Pretty! Semi-sheer, pinked peach or pinky coral with gold shimmers. I was looking for a coral that would work with my pale, neutral slightly yellow complexion and auburn hair and be recognizably coral as opposed to just another peachy nude, and this fits the bill!


Consistency is very much like a soft lip butter, not sticky at all. No recognizable taste or scent. Tube is heavy and nice-looking. Only minuses for me are: doesn't last as long as some stickier lipglosses I've tried, and has the sponge doe-foot tip on the wand, which I dislike (prefer a brush or squeeze tube).

Peony is a flattering coral pink on my NC20, fair to medium complexion. I purchased this because I wanted to move away from my usual cool pink glosses, and wear a warmer shade that would flatter my neutral to warm skin tone.

This colour seems to strike a nice balance between not being too pink, nor too orange on my naturally pinky red lips. I normally have to be careful purchasing coral coloured glosses and lipsticks because they often make my lips look too orange or muddy for my complexion. However, this is a nice pink-leaning coral gloss with subtle shimmer.

It doesn't last very long, so application every couple of hours is necessary. However, this doesn't bother me too much because the texture is nice and I also like how it hasn't got an irritating scent.

Overall, I'm really enjoying this colour. I've even received a few compliments saying that it makes my whole face look softer and more natural. I therefore think this would be a great colour for a person with a neutral complexion.

I really like this basic pink lip gloss. The texture is great; the subtle scent is tolerable; the staying power is decent. The shimmery gold flecks in the gloss adds dimension, as well. An overall quality DS gloss.

I got this lipgloss because Lisa Eldridge used it in one of her videos and it's decent for a soft, everyday lip look.
The staying power isn't that great but that's to be expected given the sheer texture.
I use it over a lipliner for extra staying power.

A good lip gloss at a reasonable price.

This is a great lipgloss.. At least its better than the NYX lipgloss i used before.. It blended great with my lips and has a soft red-pink-peach color with the gold shimmer.. The applicator made it easier..
Unfortunately the color not longlasting..probably around 2-3hour.. But overall, Great !!

Peony is a beautiful, natural warm pink with gold shimmer. It layers well over lipstick, but is subtly pretty on it's own. Like others have stated, this lip gloss is sheer, but I prefer sheer formulas, and I find that this is pigmented enough to add a rosy warmth to lips. It's also very comfortable on the lips - not sticky at all unless your lips are very dry (which mine sometimes are).

I got this by mistake because I thought I had chosen a Super Lustrous one. My bad as everyone seems to love the SL formula and I really wanted to try it in a light-ish-go with everything color like this. I still have not tried the SL glosses but am not impressed by this. I only wear gloss so by now know what works for me, this doesn't.

Here's why, its not pigmented even for a light shade. Not so great lasting power due to being of thinner consistency. Just average and I expect a little more from the brand. Its fine if you like a not too thick gloss, but while not terrible its simply a mediocre product to me.

I would probably give this a 4.5 if I could. It is so hard finding good neutral pinks for my extremely pale skin, and this is a winner! It's a beautiful, glossy medium pink that would look so pretty on fair and warm skin tones. (I think I'm a mix of both?)
Overall Pros:
-beautiful, natural pink
-makes my lips look plumper!
-not too shimmery

Overall Cons:
-staying power is good, better than a lot of lip glosses, but not great. I'd say it lasts 3-4 hours on me with no eating and minimal drinking
-i'm not really a fan of the applicator it comes with- it doesn't seem to pick up a lot of product

I would definitely buy this product again and would recommend it for all skin tones. Just a perfect, pretty, natural everyday lipgloss!

I love this stuff. It has great packaging like Chanel Lipgloss except i didn't own any. The color look great. It might be pricey ($6.49). But it worth it and it come a lot of lip gloss in a big tube!

