Review 1 for Candy Cane Lip Shine
Smells Great!
-07.15.12
Quick Take: flavored, high gloss
I'm a big fan of the brand as well as the lip glosses. They last forever, but tend to be a little sticky. My favorite blackberry is now d/c'd. Love them!

Review 2 for Candy Cane Lip Shine
Love this gloss!
-06.20.12
Quick Take: non-sticky, moisturizing, flavored
I've been looking for a clear lip shine that is not too sticky and this is the one! I also think the peppermint lip flavor really does help you smile more and makes your mouth feel fresh, like you just brushed your teeth every time you open your mouth.

Review 3 for Candy Cane Lip Shine
Love it
-06.18.12
Quick Take: moisturizing, flavored
This tastes amazing. Very minty, very moisturizing. I have many many chapsticks and glosses, and this, surprisingly, is the one that moisturizes the most. After wearing it for a few hours, my lips feel like new! Great price, great product. It was a bit sticky and thick though, but so far I have not encountered a gloss that was not sticky. Also, after you wear it for a while you can't taste the peppermint and the gloss itself tastes a bit like burnt plastic.

Review 4 for Candy Cane Lip Shine
Great Minty Flavor!
-05.30.12
Quick Take: non-sticky, moisturizing, flavored, great texture, high shine
This gloss is great, its minty, non-sticky, and feels great on your lips. It also has a very high shine to it. Its pretty thick also, but not overly thick. I gave this one 4 stars because its just an average gloss, it has no color or sparkle, but it would be great for putting over a lipstick!

Review 5 for Candy Cane Lip Shine
Nothing special
-05.12.12
Quick Take: non-sticky, moisturizing, flavored
I really like Philosophy lipglosses. The texture and smell are always nice. This one, however, is nothing special. Just a clear gloss that smells like peppermint.

Moisturizing

Quick Take: glossy
This lip shine is an overall excellent product. It looks great, tastes good, and is very kissable. It has an ok price, but I will definitely buy it again. Perfect for the winter season!

Review 8 for Candy Cane Lip Shine
Awesome shine!
-02.22.12
Quick Take: glossy, non-waxy
I'm not usually one to wear high gloss lip shine, but the name Candy Cane intrigued me to try it out. I love the awesome shine it gives, and the taste was nice and minty. However, I would've liked it much more if it wasn't so sticky once applied.

Review 11 for Candy Cane Lip Shine
GREAT ALONE OR OVER OTHER LIP PRODUCTS
-01.13.12
Quick Take: non-sticky, glossy, non-waxy, kissable
I received a Philosophy Candy Cane Lip Shine when I was gifted with Philosophy's Candy Cane Trio. The gloss is definitely kissable and moisturizing. It has a nice smooth finish which fills in lip lines. It's excellent on its own, and works well over other lip products, too. It's not overly heavy, nor is it overly sticky, so my long hair doesn't get stuck in it. I recommend the gloss on its own, and I also recommend the Trio, if you're interested in the gloss, along with body lotion and bath gel.

Review 13 for Candy Cane Lip Shine
Great minty gloss!
-12.27.11
Quick Take: non-sticky, glossy, non-waxy, hydrating, tasty
Usually I don't go out of my way to try mint-flavored glosses--not that I don't like them, they just don't really wow me. This showed up in my stocking Christmas morning and I decided to give it a shot. It is, hands down, one of the best lip glosses I have ever tried. Glossy, non-sticky, and this flavor rocks. It is minty, but a sweet candied sort of minty--it really does taste just like the real red-and-white striped stick. Also, this is clear, so it works on its own or over a solid color. Can't wait to try other Philosophy glosses!

Love it!
-12.20.11
Quick Take: non-sticky, glossy, smells amazing
I absolutely love this lip gloss! It smells exactly like a candy cane, maybe even better and perfect for holiday time. It makes your lips feel tingly and moisturized! Not really sticky at all. Makes a nice gift to just say happy holidays. Go buy it!

Review 16 for Candy Cane Lip Shine
sticky
-12.18.11
Quick Take: glossy
I love the tingly feeling from this gloss. It is terribly sticky and heavy, though. I like it, but I can't even wear it outside. The glossiness lasts a long time if you haven't been driven mad by the heavy wax on your lips by then.

Sweet, minty surprise
-12.16.11
Quick Take: glossy
I really liked this lip gloss. It has a wonderful peppermint flavor and a beautiful, sparkly shine. The key is to not put too much on. After figuring out the correct amount, it became my go to lip gloss.

Review 20 for Candy Cane Lip Shine
high gloss finish!
-12.11.11
Quick Take: glossy, non-waxy, fresh, moisturizing
I love that you don't need much of this gloss at all to have that extra shine to your lipstick or lips with nothing else on them. The flavor is perfect too. Not too minty but just fresh enough (and perfect for those mistletoe moments). My lips are soft, fresh and tastey ;)
