  I'll pass

January 10, 2008, 2:36 pm This stuff is pretty good and I bought it before they changed the names in Candied Cider. I did love the minty peppermint feeling and scent to it. To top it off, it wasn't really sticky and felt pretty smooth. The applicator is more like a brush than a sponge so I really loved that. But after opening and closing it so much it started to get gritty and itchy in less than 3 weeks. Unfortnately, I had to quit using it due to that. However, if they find a way to fix the formula, I'll happily buy it again. January 10, 2008, 2:36 pm

  Nice colors, hate the smell

  by jennbee (79 reviews)

  

  I might have an older formulation of this gloss, apparently, because mine has a strange, almost sickening minty smell to it that I really can't stand. The color payoff is ok, not great; the blackberry shade I got looked like it would be much darker than it was. It did look quite natural on the lips, though, and had just a h... May 30, 2008, 4:30 pm I might have an older formulation of this gloss, apparently, because mine has a strange, almost sickening minty smell to it that I really can't stand. The color payoff is ok, not great; the blackberry shade I got looked like it would be much darker than it was. It did look quite natural on the lips, though, and had just a hint of shimmer to it - very subtle and flattering. I just hope they've gotten rid of the mint smell. Ew! May 30, 2008, 4:30 pm

  Great Gloss!

  by mrswesty (8 reviews)

  I happened to get this product free after a rebate - and boy am I glad! I like that there is no flavor or smell - I hate flowery lip color! It applies quickly and evenly with the small brush - the brush is easy to control so you can even reapply without a mirror. For a lip gloss, it has a lot of color - most glosses don'... May 2, 2008, 5:27 am I happened to get this product free after a rebate - and boy am I glad! I like that there is no flavor or smell - I hate flowery lip color! It applies quickly and evenly with the small brush - the brush is easy to control so you can even reapply without a mirror. For a lip gloss, it has a lot of color - most glosses don't seem to have much color - but obviously this does not have as much color as a lipstick. For a little more natural color, this is it!

  Good colors and like the peppermint

  by bellydancefae (18 reviews)

  I had this in a rose color, before they changed the coloring system. I like the feel of the peppermint, and I also liked the texture even though it was stickier than I usually wear. It's sorta halfway between a lip gloss and a lipstick in opacity. November 12, 2007, 7:00 pm

  Love

  by j_orestano (69 reviews)

  

  I have this lipgloss in clear-I like to put it on over lipstick and it is very shiny and looks great! Someone else said it doesn't have a smell but mine has a really nice mint fragrance-love that. It can rub off easily though. May 20, 2008, 1:17 pm

  love the color

  by PickyMN_RN (4 reviews)

  Love the color, the price and the brush. Goes on great and wears fairly well, not sticky which is a plush. Almost felt like a really moisturizing chapstick. One con: the taste/smell. There was none. I'd like to have a little DuWop like smell and taste to it and it'd be fantabulous. April 15, 2008, 8:43 pm

  On the fence

  by dburge (33 reviews)

  

  I used this as kind of an overcoat for my lipstick, it gave it that sparkle and wet look without being too heavy, and it also helped it to fade evenly. While I love it for that use, I wouldn't use it as just a gloss. It doesn't hold it's color long and is a bit sticky. February 15, 2008, 10:08 am

  Bleh

  by ModernDayWriter (147 reviews)

  

  The color selection is a little limited and not too good. I have this in the wine color and it clashed with my skin a little. The texture and feel of it wasn't that great either, I felt it was a little too gloopy and did not last through a cup of coffee. February 12, 2008, 3:31 pm

  Runs and gritty

  by Jesstootall (11 reviews)

  I have this in a couple of different shades; Wine and Sunset Shimmer. The wine fades quickly and is thin enough that it runs. The Sunset shimmer has a gritty texture to it. Not fun. Fortunately I got one cheap and the other free. August 19, 2008, 1:15 pm

  Glossy Greatness!

  by krudder30 (186 reviews)

  

  I really like this lip gloss. It gives a hint of color with the slightes amount of sparkle. I did not find it too sticky or goopy at all. The brush applicator is perfect and the "Blackberry" version will rival Clinique's "Black Honey" any day of the week. I have four shades and love them all! June 23, 2008, 10:42 am
