I really like this gloss. It is a pink with a gold shimmer, so it looks like two slightly different colors, depending on the angle of the light. It is a little too shimmery and pale, but I used a neutral lip liner with it to define my lips and it looked great. I would have to do that with any light gloss. It doesn't look pink on me at all-more of a nude, but I guess the slight pink keeps it from leading to a washed out look. I blotted it a little to take the edge off the shimmer. The overall effect was really nice for that youthful pouty lip look. It smells like vanilla, and tastes a little sweet, but neither of theses bothered me. The smell went away fast.This is less sweet and has less smell than Bonne Bell sponge on sparklers. This is a fairly thick gloss, so it lasts as well as any thick gloss. I gave it a 4 because I think it could have a little less of a frosted look.
