Tried this in a GWP, like the color and love the scent, but it is too sticky for me to repurchase, really does leave your lips tacky, hair sticking to them etc.

I love this. It's one of my favourites. Not only does it make you lips super shiny and glossy, it smells really nice too. It doesn't make your lips sticky either which i really like. It didn't last really long but who cares! With cute little tube i wouldn't mind re-applying it.

best lip gloss i've ever used! i love the passionfruit smell so much that it actually led me to purchase other TBS products from their passionfruit line (also great), the shine is intense, the color is subtle but gorgeous, and it feels great.

Got this from my aunt again. Really like this. I'm not a fan of passionfruit but the smell was something I got used to. Strangely, it didn't feel sticky for me at all and I like the subtle shine and color it gives. Makes me feel less conscious about my lips. Definitely an everyday staple.

I got this as a GWP. I like the way it looks, it adds a subtle ruby shimmer that's not too overpowering for my fair complexion. However, I hate the smell. It's supposed to be passionfruit, but it reminds me more of Earl Grey tea; I'm just not a fan. I will give it points for having great staying power, but it has a sticky, gloopy consistency that I find irritating.

Got this as a free gift. I'm not terribly interested in the Body Shop's cosmetics so I never would have bought this otherwise. I like it. It gives just the right amount of color and shine to my lips. It is rather sticky. I like the smell too - definitely passionfruit. It's a good product that performs as well as any high end gloss. One of my co-workers says that she likes this better than Lancome glosses.

I got a mini of this in a gift with purchase and thank god I did because I wouldn't have spent money on it. This is a standard lip gloss and I find it's very sheer. I carry it in my purse for in the middle of the day when I need some sheer color/shine. I am not crazy about the color at all and find it's quite blah even though there is a bit of sparkles in it. If you want one with more impact and color, pick up the Plum Pudding or Bronze Beam shade.

I find this to be very, very sticky. Maybe i'm not used to wearing glosses or something, but this really beats the stick for all sticky glosses, including Babypink, red earth, etc. 1 lippie off simply because its too sticky for my liking - i hate having strands of hair stuck on my lips, and stick on like superglue!

I got this in a GWP last month and was a bit skeptical to use it. I now regret waiting so long to try this gloss out. This gloss could very well compete with the infamous Juicy Tube. It's thick and goopey like a JT. The shine is intense and I love the shimmer. This color is a sheer reddish orange with golden shimmer. It smells like passionfruit with a hint of papaya. it looks very nice on my lips providing just a hint of tint and tons of shine. I am on my 4th tube of this now and will continue to purchase.

I recieved this as a gift with purchase, and was initially won over by the lovely passion fruit taste and scent. Everything else about this product I'm not very fond of. I find the texture to be heavy, waxy and sticky, the color too sheer, the glitter not flattering and the moisturization properties somewhet average. The texture of this gloss is what bothers me the most, and it includes a large amount of glitter, these glitter particles will go everywhere and stick to every unsuspecting surface. On my lips, this is yet another clear gloss with glitter, despite being the deepest and darkest shade in this line. I cannot bring myself to give this product less than 3 lippies becuase it really is a nice clear gloss for those who are looking for such a thing - but that wasn't entirely what I was hoping for since I like my glosses with more pigmentation. The smell and slight sweet taste are absolutely brilliant, and moreso - addictive. The amount of scent is just right, and the amount of taste is just right as well - very slight, yet still there. This isn't enough for me to want to repurchase this, I'd gladly use another GWP version but I'm hard pressed to believe I'd go out and buy this. If I need a lip "treatment" I will stick to The Body Shop's lipbalms instead, and in any case, all of their glosses and lipstick contain ingredients which are good for the skin.

My cousin and I were at TBS and she said she loves a gloss she bought from TBS and showed this gloss to me.She said it smoothes her lips.I bought one tube and she bought 2 to stock lol.I tried it and it really conditions and smoothes my lips and doesnt dry them.it gives high shine but it doesnt give enough colour.I use it to top my lipsticks.

I was a little disappointed that this wasn't as pigmented as it looked in the tube but it's still a really, really pretty lip gloss. It feels so good on - very moisturizing. It lives up to its name with its very glossy finish. It's not overly sticky though. Red Gleam is a pinky-red gloss with red glimmer. What really keeps me from buying more of these though is the smell. It's passion fruit, and I can't stand it. But that's just me. :)
