I really love the thick texture and the minty smell/taste.

The shades are awesome, too.

However, I have great ISSUES with the packaging -- first of all, you get a teeeeeny amount of product for the price. And second, this little bottle OOZES soooo bad, ughhhh, it has oozed all over my makeup case.

I disagree with the previous reviewer. Yes, the bottle is small, but it contains 0.23 oz. A MAC gloss is 0.17 oz and most squeeze tube glosses are 0.34 oz.

Having said that, the texture of the gloss is rather sticky and thick. It's best applied with a separate lip brush.

I have Revel and it's an orangey-red color. It looks quite nice on my very pigmented lips.

The things that I disliked about this gloss was the fragrance (plasticky mint) and the squat bottle. I received it in a swap, but wouldn't have purchased this otherwise.

Man, I feel like a dupe! First of all, these are microscopic in size. I can't believe I spent almost 18 bucks on these. When I opened my Sephora package and saw these, I seriously thought they were samples. That's how effing small they are. Okay, now onto the actual product, which seems pretty average in my opinion. It's staying power is decent enough. The colors I ordered were "Delicious" (a shimmery pinkish-mauve) and "Sizzle" (a sparkly cherry hue)and both are rather ho-hum, which is disappointing because I was really jazzed about them. Especially Sizzle. I'll wear them, but I certainly will not repurchase. Bottom line: Don't waste your moola on this rip off. There are other glosses of better quality and quantity for the price you pay.

Love the polish. It doesn't have great staying power but it has a nice taste and smell which aren't common for glosses. The packaging does leak and it's a pain to clean up.

I like the concept of the packaging, and like the texture and pigmentation of this gloss. Its just that it tastes the way wet pavement smells.
Its too weird for me

I really like these lip glosses! I bought the new set that comes with 8 different colors. I feel like they last quite a while. Most colors are gone on me after 2 hours, and this stays on all day! Bought the set for $25 at Sephora.

Positives: Favorite color is Tickle--perfect nude color, ultra shiny, youthful and sexy gloss. I like the minty smell and it's paint-brush style application is fun. Impressive looking when very freshly applied.

Negatives: Price, which is too high for such a little amount. Worse yet, the packaging-- product always collects under the applicator and so even more product is wasted. Wears off quickly and easily--needs a lot of re-application to stay looking colorful and very shiny. A bit sticky/tacky, too, but many glosses are.

RIS in the shade Tease and I never would have thought to try this if it weren't for that fact. I normally use MAC's clear lipglass, but the first time I tried this I fell in love. I, for one, love the little bottle it comes in. It's easy to apply and the packaging is absolutely adorable. I never would have thought to stray from MAC, but I'm glad I took a chance on this one. It's the perfect shade and I love the fact that it doesn't make my lips feel like they're glued together. :)

when i first got into these lip polishes i was infatuated with them (i have bliss and beauty), but now i have changed my opinion somewhat.

pluses:

1. great colors and shine factor!
2. very portable and petite, but still lots of product
3. they smell great

minuses:

1. packaging leaks sometimes in your purse (ew)
2. must reapply often

taking all of this into consideration, i have awarded lorac's lip polish 3 lippies. if you want a great lip gloss, go chanel glossimer. i stray from it and always go right back!

I felt like I was putting on gold dust. You have to like the way gold looks on your skin to appreciate this product. I have olive skin and it wasn't for me.

I have this in bliss, and i LOVE it... when i looked at it i thought it would be blech shimmery porn star taupe, which it is if you put on too much, but a little goes a long way. it is super shiny, and although i dont like the smell of mint, i can tolerate it for this gloss. and about the people who think it is so small... the packaging is small, but the product is not, at .23 oz it is bigger than ud lipgunk (.20) mac lipglass (.17) and most other lipglosses, it is just the packaging that is tiny. the packaging does somewhat leak though.

I have Tempt (? one of the Beigey ones). I like the way it makes my lips look - VERY wet, BUT I don't like 1) the smell (some plasticky mint smell) and 2) the packaging. It leaks like crazy and gets messy goop around the opening, even though I clean it and make sure it's tightly screwed on each time. So, a 3. Not a repurchase - I expect more from a non-ds product.

LORAC Lip Polish in TENDER is gorgeous on my medium complexion. I receive TONS of compliments on this gloss. It's the perfect peachy/caramel color that is oh-so-natural, yet imparts an unmatchable gloss. If you are tanned, this color is AWESOME. Highly recommended. I buy mine at Sephora - in person. Had it shipped once from Nordstrom and the product was imperfect and unusable.

I have three of these Amuse, Celebrate, and the new spring Luv! Amuse is a bright hot pink, Celebrate is a peachy apricot, and Luv is a shimmery pinky peach. Celebrate and Luv look awesome together.
I love love love these glosses! The smell, the packaging and the gloss are all beautiful. The only complaint that I have is that they leak. But they are ohh so cute!

Words cannot express how wonderful these are. I have them in Amuse, Kiss, and Bliss. Amuse, being one of my all-time favs, is the ultimate pale pink, super-shiny, great consistency. Kiss and Bliss are more special-occasion glosses. The packaging is adorable but leaks sometimes.

It is easy to put the glss with the brush. But at same time, it's so easy to loose the little bottle :( Great nude colors and it smells mint. It does not stay long but the texture is good. If you like nude colored gloss, I definitely recommend this.

I honestly believe that you get what you pay for but $15 is alot to pay for skin irritation in a tiny bottle. This stuff irritates the hell out of my lips everytime i put it on. I'm not sure what's in the ingredients but it sure gives my lips the itch/burn & cold-sore like blisters.

I'm loving this stuff! I have no idea what took me so long to try it, but now I'm so glad I did. These glosses are so many things that I love in gloss: super shiny with a smooth, even texture in a formula that's not at all sticky. The packaging is not exactly my *favorite* but it's fun as a novelty. I got this in Tickle, which is a gorgeous nude color that somehow manages to combine pink, peach and beige. It's absolutely stunning on the lips.

I have thi lip polish in Tempt, while I love the color, gloss and consistency...I have the same complaints like everyone here, the packaging!! mine leaks on my purse and my makeup case...makes it so messy.

So I probably won't be buying them again. By the way, I thought Delux Lip Polish have the same consistency as Lorac's but with better packaging.

Yum, yum, yummmyyy! I love these! I have 4 different colors and I use them at least 5 days a week. I know that some people have talked about the bottles leaking, but I have been very fortunate that the ones I keep in my purse have never leaked. This is great for that ultra-high gloss / maximum lip pout look. I also find they work terrific in the winter when my lips are really dry. They protect and keep all the moisture in! Fabo!
