This is my first Mega Shine by NYX. I'm in love! My lips are so pigmented so I don't really wear nude colors, plus I don't think I can pull it off. So I was at Ulta looking for the perfect pink and this was the brightest one there, so I got it.
It's a lot brighter on the lips than in the tube, for me anyway.On my lips, it comes off as a somewhat deeper pink.I really love it.
The smell is strong, very cherry-like, and I think it's awesome.
The packaging is so good too! Totally recommend.

This looks bright pink in the tube but on the lips its a neutral pink. It isn't sticky but not overly thin. It has shimmer to it and I can feel them when I rub my lips together. The scent is cherry and I actually quite like it.

OMG, I just discovered this color. I have not bought a NYX megashine gloss in a while. The colors I was seeing at my local Ulta were always either too shimmery or the colors were bland. But this color changes everything for me! I usually hate the way pinks look against my yellow skin tone, but this is warm enough to suit many skintones. It is bright, but not yucky bright. The perfect amount of pigmentation and so smooth to apply.
LaLa is pure love. If you are looking to branch out into brighter colors but are scared of lipsticks, try this color! I will be rocking this all spring and summer long. Yet, it is deep enough to wear in colder months as well.

A warm pink with pink sparkles with La La. I love the gloss and shine of this whole line of lip glosses and I even enjoy the smell and taste. Granted, the first tube of this was spoiled or previously used (ICK, just ick) and had a very strong chemical smell and wretched taste. It was SO gross. The only yuck NYX product I've bought yet, which is pretty awesome.

This is a beautiful warm pink shade, not too opaque on the lips, it just gives them a nice healthy pop of color. It does have some shimmer in it so if you don't like that you better avoid it. I just love the cherry scent of these glosses but I realize some people might not. They are definitely not sticky but that also means their staying power is not that great. I like the packaging and the bent wand as well.

lipgloss is good, but i prefer thicker gloss. The smell is annoying, like cherry flavored medicine but it fades fast. Pigmentation and color are great. Overall a good gloss but I prefer essence stay with me gloss, and prestiges wonder-full. Both really fabulous for cheap!!

Color: bright, medium pink
Pros: pigmented, creamy, not sticky
Cons: strong scent
Comments: This really gives a nice pop of color to the face without being too over-the-top, since it's not exactly bright...just a warm pink. Looks great alone or over your favorite lipstick to add some color. The only reason I wouldn't repurchase is because Revlon's Pink Pop looks similar on me and it's more readily available than this is.
Will not repurchase.

I got this in the mail today and have been wearing it almost all day. When I first opened the package, I was quite surprised at the color as it has a very HOT PINK hue to it and when I purchased it after browsing their page, I thought it has more of a watermelony-pinkish-peachy-color. And since I am an NC35, I dont wear colors that are too neon. But, once applied I realized its a wearable soft pink color.The texture is not too sticky or too runny either. And it has a lil shimmer to it. It also hydrates my lips very well. This lip gloss's staying power isnt too great nor is it too short. it is a lil in between, it stays for around 3 hours before having to reapply, it does not completely vanish but leaves your lips with a soft stain. I however hate the smell, as i felt that it smelt like those cough syrups our parents used to make us drink when we were kids. All in all, a great buy (USD 3.50)! totally recommended!
UPDATE: After using this awhile, i feel that i can feel the tiny sparkles of the lip gloss shine on my lips. Its like having super tiny grains residing on your lips-not great. And i have come to really hate the smell, to the point of puking. The cherry-cough syrup smell is overwhelming! and therefore i'm taking another lippie off!

Great value lip gloss. Not too sticky or over drippy. Almost lipstick like.
Don't be frightened by the bubble-gum Barbie pink colour. It actually delivers a very natural looking pink if used directly on lips without a lipstick undercoat. Or you can ramp the colour up or down with a lipstick undercoat.
Smells like cherries. Will definitely be buying more NYX Mega shine colours.

This is a really pretty cool bright barbie fuchsia pink. Definitely a sheer wash of color but definitely very beautiful. I got this on sale, and I like more natural shades better so I dont wear this one as much but nonetheless a very pretty color for a night out.

ARRRRGHHH!! I wanted so much to have this be such a great gloss for me. It isn't. Great--that is. At Ulta. Saw the color in the tube and it was breathtakingly pretty. Such a bright pink--but not neon. Just right. I figured with my coloring it would be a nice gloss.
Unfortunately, my lips are sooooooooooo heavily pigmented that I should just give on any color at all and just stick to ever-so-light pink and neutral shades. *Sigh*.
I'm giving this four stars though because others need to know that this gloss is really good quality. The staying power is better than my MAC lipgloss. I am a NYX fan so I'll just have to go back to Ulta to see if I can find a more neutral shade.
Honestly, if you have the right natural pigmentation in your lips for this shade--try it..It is a beautiful shade.

OK...this smells and tastes like cherry Kool Aid...awesome! It is such a pretty shade of pink. By itself, it is a nice pop of color but not too opaque. It transforms color based on the lipstick you wear underneath. Perfect for wearing over a good stain. The staying power is pretty good and you can not beat the price. Animal cruelty free. Such a great buy.

I really like this gloss! I have been looking for a cute "summery" pink gloss...not too crazy, but not dull. After reading reviews, I decided to go to Ulta and pick up La La.
When I got there I began to have second thoughts...in the tube it is REALLY bright pink. NYX products were BOGO so I figured what the heck. To my surprise it is a really pretty pink...I'm not sure how to explain it...it's just a really nice color and gives me a nice "glow" like many other reviews have mentioned. It also has a fruity scent that is nice as well.
Don't be scared by the tube color - I recommend this gloss!
For reference I am NC25.

I absolutely LOVE this lipgloss! It goes on smooth and it doesn't leave a sticky feel. It's very pigmented and i can wear it alone without any lipstick or lipliner. Some people might not like the smell, it smells like cherry medicine or a cherry tootsie roll pop (something cherry), but I honestly like the smell. Overall, I would 100% buy and recommend this product to anyone and everyone!

Great color! I love that this gloss has the right amount of pigmentation. It shows up, yet it's not over the top. I'd say it's still somewhat sheer, but it does give you a nice wash of color. It's a pretty bubblegum pink with a hint of peach in it. It even smells like bubblegum to me. I like that is goes on really smooth and isn't sticky. The packaging is really cute too! Great for pink lipgloss lovers like me! I'd definitely repurchase. I bought a set of 6 NYX glosses on eBay for a great combined price and love all of the colors so far.

In the tube this looks like a nice bubble gum pink color, but it doesn't show on my (very) pigmented lips at all. Other than that, it's moisturising and it isn't sticky. I think it's the least pigmented of the NYX glosses that I have.

Gorgeous bright pink.
This was the first NYX gloss I've ever opened in my life! I got this from MUG's store.
I wasn't even looking at the colors well, and I didn't expect it to be this pink at all.
However, on my lips, it's absolutely a beautiful cherry pink on its own.
I like to wear it on its own, or with GOSH's darling underneath for a baby pink that's absolutely perfect.
Great for it's price, great consistency.
However, my only pet peeve is that the wand doesn't pick up lots of product per swipe due to the stopper and/or bent wand.
For this price, it's worth it.
(Price is rather expensive in Canada, the stores hike it up to about $8?)

Love how pigmented this l/g is for only $5! I agree, this color does not come on like a bubblegum color at all. Its more subtle and enhances your natural lip color. Nothing tacky.
