Benefit I’m With the Band Lipgloss
The Spring Season: Benefit I’m With the Band Lipgloss
Benefit I’m With the Band Lip Gloss ($19.00) is an ultra shimmery golden peach pink mauve. No, seriously. This is one of those glosses that’s going to look just a little different from person to person, depending on your natural lip color. It has a serious gold shimmer to it, though, no matter how you slice it. On me, it’s a sheer pink color base with glimmering gold shimmer. It’s very pretty when worn alone or on top of a lipstick. Benefit glosses are on the thinner side, but you can get a surprisingly amount of shimmer with just a lil’ bit of gloss in this one. Their gloss is non-sticky, almost lightly creamy, and I couldn’t detect any real scent. Definitely one of my favorite Benefit lipglosses!
Is this the perfect gloss for you? Would you wear it?
The Spring Season is a series of posts featuring my favorite soft beige, coral, and pink lipsticks and lipglosses — all perfect for the first blossom of spring — that runs through March 2010.

I looooove this lip gloss! It is a very simple gloss that you can put on quickly but looks fantastic.I also really like the smell,it's kind of an appley peach smell. Does anyone know of a perfume that smells like this?
Hi !I finally broke down and bought this gloss - i've been wanting it since I saw this review back in Feb. I just couldnt get myself to buy another gloss but I found myself hovering over the Benefit aisle at Sephora and snatched it up! I LOVE IT! Its the PERFECT Spring/Summer color! :) Thanks for the swatches/review! :)
No prob! Happy to hear you love it!
sexy pink
I just bought this... and I blame you! (And put a video on YouTube) hehe. Its SO amazing, your swatches, and the way it looked on you - I had to buy it! Thanks for the inspiration :)
LOL! So sorry ;P
It looks just like MAC Nymphette gloss! My Favorite!
Gee!!! this is more than beautiful...I love it!!
This reminds me a little of MAC's Love Nectar - thanks for reminding me that I need a tube of that and also I need to reintroduce myself to Benefit glosses!
Looks like it would be good for layer over creamy lipstick. Do you agree? Which would you suggest?
Yes, definitely! :) Would be lovely over pinks!
Oh, I LOVE this one! I adore a pink gloss with a gold shimmer in. So very sexy. Just lovely. I want one! :)
I have a mini size of this one and I don't really like it. It's too gold for me. Also, I hate the smell: extremelly sweet artificial melon, yuck! But I think it looks good on you :)
Ahhh!! Thanks a lot Christine! This is definitely one of "my" colors and now I want it! Lol.
I have this, thank you for reminding me! It is such a pretty colour! :)
PRETTY! {swoon...}
Gosh I think I dont have to check it irl, so beautiful!
is it similar to the hello kitty lipglass she loves candy? thats my FAVORITE LIPGLOSS OF ALL TIME. i need a good dupe
Kind of :) I would say maybe 80%!
this one is really pretty! love it :-)
how would you say this compares to MAC viva glam VI special edition lipglass? i have been looking for a good dupe of that.
This is more similar to MAC Nymphette! Not quite as pinky as VGVI SE.
I'm in love!
gorgeous x_x
Ooh oh my gosh I love this! These are perfect for me. I love subtle colors and shimmer in my lip makeup. Gorgeous!
would u say its similar to mac's nymphette?
More intense, totally different texture!
This lipgloss reminds me of Lollipop Loving lipstick by MAC. Is that what it looks like up close or am I way off?
Kind of :) Doesn't have the green sheen!
