Lip Gloss -NYX - Golden Prune
celticat 12/2/2010 7:56:00 AM
Golden Prune is a deep mauve plum with golden sheen, on the lips it looks softer and lighter, like berry. I usually don't wear plums, but this one is very good! It's not too harsh or too cold, and I love it! To my opinion NYX Round Lip Glosses are just as good as Mega Shine Lip Glosses. They are cheaper (mine were $1.50 each with international shipping), but you get less product too. Round glosses are somewhat less pigmented than Mega Shine, but many of the colors are unique and very beautiful. Of 10 glosses I've got 3 have new scent, very similar to the Mega Shine. I believe this is their new formula. The rest glosses have lemon-citrus smell, not unpleasant to me, but I think the new one is much better.

Lip Gloss -NYX - Round Lipgloss Frosted Red
celticat 12/2/2010 7:48:00 AM
Frosted Red is a beautiful coral red with fine multicolored glitter. This is one of my favorite Round Glosses. It looks great without a lipstick; it's sheer, but doesn't disappear on the lips. Very flattering color! To my opinion NYX Round Lip Glosses are just as good as Mega Shine Lip Glosses. They are cheaper (mine were $1.50 each with international shipping), but you get less product too. Round glosses are somewhat less pigmented than Mega Shine, but many of the colors are unique and very beautiful. Of 10 glosses I've got 3 have new scent, very similar to the Mega Shine.

Lip Gloss -NYX - Amethyst (09) lip gloss
celticat 12/2/2010 7:39:00 AM
The name Amethyst is misleading indeed, but actually the color is very nice, it reminds me of Mega Shine in Copper Penny. This one is pinky mauve too, and it has a beautiful golden sheen. It's not sheer and can go without a lipstick. Love it! To my opinion NYX Round Lip Glosses are just as good as Mega Shine Lip Glosses. They are cheaper (mine were $1.50 each with international shipping), but you get less product too.

Lip Gloss -NYX - Brown Topaz
celticat 12/2/2010 7:30:00 AM
Brown Topaz is one of the best colors I've got in Round Glosses. It's copper or dark gold with beautiful pink shine. Such a lovely color, and not too sheer to wear it alone. It looks metallic with cold sheen, amazing! To my opinion NYX Round Lip Glosses are just as good as Mega Shine Lip Glosses. They are cheaper (mine were $1.50 each with international shipping), but you get less product too. Round glosses are somewhat less pigmented than Mega Shine, but many of the colors are unique and very beautiful. Of 10 glosses I've got 3 have new scent, very similar to the Mega Shine.

Lip Gloss -NYX - Round Lip Gloss - Golden Red
celticat 12/2/2010 7:23:00 AM
The color of this gloss disappointed me badly. It looks very nice soft golden red in the packaging, but on swatches and on the lips it is the brightest fucshia with almost invisible golden glitter. Not for me, but if you love fucshia - give it a try. To my opinion NYX Round Lip Glosses are just as good as Mega Shine Lip Glosses. They are cheaper (mine were $1.50 each with international shipping), but you get less product too. Round glosses are somewhat less pigmented than Mega Shine, but many of the colors are unique and very beautiful. Of 10 glosses I've got 3 have new scent, very similar to the Mega Shine.

Lip Gloss -NYX - Round Lipgloss- Soap Opera Queen
celticat 12/2/2010 7:14:00 AM
This is very bright pink with TONS of glitter, but somehow it looks not bad on me. The color is sheer, so this one obviously needs something under it - a lipstick or a liner. This gloss is too bold and shiny for my everyday look, but it's good for party or something like that. To my opinion NYX Round Lip Glosses are just as good as Mega Shine Lip Glosses. They are cheaper (mine were $1.50 each with international shipping), but you get less product too. Round glosses are somewhat less pigmented than Mega Shine, but many of the colors are unique and very beautiful. Of 10 glosses I've got 3 have new scent, very similar to the Mega Shine.

