Such a pretty warm nude color with nice golden shimmer. Love it because the texture is just right, no crazy smell or taste, no nasty gritty glitter.

At first, I really thought this was going to be a straight-to-the-junk-drawer purchase. The Colorburst formula is a lot thicker and stickier than I usually prefer. However, it stays smooth and glossy on my lips, rather than going dry and tacky like many thick glosses, and this shade stays put quite well (for a lip gloss). So I'm a fan! I do wish Rosegold had more rose and less gold, but it's quite pretty and versatile anyway. Very pigmented -- seems to completely cover my lips.

This gloss tones down (up?) my heavily pigmented mauvey brown lips to a lighter, slightly warm, milky pink. It has shimmer, not glitter, and it's not gritty on my lips. I like the long paddle applicator - I take one side to my bottom lip, then the other side to my top lip, and it's the perfect amount of gloss. I like to wear this color on my lips when I do neutral makeup looks or colorful eye looks.

I tend to not use any lipcolor because I have large eyes and done lips always look ridiculous, and my lips are naturally a dark/medium pink with almost a fushia/red tone. However, hell-bent on finding a MLBB shade for vacation that blends with my lipcolor, I spent a week of online research and countless hours in CVS trying to find a shade. After using Burt's Bee's Lip Shimmer in Caramel for a few days I knew that a coppery/orange shade would neutralize or even out my natural lip color and bring it up to a more pleasing shade, but I wanted a little more pink. I also wanted shimmer, as normal matte/creamy lipsticks look fakey on me.
I almost went with the peach version of this gloss, but was unhappy with the lack of pigment and wanted a little more pop. I purchased Rosegold and paired it with the Revlon Colorstay Lip Liner in Natural and I'm *extremely* happy. Rosegold is a beautiful coppery pink nude that's lighter than the bottle shows. I wish I could take a picture that does the color justice. I'm surprised that a coppery/orangey pink looks good with my fair skin and dark hair, but I think it works well with already-medium pink lips. It's a gorgeous nude that makes my lips beautiful, but not competing with the rest of my face. I simply love it.
Oh, it seems pretty long-lasting, too, and when I need a little moisture I slick on some Badger Balm over top and the color stays put when I do so. Awesome!

I won't be buying this lip gloss again because I have 3 of them! I am not a lip gloss gal but this color intrigued me and I gave it a shot. I liked it so much that I went out and bought two more....just to have back ups. It compliments my coloring and is fairly long lasting as long as I don't eat or drink while wearing it! Actually, I love it! I have been really pleased with Revlon's ColorBurst products recently. I have a few of their butters and one of their color burst lipsticks. I have some high end lip products but I always seem to reach for the Revlon ones. Good job!

This is a beautiful warm pink gloss. It's not too dark, but not too light. It can be used alone or over a lipstick. I really like this gloss.

My first and will be purchasing more. I really like this lipgloss. It isn't sticky, applies smoothly to the lips and the pigmentation is good enough for me. I have pigmented lips and this color definitely shows up on my lips(which is hard to find a lipgloss that gives color, being that they usually just give me a glossy look) I can pair this with a lipstick or even wear it alone. Favorite drugstore lipgloss and can't wait to get more!

I don't normally use gloss but I decided to give this a try after seeing it on sale at $3.99 CDN b4 taxes. Usually it's about $9.99 CDN b4 taxes.
Overall I would have to say that you notice the gloss part more than the color itself. The actual color of this product is lighter than what you see in the packaging. It does have quite a strong "power" of gloss more than color pigmentation.
It does have a scent of some sort (not floral or a fragrance of some sort), but it's not over powering to the point of it being noticeable while wearing it.
The packaging is sleek, and the top lid clicks into place when you close it. It has a rather long wand with a felt tip applicator at the end where you get most of the product when you take it out of the tube.
It does last all day but after eating or drinking you notice that the shininess somewhat wanes so you may want to reapply if you always want to keep that fresh gloss look on your lips.
0.20 fl. oz or 5.9ml, and no SPF
May buy this again in the future but since it has such a strong gloss component, this product will last me a very long time.

This gloss is alot darker in the tube than it is on the lips. I normally go for much lighter colors. It's a golden corally peach. It looks darker than Peony but it is practically the same shade on the lips. Peony has cheap glitter particles. I would definitely recommend Rosegold over Peony.

This is a dead on dupe for MAC's Dazzleglass in Bare Necessities8, I swear. I no longer have to throw $18 bucks on a lipgloss, I can just spend 7-8 bucks on the same color. Of course it may not be as long lasting, but thats not a huge deal for me.

