I love this gloss. It's so pretty & simple, and it tastes like sugar babies. It's a frosty nude in the tube, and ends up a sheer neutral slightly frosty shade on the lips. Loverly. The best part is that the flavor doesn't "turn" like so many other flavored lip glosses do(coughCOVERGIRLcough). I've never tasted nasty mineral oil from this one, and that's enough to keep me repurchasing right there.

Pretty color in the tube but on my highly pigmented lips it looks like any other clear gloss. That being said, I do like the texture. Not too glossy just shiny-licious gloss. Would not repurchase NOT based on the quality of the product.

I love nude lipglosses and I have a collection of these from MAC (Spite, Languish, darjeeling, shock o late), Dior and Chanel. The color was so cute in the tube and so chic...back at home, i got transparent liquid then the color....Urgggggggghhhhhhh....I mixed it all on my hand to get the color on the tube and I got something greyish, transparent...Very disappointed......For information, Im NW45. I will give it away...

I love this! Smells like s'mores to me. Pale, nude brown color, really pretty. Good staying power. Would buy again.

The colour is a staple in my makeup regime: either paired with natural neutral make up, or with the smoky eye, this colour works fantastically on my super pale skin, blue eyes, and red hair.
The price makes this product forgivable even if you hate it.
The smell is oh so yummy - like baked goods.
The applicator, which i love, dispenses the exact amount of gloss that YOU WANT - you dont have to dependon that stupid want that many of us have to keep putting back into the tube to get more gloss. Very ingenius.
A big YES! for me

I love my Caramella. Its the only Shinylicious I use beacuse I want to, not because I have to use it up to justify buying something else. Its a nice neutral colour perfect for the office, pinky beigey, not the odd metallic colour in the tube. It also smells like my beloved Starbies frappucino and tastes vanilla-y. I am going to buy more of these in case they d/c them. For a cheap alternative, theres the BB cappucino lip lites, which I find very similar to this but can never find in the stores.

This gloss is a very pretty pinky beige metallic color which looks beautiful for a natural shiny look. Smells yummy too!

My friend gave this to me, and my first thought was: oh, it’s brown. Brown makeup and I don’t get along too well. I have really pale skin and it just looks awful on me. But despite this initial reaction I tried it and I’m glad I did! I adore the sponge tip and I’ve never had a problem with it leaking like others have. The smell is wonderful! Like caramel with a bit of cream. As for the color, it’s not nearly as dark as it looks. It’s not dark at all, very light nude. I keep this in my purse and use it quite a bit.
I know this is an older tube, so maybe Maybelline changed the formula? Because I don’t see how anyone could say this is sticky or smells like plastic!

i bought this on sale and fell in love. The color is the perfect summer shade, light brown with a touch of shimmer. The applicator tip is great, making it easy to dispense and apply, especially on the go.

I bought this one over a year ago, and it's a nice neutral gloss... I do tend to wear my MAC lip/lustreglasses more than this because they have much better staying power. But this is a nice natural lip, little bit sticky but not heavy.
I don't like the packaging - it's a squeeze tube so it leaks a bit into the cap, which is messy. Although I like the color, I wouldn't buy it again because of the poor staying power and packaging. I get a similar look with MAC's Beaux lustreglass, which I prefer overall.

Finally a nude I can wear! This is a cool taupe with a silvery shimmer. The texture is slightly tacky and it has good staying power because of it.
I have some trouble finding nudes that work and this one is very flattering.
It has a strange flavor that is supposed to be caramel I guess but it has a slightly wheat? flavor to it. It fades quickly enough for this fragrance sensitive wearer.

This is a beautiful nude shimmer--metallic beige. The texture is thicker than most lip glosses, but I like it. The perfect nude lip color for a smokey eye or just for an every day glow! Will purchase this color again and try the others.

This is such a pretty colour on me. It shows up sheer but with a hint of a golden tint and lots of shimmer. Looks gorgeous, smeels devine.

I am now obsessed with this lipgloss! It smells amazing, the packaging is easy to use, the texture is divine and the color is insanely pretty, a pinky, silvery taupe with a fine and gorgeous shimmer that enhances the lips and makes them look fuller. I can't imagine a nicer gloss. I never thought I'd find anything I prefer over L'Oreal Colourjuices, but I'd reach for this over a colourjuice, the texture is even nicer, the smell is super yummy and the color is insanely beautiful.

This is an awesome pearly beige brown. I wear this all the time. My only gripe is the horrendous plasticy smell. Will not buy again for this reason alone. There are a million glosses out there to choose from. I have never ever liked the way any Maybelline product has smelled.

This is the only one in this line I think I will use. While the texture of these is great- thick, shiny and lasting, excellent for a drugstore gloss- their various smells have been torture. This one is the exception, the caramel smell is wonderful and yummy. Tastes OK too. (The grape one literally made me gag.)
The color is pretty- it's a soft, neutral taupe, very light and sparkly. I like. I have several similar ones, but the smell of this one will make me use it more.
I'm indifferent to the sponge applicator. It looks weird, but it works fine. I suppose it will suck if I ever want to swap one though, you can't wipe it clean like a plastic squeeze tube applicator. Like other squeeze tube glosses, this one has tons of product for the money. (The clicky pens are the ones that are the worst deal ever!)

If I could, I would give this 3 and a half lippies because I like this gloss, but there is definitely room for improvement. The scent is a little strange, but it actually reminds me of my grandmother's fridge which is not such a bad thing. I could see how it would turn some people off, though. The color turns out a pinky beige on my lips and stays a bit longer than other glosses. The applicator can get a little messy. A pretty good gloss for the price.