Lip Gloss -NYX - Round Lip Gloss - Peach
celticat 12/2/2010 7:03:00 AM
Peach is one of my favorite Round glosses. It's very warm shiny peachy coral with multicolored glitter. This color is rather sheer and doesn't show much on the lips, but I find it extremely useful for layering. It makes pink and nude lipsticks look warmer, more juicy. I will buy it again for sure! To my opinion NYX Round Lip Glosses are just as good as Mega Shine Lip Glosses. They are cheaper (mine were $1.50 each with international shipping), but you get less product too.

Lip Gloss -NYX - Round Lip Gloss - Strawberry
celticat 12/2/2010 6:56:00 AM
Strawberry is a lovely peachy-pink color, very shiny, with lots of multicolored glitter. It doesn't show on the lips very well, because it's sheer, but makes lips look shiny and wet. It goes great together with almost any lipstick. To my opinion NYX Round Lip Glosses are just as good as Mega Shine Lip Glosses. They are cheaper (mine were $1.50 each with international shipping), but you get less product too. Round glosses are somewhat less pigmented than Mega Shine, but many of the colors are unique and very beautiful. Of 10 glosses I've got 3 have new scent, very similar to the Mega Shine.

Lip Gloss -NYX - 28 Whipped
celticat 12/2/2010 6:46:00 AM
This is great for nude lips. The color is beautiful peach-nude, very pale, but not sheer. It's good by itself and together with any pale lipstick too. To my opinion NYX Round Lip Glosses are just as good as Mega Shine Lip Glosses. They are cheaper (mine were $1.50 each with international shipping), but you get less product too.

Lip Gloss -NYX - Sorbet Round Lip Gloss
celticat 12/2/2010 6:39:00 AM
Sorbet is a pinkier cousin of Whipped with fine golden glitter. It's not opaque, but the color shows very well on the lips. I think it's nice, but not something to die for.

Lip Gloss -NYX - Mega shine- Copper Penny
celticat 11/30/2010 5:58:00 AM
It's mauve, it's pink, it has copper shine, and it's marvelous! One of the best of all Mega Shine glosses I've got. The color payoff is great, almost like a lipstick. And the color is lovely indeed!

Lip Gloss -NYX - Mega Shine Lip Gloss - 137-a Perfect Red
celticat 11/30/2010 5:50:00 AM
This is really a Perfect Red - if you're brave enough! This gloss is completely opaque, without any glitter, and to me it's finish is more like vinyl. The color is a true red with a hint of coral, very beautiful and vibrant. I swear, it's bolder and louder than most of red lipsticks you've seen! Amazing! I love it, and it looks PERFECT on my fair complexion. This is another wonderful red for PPP ladies, together with YSL Rouge Volupte #16. I have both, and I cannot tell which one is better, honestly! And this lip gloss is only $3, ten times less than famous #16!!! If you love bright red lips like I do, try this one!

Lip Gloss -NYX - Mega gloss- Sunrise
celticat 11/30/2010 5:28:00 AM
I have ten Mega Shine Glosses, and, unfortunately, this is the only color I don't like. The color itself is beautiful, but it's kind of tricky. In the glass packaging it looks rather warm, with orange or copper undertone and golden shine. But on my hand and on my lips (even on the applicator!) it's a cold pinky red, almost fuchsia. And it's very, very bright. So sorry, but I cannot wear this color at all! You can see it swatched on my hand, looks very true.

Lip Gloss -NYX - Mega Shine Lip Gloss - 132 Oro
celticat 11/30/2010 5:14:00 AM
This color is FANTASTIC, and I'm very much surprised that I'm the first reviewer. Oro is very intensive warm rosy gold, almost opaque, extremely buildable. It's very shiny, with tiny golden particles - I can't even call them "glitter". It's not a plain and simple gold because of it's rosy undertone. Oro looks gorgeous on bare lips, adds volume and beautiful golden shine. It also looks very good together with red, rosy or other warm lipstick. No doubt - one of the best golds I've seen in my life! And one of the best Mega Shine glosses too!

Lip Gloss -NYX - Mega gloss- Sponge Cake
celticat 11/30/2010 4:52:00 AM
Sponge Cake is bright rosy-brown with golden glitter. It's a beautiful color, very flattering, but not easy to describe. I swatched it on my hand with other Mega Shine Glosses, and the color looks true, maybe a little lighter than in reality. One of my favorites in this range.