I bought this lip gloss by chance at the Revlon counter with the intention of buying an eyeliner pencil. I saw that this one of their new products and since I just happened to buy a Laura Mercier lipstick which left my lips a little chapped, I said what the heck, I'll try some gloss to help avoid chapped lips. Let me just say that I tend to avoid glosses in the past because they're usually sticky and do not last very long. Also, I tend to think that some glosses are too shiny so I can't wear them at work. Anyway, the SA showed the new array of Colorburst glosses and picked a shade for me (I told her I wanted something natural-looking). At first, I was apprehensive because the glosses looked shimmery in the container. When I applied it on my lips however I was pleasantly surprised that it glided on smoothly despite my having chapped lips at the time and was not sticky at all. I liked the consistency of it and the applicator is pretty good as you can line your lips properly including the corners. The applicator is also flat so you can spread the gloss evenly without putting too much. As for the color (Rosegold), it's pretty flattering for my slightly-tanned (and acidic) Asian skintone. Although it is slightly shimmery it is not as bright or distracting as other glosses I've tried in the past. It actually gives your lips a dewy look. The color is just right-- I have had difficulty finding the right shade for my lips because they are acidic and I'm glad that this shade looks flattering on me. I have loads of lipstick which I rarely use because the colors look different in natural lighting and turn darker on my acidic lips. I'm glad I chanced on this product. It's a marvelous gloss and I think i can wear it everyday :)

Love this gloss! I wear it over Revlon Soft Nude and it looks perfect. It isn't sticky at all, but it smells like pure vanilla extract, and not in a good way. I wish it lasted a little bit longer, but I would buy it again.

I am one of those sad individuals that has so many l/g that when asked I just say I have “over 50” . I love gloss. It is very rare for me to use just one for several days in a row. I purchased this gloss in the Rosegold color about a week ago with a few other colors from the same line. I was not overly excited about this one as it looks like a beige-bronze in the tube. I am totally in love with this gloss and have worn it every day since purchase. On my lips it’s a neutral pinky copper color that is sensational on my pigmented lips. It is perfect for summer and I wear it both in the office and during the weekend. It is a pulled together lip that works perfectly with my tan/olive skin tone and warms up my completion without looking too made up. I use it with a bronzy blush and I love it. The applicator is a flattened out soft doe-foot that allow the perfect amount of gloss for top and bottom lip. I find it pigmented enough to wear on its own. The gloss is not sticky at all and I do not detect any fragrance. Good lasting power for a gloss (2-3 hours) and does not migrate. I believe these are around $7-8 but I used my CVS bucks and got them at a good discount. I have many glosses that look similar in the tube (Channel Giggle, MAC Lust, etc…) but none of them look like this one on my lips. I love it. I will definitely repurchase.

I went buck wild this week with Rite Aid's 40% Revlon sale. Picked up a few more Colorburst lipglosses (I already had Papaya and was digging it). This color didn't look appealing to me at all in the tube. Just a very blah color with a touch of pink. Pink doesn't look good on me so it never crossed my mind to purchase this until I saw swatches and reviews online. When I first put this on, I felt like I wasted my money, even if it was 40% off. My lips looked pinker (a warm pink, if that makes any sense, most likely from the gold shimmer), but there was no pigment to the gloss. Booooo! However, once I saw my lips in sunlight...and wow, so pretty. It reminded me of a duo-chrome eyeshadow or highlighter, almost like MAC's Light Flush MSF in lipgloss form. I then put on another layer of gloss and I was loving my lips! They looks luminous. The texture of the gloss wasn't sticky or gritty. The shimmer is fine. The packaging is sleek. And at 40%, it was only $4 and change. Good gloss, good deal.

This lip gloss is just okay. The formula is smooth but too slippery. The color saturation is good and gives a nice golden pink sheen to my lips. This product would be a lot better if the formula was a little thicker and more pigmented. I will use this up but I won't repurchase.

I love this color. I'm NC30 with olive undertones and this color works surprisingly well. I have very pigmented lips naturally and the orangey mauve color combines with the color of my lips to make a more burnt orange russet color which gives me a great summery lip to go with my bronzey eye makeup looks.

Rosegold is a good neutral gloss shade for every day. It's more on the warm side, hence the name Rosegold. There has to be a certain balance of pigment put into gel gloss. If you want high pigment, then it's usually going to be a sticky gloss or too slick and bleed outside your lips. That would look sloppy. Most women wear lipstick under their gloss as a base for it to last longer. The way these are made is very similar to Chanel. I think they look beautiful alone or with a lipstick. The applicator is not a doe foot or a brush. It's a type of rubber sponge that deposits the color more evenly in a few swipes. Rosepearl is the cool toned version of this shade. It has that bit of mauve in it.

This is a very nice gloss in a peachy rose shimmer. It's a bit lighter on than I'd expected from looking at it in the tube, but it's a terrific neutral alone or layered over something a little deeper. Very nice smooth, non-sticky texture and has a light, non-offensive scent. Gorgeous packaging too. A good comparable to Chanel at a much more reasonable price.

This is quickly becoming one of my favorite glosses. The color is a soft, almost peachy gold tone with shimmer particles. The gloss itself is, like others have stated, not full of glitter just shimmer and it's not too sheer on my pigmented lips. It's a neutral that can be worn with either a natural daytime eye shadow look, or a smoky, heavier nighttime shadow look. I haven't tried layering it over a lipstick because I believe that would deviate from the beauty of this color. I'm almost tempted to buy other shades, only I really love this one in particular because it pairs so well with different makeup. It's not very sticky, but rather slick and some may not like that the applicator tip is soft, but I enjoy it because I can apply gloss to both my bottom and top lip without having to return to the container to get more product. It helps if you blend it in, though, otherwise you do get a thin layer of it at the edges of your lips. I would definitely recommend this product and I would buy it again. Overall, it wears nicely for about 2-3 hours before having to reapply, and as it wears off, it doesn't leave any caked bits on your lips either--which is a plus. I'm happy I bought this.
