Uh, oh… Someone spiked the punch!
I’ve never heard that in reference to actual punch before, but I’ve always wanted to say it.
How goes the weekend? Good, I hope. I had a pretty relaxing afternoon, I’m happy to report. No news is good news, right? Oh, I finally caught the last episode of Project Runway online. I don’t want to spoil the ending if you haven’t seen it yet, but what did you think? Did the right person win (I think so!)?
Because it was sunny today I couldn’t stop thinking about the beach, which led me to think about coral (and surfing) and the subject of today’s giveaway, Benefit’s Spiked Punch lipgloss, one of the new Ultra Shines Lip Shine glosses I’ve been lurving lately (see it in action here).
I hope you’re ready to shine. 🙂
The prize
One lucky lady will win a tube of Benefit’s shimmery coral Ultra Shines Lip Shine Gloss in Spiked Punch (an $18 value).
Spiked Punch, like the other Ultra Shines Lip Shine glosses, radiates a mirror-like finish and packs pigment to spare. It doesn’t hit counters until May, so this is an early peak.
How to enter…
Entering is easy. There are two different ways, and you can do both of them for two chances to win.
First, you can enter by leaving a comment at the bottom of this post. In it, share a trick you use to keep your lips looking great, or tell me the name of your current favorite gloss.
For softer lips the following day, I’ll apply some lip balm right before bed.
Second, enter by following me on Twitter and retweeting (RT) the following message:

Hello! I use MAC Prep + Prime Lip under both my lipsticks and lipglosses.
It works better than any other primer I have tried. Thanks, Cindi
Cyn says
My current favorites are the Body Shop’s Love Gloss.
Elisabeth says
I have full lips so I have to make sure that I exfoliate them once a week after which I slather on some Vaseline. B/c I’m cheap like that.
kammi says
I am following you on twitter. I tweeted this contest. I am @kammikoza
Molly says
I buff my lips a little with a soft toothbrush, to get rid of any dry bits, then slather them with Smith’s Rosebud balm. Old school, but that’s why it’s still around- it works!
kammi says
I love using Jouer Lips Moisture because it makes my lips soft and then I use my favorite Amway lipstick ontop. It looks great!
Cindi says
I follow you on Twitter…..

darci says
I’m loving burts bees replenish lip balm and I do use it mainly at night right before i go to bed.
yiota says
I exfoliate my lips by gently rubbing my toothbrush over them! It works quite well..then i moisturize before bed with either Cake’s lip butter or Lush’s lip balm in Honey trap!
Ashley says
I use a homemade lip scrub (cinnamon,sugar,honey,evoo) twice a week & follow up with non-petroleum jelly! I wake up with this softest supple lips!
Audrey H. says
I use a dry wash cloth to exfoliate my lips, then I put a little plain lip balm like burt’s bees or simple vaseline on. Thanks, would love to try this lip gloss.
Jessica says
I don’t know if I have a favourite of all time, but I’m loving MAC Venetian right now! The perfect blue-red wash of colour.
Catherine says
My current favorite lipgloss is Laura Mercier’s Lip Plumper in Persimmon.
Still trying to figure out the keeping lips looking nice thing. I had routine that was working pretty well but it doesn’t seem to be really working anymore.. =/

