These are good in concept. They remind me a lot of L'Oreal Rouge Pulp in that they are lipglosses that cover like lipsticks. However, although both come in a wide range of colors, almost none of the colors are flattering. This perturbs me.

I've tried a couple of these (don't recall the names as I gave them away). They were rather "blah" to me -- I wasn't impressed and didn't really care for the colors.

This was rather average, but I am not crazy about this product. It wasn't taht this product was bad, it didn't have offensive taste, but the 2 colors I tried seemed to be sort of thin, and while they were shimmery they weren't that glossy.

Maybe I got a bad tube, but I found this to be a horrid product! I bought this in Nude Flash and was very disappointed. Judging by the name, I expected this to be glossy, but there is no shine at all! The texture of the "gloss" is thick, gooey, and feels heavy on my lips. And to tope it all off, the smell of this is overpowering and unpleasant. Very perfumey. I think I'm going to have to toss this one.

Love this stuff. The texture is so nice, sourta gel based (?) maybe. It feels really good on my lips. The colors turn out pretty sheer, but I actually just prefer the clear one anyways. The texture makes it the perfect clear gloss.

I just brought these today from a drugstore and were reduced so I grab a couple, I have light flash and a mauve one. The problem I had was I had an awful taste in my mouth from the gloss and scent. The lip polish was not shiny it was creamy like lipstick, But because these were on sale, great for touch ups now and again

A good average run of the mill gloss. Staying power isnt great however. Texture is not too thick and not too thin. I LOVE the Nude Flash. It's the ONLY nudish lip look I can pull off without looking washed out.

I so like the packaging for this. The applicator isnt all that soft, but it does the job. As for the gloss itself, I have it in Crystal Clear. Average staying power, average shine. The clear gloss doesnt have scent/taste. It's a good, but very plain gloss.

I had been eyeing this product for many trips to the drugstore!!! It was only under $6CDN, but I'm a definite sucker for impulse buying lip goodies at the drugstore!!! I bought this lip polish in Nude Flash - a great golden nude color - and it's just great! It's the perfect neutral color for summer and looks great with a tan. The consistency is all right - i'm used to the super sticky lipglasses - but this is definitely not sticky and feels almost weightless on. If you're expecting a lot of shine - nude flash probably isn't the one for you! it's a great color but don't expect MAC lipglass shine! The doe foot applicator is not very soft and doesn't apply that evenly but it's ok for such a neutral color and i just smush my lips together to remedy that problem. Rave rave rave...comes in many different colors and I think i've found my fun gloss for the summer!

this is a great, non sticky lippie with good staying power. i have clear with glitter, because i couldnt bring myself to try one of the peach colors. why are there about 12 shades of peach, and not much else?
after using about 1/10th of the product, the felt on the applicator wore off along the corners, and became a little uncomfortable.

These are okay but they have an annoying scent to me. They are not as shiny as my MAC Lipglasses.

This is a truly great product for a great price! The quality is comparable to high end gloss such as Chanel Glossimers. This has a lot of shimmer & shine as the Chanel, no hint of taste or scent in this, non-irritating, moisturizing and nice lasting power. The color is not as intense or as lasting as the Chanel but it is still pretty impressive. I have many of these and have only come across two bad ones. One had turned already and had a bad smell, the other was a deep lavender pink in the tube and showed up absolutely no color. I still love these and highly recommend!

Mauvestar is the most universal color I've ever used. I'm not a big "Wand" lipgloss fan, but my friend insisted that she and all her bridesmaids wear this for her wedding. Imagine my surprise when it looked great on all of us. I'm blonde, blue eyed and fair skinned, the bride is Italian and dark complected, and we had everyone else in between. just great! Not too gummy either.

These are nothing special and for the price I'd much rather spend $5-10 more and buy department store but I got this because the gloss I went to the store for was out and this was 50 percent off so I decided to try it. I have it in clearly pink which is basically a clear with a slight slight slight pink tint to it. I don't like the smell to these although they aren't too strong but they do have pretty nice staying power. The texture is nice but it doesn't have the best shine. *unless* you put them over lipstick and the shine suddenly goes up a few notches it's weird but this is the perfect gloss for over lipsticks in my opinion.

I got this and liked it for awhile. Then i tried my other stuff that i "thought" was sticky, realizing that it is nothing compared to this! They have nice colors, but little shine and a gross tacky feel.

These are more like liquid lipsticks than lipglosses, in my opinion. I like them as that though - they look great on their own or over pencil. I just never use them over lipsticks. They're not overly glossy, but they are well pigmented. I really like the scent.

I found this particular gloss too goopy and thick. I've tried several different shades, and while the colors themselves are beautiful, I don't like the consistency of the formula much. It also is not long lasting at all, and has an odd taste and odor which makes the whole thing rather unpleasent. Points for the pretty colors, though.

The colors are really great and beautiful, very pigmented and very shiny. Also, these are not too sticky, but they stay on fairly well for a lipgloss. Worth a try!
