This an okay lip gloss I guess. I got this in Clearly Pink at Target. Can't remember how much I payed for it, but it wasn't expensive. It the tube it looks like a tinted pink gloss that's clear. That's exactly how it was on my lips. It's basically clear with not much color. It does bring out my lips natural color. The gloss wasn't sticky. It has a doe foot applicator, nothing special. I'm not disappointed with this gloss, I was just expecting more? It's pretty average and I will not be repurchasing. I'd rather spend my money on a lipgloss by Mark.

Nehh. The Lip Polish line are okay, I guess. Personally, I prefer a sheer gloss to a more sold gloss, so I don't like these very much. They're really thick, VERY colored (especially on the lips), and don't have very much shine. More like a lipstick than a lip gloss. I definetely won't be buying again.

These glosses are just okay. I've had many shades of this gloss and the taste is awful. The formula is a tad drying and gritty. I do not like these very much, although, some of the coors are pretty.

I never bought these when they first came out, but found them at a dollar store today so I thought why not! I got 'Girly Pink'. The color looked peachy pink, but on my pigmented lips it just looks like more of a clear gloss. So the color was a dissapointment. I thin I'll go pick up a few of the darker colors. The taste was a little artificial and plastic. However, I love how glossy this is and it has good staying power. So i'm on the fence with it so far.

Purchases two of these glosses years ago. Ashamed to admit how old they really are. Just can't think of letting them go. My perfect never fail HG RED and PURPLE. I think they are Drama Diva(blood red with red sparkles) and Funky Diva(browned-plum with plum sparkles). More like a liquid lipstick. Have to keep my eye on it, couple of people have try to pocket them.
Smooth texture,stays on well, & highly pigmented. I think they were $5 at CVS. It was a LE display Hollywood Divas or something like that. I'm DDD NW45 or L'Oreal HIP#818.

I have this in Oriental Spice, a pearly pinkish plum color and I love it! I actually prefer this over my other drugstore lip glosses (Revlon Superlustrous and Loreal Colorjuice - the Shiny-licious lip glosses, however, are a tie). This is one of the most moisturizing lip glosses I have ever tried and feels like a slightly thicker version of chapstick to me. I haven't had a bad experience with the color but at this price you can afford to try out several colors and drugstores are usually pretty good at letting you exchange your purchases.

I have this in Sweet Blush, and I love it. I believe I have a light brown one too, but I haven't worn it in a while to remember what it looks like, but I know it didn't look bad at all. I'd like to try Maybelline Lip Polish in a coral-ish color if they have that. I'd repurchase this.

I originally bought this product in nude flush and it was a disaster. The color was metalic white gold and it looked just awful. I would't wear it even on Halloweed. Anyway, thank god, the local drug store let me exchange with different color and I got in Girly Pink. I am pretty happy with the product. The color is very cute, though it is not the same as it appears on the package. I usually wear mauve color, but htis pink is a natural look and good alternative to the mauve. Texture is fine, too.Oh, I bought this product for buy-one-get-one-free so it was a great deal too. If you like natural look, I recommend this product :)

I bought a stila lip polish in the color "spangle" and it is one of best gloss that I saw in my life. is like water in your lips with color and is not sticky. Is awesome. But, I was thinking that $20.00 for a gloss is a high price and I am not a expert in glosses. For that, I went to the store for return it and have my $20.00 back........
Then, I went to the pharmacy and I bought a Maybelline lip polish in the color "Girlie pink" and one NYC gloss. NO, NO, NO.... the firts one (Maybelline) look horrible in my lips, cheap, sticky. And the NYC taste uuuuuuugly!!!!!!!!
I will return it too! It was really cheap but I never will use it.
I mii the Stila gloss now. I think that the quality is so good that maybe for that is a little expensive. It is a like a liquid lipstick.

Now I don’t need to repurchase Lancôme Star Gloss in “Sweet Marilyn” – Maybelline Lip Polish in “Nude Flash” is almost identical to Lancôme’s “Sweet Marilyn.” When applying both glosses next to each other on the back of my hand, I had trouble telling them apart. The Lip Polish texture is slightly thicker than Star Gloss’, though. My sister pointed out that "Sweet Marilyn" was just a tiny tad more pink, but the difference is very slight.I ordered this gloss from ULTA.com (live in Sweden, and we don’t have Maybelline Lip Polish here anymore), and for around $3 it was a good buy! No weird taste or smell, lasts OK for a gloss and looks great with my pale skin, blond hair and blue eyes.

