If you don't mind the aluminum tubes, these have a nice consistency. I really like the raisin & crystal coral shades. These are pretty sheer so they look best over lipsticks.

I have this gloss in Luminous Lilac (glittery lavender), Honey Halo (shimmery pinky beige), Bronze Radience (glittery bronze), and Wine Shine. I like all of the colors except the wine - it turns fuschia on me. My favorite is the Honey Halo. They have a slight scent but nothing offensive. My only rant is the packaging, but since they are copies of Stila's lipglosses I can understand their reasoning. I would buy more colors but I recommend unrolling the bottom of the tube to avoid leaking.

This product is similar to the Stila Lip Shine tubes. Same general grumble with the packaging (easily dented, get too much squeezing out--but not nearly as bad as the Stila counterpart). The gloss really does give your lips a glassy shine, but it is more of a sheer wash than a pigmented color. It has average to short staying power. But for a drugstore buy, at $6 a pop, it's MUCH cheaper (by half!) than the Stila version. and it comes in a great array of colors. I fell in love with the Bronze Shimmer color, it's beautiful over a variety of lipsticks. Go try this out if you haven't yet. There's bound to be a color you love.

I bought this in Luminous Lilac (a pearly lavendar-pink, very pretty color) and I love the gloss formula--very smooth, great color pigment, lasts a decent amount of time (long-lasting over a nude lipliner). But, the packaging is WORSE than my Stila Rose Shine--I didn't think anything could be WORSE than the $#*(#$& Stila tube!!!

So, to AVOID the problem, I've squirted the L'oreal gloss into an empty well of my Trish lip gloss palette (as I do with the Stila gloss) and it does NOT dry out or leak. I DO plan to purchase this gloss in other colors, because the price and formula is worth it!

I got this in Pink Shimmer, which is a high-shine version of my fave UD lip gunk color, Hotpants. However, the container leaks like a mother! Seriously, as soon as you take off the lid, the product comes RUSHING out, you have to put it up to your lips to catch the stuff before it runs everywhere. Probably 25% of what comes out is wasted from this. Other than the packaging, the product is nice. Staying power isn't fabu, but what do you expect from a gloss, really.

I love, love, LOVE this gloss! The color (Wine Shine) is the truest wine I've found thus far. The texture is smooth and very moisturizing, with a slight berry taste and scent. This is a wonderful lower price alternative to the Stila Lip Shines. However, the packaging must go!!! Once you squeeze the tube, the product continues to ooze out which is very wasteful. I would give it 5 lippies if not for the packaging.

The colors are pretty. I got pink shimmer which is like UD's SWF without the glitter. The texture is nice and smooth, and the staying power isn't that great. Mine wore off after about 2 hours. The package leaks like a mother though. As soon as you open it, it spills out. I'll buy these again because I like the colors and I have a $2 off coupon. Maybe. They originally sell for $6 and some change. Buy this product, but be careful not to cause leaks.

They have some really great colors for these. I have Honey halo, Glimmering Lilac, Glistening Pink, Pink Shimmer, Irridescent Pink, and Dazzling Rose (?). They have a nice texture and great look. I alos like the smell. The only drawbacks are the packaging that seems to ooze occasionally and the staying power isnt great.
