I got this as a gift from The Bay. I think it's probably the best lip gloss I've ever tried. It isn't super sticky and lastes for a very long time. The packaging looks very cute too. I'm not sure about the price (since it was free, as mentioned before), but I'll definitely repurchase this. Love it.

This is the only lipgloss I ever wear. I like to wear it while driving since it has SPF 15. It lasts all morning and I have to take it off to eat lunch! It fades a little, but I prefer the way it looks when it's a bit faded.

I am NW20 and Bamboo Pink looks great. It makes my lips look a bit more pink and full, but it's not so obvious that everyone can tell I am wearing gloss. In other words, this is perfection! I received a sample size awhile ago, but I rediscovered this recently and purchased a full size. I want to try more shades, especially Guavagold! The stickiness is bearable and I think it actually feels kind of luxurious, like the gloss is hugging my lips. It also helps me tell that the gloss hasn't worn off. Overall, a great gloss!

I got this in Fireberry along with a Different Lipstick as a free gift from Clinique. I'm very glad that I had chance to try it. It is not too sticky, lasts long, and applies smoothly. The pigmentation is very true to how it appears in the tube. The color is so lovely, it can be worn alone and be mistaken for a lipstick. The applicator is a typical, standard one. One of my favourite things about this product is the array of promising shades available. The SPF 15 is also a fantastic plus.

Overall, I adore this lip gloss. Honestly, it's one of the best I've had in awhile. I would recommend this to anyone who wants a highly pigmented lip gloss with a little shimmer.

I got this gloss in 'Fireberry' as a freebie with another Clinique purchase, and it was a lucky little gift. It looked like such a bright fuchsia in the tube that I didn't think I'd like it, but it goes on sheer and shiny with just the right amount of color. It lasts for hours and doesn't dry out your lips. Its only flaw is its stickiness. If your hair blows in your face while you're wearing this, fugetaboutit. Major stick factor. But I would actually consider going out and buying the gloss myself once the freebie tube runs out, as its other qualities make it worth it.

Too thick and sticky for my liking and made my lips peel. Giving it away.

I think i forgot to "rate" my review I just posted, so here it is again. I tried this lip gloss because it was stated to stay on a decent amount of time. I wouldn't know how long it actually does stay on because within 2 hrs. the taste of it made me nauseated and i had to take it off. it was sickening, i dunno if it was the "sunscreen" taste or what, but it was bad. took it back next day.

I give this product a 4 because it's a tad pricey (I got a sample size one as a freebie with a sample of Different Lipstick as well, the regular price is somewhere between $15-$20, which is pricey to me). I would say this is the second best lipgloss I have ever tried, compared to Estee Lauder lipgloss. My sample was Air Kiss, which is a light pink with a hint of golden shimmer, so quite similar to my other review of Estee Lauder. Very good quality, seems to be very good for your lips. I think Air Kiss is a very complimentary color for fair skinned girls with blonde or red hair.

I love sticky gloss & am always on the hunt for more. Sticky gloss sticks to the lips far longer & tends to moisturize really well, which I need.


This isn't really sticky like, say, PF Plump Potion or MUFE Super Lip Gloss (the discontinued squeeze tube kind)...in fact, it feels more slippery like silicone grease than truly sticky & it removes completely when I wipe it off, without any remaining sticky residue. But it does have longlasting wear & tenacity that's surprising in spite of its slick texture. It's thick as it applies & the wand picks up the perfect amount of gloss (very little) - I just apply one wand's worth to my bottom lip & then press my lips together to spread. PERFECTO.


It's comforting, soothing, moisturizing, & super-glossy. Very shiny, which I like, so that a little bit is all that I need & goes a long way.


I wasn't impressed with the selection at Sephora (the lighting there is absolutely terrible & it was too crowded to browse comfortably)...so I purchased a mini of 'Mystic' on eBay & I love it. In the tube it's a glimmery shimmery plummy mauve, but on the lips it's virtually transparent & mostly colorless...lol I think that's funny because I wanted a clear Glosswear but there isn't a true clear in the collection. This one serves the purpose of virtually clear with super-wet shine.


I would certainly buy this again. The mini size is adorable, though the full size is probably more cost-effective.

I got Air Kiss and Cabana Crush in a gift set from a family friend. I absolutely love the colours; Air Kiss is pale pink with fine silver shimmer, and Cabana Crush is medium pink with gold shimmer. They give such high, juicy, glassy, yummy shine! They have a plumping effect that makes my lips fuller, which I love. The colours last for 3 hours at most, which is better than the Neutrogena lipgloss I usually use that only lasts for an hour and a half. It is very sticky, but I guess that's the payoff for longer wear. They are pricey ($14 CAD), and I'm sure there are cheaper glosses that deliver the same or better quality. I'll enjoy them for as long as they last, but I probably won't be repurchasing them.

