Perfect for summer as a pop of pink on my lips.

This is one underwhelming Lip Glaze. The mini click-tube doesn't work as well as the larger ones, and the color (bright pink in the tube) is virtually nonexistant on my lips. The formula is fine, but I'd rather spend my money on a lip gloss that has more color to it.