This is a beautiful Nars 'orgasm' like shade. I was so excited to try this shade as well but I'm so very disappointed it is sooo, so sheer. On my very pigmented lips, it's like a barely opaque gloss and very transparent like a clear gloss.

The texture, smell and packaging is all very nice just not the color pay off. it's good that I got this on sale.

this is medium peachy pink with golden shimmer that is not too obvious. Its fairly pigmented but unfortunately, my lips are pigmented too so on my lips its just looks clear. I usually wear it over lipstick because on its own its just not noticable at all. Its a decent product though-not sticky and very moisturizing
This is simular to Orgasm by Nars although I think Peony is just a bit darker. If u don't want to shell out money for Nars, this is a good alternative

Revlon Colorburst lipgloss in Peopny has definitely made my top 5 glosses of all time list. My lips are ridiculously pigmented, and this lipgloss has just enough color to make my lips a perfect shade of peachy coral. I love wearing this during the day, its very moisturizing (though doesnt help much if your lips are flaky), and not extremely sticky. I have a daily makeup bag and a little lip product bag, and I use this so much I had to put it in my daily makeup bag! I hiiigggghhhly reccommend this, even if your lips are super pigmented and you feel like nothing shows up. And it doesnt hurt that this is under $10!

Awesome, natural lipgloss. It adds a little bit of a peachy/coral/pink tint to the lips, and it smells just like vanilla. its a bit "gritty" and you can feels the shimmer on your lips-but its not that bad. so affordable too!

Other than Dior 256, this is my other HG lipgloss. Peachy pink color matches most of my eye makeup and outfit. I love it has small golden shimmer but flaky and doesn't enhance the lines on my lips. The smell is thousand times better than my Dior lip gloss. I wish I am able to find another good lipgloss from the Revlon Colorburst line. However, other color in the same line either not attractive to me or very drying (because the of the silvar flakes). I can use this gloss without lipblam underneath. I will definitely buy this again.

I love this lip gloss. Its beautiful with or without lipstick. Too bad my lips don't like it. I am so crushed. Good lip gloss is hard to come by.

Peony is a lovely pinky-peach shade with gold shimmer that is very pretty in the tube, but very sheer on the lips. I was wishing for more opacity, but it does look nice over lipsticks. It brightens my pink lipsticks and will look good for Spring.

I rarely give products a 5 but this completely deserves it! I generally layer products on my lips. I rarely wear lip-liner (nude), but generally always wear a lipstick/lipshimmer and then top it off with gloss. For this reason, I really like lighter glosses that add some dimension to my lips and overall look.

I had heard from a youtube guru's reviews that these glosses were great. When I first went to the display at my local Target I could not remember which exact shade/color the youtube guru had suggested but decided that this seemed like a great option. Boy was I right?

Where do I begin? I love the packaging of this product-it is so clean and classy. There is generous amount of product and although I had never used an applicator like this before, I really like it. A little goes a long way with this product as it is slightly thick, but it is not sticky. The color is the prettiest peachy pink, and I think would look great on anyone.

I have a tan complexion and wear this everyday on top of a nude-ish/warm lip shimmer from burt's bees. I love the look! It is very simple but clean cut. I wear this also when I go out with more dramatic eye looks.

Over all, I think this is a great product! I may try some other color from this line in the future as well.

This is so beautiful! A warm pink that's not too sticky, but very moisturizing and lasts reasonably well. The only way they could improve this is to add SPF.

I really love this gloss. They resemble a high end lip gloss on the lips and the packaging as well. It isn't a chunky glitter high shine look, which I'm happy about. I prefer a smooth, less shiny gloss that just gives my lips a plumping effect. This color is perfect over my favorite nude lipsticks. It gives it a slight pink color with gold microglitter to add an extra special touch. It's my go to everyday gloss. I actually dont mind the applicator either. It works well to spread the gloss evenly and more high end glosses are coming out with that type of applicator as well. On my tan skin it looks beautiful. I have since repurchased in two other shades and am a fan!