I have quite a few of these lip glosses and I really like them. Most of the ones I own are fairly sheer but have a hint of color. I haven't tried any really dark red or dark pink ones, so I can't speak for those, but I do have a couple mid-tone colors. The gloss is really sticky, I would probably even say worse than MAC l/g and those are known to be pretty bad. I personally don't mind sticky, so to me that is fine and isn't a big deal, but that could be a big negative for a lot of people. Also, the gloss doesn't have great staying power. If you eat/drink nothing, you can get about 2 hours out of them. I tend to re-apply my lip gloss anyways, so again, this isn't a problem for me. I have never noticed any unpleasant scent and was generally pleased with the range of colors. They don't have as wide of a selection as some brands (like MAC), but it was relatively easy to find colors that interested me. I really like these over lip stick or liner because they seem to really hold the color in place. I think that might be a benefit of it being so sticky. I can make any lipstick long-wearing by putting this gloss over it. I would definitely repurchase if I ran out, but I wouldn't run out to get the gloss. It's nice, but nothing really special.

I just bought this in sunset- such a beautiful light bronze color with texture similar to mac lipglass. But the taste is so offensive- tastes rancid. I got a sample of it in a different color so I tried that, too, and it has that same nasty taste. Maybe it's just me, but I can't wear it because of the taste. I'll be returning this!

EDIT: Just found a great, inexpensive product alternative for the SPF:
Un-Petroleum Lip Balm SPF 18 by Alba Natural. I got it in cherry (delicious!) at Whole Foods for $2.99. Looks like a chapstick and glides on leaving lips smooth and shiny. Great base under any lipstick or gloss with SPF that lasts!

I love this lip gloss because it has great colour, softens my lips, and has SPF so I know that my lips are protected from the sun. It's a bit on the sticky side but it has good staying power so I don't mind it. Job well done Clinique : )

Very very sticky but quite long lasting compared to other lip glosses. I use Mystic which looks good on a light, cool toned skin. But honestly I use it only because I purchased it on a whim. I hate my hair sticking to a lipgloss. Yuck!

to be very honest, the lip gloss looked awesome when i first put it on, but it did NOT qualify as "long last" at all.

High shine and VERY sticky!!

I think you'd love this lipgloss if you're looking for something that would stay all day and can't easily be bothered by the stickiness. I have this in Guava Gold, which is a nice nude with golden specks. The color doesn't show up much on my pigmented lips though.

I have this lip gloss in Juicy Apple. It is an extremely pigmented red color, so if you don't like extreme pigments, stay away! Because it is so pigmented, I blot my lips lightly and apply Vaseline over it for a more natural look. The sunscreen is a nice touch, so I will often wear this to the pool (not so much for the color, but for the SPF 15 factor).
However, it isn't AMAZING. It doesn't last very long on me and has a sort of thick consistency. I like the Clinique Superbalm Moisturizing Gloss a little bit better, since it's more sheer and easier to apply (the brush tip on this lip gloss can get somewhat messy).
All in all, I probably wouldn't buy this again. I have found drugstore glosses that are just as good or even better, like Bath & Body Works' Liplicious line (not exactly drugstore, but as cheap as).

Ew, sticky and thick, BUT it has sunscreen, and it does last a good long while. Try putting a gloss with a nicer texture over the top of this one, it helps. I will use this one at the beach, and other times when I'm going to be in the sun all day.

I've been using neutrogena lip glosses, which I strongly prefer, but they don't last that long and the sunscreen in them is oxybenzone. See EWG for info on oxybenzone, not the best.

I got "cabana" which is a straight pink with shimmer. It's okay, but I feel a ittle like I'm back in middle school.

My favourite glosses! I have five: Guavagold, a peachy, goldy nude on me, great for when I'm playing up the eyes; Bonfire,a golden red, with gold sparkles, looks good for evenings; Fireberry, my favourite, a soft berry with sparkles, not too dark; Cabana Crush, a corally pink, fantastick for coloured summer looks; and Clearly Pink, sheer, juicy pink. I love these because they last well into 5 hours if I'm not eating, the coloures suit me and they don't smell of some weird chemical fragrance. I think I'm going to buy Mystic and Goldspun for winter... I just want them all! The only downside I can think of is that they quite expensive for my budget, but in this case I don't mind saving.