Fatema says
Hi!! my current fav lip gloss is bare esscentuals bare minerals 100% natural lip gloss….I love it, it’s sooo moisturizing and feels good on my lips..stays long, no smell issue!!
Ambrrr says
I do a sugar paste scrub every other week, and use lots of Smith’s Rosebud Salve lip balm!
Shannon G says
My fav lip gloss of the moment is DuWop venom gloss in Lantana, the light pink has been helping me get into spring mode!
Kypris says
Funnily enough, I ALWAYS apply a good thick layer of lip balm before sleeping… makes my lips so much softer! I love the labello line – now taken over by nivea. Mmm and just a hint of scent that disappears fast. So good!
Lisa S. says
I brush my lips when I brush my teeth morning and evening and I alway put on a liberal coat of Born Lippy lip balm from The Body Shop after. In the mornings I wipe off the lip balm before I put on my lip stick or gloss. As for my lips I have tons of glosses and lipsticks but my go to is Airy Fairy by Rimmel with some kind of pinky sheer and shimmery gloss. Airy Fairy is a great neutral to pink lip on me.
jess says
moisturize lips before applying gloss or lipstick is crucial for non-flaky lips!
Shannon says
I’ve been seriously loving on Neutrogena’s MoistureShine Lip Soother in Shine. It’s pretty much a straight-up gloss, not a lot of color. It also starts out a little sticky, but after about 5 minutes it kind of just sticks to your lips and provides lots of moisture and shine for quite a long time. I grabbed a tube when the sun broke through the clouds and I wanted some SPF for my lips, and I’m a huge fan now! I do wish it was a bit more pigmented, but the moisture it lends my lips totally makes up for it.
snoopysteph says
When my lips are feeling flaky and dry I mix up a homemade scrub using olive oil and sugar. Rub all over your lips (and your hands while you’re at it!) and rinse. It’s a cheap and effective way of making your lips smooth & soft, especially if you do it at night.
michelle says
i like creamsheen gloss in luster richer
meg says
Old-school, but I love the standard Carmex in squeezy tubes – I slather a thick layer on right before bed every night. It soaks into my lips overnight to soften and keep the chaps away, even in winter time. And a tube is $1.50 or something ridiculously cheap – I haven’t found a high end balm I like better, and moisturizing lips overnight lets me use whatever gloss, stick, or balm I want to use during the day.
Cindy says
My current favorite lipgloss is Clinique’s Superbalm Moisturizing Gloss in Raspberry (:
Ashleigh says
Pretty color!
I rub my toothbrush over my lips at night and apply Rosebud salve before bed.
.-= Ashleigh’s last blog post… Friday Faves =-.
caro says
aquaphor is the best for chapped lips–too bad they aren’t flavored!
Alli says
To keep my lips in great shape I slather (and I do mean slather) on Smith’s Mocha Rose lip balm. It’s great and often times my lips are still a little glossy looking in the morning. My current favorite lip gloss is Perfectly Unordinary dazzleglass creme or whatever they were called. I just got it from a CCO and it rules.
Malca says
I put on vaseline at night and during the day I use good ol fashioned carmex. I have a container of carmex in my car, a few at home and at my desk at work.
Judy says
I use Vaseline to moisturize my lips every night, I find it works better than lip balms!
Maggie says
My current favorite gloss has got to be Korres’s Cherry Lip Gloss in Fuchsia! 😀
.-= Maggie’s last blog post… BBLL, Promised Swatches, and Luxury Pocky!? =-.
Ann says
to keep my lips looking great, i gently exfoliate my lips with a towel after a shower. i also make sure i stay well hydrated!

I think my current favorite gloss is MAC Love Nectar. I’m also loving (but have apparently already lost since I bought it two weeks ago) NARS Orgasm lip gloss. ARGH!
Lily says
I use Smith’s Strawberry Rosebud lip balm at night. In the morning, I wake up with insanely soft lips. My favorite lipgloss right now is Clinique’s lip smoothies in Goodness Grapecious. It’s so pretty and sheer and moisturizing!
Anna says
Def applying lip balm before bed is a great idea, but when I forget to do that, I slick on some vaseline right before my morning shower and when I come out, my lips are absolutely PERFECT. It’s fast and super easy and then I don’t go to bed with a bunch of vaseline on my lips.
Michelle says
I use a washcloth to exfoliate my lips and use Nivea lip balm. My fave lipglosses are Nymphette, Love Nectar, and Oyster Girl.
Amanda says
Hey Karen! I make sure I put on lip balm every night before bed so that I have nice, soft lips in the morning. My current favorite lip gloss is Revlon’s Super Lustrous in Coral Reef. No offensive smell, not too sticky, and a gorgeous color. Best of all, it’s cheap. 🙂

I have eczema, and as a result, my lips have a tendency to be very dry. I find that applying Aquaphor (Vaseline would work too) right after I brush my teeth/before I start the whole hair and makeup process, leaves my lips moisturized all day long!
Jill says

.-= Megan’s last blog post… rainy mondays =-.
Carolanne says
On nights when it’s extra chilly, my lips tend to dry out even more, and so what I do is apply lip balm like usual, but then i top it off with some tackier clear gloss; the thickness of the gloss makes sure my lip balm doesn’t fade away all night. =]
noppi says
my current favourite is sephora’s pplumping lipgloss in nude beige.
My tip is the usual way of caring lips. exfoliate with sugar and apply lipbalm before going to bed. 🙂

I get my lip gloss to stay on longer by gently exfoliating my lips with a wet wash cloth, applying lip balm without petroleum jelly or mineral oil in it, use MAC lip prep + prime, MAC subculture lip liner and MAC nymphette or Prrr lipglass.

