Lip Gloss -Avon - Glazewear Intense in Honey
Maaya 12/11/2004 10:02:00 PM
Glazewear in Honey shows up as a light brown with a hint of orange on my lips. Very similar to the color shown in the tube with decent pigmentation. The texture is as the other Glazewears, not thick or sticky but not thin and runny either. It is comfortable and moisturizing and has a cake batter scent to it although for some strange reason it doesn't appeal to me at all :/ Overall I'm pleased with my purchase as I bought this when it was on sale for $3.99. However, I will not repurchase this particular shade because, due to my large stash of glosses, I'm on the lookout for unique shades and this one is quite common. Still a nice buy though :)

Lip Gloss -Jane - Attitubes!- Cheerful
Maaya 11/25/2004 2:56:00 PM
Attitubes is a sponge-on lip gloss in a thin slender tube. It has no scent or flavor. Cheerful is a watermelon pink with shimmer. When applied, it leaves some color and glass like shine. I really love how it looks, however I didn't give it a 5 because it is very thick. It's not sticky, but your always reminded that its there because of how thick it is. This is a very small con and I will still repurchase. FFF/LLL, brown hair & eyes

Lip Treatments -Clinique - Superbalm Raspberry Tint
Maaya 11/25/2004 1:59:00 PM
I am SO happy I purchased this. It really is the best lip treatment I have ever used. Superbalm comes packaged in a small squeeze tube w/ a slanted tip applicator. It's $11.50, which I think is a very good price for such an excellent product. Raspberry Tint shows up on my lips the exact same color as it is in the tube, a very beautiful and natural pink that goes with everything. The texture is amazing, thick but not sticky and very very moisturizing and comfortable. The staying power is excellent as well. It lasts hours and even after the gloss has worn off your lips still feel moisturized. I will repurchase. FFF/LLL, brown hair & eyes.

Lip Gloss -Bonne Bell - Smackers Splash 'n Shine- Pink Nilla Mint
Maaya 10/16/2004 6:19:00 PM
I'm so happy I found this holiday set :) This came with a Liquid Smackers in Pink Nilla Mint, which I'm sure I'll love since it's the same scent as the Splash 'n Shine only thicker and shinier. The scent of this lip balm/gloss is PERFECT--just like vanilla and mint. It has no taste. In the tube it is a light pink stick but on it's clear. Another thing that I didn't expect but love is the cooling sensation it leaves after application. Reminds me a lot of the holidays, and I highly recommend the set to everyone. Definite repurchase :)

Lip Gloss -Estee Lauder - Pure Color Gloss- Star Pink
Maaya 10/10/2004 1:12:00 AM
I received this as a GWP in a small slant-tip tube. In the tube it looks baby pink and on my lips it comes out a very sparkly clear. I've been looking for this type of look for a while so I'm sooo happy I actually found this--which I would've never bought since I'm not a big fan of light light pinks. However, this is the perfect sparkly clear gloss. The texture is perfect and it lasts a decent amount of time without feeling gritty. I will definitely repurchase if I ever come around to it ;)

Lip Gloss -Bonne Bell - Lip Smacker- Homemade Strawberry Ice Cream
Maaya 10/10/2004 1:07:00 AM
This lip smacker is part of the Holiday 2004 set--also including Hand-dipped Sugar Plum and Sugar Spice Cookie. I've only been able to try this one though. The texture is smooth and creamy like all lip smackers and has good moisturization. The color in the tube is a light pink and on my lips it just seems to make them look a little pinker and smooth. This lip smacker smells like sweet creamy strawberry. Glad I found the set :)

Lip Gloss -New York Color - Kiss Gloss - Strawberry Banana
Maaya 9/16/2004 5:27:00 PM
Kiss Gloss in Strawberry Banana appears to be salmon pink in the tube. It applies to my lips as MLBB, leaving color and beautiful shine. The texture is thick and slightly sticky however bearable and the scent is true to it's name. It has good staying power as well. Kiss Gloss is packaged in a small tube w/ a slanted tip applicator. And it's really cheap @ $2.99.

Lip Gloss -Almay - Whipped Gloss- Sheer Raspberry
Maaya 9/11/2004 1:46:00 PM
I purchased this shade because of the pretty color in the tube...which is how it is when applied to the lips. A very fresh watermelon pink w/ matching glitter. I really like the color, though it isn't very 'unique'. Which is why I gave this product a 3. I don't really care for the texture of these glosses anymore, they're not thick or thin, rather in b/w which I like. However, the glitter is a bit gritty. And I agree w/ other reviewers, for some reason the scent for this shade seems more distracting than others I've tried. Not mint, just something really nasty that lingers for a while. So, because I could purchase this same color in many other companies w/ better textures and scents, I will not be repurchasing. The tube is the same as other Almay Whipped Glosses--a regular l/g tube h/e w/ a brush applicator rather than a sponge. FFF/LLL, brown hair & eyes.

