I bought Colin in bright red and I love it!! I think the packaging is absolutely hilarious and hot, you always get a laugh then an ooooh when you show the sexy fireman to people lol! The gloss feels really nice on my lips, not sticky at all and the color so fabulous it makes me confident. I'm definitely hooked on Colin;)

I absolutely love these glosses. I own Max (the surfer, which is a peachy color), and Colin (the fireman, a bright red). I got them on sale for about $5 each. I LOVE them. They go on beautifully, and are very glossy after you apply them, but settle down into a more flat version of the color after a while. They smell the Golden Grahms cereal, not a bad smell at all. I wear max every day, and sometimes mix it with Colin which looks really nice. Also, the packaging is adorable, it makes me smile everytime I use it. And the brush is very nice as well. I adore these, and though they are discontinued, continue to scour the Internet for them. I highly reccomend.

I bought this in Colin while it was on sale at Urban Decay & I absolutely love it! A lot of people say the smell is terrible, but I actually really like it. The brush is really nice and I love how it pops out on its own when you twist the top. The tube is nice and sleek and of course the holographic picture of a "stripping" guy is a cute touch.

I definitely want all of these!

Yes the smell is different but to say it's God awful is a little much... It smells more like Cocoa Puffs cereal to me and I don't think it takes away from the gloss at all. In fact, it's nice where everything isn't fruit scented and these are no different.

I am a huge sucker for packaging, and I love love these. Each one having a different "outfit" is bonus too and I love giggling like a 10 year old girl every time I re-apply... which is only every few hours as this stuff has pretty good staying power. It is a bit sticky, but most glosses are and as long as you don't over-apply there should be no issues.

SO sad these are being discontinued... I am slowly picking them up from various online sources in the different colors as I expect to be using these for a long while in the future... (:

UPDATE: I now love this and use it everyday. It is very glossy but I like that, especially in winter when my lips need more moisture. The tube is huge--I have been using this daily for months and there is still lots of it left. Overall, it was a better buy than I initially thought.

So, I got "Kirk" a neutral brown. I love UD but this one is not a winner IMO. It is very glossy and the color does not show up at all. It kind of feels like petroleum jelly but somehow more viscous. It is very moisturizing and the feel is pretty much identical to the old ELF 2 in 1 conditioning glosses that you can sometimes pick up at the dollar store. For $1 you can get the gold color which is a neutral shimmer moisturizing gloss.

ELF's Glossy Gloss is similar but so much better at a fraction of the cost. Try that one if you are looking for a good glossy lip gloss. I also prefer ELF's mineral lip gloss to this. Really, this is ridiculously mediocre for the price. I got it for only $6 and still feel ripped off because I could have bought 2 ELF lip glosses for this price and more on BOGO.

I liked the texture of this gloss, on my lips it felt comfortable and not too sticky, unfortunatly I found the taste and smell revolting so had to remove it soon after as both did not fade. I found the packaging cute but overall if I cant stand wearing it what is the point, esoecially as its not cheap.

If you can try this on before buying and if you like the smell/taste.

I got it for 5 dollars cuz it was on sale. the color i bought is jesse, which is a shiny purple-ish color. a lot of people complain about the smell and yes i agree with y'all, it does smell like syrup and it comes quite strong. if you dont like those kinda smell, this might not be the right gloss for you. as for me, i don't care about smell at all and it doesnt bother me. lip gloss is certainly sticky, even though people have very different definitions on stickiness and i garuantee you, you will always find people think any lip gloss sticky even the best lip glosses. i am not that picky so i am happy with it. the color is very visible on my lips and very shiny. it dries my lips out a little, but not really that bad, hey it's urban decay and the original price is like what, 15 dollars? you get what you pay for. so, it's a decent lip gloss i would say.

I really like the packaging (not the pictures, I could care less about those): it's sleek, unusual and when you twist open the cap the brush pops up automatically, which is cool. I really like that it's a brush applicator as well and Kirk is a great shiny nude colour gloss. I like the smell but I don't find it overwhelming and you barely notice it when you have it on. It smells very strongly of oatmeal cookies. It feels moisturising as well actually. I don't understand why everyone's saying you get a lot of product and it's value for money though: this is 8ml compared to my Shu gloss which is 14ml.

But Kirk is a good gloss and I rec it. I tried Doug as well and it was a subtle purple that looked good as well.

