I tried em on my hand and i got one though i wanted more. I was very impressed with the color range and don't mind the dryness of the lipstick portion. The lustre gloss sides are definitely very sheer.

Just by the description, I was drawn to Ripe and Ready / Soft and Lush. And after seeing swatches, that's definitely the only one I want! Soooo pretty. I have never tried MAC's longwears because any other longwears have been too drying. But of course, I'm being suckered in by the color... damn you, MAC!

For a brief moment I was really into the Longwears because if you apply them right, i.e. apply the color andwait a good 60 seconds before applying the gloss so the longwear side can "set", they do last all day with no clumping. i also did not experience any dry feeling with them as long as I reapplied the gloss here and there, BUT that's too much work for a lipstick for me and I abandonded them. Of course the colors look so scrumptous I MIGHT change my mind....damn you MAC!

That's so funny, we posted at the same time and both ended with Damn you MAC! It's a universal feeling I guess!!

Hmm, how to describe the lipstick portion. Its not sticky at all, just super thin. When I say dry I don't mean like feathering matte dry, they just leave your lips... hmmm not slide-able? Does that kind of make sense? The gloss makes it all good of course.

Note: My lips still look pristine at 232 pm (i applied mine at 7am) Woot! This is after 3 cups of tea, a glass of water, one cup of coffee and breakfast.

I keep looking at the swatches and I'm so excited for Pink Air/White Top & Boss Brown/Slave to Pink... The swatches look gorgeous!
After reading a few posts I'm liking the Custom Rose too!!

Stopped by one of my local counters today and they had Starflash and Lustres both out. Initially I wanted the shadows more but was less than impressed. Then I looked at the Lustres and started playing. I ended up with Red Flame/Orange Flicker and Red Reflection/Mirror. Let me tell you...I LOVE these.

So to all my red lip gals out there (and I know that there are ALOT of us) stop by and play with these before just passing them up. Red Flame/Orange Flicker is HOT for a dramatic impact and a little something to get us primed for CoC.

i met the love of my life today when i went to the mac counter, and he's called pink air/white top. i wasn't expecting to see the lustre twins stuff today as i thought it came out in august, but i'm glad i did. i recently fell in love with the pro longwear lipsticks because of long hours at work and little time to reapply during the day, but most of the previous colours were a little too bold for my taste and line of work, so i was pretty excited to hear mac was coming up with some new colours to add to the product line. as i type this, i'm feeling a very serious need to go back and pick up the new and improved boss brown. the new gloss that comes with alta moda is dreamy, maybe i should get in on that one, too. OH MY!

I'm glad I'm starting to hear compliments on Pink Air/White Top... I was starting to wonder if I was the only one dying to get it!!

I was surprised to see that aswell, AudreyNicole. Such a shame, I think that a bluish purple like perplexing would be a great addition to the perm naillacquer line. Now I'll hurry and order one right away
