Susie, is the glitter in Peach Parfait the gritty, chunky kind? Real glitter, not just shimmer? I am interested in the shade but won´t tolerate the feeling of chunks of glitter on my lips.

The glitter is not chunky or gritty by any means but it's really in your face, imo, glitter. It was the first one I purchased and it was the last one in the group. And, it's the first one I tried and I was really disappointed. And, when I wiped it off, there were still some glitters left all over my lips. I was not pleased. I may give it to my niece. I think that without the glitter it would be a favorite.

Thank you, Listy for posting the swatches.  BTW - everyone's fav on youtube seems to be Red Velvet. They love that's not in your face red.

I still think the Red Velvet would be too warm for me, but I can really see how pretty it would be on others.  I am still amazed at the reviews saying it rivals or outdoes their very high-end glosses!

I'm not sure if I want to buy Red Velvet myself. But, I do want to try one or two more. I'm just not sure which ones.  :)

A bit late on this thread - but these look fantastic! I've been looking for something like this that I can just swipe on over my trusty WnW #666 lip liner pencil, or just wear by itself and be as easy as a lipstick. I do like glosses, but something that's in between a gloss and a lipstick is genius, and I believe a lip liner pencil would give it staying power. That lip liner pencil I mentioned is very close to my natural lip color BTW, so I think this would work. I've just been over on MUA where they are just loving these, plus there are helpful pix including swatches to make sense of the colors. I saw a display of these at Walgreens this afternoon but wanted to see swatches before I buy any. The colors that appeal to me are possibly Pink Truffle(a warm brown-pink) Fig Jam(supposed dupe for Clinique Black Honey but sheerer I think which would be good)and Candy Apple(warm red - would be great at night with black clothes). I see a makeup purchase in my future here. Save for a recent Wet 'n Wild eyeshadow palette purchase, I've been on a no-buy for makeup for months now. Fall's a good time to break the fast, plus rich fall colors suit me better anyway as a higher-contrast warm-toned person.

I have decided that I'm going to try this product as soon as I find it in a store. The pictures and descriptions have convinced me that I deserve this treat.

I went looking for these at my Target yesterday but did not find them. 
If there is anything I hate about the internet is this advance knowledge of something I can't get yet.

Yes, there has to be a color for each of us!

Always trying to find the bright side of things, at least we know to look for them before they usually run out of stock. I hate it when I'm late to something and all the good colors are gone. By the time they are back in stock I've forgotten about the product. But I'm fickle too so that must be considered. :lol:

The word is that these will be widely available in January, so some of us may have to be patient.  (I know; I know.)  They have popped up in some Walgreen's, Rite-Aid, Target, CVS, and supposedly Bed Bath and Beyond has them cheaper than the usual $7.50.

I can't help wanting to wait for a drug store sale...40% off, BOGOFree, or at least BOGOHalfoff, just because I know they have these quite often for Revlon.

Meanwhile, I really want Sugar Plum. :(

Bed Bath and Beyond has great prices on lots of health and beauty stuff if they have such an outpost in one of their stores. Not all of their stores have a health and beauty section though. Between their lower prices and the coupons, one can get awesome deals!

The coupons are never good on the web site, much to my dismay! :cry:

Just got home from Walgreen's where I found a completely full display unit of these, although some of the shades mentioned upthread were not represented, such as Red Velvet and Pink Truffle. I bought Gumdrop. May go back for Lollipop. Love the texture: silky, sheer, not too shiny. I'm not a gloss girl, but I love tinted balms and am constantly searching for the perfect cool pink-plum. Gumdrop should be good to layer over some shades that I have that are a bit too warm.

Lucky lady!  So glad you like them.  How well do they last on you?

Staying power seems okay, so far. Right now, I have Gumdrop on with a little WnW Mauve pencil neatening up the corners and Chanel Aqualumiere Sheer Color Lipshine in Bahamas (discontinued) dabbed on the center of lips (lower lip, mostly), which makes my lips look a little fuller.
