Moisturising without being sticky. However, it stings a bit when I use it, so I won't buy it again.

I think there's something in it I'm allergic to, it makes my lips itch almost as soon as I put it on.

Even ignoring that I don't really like it. It feels very thick and gloopy, doesn't really last that long and is quite sticky on the lips. I didn't find it moisturizing. I do like the pink colour though. They are quite sheer but still noticeable.

I don't like the tube type packaging. I think it's too easy to overapply and the applicator part ends up sticky and gross.

Wouldn't buy it again, really didn't like it.

I looove these glosses! They are super moisturizing and uber cheap! I have it in the pink version and its a beautiful sheer pink rose color. Perfeeecct! Definately give these a try. You can purchase them at the dollar stores. Have tried a lot of nivea lip stuff and these are by far one of the best. Would I repurchase? Yes! In the red version if I can.Only con is that I have noticed that this irritates the skin around my lips. Not a problem with me but if you have sensitive skin, Donot purchase!

This is my all time fave lip product, besides the MAC Tendertones. I love the subtle shimmery gloss, and they fact that it moisturizes my lips. The tube is a perfect size, and lasts a good month or too (with constant application) The scent is very subtle and appealing. I purchase this in the neutral as I don't like the look of my lips with a tint, only full on colour. Highly recommend, I am a fan for life!!!

I currently still have the brown shade of this. I'm not sure if it has a name. The gloss is brown in the tube, but when applied, they are sheer. Gives my lips a nice tint. I only need a little bit though, too much and it looks like I have just licked a bowl full of chocolate!! But I still like this gloss, very moisturizing and they have a nice scent too. Good to carry around with you. Don't know if I would buy this shade again though, but would be keen in trying out different shades.

I am really liking this product. Great to pop in the handbag for adding a bit of shine and colour to the lips without looking too 'made-up'. Has a nice sweet smell and smooth application, and doesn't look too over glossy, which is a bonus for me. Keeps my lips nice and moisturised throughout the day, and is dirt cheap! Will definitely repurchase this again.

I have this in two colours- Natural and the pink one(I don't know if it has a name)
The natural one- It was moisturising and it didn't feel sticky or anything. It gave a nice gloss as well, even though it was obviously transparent. Now, I had two gripes with the gloss. First, you have to make sure you don't apply too much, or it gets kind of gloopy. Also, it has a bit of a weird smell. Not horrible or anything, just a little overpoweringly sweet. However, it's not bad enough for me to avoid using it.
Pink- I really do love this one. I've owned hundreds of lip glosses/lipsticks/balms, and this has to my favourite. I love the colour, a slightly tinted pink. It has the same moisturising feel of the natural colour, but it isn't as floppy and it has a much nicer smell. This is definately one of my beauty essentials!
Basically, I would recommend the pink, and I'll probably be buying it again! I'm not so sure about the Natural gloss. Maybe I just need to get used to it!

Love this product. My lips are always dry and any old chapstick is too boring for my liking. I dont know the name of the colour i have but its a settle pink with a bit of shimmer. This product does it exactly what it says it would. Perfect for everyday wear and it lasts for hours!

I have this in 5 colours:
- clear (this on has a strange smell, don;t know if these have use by dates
- clear/light pink with glitters
- (barbie) pink
- red
- brown/mocca

I love these lip glosses, they are marketed as liptreatments in NL but I use them as lipglosses. The colours are very pigmented and stay put a good couple of hours.

A combination of colour and excellent care. It does live up to its name. It hydrates my lips and gives them an ultra glossy look.

I would defenitely repurchase each and every one of them.

On my last trip to New Zealand, I picked up a three pack of these-one was neutral, bordering on off-white, the other was a pearly, light frosty pink, and the third (my favorite) was a sheer, clear, 'true' red, with a berry scent and flavor. The first two, I blew through in fairly short order. Their color was unremarkable. Still, they worked well. Finally, enter the red version. Slightly sticky, but no more sticky than MAC Lipglasses, in my opinion. Comes in a 10ml tube, and is the German manufactured version, which I prefer to the North American marketed ones, which are made in Mexico. Performs and does precisely what it needs to. Nice combination of lip care ingredients and sheer shine. Easy to apply and lasts. A warmly welcomed and ongoing addition to my ever-expanding gloss/balm collection.

