I don't know how much you want to spend, but a few of my staples are:
-NARS They are non sticky for the most part, have a huge array of colors, and you can choose from either stains or glosses
-Chanel Again, beautiful array of colors and unbeatable quality
-Rimmel Cheap, you can buy them at Wal Mart but they aren't gloppy and they smell good
-Bare Escentuals They have out these fabulous new glosses called Buxom Lips that are slightly plumping and smell like cookies
-LipFusion Not the painful lip plumper that you may have tried already, but more of a numbing tingle that gets to be addictive. The nbice part about these is visible results
-The Balm Every single gloss that they make comes in a different flavor and scent so they're yummy and slightly plumping
-Bonne Bell An all time favorite. On the sticky side, but yummy flavors and very affordable
Lorac lip polish (the past two Christmas seasons Sephora has had an 8 color gift set and I have purchaed it both years; different colors each year). I have a few full sized ones too.
Lancome Juicy Tubes are my fave. I wear Toffee Pop--really pretty, sheer bronze color from the (I think) Smoothie collection?
For non-color, no shine, just a balm for protection and healing, I prefer Jack Black balm in the blue tube. It is minty and feels awesome on my lips. 25 SPF too.
Thanks girls!! I cant wait to try some of these-Im not afraid to spend a bit,espically if its a good one.In fact I bought my first Juicy Tube last night (Touched By Light- a sheer beigey gloss with super pretty flecks of glitter).I think my next one will be a Chanel or a LipFusion. YAY lipgloss!!!
