Great Gloss!
This was my first time to purchase this lip gloss. I was not disappointed! Love the colors and the shine. Great for spring and summer wear.

Love these glosses!
These lip glosses are amazing. They go on smoothly and are not sticky at all. They have a nice minty taste and create such a beautiful high shine on the lips! I will definitely be adding more colors to my collection!

Favorite Gloss!!
These glosses are great. Not sticky and are extremely moisturizing. They actually heal my dry chapped lips. I purchased both duos and the colors go on sheer but look very pretty. I also like to pair these with Tarte's Lipsurgence lip tints. I'm addicted and I hope to see more in deeper shades.

needs new applicator
I love everything about these EXCEPT the applicator. I cant stand the applicator! It takes 5-6 clicks to begin to get anything, then i get a ton!

Best tarte gloss to date.
-I have now tried all tarte glosses currently available, and this is the best one in my opinion. It is minty (peppermint I think), but not overwhelming. It does not sting or burn your lips. It is just refreshing. It tastes slightly minty, which is actually nice on a date. It is not fake, fruity, or sweet. It tastes very natural. Not the kind-of gloss where you are distracted by the scent or taste. The texture is very nice too. It is sticky, it is a gloss. It is sticky enough to last longer than most glosses, but not so much that you can not stand the feel on your lips. I personally prefer a sticky gloss. I think they last longer.
-Onto the size. You get a good amount of gloss. Compare the size with other glosses you own. It looks like a tiny st!l@ container, but it is much bigger and wider.
-I have a light peachy-pink and a pink grapefruit color from kits. Remind me of the pinks. Both are quite sheer. Either could be worn over top of just about any lipstick shade. Unless you have a good amount of color in your lips, you need lipstick under unless you prefer to look VERY natural. The pop colors might apply more color. Not sure since I do not own them, but I plan to buy them next when I run out.
-I agree with the other reviewer who said you need to pay attention when first twisting the product out. I counted 100 clicks until the product came out, literally 100 clicks. Takes me about 7 twists for my bottom lip, then the same for the top lip. It is not problematic or anything, just be careful the first time.
-Last note; if you have trouble getting the last tiny bit of gloss out: pop off the lid, pull the piece of plastic that has the brush on it out *(you will have to pull it twice), dip the brush into the gloss that is now exposed. Easier than it sounds. Nice to have that option if you run out while traveling or at work reapplying. The brush pops back on easily until you reapply again. I find there are only 2-3 uses left, when it won't click up gloss anymore.
-I would buy this again, but in the pops. I just need more color on my lips. I am fair, wear Agent 00 or fair in tarte. Fair in be. I think most women would prefer the pinks.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!!!
I Love this lip gloss, I have tried soooooo many lip glosses, and I can finally rest because I have found THE ONE! I just had to write a review for this product, I don't normally write reviews but I figured how are customers going to know. I read what others say and will often will buy or not buy based on the number of reviews and the overall ratings. So I figured I better write a review. One down fall the product does go really fast, so buy two sets cause you will be in love and the smell is HEAVENLY!
Try it you will love it, I think it's the pure optic in the lip gloss.

Totaly Pumps Lips!
IF you put alot on , it plumps your lips , YOu cant see the lines on your lips either.. I figured out why they call it Optic High Shine..Its beautiful when you put alot on... it s has an opaque look and it has the appearance of plump lips. IT didnt take me 100 clicks, had no problem with mine. Love this!

Love the pepperminty feel.
It smells, feels, and tastes good. It goes on nicely. I like the brush. Be careful upon the first use. I twisted mine 100 clicks until product came out (literally 100 clicks). Count and go slow or you could have a mess. It takes me 10 clicks each application. I have slightly larger than normal lips (not thin not quite thick). This gloss makes my lips look voluminous. Love that. It is my favorite of all tarte glosses. They are on the sheerer side. The two I have I got in kits, but I would buy more if I ran out. You get a nice amount of gloss too. I know it does not look like it online, but the tube is very wide and holds a lot.
