I really like this gloss! I bought it really cheap in Summer Nude, love the packaging. Not much product goes on the wand, but its a lovely sheer glistening colour with pink and brown tints. Really pretty and would virtually go with any look, even without makeup putting it on would make a nice addition.

Its not really special or dosen't stand out as my favorite gloss, but nevertheless is a great go-to when you don't know what to wear. And great for summer.

One thing though, the gloss is quite thick. And the smell is a bit annoying, yes it smells nice but of Orange Creme you get in chocolate! Not the best smell for a lipgloss! For the price of $1 i would repurchase but not keen on getting other colors, to be fair they all look like they'd do the same job.

I have all three of these and they are for sure some of my favorite summer lipglosses and used over some of my lipsticks, they will look great even into the fall and winter. Not too sticky, but they do last quite a while for a gloss (a couple of hours).

Talk about an awesome gloss for the summer. I own Summer Nude and Golden Goddess. Goes on smoothly & lasts for a decent amount of time before re-applying. I love that this gloss looks like it'll be frosty but it's not. It has a very soft shimmer that works for all skin complexions. Completes the sun kissed look when worn with bronzer & warm copper/brown/gold tone eye shadows.

I love this gloss!! I'd never even heard of these Bronze vinyls, but I was looking at some Rimmel foundations today at Wally World when I spyed this out of the corner of my eye, in the color Summer Nude, which is actually a rosy golden bronze color. Sooo pretty, though it looked like it had to potential to be frosty overload, but I need a dose of something to remind me that nice days are ahead, so into my cart it went. I got it home, thinking it was going to be really awful disco lips, but I was happily surprised when I put it on at just how subtly beautiful it is on the lips!! There are no big glitter particles in it that will look horrible once the gloss wears away...I really, really heart this gloss. I'm soo ready to break out my lighter spring summer makeup, and this really did it's job today, lifting my spirits at the end of another long, hard, drawn-out Ohio winter. Totally worth the five bucks. I'm off to go stare at my pretty lips!!

I got lucky on this one! I stumbled upon this at Walmart here in Canada on clearance (I hope they aren't discontinuing it) at 1.00. I bought the Golden Goddess color and didn't have high expectations as it was only a dollar but, wow was I blown away. I also purchased the Vinyl Stars color Born to Bling at 1.00. I usually buy gloss that looks like it would be nice but is so sticky that I end up piling it in my makeup bin with lots of other ones I have purchased before and never used again. I would have paid full price for this one if I had to.

I was looking for Rimmel's Royal Gloss in the shade Cookie but couldn't find it and I needed a replacement so I tried the Vinyl Bronze in in Golden Goddess and I really like it. Its not quite as glittery as my Royal Gloss (which everyone always asked what I was wearing by the way) but it looks nice and I like the natural shade that I got. I will probably try something in pink in this formula and I would def repurchase Golden Goddess. But I still want my Cookie gloss! This stuff smells good but it doesn't have any flavor to it and Cookie smelled AND tasted great and I like to smell and taste as good as I look!!! :)

This is a perfect summer gloss both for the color and for the texture. I have the Summer Nude shade and it makes my lips look very lovely indeed, especially in the sunshine. I'm sure it will layer well over plums and bronzey colors in the fall and winter as well. The only drawback is it doesn't stay put very well because its not at all sticky.

I have this in the shade Sun Queen and Sunset, Sunset is a coral-orangey shade with shimmer running through, and Sun Queen is basically a brown, almost nude like with peach with no shimmer. I like both of them but love the Sun Queen so much better, I think they do lack in colour pigmentation though but right now I love sheer glosses! The durabilty of these on me don't last more than 3 hours so for that reason, it gets a lippy down :(.
I love Sun Queen though, my holy grail "nude" lip gloss!, However I was on my way to Superdrug to get a back up and it was gone,went to Boots, it was not there either, I think the Vinyl Bronze lip glosses are discontinued...

I actually quite like these glosses. I bought one in Summer Nude and it's not really a nude, but a dark pink with shimmer. On my medium pigmented lips, it's really sheer and I get a really pretty shine and shimmer with it. It really is a great summer color and I love the texture of these, which is moderately thick, but not sticky at all. These last a couple hours on me and they're really moisturizing. i don't think i would try another shade though, since I don't really like bronzey lip colors. The packaging is also pretty nice-they have a nice weight and don't look cheap. I would try other shades in the normal line :)

I just loved the all over sunny glow you get with these glosses. The bronze one makes my natural lips look kind of peachy and natural for the summer. (You don't want to overdo in the heat!)
These are also good over lipstick-like Sandy B by MAC.

