This a really pretty golden muavy color. This is very similar to MAC's Lovechild but less pigmented and more on the pink side. The shimmer on this very pretty and appears somewhat on the red side. The value on this is phenomenal. Its not too sticky but has great staying power.Most of all its one of those lipglosses that can be worn all on its own.

A pretty plummy shade, a nice MLBB. It goes good with a smokey eye. Again, like the other HIP glosses, the applicator hole is the size of a pin, which does make it hard to apply. The color is so pretty that I would repurchase despite this.

For something that is supposed to be "High Intensity Pigment", I was sorely disappointed to find this very sheer and not very pigmented at all. It was just another sheer lip gloss. The little bit of color was pretty enough, just way too sheer.

I wouldn't buy this again, or try another color from the line.

i was so lemming this & i finally found it...but was disapointed. i was hoping for the perfect mauve that it looks like in the tube but on my lips it has this weird orangish tinge to it. if i put it on sheer its ok but if i put on a little too much the orange tinge is really noticable. i love the other color i have though,its called precious. ill repurchase but not in this color.
NOTE: tried on my daughter (dark blonde,tan skin,green eyes) & this color matches her lips perfectly. it looks so pretty & natural on her that i might just give it to her.

Not one of my favorite colors in this line. The color is very sheer on my lips. Just a basic nude which I have a lot of.

i am a black female w/ brown skin and this lipgloss looks great on me. It has become one of my favorite lipglosses and i agree with whoever said this shade looks awesome on people with darker skin.

I LOVE this lip gloss. It surprised me. It's awesome for tan people. lol That's all I can tell, haha. It's a nice natural, a bit shimmery, pink with a tad bit of brown. I LOVE IT.
Repurchase?
Why of course!

Got this on clearance at Kmart for $2. I absolutely love it. Stays on nicely, moisturizes, and though I'm not crazy about the scent, I will overlook the sweetness of it because the color is so pretty - lovely shiny mauve shade. LOVE it, will repurchase at full price if I have to. Though hopefully I can get it BOGO. ;-)

Its a mauvey color with like pinkish shimmer. gorgeous i tell ya! it has a really overpowering scent of vanilla, but i dont mind it much. one of the most pigmented gloss ive come across. want to try other colors now! will repurchase~

This is a well pigmented gloss! Lovely deep plum that is great for a darker lip. Not a hugely shiny, but has a nice balmy gloss effect. Smells Heavenly!

I really like the HIP glosses, I find them to be well pigmented and long lasting. Like many others have said this is a perfect MLBB shade. Also a little goes a long way, I imagine one tube would last awhile. The only thing that I don't particularly care for is the sweet smell.

I was lucky to find this on sale. I normally don't use colored lip products, pretty much just balm for me. I was really impressed with how nude/neutral it was, but it gave enough punch to stand out. It feels great and it looks great.

I absolutely love this lip gloss!!! This is my favorite lip gloss so far. It's just like Viva Glam V lip gloss from MAc. But I like the texture of L'Oreal much better. It's more comfortable for my lips. And it lasts long. The color is like sheer mauve with gold shimmer. I love love love love love it~!!!! I'll definitely buy more.

This is a lovely long lasting nude daytime color. Great for day. I keep it in my purse. I think these glosses look younger & fresher than lipstick but still offer enough color for us lipstick lovers. I have 4 of these now & when there is a sale I'm getting more!

This is a beautiful shade in the tube, and I was very excited about it. But I found the formula to be kind of heavy and gummy and the shade was kind of a blah, taupe that washed me out.

I own a lot of lip glosses (something of a compulsion, I'm afraid) so I haven't worn this one all that much, maybe 5-6 times, but every time I do I'm pleased with it. It's a slightly nude MLBB shade, has good lasting power, and just makes me look polished without being too overdone; the shimmer is pretty subtle. Good daytime shade when paired with a relatively smoky eye. A little thick, but not too sticky, and the scent is pleasant. Lasting power is about 2 hours, but that's par for the course with me and glosses. I'm not entirely sure if I'd repurchase simply because I have soooo many lip glosses and L'Oreal's prices are getting ridiculous for a drugstore brand - and where I live the HIP line is at an even higher pricepoint, roughly $10 for one of these suckers. Worth a try, though, particularly if you can find it on sale.

This shade looks like the lovechild of HIP Dreamer and HIP Darling lipglosses. It's such a beautiful shimmery mauve. Wears well like the others. Another winner for me!

I am fan of L'Oreal cosmetics--they comprise the bulk of my makeup collection. I have naturally mauve lips. I bought the HIP Adoring wanting a definite purplish shade. It has a mauvey tone in the tube with a subtle gold shimmer. On my lips, it has a rich deep shine, with about one shade difference in color. I love it, and especially love experimenting layering over my other lipsticks.
This is my first HIP purchase, and I will be buying more colors to play with.

I avoid lip gloss. I have full lips that have its good days and bad-- sometimes its light and pinkish and on others, its darker than I hope for. On the "bad days", lip gloss accentuates the uneven color of my lips. My main motivation for buying this is that it has high pigment density (more pigments to cover the darker outlines of my lips). I was extremely happy with the delivery of color this has. It evened out my lips without having the relatively heavy look of lipstick. Very natural. On my lips (and my probably because of my tan Asian skin) it has a very sutle coral tinge despite the old-rose pink it seems to look like, perfect for spring/summer. Hands down to coverage! Gloss is perfect. Staying power is also great. No doubt the best gloss I've ever tried. I'm purchasing more shades of the HIP lip gloss.

It gives my lips a very nude look, which is hard to do seeing that they are pigmented. It reminds me of the color they put Angelina Jolie's lips when they want to tone down. I don't dislike this color it just doesn't move me.