Lip Gloss -Lancome - Juicy Tubes in Sun Bronze
Maaya 9/10/2004 3:41:00 PM
I got this color as a GWP. In the tube, Sun Bronze appears as a dark brown gloss. However, it applies sheerer--yet still highly pigmented. On my lightly pigmented lips this applied as a bronzed red w/ golen shimmer...warm so it worked well w/ my complexion. I only applied a very small amount to get this dark color, & the shine was still very nice and wet. A very unique color, though I'm glad I don't have a full tube because I wouldn't be able to finish it. I prefer lighter colors, but this is still beautiful. And it smells like strawberry jam...mmmm. I won't repurchase but still highly recommend :)

Lip Gloss -Maybelline - Wet Shine Diamonds Liquid - Loud & Clear Lilac
Maaya 9/10/2004 12:53:00 AM
I purchased this with Out Loud Orange...actually I was only going to purchase this color, since I thought that the other would be too bright. But it turns out OLO fit my coloring better than L&CL. This color applied just as it looked in the tube--a bright fuschia/pink. It looked nice but just doesn't suit my coloring. Would probably work better for those with coolor toned skin. The consistancy isn't really thin, but not thick either. The glitter in this shade is a little gritty. There is no scent/taste. This gloss also dries my lips. I would not repurchase this particular shade. FFF/LLL, light brown hair & eyes.

Lip Gloss -Neutrogena - Moistureshine Lipgloss in Chic
Maaya 9/5/2004 11:06:00 PM
WOW!!!! I love this color :) In the tube Chic seems to be a caramel color. When applied, it becomes a beautiful & natural pink/brown w/ a very glossy finish. I really love the end results...and definetely plan on repurchasing this color. The texture is the same as other Moistureshine glosses--thick and somewhat sticky but not tacky, and very smooth. This gloss is also moisturizing as the name implies and has a faint berry scent that I find pleasent. It does leak a little bit but I avoid that by cleaning the top of the tube after every use :)

Lip Gloss -Cover Girl - WetSlicks lipgloss - Fire Fly
Maaya 9/4/2004 10:39:00 PM
Um this is another color I will never ever be repurchasing. I bought this before reading reviews...hoping to have found a sheer red gloss that would actually work for my complexion. But I will have to continue my journey because red and my coloring just don't seem to agree :) When applied, Fire Fly became a true deep red on my lightly pigmented lips. IDK...maybe the reason it didn't work for me was because I used it over that horrid Super Lustrous l/s in Teak Rose? Whatever it was though, it just didn't look right. It looked as though I was playing w/ m/u when I finished applying it. The consistancy thin & a sweet cake batter scent, like all Wetslicks. But this color...I will never be repurchasing it.

Lipstick -Revlon - Super Lustrous Lipstick- Teak Rose
Maaya 9/4/2004 10:32:00 PM
OMG. I'm so glad I'm the first person to review this here...because I must warn: some will hate this color, like me for instance. Teak Rose, when applied, became a bright unflattering pink. Definetely not for my complexion. The texture of this lip stick was a bit drying. I wouldn't know the staying power because I wiped it off too fast :) I will never be repurchasing this color again. Never.

Lips -Bonne Bell - Clic-It
Maaya 9/4/2004 10:16:00 PM
I purchased this product in Glam, clear w/ gold and red glitter that is supposed to smell like Sugar. I was a bit disappointed w/ this product. The Clic-It pen dispenses a good amount of product, so the packaging is fine. And the soft tip applicator applies the gloss evenly. The gloss smells like marshmallows to me...what I was disappointed w/ was the look of the product. Applied, it is clear w/ a little bit of glitter. The texture and staying power (which is good for a gloss) make up for this however. The texture of this gloss is very comfortable, thick but far from being sticky. And the shine is nice too. Glam is similar to my Lip D'Votion in Sugar Kiss, however better because it is thicker, less sticky, and not as drying (though Clic-It too is drying). I like this product...but I won't be repurchasing. UPDATE: hahaha guess i did repurchase...Anyways, I've been using glam a lot since it smells really good and leaves subtle shine. It also conditions my lips somewhat and is very creamy. So recently I purchased one of the clic-it lip colors, blush, which is supposed to smell like vanilla sugar but smells slightly different than glam. It looks light pink, like a darker version of the Vanilla Swirl Lip Lites. It goes on, however, very similar to the Vanilla Swirl Lip Lites...maybe a little darker. I think it is quite flattering and it isn't drying either, though glam seems creamier. That may be because glam is gloss and blush slightly resembles gloss. Since I'm not a fan of matte color, I put my Daiquiri JT on top for gloss. When that's done, it pretty much looks like Vanilla Swirl on me...so I still won't be repurchasing since I can get a cheaper and bigger alternative :P but its nice to try.

Lip Gloss -Almay - Pink Cloud
Maaya 9/3/2004 9:20:00 PM
Pink Cloud is a light cotton candy pink in the tube, but when applied it goes on much sheerer. On my lightly pigmented lips Pink Cloud shows up clear with a hint of the pink shown in the tube. The consistancy is the same as all of the Whipped Glosses, thick but light and not sticky. This gloss has a minty smell as well and the particular shade Pink Cloud seems to leave a slight cooling effect on my lips after application. Staying power is decent for a gloss, 1-1 1/2 hrs of wear. I will not repurchase. $6-$7. FFF/LLL, brown hair & eyes.