I'm really surprised to see such a low rating for this product by others because I really like it. It's not sticky, gives a good shine/bronzing color and has an amazing orangey citrus scent. It works well alone and also plays well with lipsticks. The one I own is in golden goddess and I would definitely say that this is something I would repurchase. I've actually not been a big Rimmel fan in the past as I tried other products and was not happy with it but this gloss redeemed the brand for me.

I bought Bronze Vinyl Summer Nude. I like the hint of color, but wanted less sparkle. This is something I'll keep in my purse or car for a quick swipe. It's nice for summer on the go.

Product is ok, however would be better with a brush type applicator as the doe foot is pretty useless. The main problem I have with this is that it smells very strongly of Terrys chocolate orange - horrible. I'm sad I didn't smell them properly instore as I would never have bought them as the smell just makes me gag!

I bought this lipgloss in the coral shade ( I forgot the actual name). It was very sparkly, especially in the sun which I thought was nice. It lasted for more than 6 hours without having to re-apply at all. However I had to use quite a lot on my lips in order for the colour to show. However it was only £2.50 so I will buy it again.

I agree with most people on here, this is a waste of money. I didn't have really high expectations, as I am not generally a fan of Rimmel lipglosses, but this was poor even by my low standards!
There is a lot of sparkle, which I find tacky, and it is basically clear gloss. There is no pigmentation. Although, I'm wearing it right now and one thing I noticed is that I find it feels pretty nice on my lips. It isn't sticky at all. So 2 instead of 1 ha ha

I bought this lip gloss in Sun Queen, hoping it would compliment a bronzier skin tone. The colour in the tube looks perfect; not too dark, not too pink. My biggest problem with the gloss is that, although it claims to be highly pigmented, I realized the opposite. You do get a very pretty shimmer, but the pigment is just not there (unless you apply several coats). The shimmer isn't distracting by any means; it's light, but definitely apparent. This is pretty much my only complain - a huge one, but there ARE pros to the product.

Staying power: loved it. After several hours (I'd say even around six hours), the shimmer was still noticeable. Not striking, but definitely there. And keep in mind, during these six hours, I ate, drank and smoked.

The scent is quite nice, but I'm a sucker for super-summery smells anyway. It's very citrusy, more lemon than anything else. To someone who doesn't dig citrus, this may come off as smelling like dish detergent. I have no complaints however.

The applicator is your typical doe-foot, really nothing to comment on there.

I think I'd buy the gloss again. The staying power impressed me the most, I'd say.

I AM RETURNING THIS TOMORROW not at all what I expected!! The applicator itches and feels like nails on a chalk board but on your lips it's so annoying and that feeling has to be repeated OVER and OVER because it takes so many applications in order to achieve ANY color or gloss.. And then after all of that work . the lip gloss disappears after a few minutes .. DO NOT BUY THIS!

I picked up the Summer Nude yesterday thinking this might be finally what I was looking for. The color in the package looked perfect. A nude, shimmery, mauve-ish. Not too pink, not too brown. The advertisement said it was highly pigmented and mirror shine. Just what I wanted! NOPE.
It's just shimmery. That's it. No pigment. Maybe a TINY bit of color (if you look at it directly into the sun.) No mirror shine.
I gave it 3 lippies because the shimmer is actually pretty. It's not too glittery. The staying power is just okay at best. But the taste is not good and the smell is very citrus (which I don't like).
If you're looking for a pretty summer shimmer with no oohs or ahhs, this is it.

I was looking for a sparkly, gold or something that would look good with my pale skin and freckles, I came across this in Golden Goddess and it looked like a really pretty frosty gold in the tube. I slathered it on my lips and it just looked like clear lipgloss with a hint of glitter if I looked very closely. It was not at all pigmented, a big waste of money in my opinion unless I had wanted clear lipgloss then it would be O.K.

I don't mind the smell of it, allthough it is a very strong orangey citrus smell so if you don't like strong smelling lipglosses do not pick this up.
