$20 is a lot to spend on a lipgloss but I am so in love w you, White Russian. Can't say I love the drink itself lol but the gloss is so shiny and the perfect nude pink color. Long lasting, not too sticky, perfect. And I actually like the tingley feeling it gives your lips.

I caved into all the hype and picked this up. I was worried it would be too milky and cool toned on my asian NC25-30 skin tone, but no it's the perfect pinky peach nude everyday lip look w/o looking to pale or washing me out. (though be wary of applying a thick layer which did result in the grey cast, nude/white out lip look.) Overall it's a nice plumping gloss. While I don't see earth shattering poutiness to my lips, it does help keep them from looking too wrinkley and It doesn't leave my lips dry. It has a pleasant minty tingle when applied, though if you tend to lick your lips, this will definitely deter you as it tastes TERRIBLE. I find myself licking my lips every now and again and get surprised with this gross bitter taste when I have this on. The glosses retails at around $20.00 but it's a pretty decent amount of product so it's not too much sticker shock.

This is a really solid quality lip gloss, which is currently 19$. The color is a pretty sheer milky pink nude and it goes on like a dream. At first it smells like cotton candy and then has a very minty scent later. The mint causes a little bit of 'tingle' but it does not irritate the lips. I'm very cautious about plumping glosses due to cold sores but this does not cause them at all. The texture is thicker but not goopy, glides on with multiple coats very well. The packaging is a very solid plastic and would not break if you dropped it. Extremely moisturizing, and can be layered over almost everything. This has quickly earned a permanent spot in my purse.

This is my favorite lip gloss in the entire world. This is the perfect creamy, pink nude color! It's pretty much like a.more beige version of Mac Hue lipstick in a lip gloss form. Also, the formula is amazing, not too thin and not too sticky, it feels minty, and smells like sugar.

I bought this in the shade Pink Lady, but i cannot find any reviews for that specific color on makeup alley. Anyway, I was in love with this from the very first application. It feels so cool, cold on the lips and it is incredibly smooth to the point of softening my lips. I have really dry skin and dry lips, and I find that this moisturizes my lips so well and the feeling is amazing. It is not sticky at all, lasts a great amount of time, and I have noticed very subtle plumping here and there.

Lovely nude pink without any shimmer. Has a minty tingle that lingers over an hour on my lips. I do not notice any plumping from the menthol though. Has a sweet vanilla cupcake scent.

I don't get the hype for this product. There is absolutely no pigment in this lipgloss. I bought it for the color - I thought it was a pinky nude gloss, but there's no color on my lips. MIght as well be clear. I guess it's nice that there's no shimmer, and I do like the tingly feeling. But I'll stick with the buxom gloss in Samantha, which is a pinky nude that actually has some pigment. I won't re-purchase.

There are so few reviews for this product and it's constantly sold out at Sephora stores nationwide, and online. It's only sold there, so it can be hard to get a hold of. I went to the store today looking for something else and passed by the display. They had three in stock and someone had stolen the tester, so I tried it on with a brand new tester and bought it. It was tough to choose between this and Creamsicle. This is a nude pink, but on your lips it's basically a nude cream gloss. I didn't understand the hype around it for the longest time. It smells good, like a vanilla caramel, but not sickly sweet. The tingling sensation on your lips lasts and lasts for what seems like hours. It does plump my lips and give them a fuller appearance. It's also extremely glossy and light reflective, and it's pretty long wearing for a gloss. Not cheap at $18, but very popular and worth a try. I had written off glosses for lipsticks until I bought this one.

I love this product! Great pigmentation, and not super sticky like other glosses. I didn't feel that the plumping effect was super irritating or overdone like other lip plumpers. It's a bit pricey, but it's worth a nice splurge.

I have to admit I was really drawn to this by the name- such a delish drink, and also because of the pics of it in recent sephora ads. When I first looked for it it was sold out at my SephoraJCP and even the tester was M.I.A. so I kind of forgot about it for a few weeks or so and then today when I was back in the store there was an almost empty tester and one tube left of this. I tested the color on my hand- a milky pinkish nude, decided I liked it and bought it right away. I really like this color, its buildable and looks great against a (fake) tan. Of course my fav thing about the Buxom glosses is the nice cooling feeling they give, whether they plump my lips I have no idea but they feel great and are not sticky and will continue to be my hg lip gloss brand.
