MaxFactor Maxalicious Glitz Lip Gloss in "Guilty Pleasures"

Amazing holiday party color!  It's unfortunate that MaxFactor has been discontinued in the US, because this is the kind of color I could really see myself repurchasing.  It made appearances on both Christmas and Valentine's Day, so clearly I like it a lot.  It's a good sparkly red and it's not sticky at all!

Maybelline Shine Sensational Lip Gloss in "Cherry Kiss"

This is a decent, extremely sheer lip gloss.  I prefer a little more color payoff--I didn't buy something red just to end up with something clear!  However, you really can't go wrong with a basic lip gloss like this.

Sally Hansen Collagen Lip Lift in "Sheer Tranquil Toffee"

I have to say, I'm not sure if this lipstick is actually good for my lips, and it certainly doesn't seem to plump them, but this is one of the most moisturizing and easy-to-wear lipsticks I own.  The "toffee" color is more like a sheer brick red, but it looks nice, especially in fall and winter.  This is a good lipstick to wear to work, but you can also wear it at night too, perhaps with some winged black eye liner or a neutral smokey eye.  There is no offensive smell to this lipstick either.  I'm not sure if these are still sold in stores, but you can find them all over the internet.
