My Take on the product : 

I was in sephora store looking around for a nice lipstick. Generally all colors would not suit us and I needed a color which would suit any dress i wear and need to match it with my skin color. When I came across this section I found a lot and lot of different colors and Yeah I was confused. The name on this lipstick was French Kiss and I thought I can try this lol. I just wore a single swatch of it and I found it glossy and shiny too. It gave a beautiful look to the lips and I felt the lips moisturized feel. I felt that I have found the right one and just grabbed it. I wore this for day and even in evenings with two swatches to make it more thicker and glossy. I did not want to have a gloss on it as it was already shining. Be careful you don't taste it because it just easily goes for a little water on it lol :). Overall I loved the look it gave me.

Pros :

• As claims gives a glossy glow to the lips which gives a sexily look 
• Its easy to use and a gloss is not required on top of it. May be you can use a base before you apply this to hold for long time.
• It do moisturize the lips and i did not find any bad effect on lips after removing it.
• It will last for long because even a single swatch would bring a glossy look.

Cons : 

• I really don't have any bad cons but then the smell is mild but not so good.

I will definitely try few more colors from Rouge Shine.

Rating : 4.5/5 (0.5 gone for its smell which I did not like much)
