Glaze lipstick finish

I never tried a MAC l/s with a "glaze" finish.

I usually grab lustres, because I love the soft and glossy texture.

Can the lovley Girls of Sprecktra tell me the difference between a lustre and a glaze l/s?

Which glaze l/s is worth getting?
I'm 31, NC 20 in studiofix, cold skintone, black hair, hazel eyyes of reference.

Got this from that thread above, it's a FAQ one:

Quote:

Lipstick
Amplified Creme - Traditional creme lipstick with a bit more gloss.
Frost- Slightly sheer, creme formula with a definate pearl finish.
Glaze- Very sheer, moistly shiny formula. Adds some color, layers well.
Lustre- Semi-sheer, has a natural looking sheen like recently licked lips.
Matte- Shine free, powdery to the touch finish
Satin- Traditional retro creme lipstick.
Sheer- Think lip-balm. That's it.

I haven't tried any glaze l/s so can't help you with that one, they don't have many do they?

I just got Gleam l/s and LOVE IT! It is one of my favorite and now I am going to be on the look out for glazes with the new collections. I know that Lure has one coming - the burgandy one is a glaze. I defintately plan to get that one!

I have Hue and I love it! It gives me the most perfect pale pink ever, but it isn't so pale that I look corpse like. I cant tell the difference between glazes and lustres.

i didn't like the glaze lipstick i had. it was bubble, my first mac product. it was a pretty colour, but i just didn't really like the way it looked on me. i think the lustres (on me at least) show up a little better and a little less shiny!
