I'm on my second tube of Urban Decay's Shifty lipgunk. It's a pretty bronze color that smells like Chocolate Coconuts. This a great color to wear to work or just to hang around in. The best part is that is stays on better than most watery lipglosses.

Love it. Yet another reason to be a Gunk-Junkie.
MHO one of the "better consistency" gunks... not too thin not too thick, slippy-smooth but not runny or greasy. Has a shimmer but not gritty. Also has a pleasant coconut scent/flavor. (Kind of like a suntan oil coconut, though I guess that doesn't sound appetizing it IS nice, not bad!)
It's not quite as pigmented as it looks in the tube, but hey they said it's a 'sheer' golden bronze gloss, and that's what it is. What comes out is simply a lot of golden sheen. Makes your lips look aglow and glazed, good for a sunny daytime "alone" glossy look but also layers fabulously over gold and peach lipsticks.
Very good Urban Decay, as always another gunk i'm glad I got. =)

Was lusting after this forever & now that I have it I'm not disappointed! If you like coconut you'll love the scent, and the color is a very wearable copper/bronze shimmer. Has quickly become one of my favorite gunks!

This is described by Urban Decay as a "sheer, golden bronze," and I think that sums it up quite well. It is subtle, but not too subtle. The consistency is perfect (not too thick), and it smells divine. Like a Mounds Bar - coconut with a hint of chocolate.

I absolutely loove coconut smells, so i bought this. Since i got it, i'm always telling my friends "omg you have to smell this lipgloss!" it smells soo good. Everybody absolutely loves the smell, its really awesome. The color is defintely not as scary as it looks in the color swatches and even in the tube. It doesn't go on super frosty like Biker, its sheer and sparkly, but its mostly shiny and slightly bronze tinted. Really a good lipgunk, highly reccomended!

I purchased this off of Ebay, only having seen colour swatches on the internet. I was a little scared when I saw the colour (a peachy bronze), as I usually wear cool toned shades. However, when I put this on I was pleasantly surprised. It goes on sheer and leaves a hint of peachy shimmer. The smell reminds me of those coconut chocolate bars, I think they were called Bounty bars. Overall, it is a very pretty colour and will be great for late spring and summer.

when i first bought this, i thought it was kind of average - great smell and taste, and ho-hum color. i put it on a little thick (blame UD's wand, it's not great), so it looked super-frosty without much color.
but, man oh man, when i applied it with a lip brush, watch out! i have fabulous thick shiny lips. i have j-lo lips! normally, i have pale, thin, wasp lips. this is a big deal for me - all it took was shifty. that means no lip pencils, no lipstick, no frosty gloss in the middle to give the illusion of thick lips. shifty did it all.
a definite repurchase, and another great color from UD!

First off, yum! This does smell and taste just like Almond Joy. Second of all the colour is fabulous! A sheer, shimmering peachy-nudey-bronze, third the consistancy is nice, not too goopy or sticky, but just enough stickyness to stay put. Oh and did I mention, YUM!

ack horrible... color is similar to Baked... just get Baked. Gloss is not noisturizing, color makes me look dead, not that shimmery-stick with Baked if you want something shimmery.. this is not one of UD's best ones

I bought this because I was looking for a shimmery bronze lipgloss.I like the baked xxx shine lipgloss and this color looked pretty close to that so I gave it a try.After I applied this,it did NOT look like the color in the tube.It went on clear with just a hint of shimmer,no bronze color whatsoever.I am going to return this to sephora.

I strayed from this because the pic on sephora scared me. But I gave it a whirl and I'm thrilled. Its a sheer peachy/bronze on me. It'll look so good with my baked bronzer, don't let the pics of this scare you away!! Also the smell is heavenly, my bf threatened to eat it. :)

This is a really nice shimmery mocha color, just enough not to make this cool PPP look awful, and just enough to really stand out!It smells like cocoa, and is a lot of great, good quality, long-lasting product for a reasonable price, I will definitely be buying seconds!

the lipgunk that i've been waiting for! i only had the mini lipgunks, but never felt the urge to buy a full sized. when i tested this on my hand at sephora, i knew i had to get it. it smells super yummy (coconutty & chocolatey, like mounds bars), and on my lips its a pretty nudey peachy brown with subtle sparkle and lots of shine. looks a bit too orangey in the tube but not at all.

This is a unique color in that it is a sheer peachy-gold-bronze shade. More peachy gold on me though. It does have little sparkles in it that you can somewhat feel on your lips. It's a beautiful shade for spring and summer and it tastes delicious! Just like Mounds candy bar (coconut and chocolate). I was expecting more pigment, but I was pleasantly surprised. :) A definite must have in your collection!

At first I really didnt like this color as it is just too sheer to show up on my lips but I paired it with MAC's Spice liner and it really looks nice. The color is a nice peachy-bronze. While I plan on using this color often, I dont think I would rebuy it as I am just not cranky about the chocolatey-coconut taste.

I finally had the chance to test this out. I was anxious to try this because this was described as a bronzey brown. I found that to be untrue. On me, it is a peachy brown, with little or no shimmer to it (although it does look more shimmery in the tube). I was hoping that it would be less peach and more brown. The one smells like chocolate to me.

This is Urban Decays best nude in my opinion. It isn't too bronzey or too warm or too cool or too metallic. It is a wonderful melange of nude and brown with shimmer. This is a nude to try if nudes look bad on you. The smell is a bit wont to nausea though. I don't like scratch and sniff smelling glosses. Eep. But I do love this color.

Just RIS shifty! :) The color in the tube was a *tad* bit scary to me- a very bronzy-orange shade (with teeny tiny sprakles-very subtle) & I can't wear orange shades at all! (I'm a cool toned PPP) But luckily it goes on very sheer, so the color is more an warm peach w/ slight orange & bronze tones in it once on. On me, it defintley didn't go on the same shade as was in the tube-thank god! :) It almost was a YLBB shade, just maybe with a touch more peach color than my lips normally look. The smell is very different! I def. smell coconut, but I swear there are also hints of chocolate & honey in it too! Different, but still nice smelling. The texture seems a little thinner than my other lipgunks too btw. There have been comparisons to UD's rebel lipgunk (I have both now) and I would say that shifty & rebel are certainly in the same "color family", but that rebel is a more cooler, frostier peachy shade whereas Shifty is more of a warmer, more vibrant peachy bronze color. I def. think you shouldn't be put off first by the color you see in the tube- test it out & give it a try!

This is a really pretty sheer caramelly bronze. Really pretty and would be great for spring or summer.
