Have you received your gumballs yet? Chat about them here!

My favorite is St. Tropez. Love the color, love liquid lip formulas!

Barcelona is a good color- I'm surprised I'll be able to wear it. No review yet on whether it plumps, but- I've already got very full lips. (I'll never need collagen injections!)

I really love the Tahitian Vanilla balm. Excellent for moisturizing and protection before bed, and the waxier texture helps it stay longer.

Can't really say whether or not the plumping works, but I love the shimmer and the color is soft enough for daytime yet if you put on another layer it totally works at night as well. A perfect summer coral!

I love the color of Stockholm, usually I don't like the sheer ones as much, but this still shows up and is super pretty! And if it was less sheer it would probably be too dark for me. I'm not sure on the formula though, maybe its the plumping in it, but it feels kind of sticky and less moisturizing....

St.Tropez is a pretty pink, kind of mlbb color. It is really nice for a liquid gloss, non sticky and creamy. I do still prefer non-liquid though. I might be weird but liquid glosses feel too wet on my lips or something, I like the stick lipppies, those just feel like a lip balm... so comfortable.

I still have to test out Barcelona and the clear balm.

Oxana, Stockholm isn't the plumping one, Barcelona is. But they all contain that a new oil, I believe.

I need to spend some time with my gumball lip glosses. They arrived yesterday, but I was out at a scouting BBQ last night, and then had my older son's eighth grade promotion today, so I haven't had time to really try them on and see how I like the colors. The texture of the butter cream ones did feel nice when I quickly swatched them before running out of the house last night.

I missed out on St. Tropez, and I am very bummed. I hope it comes out as a regular item very soon!

I did use the Tahitian Vanilla lip balm last night before I went to bed and it was still on my lips this morning. I definitely like it!

I am sooo bummed. I missed out on all the gumballs since we were so broke last week. Now this week I could scrape together enough for St. Tropez and Barcelona since they are the ones I wanted, but of course they are gone. Any idea when or if Karen is going to release the new liquid lippie collection?

I have now tried all three lip glosses, and I love them. St Tropez is a perfect color, but it stings me a tiny bit, but so does Modern Poet, I dunno what is different in them. It's not deal breaker, just sayin. Barcelona is so lovely and pinky. And today I've got Stockholm on with a teal eye shadow that kinda looks like 5th Ave and some gold eye liner. It's prretttyyy. I love, lov, love the texture of the butter cream formula.

I Have tried all the gumballs. I can say I LOVE the feel of them all! Esp. The liquid wand. The only CON for me is the colors :( I know this might be Contrary to what most women are saying, and it's great that they are working for some(PINK and REDs don't work for everyone). BUT I feel like we NEED some colors for tan/dark women too! I would really love to see a brown lip gloss. And more matte/little bit sparkle or Opaque color PLEASE! I know this is just my opinion. Sincerely, Rose

ETA: Even Skinny dip which is the brownest lippie on the site looks pink on me!

I LOVE Stockholm!!! I didn't try the other two, but Stockholm and the Tahitian Vanilla Balm are both fab. I hope Stockholm becomes permanent.
