MAC Dazzleglass

I'm happy to report that my final exams are over!!! Hooray!!! So obviously I haven't done much blogging, shopping, etc. over the past few weeks due to the massive amounts of studying I needed to accomplish...But I did do a little! I couldn't help myself once I saw MAC's new Dazzleglass collection. Everyone knows that I love anything sparkly and Dazzleglass definately fits the bill.

Because it was finals time, I couldn't go to a MAC counter to test Dazzleglass out myself so I had to order online. For my first purchase, I chose Money Honey and Pleasure Principle. Money Honey is a mid-tone rosy mauve with red pearl while Pleasure Principle is a clear white violet, teal and white pearl. Although I love shimmery glosses, I was a little worried after seeing some rumblings online about worries that the glitter would be too big and gritty and that the stickiness factor would be off the charts. Let me just tell you, so not the case!

First, I have to say how shocked I was at the pigment that these glosses packed. When I first put Money Honey on I was blown away by the color. A very nice coverage without being too heavy...if that makes any sense at all. The glitter was not big nor gritty. You can definately see the shine and shimmer, but it didn't look like you took a bunch of glitter and threw it on your lips. It actually looks very natural. Finally, this is one of the most moisturizing shimmer lip glosses that I have ever put on my lips. I personally did not really feel any stickiness factor, but I have also been going crazy with Bare Escentuals Buxom Lips lately and the plumping factor in those lippies has probably made any minimal stickiness factor in any other gloss non-existant.

Oh, I should also mention that the staying power on these are fantastic as well. While it doesn't have the staying power of MAC Pro Long Wear (but really, what does???), it sustained a half a day of studying with me drinking tons of Diet Coke straight from the can and eating junk food.

If my review hasn't convinced you of my love affair with Dazzleglass yet, 2 days after my first purchase arrived, I ran back online and ordered 4 more! Yes, Glamour OD, Steppin Out, Rags to Riches, and Love Alert have all found their way to my bathroom counter. I want them all!!!

AS usual, this is a limited edition product. Boo!!! I'm hoping that MAC changes its mind and makes this a full time product. Until then, I guess I'll have to stock up on my favorite shades. I must warn you that MACcosmetics.com is already sold out of three shades. The good news is that, as of right now, Macys.com has them all in stock. Plus, Macys.com is also having Beauty Special.
