i dont hate them or think that they are Gross.So glad I'm not alone in not liking glosses. I was sure I was. I think DILLIGAF is the same as well, but so many love glosses and I was here like "No, I hate them. Gross." all by myself.
I just never get to use them, i prefer lipticks but i found out too late. i already had 10

My biggest issue was I used to be a smoker. Gloss would get on the cigarette and be sticky on my fingers, which I just can't handle. Too OCD about my hands.So glad I'm not alone in not liking glosses. I was sure I was. I think DILLIGAF is the same as well, but so many love glosses and I was here like "No, I hate them.

I've quit smoking cigs but I'm on the e-cigs.. so I still get the nicotine but none of the nasty smell etc. Vanilla is my favourite flavour and they helped me go from nearly 40 a day to 0 over night. Saves me so much money, too.
Like Jaymuhlee said though, long hair and lipgloss in wind = no go. Plus, I hate how sticky they are. Lip balm and lip stick all the way for me. Though, I won't object to a liquid lipstick so long as it doesn't stay glossy like a lipgloss.

did anyone buy seducing sound lipglass? it seems to be the super secret hidden color. either no one likes it or everyone is hiding it's swatches so they can hoard them

I'm done with this.
Though I am going to be calling MAC tomorrow to complain about Enchanted One l/s not being in my order. It was Sold Out but then back in stock, so I ordered it. It didn't show up and wasn't on the packing slip even though I paid for it and no refund has been processed, nor a notification of one going to be processed.
They can either send the lipstick or cough up the money.
Also has anyone else been getting a lot of samples in their orders?
My past few orders I've received 3x zoom lash mascara samples and 2x skin visage samples.

I didn't think MAC even sent samples, but in the UK I've been getting 1 with every order, sometimes 2. Which is ridiculous. I'll never need to buy a full Zoom Lash as I have 3 samples that'll last a decent length of time.
I'm not complaining about the Skin Visage though - I wanted to try it anyway so having 2 small tubes of it is plenty to let me see if it's worth purchasing.

i received a tiny sample of an eye makeup remover once. i didn't think they sent samples at all, so i was surprised. i didn't get anything else after that though!

I think I'm going for the purple, olive green, & lighter green EDES, maybe one lipglass (the light one w/sparkles or the deep purple), and perhaps 2 lippies (mystical and gots). Lots of goodies in this collection!!! Lip glasses can be so sticky but I love a good sparkle lip glass!

Welcome to specktra! You're going to love it here 
thanks for the swatches! Teal polish looks like an exact dupe of the teal in the Ariel polish set which I have. So I'll be passing on it. I love the color though! Yay I knew this was going to be beautiful. Going to look so good with vampy lippies

Modern Lure - check out that sexy pink shimmer:
in normal daylight - the photo seriously doesn't show how rich and plummy the colour is, no matter how much i tried to adjust my cameraphone's settings to accurately depict the colour :shrugs: :
close-up with flash :
this is a beautifully deep, rich colour that is awesome for vampy looks. gonna post a pic of what it looks like with GotS underneath

I think it's probably just a case of if they're trying to push something or if they have them. I don't think it has to be anything special.I didn't think MAC even sent samples, but in the UK I've been getting 1 with every order, sometimes 2. Which is ridiculous.

Oooh, that'd be nice! Though I do have the Pro make-up remover which is nice for fixing mistakes. I love samples, though. Especially when they're not in sachets so you can actually close the product back up.

it was in a little purple vial. it was actually quite cute too!
i save sample containers from sephora, lush etc, so when i get samples in sachets, i put them into those containers. another odd little thing that works are flat contact lens cases- i always end up with a few of those, and i use a different system to store my lenses, so they work as sample pots.
