I guess I'm in the minority as this wouldn't be a colour I'd repurchase. I usually love peachy shades, but this was a little two yellowy-brown for my complexion and I got none of the pink that some reviewers seemed to be seeing. On me (neutral skin, green eyes, light golden blonde hair), it was workable, but nothing special. I did like the refreshing lemony scent though - I get fed up of saccharine-sweet vanilla scented glosses sometimes.
So, a nice semi-sheer, lightly shimmery, peachy-tan gloss if that's your thing. But I'll stick with more peachy-pink shades.

Very flattering, sheer glossy color. I enjoy the scent/taste, as it's very refreshing. Sometimes, right after I brush my teeth, I don't want to put something sugary sweet on my lips. It seems to have a hint of pink to it when the light hits it. Also, I swear it makes my lips appear fuller.

I was pleasantly surprised by this color as for some reason I was expecting it to be pale lemon colour but it's actually a shimmery peachy nude with the hintest tint of pink which is extremely flattering on my olive toned skin. The formula is not at all sticky and it lasts for a reasonable amount of time.

This looks great with a well dressed cheek and smudgy eyes. I love the jumbo size of this too!!

I'm a huge fan of stila's lipglazes, and this one is no exception. Lemongrass has the same thick, sticky consistency that the lipglazes have, but the color is a bit more opaque than normal. My lips are very pigmented pink, and this seemed to cover them up quite well with no lipstick or liner! The color is a beautiful peachy-nude with just a hint of pink. I just got this, but I'm already thinking this is going to be one of my HG lipglosses! It's so beautiful on my tanned skin with a brown smoky eye. It smells of lemons, not unlike Fresh's Gloss Absolute. For reference: MMM-GGG, NC35-40, black hair, brown eyes.

I have 2 of these. I just bought 2 cause the color was gorgeous, and the name sounded yummy. Stila lipglazes are my new obsession. Its a peachy tan, but it goes on sheer with a tint of peach. And it smells kind of like cleaning products, but in a pleasent way. For the price I just wish they gave you more

Love, love this product! I actually came across is at Marshalls of all places for $4.99 and bought it, not realizing that this stuff goes for $22 at Sephora! The color is very nude, but does have a slight peachy shade to it. Absolutely gorgeous, very natural and wearable. Love it!

Beautiful nude pink lip gloss. Shiny! I use it after Rimmel 18 addiction lip liner and the result is goergeous! I used to be a lipstick person and now I'm wearing this gloss every day. Will purchase again!

I love Stila's lip glaze's! I was a little bit hesitant about this colour at first, however it is soo nice! The colour lemongrass is a sheer, glossy neutral gloss. My lips a fairly pigmented, and this gloss adds neutral gold shimmer and makes my lips look so nice and full and glossy. It's almost a neutral peachy tone. I absolutely love it! I was lucky as well as I bought it rather cheaply off ebay! yay! The smell, is well i guess it's lemongrass, it's smells fresh but grassy (if that makes sense), but I don't mind it as my lips look awesome. No stickyness, and stays on my lips for a long time! will repurchase back-up.

Such a gorgeous shade in the tube (peachy-nude with golden shimmer) but no color payoff - it doesn't really show up on my lips and they're pretty unpigmented. I do like to mix it with pale peach/nude lipsticks, particularly MAC Awaken and Nars Belle du Jour, but for me it's unwearable alone which is why I wouldn't repurchase.

Very pretty color. A light peach. It smells like, uh, lemongrass? It's a little weird but nothing I can't deal with. Not sure what it tastes like. It's really smooth but sticky. Again, nothing I can't deal with. I wouldn't rebuy this shade because I'm not sure the color is right for me (PPP) and it smells weird but I would try other lip glazes.

When I saw there's a lipglaze with a lemongrass scent, I *had* to get it! I love lemongrass! However, scent-wise it actually does not smell like lemongrass. But it's slowly growing on me. Then, the color came as a pleasant surprise - a very natural nude pink that's ultra glossy of course! It's the near-perfect MLBB color for me! I would wear this on days when I want to look casual. In fact, I find the color so verstile, it goes with all the different eye colors I've tried to pair it with! Especially with the stronger eye looks. I find it rather expensive though, but I will repurchase since I actually like the color.

I finally decided to get this to go with the Bamboo Blossom palette (also purchased Mystic Pearl palette and Lychee lipglaze - hope to review those in due course). I wasn't too sure about Lemongrass after reading the tepid reviews on here, but when I saw it at the counter I just knew I had to have it. It is a lighter, shimmery version of Banana which I absolutely adore. Love the colour on my lips - a low-key shimmery nude beige. It looks fab with the Bamboo Blossom colours. I first lightly lined my lips with MAC's Spice just to up the coral tones a bit, then applied quite a liberal quantity on...and it looks great. Love the Lipglaze texture, love the pen applicator (I know I'm going against the grain here!). The only downside - the scent....eeeeurgh! It has a plasticky chemical lemon scent which is not pleasant...at all. The first time I applied this I almost gagged. However, a few applications later, the smell seems to have gone...or perhaps I've become immune to it, who knows! So to summarise - looks good, smells not so good :) Me : Asian NC200, LSF5, medium pigmented lips.

Blegh....
The color of this is SOOOO gorgeous... too bad the smell is gross. I excpected maybe a nice fresh citrusey scent, but stila chose to actually make it smell like lemongrass :S kinda strong herbally grossness. Dammit, I shoulda got mango.

This is a beautiful shade: a very pretty beige pink-peach with muted shimmer. If I really pile it on, it gives me a perfect ultra-glossy YLBB mouth. Unfortunately the actual color lasts about 30 minutes before becoming transparent. And yes, the lemon scent is strong - even my cat recoils from me when I wear this.

I tried this Spring 2005 re: Orient lipglaze at the Stila counter, just as the girl was setting up the display and taking the items out of the boxes to make testers.
I think this is a pretty color, shimmery burnt orange. It's sheer, but shows up nicely on my medium pinky-brown lips/Stila C shade/NC25-30. The only thing that kept me from purchasing it is the weird smell, like strong lemon scented bathroom cleanser, yuck. If I can get over the smell, I'll buy it, thus the reason for my "yes" for "would you buy this product again?"

Retails for $20, comes with re-Orient Spring Collection 2005. Stila is notorious for 'recycling' color, and their lipglazes are not the exception either. It goes on nude peach with very light pigmentation - it basically goes on clear on my lips. Think of a cross between Apricot and Banana lip glaze with shimmer: it is a tad browner than Apricot and a tad lighter/peachier than Banana. The scent reminds me of Lychee jelly that you can get at bubble tea place. My $0.02? The look can easily be achieved by using either Apricot or Banana, maybe with the Nude lipglaze liner underneath. The gloss is so sheer that it won't be noticable; evenmore so if you use the Kira lipstick underneath. Save your $$ and enjoy your existing glosses (But I know this is not what you want to hear :-))
