Wonderful vibrant neon blue based pink that looks cool toned on my skin. It’s so bold I have to pair this with a purple lip liner (NYX purple rain). I also use NYX sweet pink lipstick (same shade a dolly pink) underneath to give it some staying power.

For reference, I'm NW45/NC50/Revlon ColorStay Cappucino with full pigmented lips. This is a Look-At-Me blue-based shocking pink. I find that this lippie is gives an appropriate "barbie pink" lip look for dark-skin beauties. I gave it 4 stars, b/c it is not wearable for the daytime, at least not for me.

This is the prettiest bright pink that I have ever owned! It's definitely a stand out shade but works perfectly on days when I do not have the time to do a full face of make up but still want to look like an effort was made. When I wear this I just swipe on some black mascara and slick this on my lips for a pretty, polished look. This will be great for the summer!

I think the packaging is absolutely adorable with the little bow on the top and the labels and container are clear so you can see the lipgloss color on the inside. In general, these Mega Shine lipglosses are nicely pigmented, inexpensive, are only slightly sticky, and have very nice color payoff.

Dolly Pink is an awesome shade of fuschia with lots of shine and no glitter. I have pasty-pale NW15ish when tan skin and blue/violet and purple bangs accenting my strawberry-blond hair, and this pops like crazy for me. I love this on it's own, over lip liner and lip balm, or even over lipstick. A light layer of this brings a true dolly pink color, a vibrant pink with a blue undertone. A heavy layer of this brings an extremely vibrant fuschia color.

Not for the unadventurous or faint of heart! This looks great on this pasty, cool-toned woman and I think it would look amazing on the dark-skinned ladies, too.

This is a gorgeous hot pink lip gloss. The shade is beautiful with no shimmer. This instantly brightens up my face. Love this lipgoss. I wish they would get rid of the cherry medication scent though.

This is a barbie pink lipgloss that glides on smooth and creamy. It is very vibrant without being overbearing. It needs frequent reapplication as the color does fade, something that I expect a lipgloss to do. It does have a cherry smell, that might be offensive to those who are scent sensitive.

This gloss is so pretty. I love it! It's a barbie pink that's not too bright, but not too dull. One swipe if you're looking for subtle color, and two if you're looking for bold color. It has a slight cherry medicine smell, but no taste. I am a NC50 for reference.

I love this lipgloss! It is a beautiful hot pink color that looks great on darker skintones ( I am an NC50 in MAC for ref). The gloss is extremely pigmented and goes on smooth w/o a sticky thick feeling like the average gloss.It was also very affordable; I bought mine at a beauty supply store in NYC for $4. This is my second gloss purchase from NYX and I intend to purchase a lot more in the future. One thing that some many not like is that you can not try these on before you purchase and you can not return them once used, so the best bet is to look for swatches online before picking up a shade that's bold and also both of the glosses I purchased go on true to color; so what you see is what you get!

A beautiful lip gloss and the price is right- what more could I ask for? The color is vibrant and refreshing. I have fair skin, dark hair, and dark eyes and it did not look overwhelming. This looks nice paired with a simple cat eye or neutral eye shadow. However, I would be interested to see how this would look paired with a more dramatic eye. The cons of this lip gloss are that the texture is a little bit sticky, and the bubblegum (?) scent is a bit much and kind of off-putting while eating (every time I took a sip of my drink I got a faint taste of bubblegum- does not mix well with ginger ale). As a matter of fact the scent is the only reason why I took one point off. Aside from that, I absolutely love it.

Too bright and cool for my medium skin-tone. This shade is a hot pink/fuchsia and best suits fair skin-tones in my opinion. Is a creme finish, no shimmer or glitter. Formula is not too sticky, moisturizing but has a weird plastic smell. I like NYX lip glosses in general, but this shade just wasn't for me.

This is a fuchsia colored gloss. Because it is so bright and pigmented, it just doesn't suit my coloring. But I love the NYX megashine glosses. In fact, they are my favorite gloss out of any brand. This color just didn't appeal to me.

I love this shade of pink. It stands out quite well from the usual corals and nude peachy pinks out there. I use this gloss on top of anything, actually I can even wear it on its own since it's so pigmented. Dolly Pink is a magenta/purple-ish pink that is probably the brighter lipgloss form of MAC's Craving. Applied liberally, it's a bold statement, but a sheer wash of it gives me a hint of bright color, in case I want to make my lips look like they have some gloss on :) Texture is okay, a little sticky, but I've tried sticker glosses. I even like the bubblegum-y scent, makes it fun to put on

Overall, highly recommended bright pink gloss. If you're tired of nude-y pink glosses, I think this is a nice pick-me-up. I'm a fair-medium, but this will go well with other skintones :)

This is one of my favorite lip glosses. The color is a bright fushia/pink with no shimmers but lots of shine. It last for a few hours on the lips and isnt sticky at all. My skintone is about a nc42 and I love how this colors looks on me.
