Ga-ga-ga glossy, glossy.

I won’t lie: I’m a lip gloss junkie. Surely Chapstick has its time and place, but there ain’t no shame in shelling out $20 for a two-inch tube of the good stuff every once in a while.

I was cleaning out my purse drawer when I rediscovered my long-lost and sorely missed Urban Decay XXX Shine in Guys Love Betsy (center), a cooling, vanilla-peppermint-scented moisturizing gloss with just a hint of color. It ranks among Stila Lip Glaze and Lancôme Juicy Tubes as one of my top glosses of all time. The cherry tint is perfect against tan skin and pearly whites, so take this one out for a spin before summer comes to a close – I can’t promise it won’t stick to your hair in the convertible, but for lush color and a long-lasting shine, even this Windy City girl can make some sacrifices.
