Anastasia Candy Lip Gloss
Anastasia Candy Lip Gloss ($16.00 for 0.16 fl. oz.) is a bright, medium pink with subtle, warm undertones and a cream finish. The consistency was smooth, lightly creamy, but it didn’t feel heavy or apply thickly. It had nearly opaque pigmentation that covered the lips evenly for the most part. The gloss lasted for four and a half hours on me, and it was comfortable to wear. MAC Little Miss Mischief (LE, $20.00) is darker, more muted (90% similar). Urban Decay Savage (DC, $26.00) is more muted, cooler (85% similar). MAC Fearless (P, $20.00) is lighter (85% similar). See comparison swatches / view dupes side-by-side.
Anastasia Dollhouse Lip Gloss ($16.00 for 0.16 fl. oz.) is a bold, bright, medium fuchsia magenta with pink undertones and a cream finish. It was mostly opaque, though there was a bit of translucency in areas, particularly toward the center of the mouth. The gloss was lightly creamy, mostly non-sticky, and moisturizing over the four and a half hours it lasted. MAC A for Attitude (LE, $20.00) is darker, more muted (95% similar). Revlon HD Tourmaline (510) (DC, $8.99) is brighter (95% similar). MAC Candy Yum Yum (P, $10.00) is lighter, warmer (95% similar).

Anastasia Neon Carnival Lip Gloss ($16.00 for 0.16 fl. oz.) is a bright, medium-dark orange-coral with warm undertones and a cream finish. The texture was creamy, smooth, and light-medium in weight, but it had a bit of streakiness that did not self-level. The pigmentation was rich and just about full coverage when I applied it from the tube. This shade wore well for four and a half hours and was moisturizing.

Anastasia Papaya Lip Gloss ($16.00 for 0.16 fl. oz.) is a bright, medium orange with warm, reddish undertones and a cream finish. It was intensely pigmented and completely opaque on the lips. The texture was a little thicker than other shades, but it did not feel heavy or goopy either. The color spread evenly across the lips and wore well for just over four and a half hours.

Formula Overview
Anastasia Lip Gloss ($16.00 for 0.16 fl. oz.) is supposed to be “opaque” with “high-shine” that’s “non-drying.” It is one of the more pigmented lipglosses out there that has a smoother, more cushion-y consistency that typically spreads well across the lips. Some shades gather in lip lines, and some shades apply streaky; it seems more common with lighter shades and milkier colors. The formula is non-sticky initially and develops slight tackiness over time. My experience from wearing the formula is that they are often lightly to moderately hydrating and wear three to five hours. They have a vanilla scent that isn’t too overpowering nor does it linger once applied (I notice it mostly in the tube).

Oooh Neon Carnival is a GREAT color 😀
It is bold!
Candy is such a gorgeous shade, need it!:) I also love Neon carnival!!!:)
Glad to hear it, Jelena!
I’m kind of relieved that none of these are really calling my name, since I’m really not much of a gloss-wearer!
Phew 😀
I am also not a gloss-wearer but these shades are all so beautiful that I will give them a try.
Not my colors, but they are all gorgeous!
They are!
Ditto! Love these but …
Candy looks sweet!!! I really love it as it reminds me of a gloss version of MAC x Nicki Minaj VG Lipstick. A rare shade of vivid pink I can actually get away with!
In all reality, none of the 4 look bad at all. These are definitely some attention worthy lip glosses that have found their way onto my radar!
Woohoo! 😀
They really don’t make misses over there.
Very few!
I love Neon Carnival on you. Also, how aptly named!
Again soooo beautiful shades especially the two coral shades.
Omg i LOVE Candy!!!! And it doesn’t have any close dupes!!! Dang it. I may have to get that one.
I do like the first 2 colors if i ever have the occasion to wear them. ?