I got this from ud when they had their sale I got it for $5. I purchased it in the shade Jesse, it's a pretty wine color. The tube is super cute and slim and it comes with a little brush applicator. Although I love the color and the look I can't stand the smell. I wear it from time to time and I usually layer it with something else that doesn't small and it masks the stench.

i liked the packaging and i adored the aplicator, which is a small brush that you can get really precise with, and the smell didnt bother me too much. i have this in doug and kirk. Doug is a warm pink with glitters in it, it looks like silver glitter to me, but it isnt gritty on your lips which is great. Kirk is just a plain nude colour for evertday use, and i like it. it looks like its really brown but it comes out sheer. These are super sticky though, but sticky means staying powder! or looking like a idiot whilst you walk to school/work and your hair is all over your face and stuck to your lips! your choice;)

I have been looking at these for ages and bought Jesse which is a clear red wine colour.

First of all, I love the colour, it is fantastic, just the right consistency, stays on, beautiful stain, but... the smell! Gak. It is horrible, I know that they say it is creme brulee, but all I can smell is a mix of cereal and a weird meaty smell that smells 'off' - it is absolutely horrible. It is because of this that I am having to throw it away, thank goodness it wasn't full price.

It is such a disappointment, as the packaging is great and I love the slimline bottle, but the smell is something that I can't handle and I certainly wouldn't want anyone kissing me while wearing it!

Sorry, Urban Decay, but you have messed up this time. Please remember that the lips are close to the nose, so we need make up that smells nice. It's not rocket science is it?

I got a Jesse pocketrocket for free. I like the color but this shit stinks, it smells like old maple syrup that you know you don't want to eat. Luckily enough I didn't pay for it, because with this smell i don't know how someone can call it a favorite. Change the scent Urban Decay! Yuck!

I had this in Doug (medium pink) and I really liked it cause its very moisturizing, color payof is nice, and yes Im one of the few who loved the taste and smell lol. Although I really dont like the cheesy packageing it is pretty good quality and I enjoy putting it on. I will def buy a couple more.

I was so excited to try this at the Urban Decay counter at my local Macy's. I forgot what color I tried, but it was hot pink. When I looked at the packagong, it was a little risque, but it didn't bother me as much as it does some other people. As soon as I tried ot on, I smelled a pungent, strong, overly-sweet scent. The lady helping me siad it was creme brulee. I thought it was repulsive! And, trust me, I LOVEEE sweets, don't get me wrong! LOL! But, I'm glad I tried it on and didn't buy it! This loses three lippies from me for the pakaging and scent!

I have the full size Kirk, which is a nice nude, and the sample size Timothy, which is a very loud fuschia color. Overall these are pretty good...but I really can't stand the smell! The brush applicator is awesome, because I don't really care for the doe foot wands, and the coverage is nice, but again...THE SMELL. It smells like the popcorn Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans and it just...ugh...stinks. It's a shame...I love the coverage and application of these glosses, but because of the stank, I won't be repurchasing.

I really wanted to like this - I loved how cheeky the packaging is. I love the flat tube, which is great for slipping in the pocket of my jeans, and I like the clear wand with the brush on the end. I got it in David, which is a purple-mauve-fuschia hybrid and also a man in a suit who switches to tighty whiteys. It's creamy with a little slip, but not so slick that it just slides off your lips. The color is sheer but does show up, and it's pretty flattering to my skintone (not sure what it is NCxx, but I'm a light-to-medium Asian chick).

The only reason why I don't like this is its smell. Creme brulee can't be too bad, right? Wrong. It's godawful, and the smell lingers. I usually forget about a lip product's scent as soon as I put it on, but it was constantly there, a chemical-laden, generally sweetish smell. I had my boyfriend take a whiff of the tube, and he also agreed that it was a pretty rank sweet smell.

I received Urban Decay's Pocket Rocket Lip Gloss in 'Julio' for Christmas, but I didn't really pay it too much attention until the past couple of days.

'Julio' is "white with an iridescent sparkle" and leaves a lovely, flattering translucent shimmer that I really like. The smell isn't particularly pleasant though unfortunately, which is a shame because otherwise I would love the lip gloss.

Also, I find the packaging a little...desperate, and immature. I like packing that's a little more classy, but that's just my personal preference.

I received Doug (medium pink w/ iridescent sparkle) as a sample when I ordered my Alice in Wonderland BOS. I liked the taste/smell (Crème brûlée) and found this to be a very sticky lip gloss. I'm not really not into lip glosses, so I won't be purchasing the full-size version.

I have Kirk (Favorite. Sheer Beige), James (Favorite. Sheer Fuchsia), Eric & David. I also have a sample size of Timothy. Timothy was free and it is all his fault that I am addicted to this line. Maybe it's a placebo effect, but I cannot shake the feeling that the promised pheromones are working in the gloss. It's a nice texture, not too sticky. The colors are just right and have yet to find a color that doesn't look good on my lips. I love to apply them alone or over my lipstick. When I don't want to wear anything on my lips I dab a little on my eyelids. I am in love with my pocket rockets!