My trick is to keep hydrated. I always feel like when I drink lots of water, I never have dry lips. I also make sure that I put chapstick on before bed.
Maria says
Rather than using lip scrubs on my lips, I just take a clean, damp toothbrush and slough off any dead skin and put on some chapstick afterwards – keeps my lips nice and smooth.
Oooh! I just fell in love with Lancombe Color Fever Gloss in Burning up! I didn’t think i’d be able to wear corally orange colours, but this is SO gorgeous! Especially with a light wash of Melon pigment over my eyelids – so pretty for summer!

a trick to keeping your lips soft is to use honey on them and leave it on for half an hour, no matter how tempting it is- do not lick the honey off! wipe or wash it off. this will also make your lips look plumper.

Avianna says
My current favorite gloss is from Gosh Cosmetics, although I am pretty sure the gloss I picked up was a LE from the holiday release. It’s black, which looks frightening in the tube, but when you slick it on it just ever so slightly deepens your lips, or if you’re wearing lip color, transforms it into this deep and velvety-plush looking version of the colour you’re wearing.
This lipgloss: pretty magical.
chibu74 says

Always put vaseline on your lips before you go to bed. It will make your lips oh-so soft in the morning!
Yao says
My favorite gloss right now is probably Benefit’s Buxom!
Clara says
This color really does look like summer! I tend to favor Lancome glosses, but am also a big fan of Burt’s Bees and Rosebud salve.
Zoe says
i cover one of my fingers with smith’s rosebud salve and then dip that finger into sugar and use it to exfoliate my lips. then i put some vaseline on my lips and let it sink in. finally i apply my current favorite gloss… bobbi brown lipgloss in nougat!

Poey says
mixing vaseline and some sugar is my favorite. cheap and sweet!
Jessica W. says
I scrub them with sugar and olive oil to make them extra soft and exfoliate them. I also use lip balm at night so they stay soft. Before I put on my lipgloss/stick in the morning I also coat on a layer of lip balm first.
My favorites right now are any lip stain by Chanel
Shailly says
hi Beautiful Ladies..
A great tip for all who have Clarisonic… Whenever i use my Clarisonic brush i exfoliate my lips with the brush . Makes my lips beautifully exfoliated and all pink.. perfect for a gloss like this.. By the way my current favorite is MY Mac Fold and tuck gloss from the Pret a papier collection.. Superb !!
haf a beautiful sunday

Sarah says
My secret? When I brush my teeth at night I exfoliate my lips with a toothbrush. Then I apply some Aquaphor before bed. I wake up to softer, smoother and (dare I say it?) plumper lips! 🙂
Sarah says
Oh my favorite lipgloss is currently a sephora lipgloss (bronzed beauty?). I got it along with two other lipglosses in the birthday gift they have.
Liza says
Dazzleglass in Golidrocks
Sophia says
I usually exfoliate my lips when I get out of the shower using a dry face cloth. I find that it works better then using any old lip scrub, to prevent it from going into my mouth. Then, I apply my favorite lipbalm (I’m currently loving a pina colada flavored lipbalm – yum!) My lips are all plump and ready to go! My favorite lipgloss is the new Liberty of London Tinted Lipglass by MAC in English Accents.
Jian says
I buff my lips when I’m cleansing with my Clarisonic. Well, I don’t see why i shouldn’t! Then I smear on a thick layer of Kiehls, and I head off to bed.
.-= Jian’s last blog post… New Food Blog: A Slice of Pinkfish Pie =-.
Sara says
I simply mix a little Burt’s Bee’s lip balm with some sugar, and use it before I go to bed 🙂
Vanessa says
My favourite gloss of the moment is Clinique Long Last Glosswear (with SPF – can’t beat that) in Guavagold.
TaniaN says

Nirthikaa says
Vaseline the night before = love 😀
Natalie says
To keep my lips looking great I always wear lip balm under lip gloss/lipstick. That way not only does my gloss/color apply better, I don’t feel the stickiness, and my lips don’t get dried out. I like Vaseline’s Lip Therapy and Aquafina’s original lip balm, both of which are really cheap too!!!
Thanks for the opportunity to win!
Ellen says
My current fave lipgloss is Lancome Juicy Tubes (I know, I know, but I just now discovered how amazing they are) in Fifth Avenue Frosting.
Lip tip: LUSH Cosmetics just came out (in NA) with the perfect lip scrubs: http://www.lushusa.com/shop/products/face/lip-balms-and-scrubs/
They’re super scrubby, and they taste fantastic. Their lip balms are great too.
Mary O. says
My current favorite gloss are the Bare Escentuals Buxom lipglosses. I personally adore the minty tingle that they give off, plus they come in a huge color range!

