I bought this lip gloss in the shade "so fabulous" which is a nude shade. i love that it makes my lips super glossy and the fact that it hydrates my lips as well is an added bonus.Even though it is advertised that it keeps your lips shiny for up to six hours , i find that it lasts up to four hours for me. I usually use it on its own but on special occasions i usually dab alil over my lipstick for that added shine that i adore.
