Favorite gloss
-05.03.13
Quick Take: non-sticky
I recently bought this in ignite and loved it so much that I returned and purchased four more colors: truth, verse, imagine, and icon (returning the liquid lipstick version of icon because I think the gloss color is deeper). The colors are beautiful (the nudes/pastels are very versatile for work), and the gloss is incredibly comfortable -- no sticking, balling, drying. It's a gloss, so it's not viciously long-lasting, but I wear a nude pencil underneath and reapply after meals, so it doesn't bother me.

Love the product, but not crazy about the applicator. A lovely nude color for summer.

It was good once.
-04.28.13
Quick Take: non-sticky
I LOVED the color nectar. I've bought a few tubes. But when they changed the packaging awhile back, they also changed the formula. When I apply it, there is so little color. There isn't any point in wearing it. I'm not buying it anymore.

Not a fan

The color was pretty, but this was much too thick of a formula for me. I ended up returning it.

Not worth the price

Quick Take: non-sticky, flavored
I love "lush" lipgloss, it is beautiful, but it dried my lip out and end up peeling my lip skin off. For this price, hourglass could do better! Return.....

looove it
-03.29.13
I received this in the " give me some lip " kit last year. It appeared too light. The kit had some hit and misses. I finally decided to try this last week. I have it in Child. OMG it is gorgeous. I am tan very tan and this gives me the most beautiful nude lips ever. I don't wear lipstick just this gloss. I only wish it wasn't so expensive. However I have never had a gloss or lipstick that made my lips look so pretty so I will repurchase.

Love this!
-03.29.13
I am a redhead, with fair skin and blue eyes. I purchased this in the Icon color, with some hesitation. It looked amazing! Since it is a darker red, be sure to use lip buff and moisturize before applying. A bit of lip liner helps too. I wish it was a tad longer wearing, but that does not detract from it overall. Love it!

Overpriced
-03.26.13
I think that it is a nice gloss, it has a nice consistency, and it stays on fairly well. The colors were not as pigmented as I thought that they would be, and I just don't think that there is anything that stands out with these glosses to warrant the price of 28.00. There are many other glosses that I am more impressed with that cost much less.

Amazing! One of my favorites!
-03.23.13
Quick Take: non-sticky, moisturizing
I got this as a sample in the color Child, and I expected some gross, sticky gloopy lip gloss that would almost keep my lips together like glue. But it was so not! It's non-sticky, and a really nice nude color! I am pretty tan, and this is a beautiful color that seems to work alongside my natural lip tint to create a perfect slight nude-y color when worn by itself. I put it on top of my really bold lipsticks and stains when I want them to be slightly toned down.
All in all, really nice!

Have this in Siren
-03.08.13
Love the color, it's an orange red with gold shimmer.
It WILL come off so when I wear it I am careful to not eat/drink if I can help it and it looks great.
I do use a lip primer underneath to keep it in place but I dont use a lip liner with this; I dont think I need to.
I think it really compliments dark hair/eyes and med skin tones.

Light Refracting & Easy on the Lips
-03.04.13
Quick Take: shine with softness
Impressed with the sheer sheen and refracted colors were there. Very easy on the lips and felt good on. Not as long lasting as some but the natural ingredients were worth it.

Quick Take: moisturizing
I absolutely love this gloss. It's long lasting, and it feels great on my lips. This was my second color, the other was Ignite, and I have been very happy with both of them. I will be purchasing more colors.

Best lipgloss out of many
-03.02.13
Quick Take: non-sticky, moisturizing
I have tried many, many lip glosses. This one in my opinion is the best. Its not heavy, not sticky, smell is very soft and not gross. The feel of it on your lips is also very soft. I can apply this over and over for added color and it never feels heavy or gross. love it.

Gorgeous
-03.01.13
Quick Take: non-sticky, moisturizing
I purchased Nectar on a whim the other day, after seeing a piece in a magazine on "pink grapefruit" colors. I think this color was mentioned. I am very pleased! It is not sticky, the color is not too bright or faint, and it lasts a long time! It does feather a bit, but it's light enough that it doesn't show that much. It has a pleasing sweet scent to it, too. I think I am going to get it in Siren and maybe another color next, when I have some money to spend. It also makes the lines on my lips disappear and my lips appear fuller. I am thrilled with it!

It's ok
-01.21.13
Quick Take: sticky, difficult to apply, beautiful colors
This is an alright lip gloss. The color is pretty, but I'm not a fan of the wand, or the bottle, or the texture. It's not horrible at all, but there's a lot that could be improved upon. Like the wand makes it kind of difficult to apply, and the tube's opening is very small which removes a lot of the product from the wand so you have to dip it back in 2 or 3 times just to get a thin coat on (and I wear very little makeup, so when I say a thin coat, I mean a thin coat). Also, it's fairly sticky. It's not sticky enough to really bother me, I'm going to continue using the product, but I would definitely reach for another product like the Sephora Glossy Gloss (which is only $10).

The best gloss ever!
-01.21.13
This gloss shines, hydrates and actually helps lipstick stay put and avoid feathering. It's well worth the expense!

Quick Take: non-sticky
I was shown this product in the store while looking for a lip gloss that is not sticky. I have found clear glosses that aren't sticky, but when it comes to color I have been unsuccessful until now! The price is a little high for me, but I love the product! I bought it in the Primal color, it is a nice pinkish red, very shiny, and not at all sticky!