Perfect combination of a gloss and a balm. It's cheap and it smells great and hydrates like nothing else. It isn't sticky or thick either. The colour is a great, subtle, natural pink on my pigmented lips. I love this, and will repurchase over and over.

My lipglosses don't offer enough moisture. My lip balms don't offer much colour. This is the perfect combination of colour that offers superb moisture! Plus the moisture lasts most of the day, with minimal re-application required. Not to mention the cost is great, at $5 and availalbe at most drug stores.

I live in Alberta and it is terribly dry here. A few days ago my lips were dry, flaky and splitting all over. The pile of lipgloss deemed NO GOOD for my lips in their current state was quickly growing. Then I tried Nivea Caregloss and my lips are smooth and pain-free! It has a lovely tint and does not leave my lips feeling sticky at all.
It cost me $5.99 but it definitely feels like at least $16.99!


---------------------------------
UPDATE:
it appears they have changed the formulation, it makes my lips sting now! I am reducing it to 3 lippies.

I have this in the Natural shade. I wasn't actually expecting this to be very moisturising at all, as in past experiences lip 'balms' that are also 'cosmetic/gloss' usually sacrifice their moisturising properties for more of a make-up effect. However, whilst it isn't massively moistursing, it doesn't dry out my lips either, and is quite a nice, slightly shimmery nude-clear shade for daywear (I never normally wear lipstick or gloss throughout the day preferring just a balm, but this is quite neutral). It's also not as sticky as regular lip gloss (good for windy days when your hair gets blown onto your lips!!). I wouldn't wear it to treat my lips when they get dry/cracked due the weather, having a cold etc., but it's a nice change from wearing just a regular moisturising balm. It has a very artificial (fruit?) sort of smell that isn't offensive but is a little bit too strong, but for the very cheap price that's not really anything to quibble about.

One last thing about this - for some reason whenver I use it I get a very slight dry, scratchy feeling at the back of my throat. Slight enough that it doesn't mean I'll never use it again, but I definitely wouldn't use it all day every day.

This is a pale pink gloss with pinky gold shimmer shot through. It has quite a thick consistency and is fabulously moisturising. I picked this up because I needed something that really deep conditioned, and I’m pleased to say this fits the bill nicely. Not sticky, although a tad gloopy…not that this negates any of the loveliness. The fact that it looks similar to MAC prrr was a perk I wasn’t expecting (not an exact match, mind!) It makes lips look fuller and plumper (probably the glossiness) and the cheap as chips price makes me one happy camper =)

Love it !!! Used plenty of expensive Lip glosses and this one is the best so far. Fully moisturisers my lips and brings out the natural colour in my lips. Go for it, in Coles for like $5.00 = bargain.

Wow. This is pretty much one of the best lipglosses I've ever tried, and I've tried a fair number. I bought this in the red shade and it gives my lips a subtle red tint and a pretty sheen. Nonsticky and very moisturizing. I honestly have nothing bad to say about it.

I bought a caregloss in the natural peachy colour. I really like this product because it is so moisturising, it is a beautiful nude colour and it is shimmery and shiny! Plus it lasts so long on your lips unless you eat or drink. I use this all the time :)

I love lipgloss but hate how sticky the majority of glosses on the market are. I've tried loads. I actually got one of these Nivea Caregloss & Shines free, and it is GREAT. The tube has an angled applicator so it's nice and easy to apply, and the texture is like wearing Vaseline on your lips so it moisturises as well as giving you sheer colour.

I've got one in pink, which was the freebie, and red. The pink isn't my favourite. It's quite pale pink on me, and not really my cup of tea in terms of colours as I tend towards either neutral browns or darker pinks. The red is gorgeous though, it's almost fuschia on me rather than an orangey red. I've been hunting for a non-sticky red lipgloss for ages now and this is it - and it cost less than £3!