I bought these a while ago, and threw them out. I got the colors pink cadillac and this one that was like a clear pink but I don't know what it was called. I think this is a good gloss if you like really shiny lips, but me personally, I don't like very shiny lips, I prefer a slight shine. Another thing I didn't like was that the clear one was very sticky, and it was annoying how it would stick to my hair. The pink cadillac didn't have that problem as much though. Also, the clear one smelled kind of gross. And the pink cadillac was very gritty. So to sum it up:

Pros: Cheap, a lot of shine, nice colors, pretty good packaging.

Cons: Can be very sticky (esp. if you get clear), smells weird (but maybe it was just mine), gritty

I much prefer lipsmackers lip frostings, they aren't gritty and they taste good. But they don't last long. Actually the main reason I ever wear lip gloss is because it tastes/smells good. So basically I just didn't this product, but I could see someone else liking it.

The top reason I like this gloss is because it is not harsh on lips, its actually moisturizing. A lot of products leave my lips dry and peeling- not this one.

I have this in nude flash, which looks really metallic and bizarre if you load it up on your lips. You have to either wipe the wand off and apply it sparingly around the edges of your lips, or blot with a tissue after full application. If you do one of these things, you'll have a nude, shimmery & beautiful result.

I also tried this product in pink cadillac, which I wasn't as impressed with. It had very little pigment- looked clear and a bit frosty.

This gloss has good staying power and the smell is not too strong. The lettering on the tube wears off quickly, however.

Did anyone else notice that their gloss leaked? If I dont screw the top on super tight, the darn thing leaks into the handle, and I seriously hate that. Such a waste. Also, I totally argee with the other poster who said that her tube ws a totally different color once she mixed it up. I bought rainbow sherbet and it was a nice peach color, but turned a super bright pink when i mixed it up. I am dissapointed by this, but because I like the smooth texture of the gloss, I think I will give another color a shot.

I was kind of suspicious of this product, as I normally don't expect much of drugstore make-up. They had BOGOF at my local Rite-Aid. I figured 2 for $5.00 was fine, if I didn't like them, I could just chuck them! I was pleasantly surprised and have actually been wearing these more than my high end ones! I got Girly Pink and Sweet Blush. These have a good amount of pigment.The Girly Pink isn't frosted,and it is the perfect bright pinky-coral on me. The Sweet Blush is a neutral pink with golden shimmer, and it's not overly shimmery.I am so used to MAC lipglass, that I am a bad judge of texture.I can't comment on the "stickiness" factor, since that doesn't bother me. To me these have a nice smooth texture, and they stay on well (I wear them over lipstick and lipliner). I would definetely repurchase, they are great quality for the price!

Sweet Blush looks pale pink in the tube, but goes on clear with a little bit of goldish shimmer. It is relatively shiny, and lasts through some snacks and a drink before having to reapply. For me, its price (over $5) isn't worth it for such a sheer color. Even though, Maybelline does have a wide variety of colors that I haven't tried, so I'll check back. EDIT: Moved into (IMO) longer-lasting and more versatile L'Oreal ColourJuices & Neutrogena MoistureShine.

I bought this in Pink Cadillac. It's a nice sheer pink color (almost clear). It stays on for a couple of hours without reapplying and has no scent. It's not sticky and I like a lot better than more expensive brands I've bought like Smashbox.

i've used this for about 2 years (sweet blush and a pinch of pink). i'll give this product 3 'lippies' because:

pros: pretty colors, not a bad price

cons: some colors too glittery, thick texture, colors wear out over time

I have this in Sweet Blush....bought it like three months ago and my tube is almost empty. I'm usually a department store girl (love Clinique, Nars, MAC, Lauder, Lancome, Chanel and the list goes on) when it comes to glosses. What I love about this l/g is that there is no smell to it. The color that I got is a light rich pink with subtle shimmer. It's not sticky at all, which is prolly why you might have to reapply every hour or so. But, great product for something that's under $10. Plus, there's at least 10 colors to choose from. It's the gloss I use at home when I don't feel like using one of my $20 glosses. Love it!
