Lola Lip Indulgence Lip GlossA grown-up Lip Smacker. These glosses are filled with papaya butter, mango and other fruits that moisturize and add a strong sweet scent. The slightly stiff applicator brush causes more defined coverage than sponge tips on competitors like Benefit's Her Glossiness, so product sticks around without feeling sticky. The seven ...More $16.00See more Lola products |

LORAC Mocktail Lip GlossNot to kill your buzz, but this delish-smelling gloss doesn't taste like a tropical drink -- it has no taste at all. Not a reason to dismiss it; after all, it's still super glossy, slightly shimmery and not sticky. And the chubby brush-tube is squeezable, giving you total control of the amount of gloss you dispense. Just do...More $18.00See more LORAC products |

Shu Uemura Gloss UnlimitedWith 15 shades of Shu Uemura Gloss Unlimited, there's something for everyone. And since the formula coats lips and adds moisture, high shine and shimmer without making lips look tacky, it's even more lovable. Some might be turned off by the high price and the awkward feeling of the oddly solid wand applicator. Others may di...More |

Victoria's Secret Beauty Rush Lip GlossLike Lancôme Juicy Tubes? Then you'll love this look-alike (but cheaper) gloss. Those put off by fruit flavor should stay away. Me? I like flavor, and the pinky red Juiced Berry tastes like a raspberry Jolly Rancher. All 19 shades are extremely sheer, with just a touch of color and sparkle -- not chunky glitter, d...More |

Burt's Bees Lip GlossAs a "kissable," shiny lip balm, I love it. But as a gloss? I expect a lot more shine. Because it's in a tiny, screw-top jar, the colorless (bees)wax must be applied by finger, but ingredients like cocoa butter make leftovers a great cuticle conditioner. The company's claim that the product is 96.64 percent natura...More |

Stila Lip GlazeGlaze like the frosting that drips from a Krispy Kreme? That's what comes to mind as this gloss oozes out of the click brush pen. Though it really stays on, the wear is goopy. Apply too thickly and the gloss creeps outside your lip line. Still, the 27 colors are perfection and deliver lacquer shine. And if it's nominated fo...More $20.00See more Stila products |

Urban Decay XXX Shine GlossIs that name "extra, extra, extra shiny" or, um, porn star-y? Both exist in the vast 12-shade menu. We're gaga over its insanely long wear, beating Stila and Smashbox in our trials, but we subtracted points for its goop-prone round tip, the less-than-sturdy tube, and sticky texture. (My husband wipes his cheek and...More |

Estee Lauder High GlossWith the launch of this tube gloss, Estée Lauder took a step out of the "your mom's brand" territory into more fashionista-friendly terrain. It's non-sticky, delightfully glossy and comes in 15 classic shades. (Tip: Blush is a nice neutral.) Although it's one step in the fashionista evolution, they have...More |

CARGO Lip Gloss DuoEach tin carries two finger-applicable glosses that can be worn separately or blended if you're feeling crazy. Available in an ample 23 shades, each duo delivers sheer color that's light enough not to raise eyebrows around the office. But it does suffer from that age-old gloss conundrum: It leaves no sticky residue (hooray)...More $20.00See more CARGO products |

Bourjois Fresh Kiss Minty Lip Gloss"Ultra sheer, shiny lips" is a close-to-perfect description of this long-lasting glossy import. The smooth-gliding brush takes a single coat to keep lips -- and anything it touches -- shiny (even after a drink or two). The menthol tingles briefly after application (although nothing like a lip plumper) and the lig...More |
