Cheap Thrills — Shiny Red Gloss

You wouldn't think it'd be that hard to find shiny red, glitter-free gloss.

You'd be wrong.

I'm kinda over the glitter-in-the-gloss thing, but that's mostly what I have. Seems like that's how most glosses are. But Maybelline's New York Shine Sensational gloss in Cherry Kiss is the perfect glisteny red. No glitter allowed.

Despite its name, the stuff actually has a watermelon-y scent. It's a pale red on the lips, so it would work with other lipstick colors, too. It squirts right out of the tube for easy application, and it's not too sticky, either. The price is easy-on-the-wallet, too — under $5. Look for it at — where else — Target.
