I have never really liked nude colors for my lips but surprisingly I liked this gloss. It goes on very shiny making my lips appear fuller and the color looks good with my coloring. It is quite sticky and tingles on application, so if you are bothered by these things do not buy, if not, it is a nice lipgloss to wear for any occasion.

Holy cow! This is the prettiest most amazing gloss I have ever used. I have about 30 glosses and this one is at the top. I found this while hearing a youtube beauty guru suggest it. I've never really had luck with pinky beige lipglosses as my lips are pretty pigmented so that type of colour tends to make me look like a corpse.
This is the one exception! It is so moisturizing and I am not left with dry pieces of skin on my lips. It is a thick goopy gloss and not a thin runny gloss. Because of the thickness of this gloss it makes it a lot more long lasting than my other glosses. A bit of it still stayed on after I ate.
The color looks great on its own or even paired over a nude type lipstick (Rimmel's Airy Fairy, Nude Delight). It tingles just enough but after about 30 minutes the tingle fades away. I wouldn't say it gave me super plump lips but what it did do is bring out my natural lip colour, soften and even out my lips which made them look more attractive. Even after the gloss wore off I noticed my lips still were soft that evening. The only downside was that the price was a bit more than I am use d to spending ($23CAD).
I will definetly repurchase this colour and will look at other colours in this brand, too!

This color is definitely one of my HGs. It's a great neutral. Very close to my natural lip color, but better. I got it as part of a holiday gift set, and I will definitely repurchase this color when it runs out. Love it.

I used to not like this lip gloss, actually I used to hate it. I got it awhile ago put it in a drawer and never used it. The formula was sticky and the color didn't apply evenly. I tried it again and its not so bad. Its not as sticky as i remember it. It is a plumping lip gloss so it tingles on your lips. It has a little bit of a bitter taste that lingers if it gets on your tongue. I think it smells kinda funky too. But the gloss definitely growing on me.

BEST Nude, I have lots of BUXOM glosses and this one quickly became my favorite. Great alone, adds enough color and is a great nude. I have pretty pigmented lips so it is hard for me to find a great nude, and this is just amazing. I even layer it over other pinks, corals, and nudes and it gives a sexy pout!

I love this Buxom gloss. Perfect nude color for me! Great scent, nice smooth texture, the only drawback is the bulky package that if you check out the amount in it isnt as much as it may appear. Still would purchase again! Love it!

Perfect nude pink from BL with a hint of shimmer to it! Somewhat similar to the new 'Samantha'.

I love this lipgloss! The color is fab! It's what I wanted Mac Underage to be and sadly it wasn't. It is the perfect pinky nude gloss!

I like this nude color gloss with shimmer. It does have a refreshing peppermint feeling when youput it on and gives a slight fullness to my lips. It has a doe foot applicator and a sticky consistency. It is a expensive gloss for 18 dollars but its a large tube. I like to layer it on top of my rimmel spotlight beige lipstick.

I love this lipgloss. Received it as a deluxe sample at Sephora. Wow, what a beautiful nude color. I don't mind the tingling effect it gives either, I actually kind of like it. Alone it is a beautiful light nude, but I love it paired with Revlon Soft Nude lipstick. My HG nude lip. I receive so many compliments when I wear the two together. Will definitely repurchase when my sample tube is gone.

Long lasting and lacking in the typical tacky/sticky feeling of most glosses, Buxom is a smooth, slightly tingly formula that gives lips a high-gloss shine. This particular color is just a few shades darker than my own natural lips, which makes it perfect for other medium/fair skin tones. Though I can get a plumper look with a DuWop Venom product, this provides some plump, with color and incredible shine, all in one.

I am pretty disappointed in this color :( I wanted to love it after seeing such great reviews, but it is just too thick and sticky for me. The color is so-so, I feel like it could easily be duped. It does give lips a nice shine and the tingly isn't bad, but I don't see much plumping at all. For $18, I wouldn't say this is an amazing product.

I got this as a sample with my sephora order online. I have one that is a red color that I honestly dont care for but my sister swears by this stuff. I tried this on and I love it! I love the feeling it gives, like..... winterfresh gum on my lips! (Weird explanation I know, but that is EXACTLY what I think of!) Anyway, I am not a big lipstick person, and with this lipgloss, I look completely finished! This is in my top 3 contenders for HG lipgloss!

I got this yesterday as a sample from Sephora, and I was expecting to *not* like it as I thought it wouldn't work with my cool, fair skin. Well, as my 6-yr old insisted on being able to finish his juice in the car before it started moving, I decided to try Sandy on right then and there and wow! Beautiful! Perfect nude gloss, great smell and flavor - all around a winner!

HG lipgloss- I love this! I reach for this more than any other gloss I own. I have lots of Buxoms- great formula and staying power. I like the tingle effect too. But this color is the perfect nude- I'm fair w/ blonde hair and this color is very flattering. I hope they never stop making it.

I just got this as a deluxe sample from Sephora and am shocked at how wearable and pretty it is. I usually stray away from nude milky glosses because my skin is pretty dark but this was a sheer pink on my lips and on top of MAC Fresh Brew- the perfect nude. It had just enough opacity to hold its own but sheer enough to complement a lipstick.

It is a plumping gloss so be ready for that menthol-y tingle (I find all shiny glosses make my lips look fuller but this one made them particularly full & it lacks that sting a lot of lip plumpers have).

The actual scent is a smooth creme brulee one; not sugary-vanilla sickening though. The texture is pretty sticky and like other sticky glosses, made my lips peel. Standard doe foot applicator. Overall, a very impressive sample but not worth full price.
