I noticed some of the glosses say "Coming Soon" while others say "Sold Out"
Wonder if just the "Coming Soon" ones will be re-stocked?! Hmmm

Piarpreet... Is that Impassioned lipstick or lipgloss you're wearing? I'm guessing lipstick? It looks great on you! I really need to grab this one!

yup! They're doing lipsticks that said "coming soon" first then the lipglasses. I'm waiting on Myth lipglass and I will seriously be done with Fashion Sets. Lol

Most of the time i just put on lipstick from the tube. I've never gotten the hang of lip liners, although i've been trying to figure out how best to use them for over 30 years.

And i missed out on the whole 'lip gloss-only" craze of the past 10 or 15 years. I do have some old gloss pots - from the 80s, i think - but they were horribly thick and terribly sticky, and i wasn't really crazy about dipping my fingers into those sticky gloss pots over and over. If anyone thinks MAC glosses are too sticky, they don't know what glosses used to be like - MAC's are a light spring breeze by comparison.

So glosses in the 21st c. were new to me. First i tried several DS brands and they were horrendous. Either they had the disgusting texture of mucous and wore off in seconds - literally! Or they were crammed with hideously vile artificial fruit and/or candy scents and flavors that made me feel sick. I dunno, maybe i just didn't try the right DS brand. In any case, MAC glosses are infinitely superior, as are the ones i have from UD and NARS. I can live with a little light fake vanilla scent.

As for lipstick and gloss together: My lips have a decent shape and fullness. But i'm quite short (5'1"), so while my lips look good to me "face to face" in the mirror, most people will literally be looking down at my lips. And from that angle most of my upper lip kinda disappears - all that's left is the curve of the bow. So i like to give it my upper lip a bit of a boost with some shiny gloss to make it stand out. Not sure if it works, cuz i don't see myself they way someone 5'5" or 5'8" or taller sees me, but i try.
