welcome to 12 steps mac anonymous

hello, my name is shoppingisme and i'm a mac addict. however i have a confession to make - i hate lipglass!

esp. the clear!! boooooooo!!!

ugh!

it's sooo sticky and thick and makes your hair get stuck to your mouth and is like a fly trap.

and it gives you crackhead lips -- the build up of skin in the corner of your mouth.

and yes, i've exfoliated beforehand and primed and used chapstick and carmax and every friggin thing you can image to prevent it and everything else under the sun to get this stuff to work. this stuff just does not do it for me.

once, a little knat bug was stuck to my friends mouth when she had this on.

okay, that's all....

please, proceed to throw the tomatoes and chairs

LOL...i can agree with Lipglosses in general....so sticky and dries your lips out when they are already chapped.

hahah i completely agree! especially on the hair bit! i hate lipgloss in general, and most lipsticks, only thing i usually wear is carmex or burts bees!

I hate mac lipglasses too. (The colors are nice but I hate the formula!) Or sticky type lipglosses in general. Not all lipglosses are sticky though. There are lipglosses from drugstore brands that are light, non-sticky, last much longer than Mac's, don't crack your lips, and are cheaper too...

I don't like the MAC lipglass formula either. I don't even look at the LE ones anymore which is great because it's more money I can save for other parts of the collection. And the Clear lipglass is especially bad.

I am in complete agreement. I was walking from the parking lot to my job on a super windy day...only being outside for less than a minute when I walked in and my coworker said I looked like cousin IT since my hair was all stuck to my lip gloss. I like the way it looks but hate to be the one wearing it.

All lip glosses do that though.

But what I find odd is that the CREAM lipglasses are less stickier. I have Sock Hop and Electro-Lush and they are less stickier than my 50 other shimmery ones.

I HATE lipglass, too. >

Am I in the minority? I LOVE lipglass! I love that it's sticky.. because that's what makes it last longer. I mean, I'm a lipgloss junkie.. so I guess I expect it to be sticky. And GlamYOURus is right, the creamy ones are less sticky.

I'm with you darkishstar. I LOVE lipglasses!

Me, three! I hate that my hair get stuck in them, but I still love them! But I also don't get the dryness problem, either.

haha! i have a love/hate relationship with lipglasses.. love them because they look so gorgeous, but hate them because they're so sticky and thick and when i wear them, i can't keep my windows down in my truck because my hair flies everywhere and gets stuck on my lips! not sexy!

Love em'! The stickier the better for me!
