I got this at TJ MAXX!!!! for 3 bucks!!!!! URBAN DECAY! I loveeeeeeeee this gloss. Not only is it georgous, but its dirt cheap, and smells amazing. the only thing is that you can feel the glitter on your lips, but i don't care. IT WAS ONLY 3 BUCKS!

UD's Sparkler Pen has great packaging that I love. I don't like touching gloss, and I'm not a big fan of wands. This is perfect. The color is a clear, bright red with lots of gold sparkle. It's relatively long lasting, smells nice, and looks great on.

I recently purchased this from TJ Maxx for about 2.99 or 3.99 and it was well worth the money. The gloss had a subtle wash of red color with sparkly glitter. The gloss was super shiny... even more so than MAC's clear lipglass and kept my lips moisturized.The gloss has a fruity smell to it with no taste.
The only thing I didn't like was the applicator brush because it holds too much product making application a bit of a mess at times.
Over all a good buy

I have never gone through a gloss so quickly! I really like this gloss pen, and I am not usually a gloss girl. This color is a nice sheer reddish pink on me, with gold sparkles. Very shiney, nice and moisturizing. The fruity flavor is delicious too, reminds me of my Mango Lip Butter from The Body Shop. I still do find that it is kind of stickey, but I think hair will stick to anything shiney when the breezes are going strong. Many people complain about the click pen packaging, but I think it is working well for me. Is it nerdy of me to admit that I've played around with this gloss that I've figured out the secret to the click-nothing, click-still noting dilemma? What I do is give it five slow clicks and look to see if there's anything on the brush yet, and watch the brush while I do several more slow clicks. It usually takes ten clicks to cover my pout to my liking.
I plan on buying another one of these sparkler pens, most likely in the same color. Since this is the only thing I've put on my lips for two days straight now, maybe I'll get one of the Firecracker and one of another color! Great job Urban Decay!

I love this gloss! It really enhances my lip's natural color without looking tarty and it layers beautifully. It also has this really fruity scent that I enjoy. No stickiness either. It was only ten bucks and I plan on trying more shades. I just wish it came in a bigger pen.

This is one of my must have lip glosses. It's not too thick, but you can definitely notice that you have something on. I just realized I was almost out, and I'm ordering more. It deepens the color of my lips and adds a bit of sparkle. I wear it light during the day, and nice and layered over my lipstick at night for extra shine.

This comes in a twist-up pen with a brush applicator. It's a really bright red with gold sparkles. But don't worry, it goes on very sheer unless you put on a LOT of layers. After the gloss fades, the gold shimmer remains behind....which may or may not be a good thing. I don't like having so much sparkles on my lips so I'll usually just have to apply more of this gloss or just wipe everything off with a tissue. This "Sparkler Pen" adds a dose of color and glittery pizzaz to my face when I don't have other makeup on. Or when I just woke up and need to leave the house quickly. The only con about this product is that I don't to twist up the gloss. These kind of lipglosses are usually hard to control, but this one is better than other kinds. Will buy again (I got it for about $10 USD)

This lip gloss has a great watermelon scent, fresh not like most watermelon scented glosses I've tried. This is a tad more gritty than the color Flare, but I like this color more anyway. It's a sheer pinked red with gold flecks. I love pen style glosses like this and this one is so much cheaper than the Stila ones. You don't get a terrible lot of gloss, and I'm sure I'll use this up in no time, but really I can't complain about the price. Good stuff.

Urban Decay always comes out with fun, eye-catching colors and textures, and the Sparkler pens are no exception. Firecracker is a sheer red with golden sparkles. Smells like yummy watermelon. This is a fun, flirty and hip color - really draws attention to the lips without going overboard. Definitely more of a nighttime than daytime/corporate look. The one and only gripe I have is the packaging - not a fan of the click-pen. Other than that, no real complaints and I would buy this again and also try other colors.

Great color! The price is reasonable when compared with other non drugstore lines. Beautiful berry with oodles of sparkle. Clear lipliner will help it stay in the lines. Have 2...One for home and one for my bag!

I love this gloss. It is a pretty berry color with wonderful sparkles! And even after it wears off, you are still left with sparkly lips. Would def. purchase again.

Urban Decay NEVER ceases to amaze me. I have never been disappointed with an Urban Decay product and this one is no different. The packaging is a lot like Stilla's lipglosses; the clicking which dispenses the gloss with the bristle brush. The sparkly glitters really brighten up and highlight my lips. One coat of this by itself is enough to give a fun glow to lips without too much color. A very "fun" product and for only $10, I would buy as small gifts or stocking stuffers. You get a lot more product (I think one or two ounces) for less money than Stilla's glosses (which range in the $20's). And the smell is nice too, kind of like candy. If the subtle tint in color isn't enough for you, you can wear it over any dull lipstick to brighten it up. Jazzercise!

Beautiful color. Kind of a sparkly pink-red with golden red sparkles (NOT GLITTER). I'm not wild about the watermelon-y smell, but it isn't offensive. Color looks very natural and even livens up my complection (lll).
What really sold me was the price $10 for UD...HIP HIP HOORAY!

I received this as a gift and I have to say I'm impressed by it. The color is cherry-red, sparkly, and emits quite a shine. It smells pleasant too, and lasts a while longer than you'd expect. The packaging, like all Urban Decay products, is chic. My only complaint, of course, is that it's a click-gloss. I always somehow manage to go through these far too quickly because just getting the gloss out of the tube in a thrifty fashion is a challenge. As usual there's that "click-click-nothing, click-click-still nothing" factor, which is annoying. But, for the quality of the gloss I believe it's worth it.

Real.. pretty sheer red color. Love the glitter in it and looks great with my LLL skin. I scent isnt powerful and wont make you gag. The thing about this is that you have to twist the product a few times to get the color to come up with the packaging. I wish it came in a tube like the lipgunks, but however am fully please with this beautiful color.

Being a big fan of lip gunk, I couldn't wait to try the sparkler pen. I love reddish shades (since pinks get lost on my lips) and this one is super! Just a sheer gloss of red and golden sparkles. I love the fragrance too. Another winner from UD!

I exchanged Kiss lip gunk for this and I am very happy with it! I have fair skin, blue eyes, golden brown hair and the sheer red/golden shimmer of Firecracker really brought out the pink in my cheeks...in a *GOOD* way, not a "rosacia" way! It's weird, but it made my cheeks look like they had remnants of NARS Orgasm blush. Yep, keeper! I'm very excited about Firecracker. Good for daytime and casual nighttime. The golden shimmer really helps the lips look glossed and plumped without making it look like you're trying too hard. I took off one lippie because of the texture - makes my lips feel bumpy, I guess from all the sparkley bits. But whatever, I bought it anyway! Yay!!!

Urban Decay rarely disappoints me, and it's a hit again this time! I love love love Firecracker. Like what others have said, it's a sheer red shade with lots of golden shimmers. I'm lightly tanned Asian with rather pigmentated lips, and this shade really lights up my face even with minimal makeup. Now I'm lemming other shades too! ;-P

I love Urban Decay's new Sparkler Pens for Lips! They are pretty much shimmery version of those Stila Lipglazes except these ones are only $10!!! Firecracker is one of my faves! Against my MMM Stla D/E skin and on my pinky pigmented lips, Firecracker is a pretty sheerish pinky red w/ tons of golden shimmer! It's beautiful and shiny---the perfect warm pinky shade! You can easliy layer it on for more pigment. I'll definitely be buying more of these! :D
