Another question... how long do the l/g normally last like how long does it take to go through one?
Liba posted in another thread not too long ago saying it takes her about 100 applications to use a whole lipglass. There are tutorials on youtube for how to squeeze every last drop out of one! For me, it usually takes anywhere between 1-6 months to use one up, depending on how often I use it. If it's a daily gloss, I'll use it in a month, if I don't use it as frequently, but still at least once week, it's 6 months.

As others have said, not just on this thread but I know Mac-Guy went into depth as well, but to paraphrase: it helps to not have too many opened at one time (this means completely unopened, no swatching or wearing 1 or 2 times). This way, the gloss can get used up without getting crayon-smelling and gunky. Not to mention, the applicators can get teeming with bacteria, so I would say, any changes in texture, application or scent are indications to put it in the back2mac pile!

These lipglasses have 7 minutes to show up or they can wait until morning for an order! I don't think these will sell quite as fast as the lipsticks anyway.

I LOOOOOOVE Hocus Pocus! It is my GO-TO grey! I have quite a few BU's of HP!

MB is nothing like HP. I can swatch them tomorrow for you.



Don't get it either. Did you do a comparison of Moth Brown with Hocus Pocus(do you have that?)? Not remembering everything you swatched with Moth. Any excuse I can get to not buy it I will take it lol.

Pixie and I were just discussing the release of the lipglasses.

Maybe MAC decided to wait until morning to put these online since the lipsticks sold out so fast. They may wait until the e-mails go out, at least.

Thank you so much! I appreciate it! :)

I just thought I'd put out there that a long time ago I had put some good swatches up of CoC lg. They are in the CoC swatch thread. post 22 if the link doesn't bring you right to it, it really is a pretty color

Doesn't seem to look like that now though.
