Readers' Choice: Your Top Ten Favorite Lip Glosses

We recently asked our readers which beauty product they never leave home without; and you answered with a resounding "lip gloss!" We weren't surprised. Gloss inspires all kinds of emotions in women: Nostalgia (no doubt you remember the exact brand you wore during your first kiss), comfort (ever reached for gloss before a tense meeting with your boss?) and, above all else, loyalty.

After sifting through hundreds of passionate responses, we settled on ten clear front-runners. Without further adieu, here are your most beloved lip glosses of all time!