my two favorite lipglosses are wet n wild’s mega plump glosses and revlon’s super lusterous lipglosses. love them both!
Aparnaa says
My current favorite lipgloss is Stila’s Lip Glaze in Kitten. It’s the perfect nude – it reminds me of this page in the Color of Beauty by Iman where they have a vamp look with champagne lip gloss and perfect vampy eyes and I feel like a total sexpot when I wear it!
Also, Project Runway – I liked Anthony too much, but of the three, I think the right one won.
Julie says
i love benefit products! i was at sephora the day of my prom to grab a few things to do my makeup but just my luck one of the benefit makeup artists were in the house and did my prom makeup for me! it was wonderful! I never had a chance to try benefit products until that day. she did this amazing neutral smokey eye with a bright lip using benetint and i got compliments all day! i hope i can try this one out 🙂
Kat says
For some reason, lip balms don’t seem to work its effect on me. Something I do is apply a clear thick lip gloss at night and when I wake up in the morning, the dead layer of skin on my lips is totally loose so I just scrub that off with a face towel. Smooth surface with no unsightliness. Works every time I tell ya.
Molly says
I like using mac tendertones before I go to bed. Makes my lips so conditioned by the morning.

For lips: moisturize, exfoliate and protect. Chapstick moisturizer with SPF 15 is my favorite friend: costs one dollar and is a miracle on my lips. For an exfoliator, I use Benefit’s Dr. Feelgood scrub (it’s expensive, but so worth it!).
Tamara says
I slather on quite a bit of lip balm before bed (I’m currently loving those spherical organic EOS ones), and wake-up with a smooth and supple pout!
Nina says

.-= Katie’s last blog post… I have really long hair. =-.
Diane says
I like to keep my lips in tip top shape by either taking sugar and the minty version of rosebud salve. And when I’m not lazy I’ll take a teeny bit of toothpaste and brush it on my lips in small circular motions. I usually mix sugar and the minty rosebud salve because when I use the toothbrush method it makes my lips abit dry :(.

OMG, only pick one lipgloss? I’m having so much fun right now wearing a different one everyday. I guess if I had to pick one I’d go with Bare Escentuals Buxom in Lacey – I even wear it to bed because it’s pretty and good for my lips!

Exfoliating the lips every so often gives the best pout 🙂
Cristina Lopez says
The trick that I use to keep my lips looking great is…..(DRUMROLL PLEASE)!! Right after my shower and once before bedtime I have one of those Travel Toothbrushes in a case that I put either Vaseline or Un~Petrolium Jelly n I Brush my lips gently for about 10-15 seconds and then I imediately put on Extreme Lip Plumper by Victoria Secret n It leaves my lips extremely soft!!

Diane K. says
I am a make up junkie to the extreme but my greatest weakness is lip gloss. When I enter a department store, I am literally pulled toward the cosmetic counters by some unearthly force that no person can fight. The prettier the gloss, the more weak in the knees I become. I can spend hours going from counter to counter in the cosmetics department, driving anyone I’m with absolutely nuts, which is why I now only shop alone.
I love the MAC glosses but there’s something about these new Benefit glosses that keeps me coming back to this page for another look at your swatches. All the colors are beautiful and I think they’d all look good on all different skin tones which is pretty unusual.
So for my beauty tip that will make even your prettiest glosses look even better is this:
First, I line my lips with Mally’s nude lipliner for glosses. This liner is the best because it’s nude in color, so you never get that horrible Bozo the Clown look where you have a lipliner ring around your lips but the lipstick or gloss on your lips has disappeared. However, it creates a nude barrier, preventing your lipstick and glosses from bleeding. This particular lip pencil by Mally is designed specifically to prevent lipgloss from bleeding. Personally, I don’t know of any other pencil that does the same thing.
Then I apply a thin coat of Urban Decay lip primer
THEN, I coat my lips with Advanced therapy LipFusion XL (The $50 treatment) and let it set for about 45 seconds, giving your lips that plumped look most of us wish we had permanently.
Finally, you put on your favorite lipstick followed by your favorite gloss OR you simply apply your favorite lip gloss(my personal preference is gloss ONLY)
As for my favorite gloss for the moment, and my answer would change minute to minute depending on my mood, I would have to say it is presently Yve St Laurent (YSL) Exclusive Golden Gloss #29. These glosses are quite pricey but in my opinion, well worth it.
Thanks for this great giveaway.

