Editor Review

Rated a 6.5

Looks like Lancôme Juicy Tube; feels like Vaseline Lip Therapy with a mild, peppermint tingle. Environmental advocates will want to hug the recycled, egg carton-like package that houses each tube of super-shiny goo. Certified organic/organically grown ingredients hydrate and soothe, but not every ingredient fits that bill. Sheer, nature-inspired pigments flatter most complexions and blend easily with other lip colors. Texture is mostly slick with a little stick. Love-it-or-leave-it factor: The herbal, medicinal scent is an acquired taste.

    Mix or use alone- I work for them!

    by KristenSanders (5 reviews)
    As a skin care professional/make-up artist, this product is nice alternative to the usual lip gloss. Sometimes it can be sticky though. It works great alone for a natural look- there are various colors. Also it works great over lipstick or mixed. The options are endless! Have fun! April 22, 2008, 9:32 pm

    Everyday Lipgloss

    by Deirdre (16 reviews)
    I love Grapefruit Pulp! Not only does the color look good on my lips, but it has a pleasant smell that you don't always find with lipglosses. It doesn't matter what color outfit I am wearing, this lipgloss always works. April 21, 2008, 6:00 am

    All natural goodness

    I really like the "Beet Root" Lip Shine. It's got the perfect touch of colour to it that lightly stains the lips, and, best of all, the shine is minimalistic yet deeply hydrating. The only thing I don't like about these Lip Shines is the often hint of "spice" flavouring, it seems to irritated my throat... at times. November 29, 2007, 5:20 pm

    so - so gloss

    by NIKKI104 (30 reviews)
    I have this lip shine in a great COLOR! It's super shiny and goes on slick with just a little tackyness. I hate the scent and the taste is not great. Multiple applications are necessary to keep up the color, it practical comes off by jus smacking your lips together. Needless to say I have it in a great COLOR. I doubt I woul...d purchase another one though. May 23, 2009, 6:41 pm

    I love this gloss

    by bkstar (34 reviews)
    I have 871 Golden Prism - I love it - leaves my lips glossy and natural looking - its looks sun kissed. I don't mind the sticky feeling as its ok - its the gloss and the fact it doesn't dry my lips. April 27, 2009, 1:47 pm

    Nice feel to it!

    by ropergirl (24 reviews)
    This lipgloss has a nice shine that isn't sticky and a light minty taste. Nice colors that are sheer and can go over any lipstick or lip pencil. I use this alot for everyday wear. October 21, 2008, 7:17 am

    Looks nice but dont kiss anybody

    by MeghanMac (2 reviews)
    I bought this about a year ago, and I haven't even used half of it. The gold shade I have looks really pretty on, but it tastes like CRAP. Since lip stuff inevitably ends up in your mouth as well as on it, taste is important to me. That is one of the major reasons I don't wear lipstick. If you do, maybe you won't mind the ...taste?

    For just a hint of color

    by Jxdavis (52 reviews)

    I bought this product in Root & I have liked it as a natural lip gloss. It doesn't deliver a lot of color, though, so bear that in mind. September 3, 2008, 10:23 am
