6 Shades of Cotton Candy Pink Lipglosses
If bright lipstick isn’t your thing, perhaps a gloss version could be! What’s nice is that they can also be layered over other, darker products to brighten them up.

Yes, I definitely agree that the lipgloss version of this shade is far easier for me and other more yellow or olive undertoned peeps out here to pull off!
Even so, I only own 2 lipglosses in shades even approaching this; Revlon HD Pink Sapphire and Maybelline LE Riveting Rose. Riveting Rose being truly gorgeous! Sephora Glossy Pink has been on my wishlist since last year, it at least has a *teensy* bit of warmth. So does Hourglass Ballet (perfection!).
Pink Sapphire is a fun one! 😀
They all look very pretty; I haven’t tried a single one! I’d probably go for the NYX or Revlon first since I usually like their gloss formulas. But the Hourglass lippie is tempting.
Good idea to try something easier on the wallet first!
I’m not much of a gloss person, but Scandal might be dark enough to look good on me.
I think it might be!
So much prettiness! I have Funnel Delight, Scandal, and HD Tourmaline (my favorite!). Rocket City Cool Your Jets in Frequent Flyer is a pretty one. I also really like Nyx Butter Gloss in Strawberry. It is really sheer, but it gives a pretty candy pink tint to my lips (which aren’t very pigmented; I don’t know how it looks on darker lips). Hard Candy Glossholic in Fairy is my favorite light cotton candy lipgloss with sparkles. The gloss itself is a very sheer light cotton candy pink, but the pink and holographic mega sparkles make up for it. It’s beautiful over pink lipsticks.
Love a holographic gloss!
MAC Candy Yum Yum and Pink Poodle
Nice!
I can’t recall if I have the Revlon one. I think I do. My lip gloss stash is much neglected.
Sounds like you need to wear some gloss soon 😉
I like Scandal and Glossy Pink 16 the most but really liked them all.
Yay!
I find that all of these glosses are clear bright pinks and not cotton candy, since cotton candy
is a sheer super light pink…like cotton candy.
I know that when I’ve seen it described by brands, it’s usually a bright, light-medium pink with strong blue undertones 🙂 Even when I look at pictures of cotton candy, the amount of pink seems to vary, plus it can get darker with moisture, so maybe that’s why we see variance!