I use the Cupid’s Bow Lip Shaper from Benefit here: http://www.benefitcosmetics.com/gp/product/B000UE7T1Y/sr=1-7/qid=1272242069/ref=sr_1_7/188-2411951-1187933?ie=UTF8&n=164992011&bcBrand=core
It makes my lips look more defined and put together
Sandy says
I make sure that I put lip balm on every night before I go to bed. My lips are always chap free because of this.
Izzy says
Ahhh! I love glosses. Anyway, my tips:
Exfoliate those babies with a soft toothbrush (or you can use some sugar mixed with a bit of water, or you can buy a lip exfoliator…but I go the toothbrush route!) then apply Vaseline on them before going to bed. This makes your lips super soft! I do it often, it works wonders especially when it’s nasty outside!
Rachel C says
Right now, my absolute FAVORITE lipgloss is Air Kiss by Clinique 🙂
Glosslizard says
Lip balm (I prefer one with shea butter) at night and an exfoliator (I love Tarte’s FRXtion) once or twice a week!

austenfan says
I keep my lips soft by religiously exfoliating with a sugar scrub that I make once a week, sufficient to last an entire week, and keep in my shower. So every morning I slough off nasty dead skin and it’s super easy when I’m showering. Next, Palmer’s cocoa butter lipbalm. Often overlooked, it’s simply the bomb.

I also use a lipbalm before going to bed (really like MAC’s Naked Honey Salve for this purpose), and lately I’ve been loving my Moistly lipgelee from MAC -it may have been discontinued recently. I love the feel and scent of it, and that it contains no shimmer. Only a sheer wash of red-berry.

Please enter me in the giveaway. I love lip gloss. I have tons of them. One brand I don’t have is Benefit! Love to win this one as I love the shade. The only trick I have is to use a lip balm at bedtime. If I don’t my lips feel very dry the next day. I have a habit of licking my lips so I need something on my lips at all times. I have lip balms stashed all over my apartment. I use it frequently. Thank you.

Carmex and a toothbrush after I brush my teeth and juicy tubes in lychee because the slight purple tint makes my teeth look whiter and the smell is faboush.
Happy Monday Ladies!

i love to wear a bold lip so when i do i prep lips with a balm to keep them moist and then i use a lip brush to paint on a creamy lip stick. the result :bold lips that last the whole day and your lips wont feel dry 🙂

a trick i use to keep my lips looking great: after i brush my teeth and rinse off all the toothpaste yuckings, i gently scrub my lips using a circluar motion. takes off all the dry old skin and leaves them looking soft. right after, apply some vaseline or your favorite lip chap 🙂
Katie says
It has to be CARMEX MINT CHAPSTICK hands down! Makes your lips sooooooo soft and has that tingly feeling. I find myself reapplying just for fun 🙂
Colleen says
NYX lipgloss – doesnt break the bank and also doesnt make my lips peel like some of the other less expensive brands.
Jo says
I use a dry toothbrush to gently remove dead skin from my lips during the winter time before bed. I then use a lip balm and go to sleep. When I wake, my lips are super soft. =)
Sandy says

My HG lip balm/treatment whatevs is Eucerin Aquafor. It’s not even a lip balm, it’s just an intense moisturizer, but nothing I’ve tried has left my lips feeling moisturized for so long. I love it because I barely ever feel I have to reapply throughout the day and it has no taste or fragrance. YAY!
Kat says
Weee! This looks lovely!
TheNellieBeast says
Palmers cocoa butter swivel stick – a life saver! the best and most moisturizing lip treatment ever!
Ari Gonzalez says
I love Strawberry Chap-stick, It always keeps my lips soft. A trick I use to keep my lips soft is brushing a wet SOFT toothbrush GENTLY over my lips once every other week. After this I swipe on my strawberry Chap-stick.
Jessica says
I received a sample of La Roche-Posay’s Ceralip from a friend. It is the best lip repair cream! I put it on before going to sleep and I wake up with the softest lips ever! It beats my former routine of chapstick. I was surprised a few months ago when I entered my local CVS and found it there! Now I need to stock up 🙂
charisse says
Hi Karen! I’m a lurker here for the last few months. The new Benefit Ultra Shines in Spiked Punch looks pretty!
My favorite gloss is a clear, unbranded type from my dermatologist – I use it day and night to keep my lips moisturized (and boy do my lips like to peel/get dry). I use it also as a primer underneath Benefit’s Full-Finish Lipstick in Do Tell or La La Land, my top two favorites. 🙂

Luciana Lima says

My favourite glosses are the Cargo ones, so smooth and beautiful. Plus I managed to get them for only £3.

Eve says
I use chapstick before I go to bed too and before i put on lipstick. I also exfoliate my lips for softer lips
nettie209 says
Nice beautiful plump lips are as easy as cleansing and exfoliating with a soft toothbrush & lip balm. I really haven’t experimented to much with lips glosses, I’m more of a primer, liner & matte lips stick gal for the more glamorous look. But I’ll be sure to try this lip gloss… it really looks pretty
