Get This: Too Faced Mood Swing Lip Gloss...

This gloss is just one of those novelties that you just GOTTA try, it works kind if like on eof those 70's mood rings.  Mood Swing Emotionally Activated Lip Gloss An emotionally activated lip gloss that ranges from Smurf-blue shimmer to beautiful berry.

Too Faced Smurfberry Mood Swing Emotionally Activated Lip Gloss allows you to wear your emotions on your lips. It claims that depending on your body heat level, the gloss will change into countless shades of Smurf-berry pink. Mine stayed berry pink...I tried it on my mom and hers was a lighter pink.  I never saw a change but not sure my body heat level changed all that much.  I suppose it would be different in summer.

At any rate...it's a great gloss and I am curious how it reacts on other people's skin etc...so if you give it a whirl check back with me and let me know.  It also comes in a pink version....

Get This: Sephora's Exclusive NARS Lipgloss Collection...

If you are a regular reader, then you kmow what a fool I am over NARS lipgloss.  But with the economy being so crappy right now there is no way I can justify buying more than one at a time (hell now even one really.)  Well how about 6??  Yeah you heard me.....SIX.  Holiday sets are starting to come out and Sephora & NARS have put together a fantastic one!

The Rundown:

• Triple X (clear shine)
• Harlow (silvery mauve)
• Striptease (pearlized beige sheen)

Drugstore Diva: Nivea Kiss of Shine Lip Gloss...

Trolling the aisles of the drugstore is what I do best and on my latest trip, I found a new glossy lippie!  Nivea's A Kiss of Shine...everyone is coming out with lip gloss these days.  This one is shimmery, sheer and contains Vitamin E, Grapeseed Oil and Shea Butter to keep lips soft.

The gloss is shiny, but not sticky and moisturizes really well with just enough color.  I wore Natural over lip liner on Friday and was very pleased with how well it kept my lips moisturized.  This would be perfect for weekends or if you are a no lipstick kinda gal and want a little color and shine without going overboard.  Available at major drugstore retailers nationwide in the coming weeks in Natural, Pink and Red (all three are very nice) this retails for around $4.

Do you love old fashioned soda fountain drinks but have sworn them off because of the calories??  Here is a great solution...all the flavor and 100% calorie free!  I am a fool for these glosses anyway, high shine loads of moisture and fun flavors make this one of my top ten favorite glosses.

These are perfect for everyday of you like no-brainer glosses...perfect for stashing in your desk drawer or glove compartment.  The flavors of Cherry Cola, Fruit Punch and Root Beer remind me of m Bonne Bell lip smacker days!  Pick up this set at Sephora for $28 (which is a great price for three glosses!)

Get This: Kissable Couture Lip Gloss...

I was definitely on the fence about this gloss after I heard there were packaging issues but low and behold they have been FIXED!  I just got my tube of Johnny in the mail the other day and it worked PERFECTLY.  Kissable Couture is the creation of Keisha Whitaker (wife of Oscar winner Forest) and her friend the fabulous celebrity makeup artist A.J. Crimson.  The glosses are beautifully packaged and very moisturizing.  They are lightweight and shimmery and PERFECT for layering over lip color or wearing alone.

The glosses in the "Kissable" collection range in color from warm peach to sultry burgundy. There are seven shades in all, BUT the cutest thing is that every gloss is named after boys that Keisha and her friends have kissed (how cute is that??)

The Rundown:

• Forest: Crimson sparkle (hahaha!!)
  
• David: Smokey topaz
• Tyler: Bright violet 
• Eric: Bronzed coral
• Chris: Pure peach
• Dylan: Bubblegum pink   
• Johnny: Pale lavender 

Also available are the new Everything Love Inspires (reds and rosey pinks) and The Nudes (creamy caramels) collections.  Kissable Couture retails for $22 and is available exclusively at Henri Bendel in New York, other boutiques nationwide and online at KissableCouture.com.

Get This: L'Oreal Infallible 6 Hour Lipgloss...

I know I am a lipgloss junkie, I can't help it...but that is beside the point!  I saw this little beauty in CVS yesterday and grabbed a few shades to test out.  Why should you bother with another gloss you say?  Well for one, this one is affordable so you can buy more than one shade, it stays put for 4-6 hours (no joke) and it is scented but flavorless.  L'Oreal Infallible 6 Hour Lipgloss is a true one-step long-lasting lip gloss that feels comfortable, not sticky or tacky.  I loved Dulce de Leche, Truffle and Sangria.

Now for the pros...it comes in 16 shades, it is not sticky or tacky, it is moisturizing without being too "glossy", it has a little keyhole type applicator that is very nice feeling on the lips as opposed to the standard "doe foot" applicator that seems to absorb so much product. The only thing missing here really is SPF but I will forgive them because I use a lip balm that has SPF built in.

Now this is not a "no-transfer" gloss, BUT it will last through a meal. You will still end up with gloss on your glass but for the money definite thumbs up.

Priced at $9.99 at Drugstore.com and all drugstores nationwide.
