I bought the drugstore alternative to this - Covergirl's AmazeMint, in Happy Hour. It's not very pigmented, and sheers out to be pretty much clear, but I love it! Non-sticky, just the right amount of minty, and moisturising. It definitely has more blue in it than Angelina, so give it a try! What's $3 for a great tube of gloss, even if it doesn't show very blue? (It doesn't make my teeth look whiter imo, but they're pretty white to begin with so I doubt I'd notice ^^) Rae´s last blog post..Fyrinnae haul

I think it's so cute how there's a lil dip in your lips - it makes your lips look so juicy! Wait - did that sound weird? hahaha tokyostargirl´s last blog post..

My dentist told me that red lipstick makes your teeth look whiter, anything blue based would accent the yellow (cool and warm colours highlight each other…hmmm, who knows.

I like the plumping lipsticks because I actually enjoy the sting (I know, I’m a bit of a freak) but worry that extended use would lead to those horrible wrinkles that make your lipstick feather when you get older. Anytime you stretch skin it doesn’t spring back the same after a certain length of time.

I’ve tried the Benefit California kiss blue tinted lipgloss. It tastes/smells like mint from what I remember. Sort of reminded me of Crest toothpaste on my lips. The sales associate who was helping said it looks nice over benetint on the lips. But I thought the blue tint made my lips look pale. So I didn’t get it.

thanks for the review. I’ve been curious about the blue glosses lately too. (I could care less about plumping action). I’m a big coffee drinker too. oh, FYI there is a truly drugstore verison of this out. I think covergirl slicks-the one’s with crest, LOL. they are supposed to be minty and freshen breath and they have a blue one. haven’t tried it myself though.

But you know what? I actually kind like this on you-I’m not sure I would *want* my lips to look blue…it’s pretty on the lips as is. I think I “need” (yeah, right, need) a clear gloss to layer over lipstick….can you believe I don’t own a clear???? For our trip I’m planning to take a nude peach (shu OR 538), and pink (mac modesty) and a red (besame red) lipstick and want ONE gloss that will top them all…..so I may still check this out!
