OT: What kind of lipgloss do you like?

[Mom to Brandon and 2 cats]

I'm looking for one that's not sticky. Thanks!

I really like my Kiehl's--it's not sticky at all. I have Lip Balm Hue #58B. HTH!

If you want another site to get into, check out makeupalley.com
It's got tons of reviews of different beauty products.

I dont' wear a lot of lip gloss, so have no good experiences to share. All mine are fairly sticky/yucky.

I actually like one by Covergirl. I forget the exact name, but it comes in a tube like lipstick. The texture is a lot like chapstick, so not sticky. Also not super shiny, but I think a nice sheer color. And super cheap!

I like Aveda lip gloss....it even smells really good.

But what I really want to know is what they used on American Idol on the girls. Their lips looked awesome!

My fave of all time is the lip gloss by beauticontrol. Wonderfully shiny and non-sticky. Currently, I also love the CO Bigelow lipgloss from Bath and Body Works. They have some with a bit of tint that I relaly like. It's pepperminty, too!

[jbowman]

I love Kiehl's and Labello (really more of a balm); for color, I like Clinique's Almost Lipstick (they may call it something different now).

Jessica Simpson's DESSERT lip gloss is fabulous. I also love VS. :)

[urquie]

i love, love, love the burt's bees lip shimmers. there is a bit of color (depending on which one you choose) and the nice smell of peppermint oil. i have the watermelon which barely has color -just a bit of shine. when i want more color i use the rhubarb - my idea of lipstick :)

I was thinking the exact same thing!
Here is the makeup artist's "secrets", but they don't name the products:

BTW, I'm liking Laura Mercier's lipgloss Ambre Rose.
Also, Vincent Longo's Lipstain Lipstick and Gel X Lipstick seem very nice (you can test them out at Sephora).

I have a girlfriend who just recommended the Victoria's Secret gloss to me, although I don't know if it's not sticky...it'll really juicy up your lips! She also mentioned a gloss at Bath & Body Works that she says will "plump" up your lips b/c of mint or menthol or something? Sounded cool.

I like Juicy Tubes, but they are sooooo sticky. Estee Lauder also has a Double Wear Stay-in-Place Lip Duo w/ gloss and it is SOOOOOOOO glossy and pretty, even though the colors are intense and the gloss was initially sticky. I tried Rare Wine and it was so gorgeous and sparkly, I just couldn't justify $24 for such a dark pinky red.

I like the Clinique's Bare Brilliance sheer lipsticks for that reason, it's not sticky like a gloss, but the color is sheer, shiny and one easy step. New fave is Ruby Glass.

Another vote for Burt's Bees' lip balms. I have 3 of them (I know one is Rhubarb, not sur eof the others- in purses/cars). They are all very nice and like the PP, my idea of lipstick. One of the shades is a bit shimmery, not just glossy.

[dhano923]

Bobbi Brown's lip gloss. Great shine, but not sticky!

[kozachka]

Cargo lipgloss. Check it out in Sephora for colours that you like. PP ask me what I am wearing all the time when I have it one and it is not sticky. And it comes in a huge tin :). You get two colours in one tin.

I second the Cargo lip gloss! I went to Sephora and the sales girl suggested that I try the Xai Xai colors. I love the colors and the consistency - not sticky at all!

I like Nars but it is a tad sticky. Lovely colors and wears well. A trick to get any color to wear longer is to use a clear lipliner to fill in your whole mouth then apply the gloss. Covergirl and Paula's Choice both sell a clear lipliner (basically a waxy stick).

Another good website for make-up reviews and more is www.emakemeup.com. I don't know if you would find it sticky, but I like MAC Lipglass.

I love Estee Lauder's lip glosses (not the dual one with liner that a previous poster mentioned, but the one that comes with a wand applicator). Not sticky at all, very pretty colors (and a TON of them) and they smell like figs (yummy). I think I have about seven different colors (hides head in shame).

I used to use Lancome's Juicy Tubes a LOT, but just wanted a change. They are very heavy though and I find that people either love them or hate them. I liked the heaviness/stickiness to them though ... it seemed like it made it stay on my lips a lot longer than regular lip gloss.
