Dear Clinique, I’m in Love with Colour Surge Impossibly Glossy
There’s just something about you that I can’t deny. Maybe it’s the way you glide onto my lips without being too sticky or too sheer. Or perhaps it’s how long-lasting you are, the fact that you just stay on my pout without going anywhere until I decide to eat you with my morning bagel.
But most of all I think love you, Sure Thing, because you’re a fresh and pretty pink shade with tiny gold flecks, a divine color for spring. You’ve almost made me forget my lust for Chanel Glossimers - almost.
The only thing you tease me with is that you’re not available online, are you playing a game of hide and seek? I received you with my recent GWP and I just need to have you in more colors - please dear folks at Clinique, if you’re reading, help me find more Colour Surge Impossibly Glossy!
Desperately Seeking.. Yours, With Love,
Lilan

Interesting…I have two tubes of this and I never got into them. I found them sticky, and the colors I chose were not really flattering, but that’s really my fault. But also, they started to smell bad after a few months…like so bad I couldn’t stand to wear them. Oh well, it sure does look great on you! Good luck finding more shades.

You’ve got such lovely lips that glosses work super good on you
big full lips like mine should have to be careful with glosses..but OH..I LOVE glosses too!!! and I want one!

Hey Elizabeth,
Aww I’m sad to hear that the glosses don’t work for you. I’ll definitely keep your tip in mind about the expiration - that sounds a little scary! Perhaps I need to finish my current tube before I search for more. I have so many glosses, sometimes it takes quite a while to go through just one!
What is your favorite brand/product for gloss?

Hi Nikki,
Glosses are definitely my favorite, I just can’t get enough! Full lips are gorgeous and glosses look beautiful on you I’m sure! Hope you go out and try these lippies, I really like them

What a cute post! I love the color and your letter to Clinique was so silly and fun.

Hi Mrs. Lynne!
I know right?! Have you ever enjoyed a product so much only to not be able to find it online? I guess this gives me an excuse to head down to the Clinique counter again soon
Anything fun planned this weekend girl??

Hi Jamie!
Boy I really hope that someone from Clinique is reading it! Can wait to get down to the counter to find some more Clinique goodies for my makeup bag
Have an awesome weekend!

Hmmm… It seems very similar to Estee Lauder’s famed ‘High Gloss’. I really loved that High Gloss! It smelled like vanilla and figs and tasted great! Yup, I’m a gloss eater.
What does the Clinique gloss smell/taste like?

Hi Mandy,
You know, Estee is very under-used in the Lilan household.. I think we gotta change that! And at the top of my list will be High Gloss, for sure. You know this girl can’t live without my gloss!
This Clinique gloss doesn’t taste like anything that I can think of, unless it really is meant to taste like an everything bagel with light cream cheese

Lilan, I just bought Benefit Her Glossiness - me new favorite gloss! I bought a dark berry shade. Lovely. Have you tried this stuff?

Hi Elizabeth,
Ooo, dark berry shade sounds so pretty! I haven’t tried this formula yet - what is the consistency like?
