So I had been admiring the Dazzleglass Cremes for awhile, but I was hesitant to take the plunge because the regular dazzleglasses get used up SO quickly and at $18 a pop that's not what I look for in a lipgloss. I finally did buy a couple just because the colors from this collection are AMAZING, that, combined with the word 'Creme' suckered me in!
The two I bought were 'Perfectly Unordinary' and 'My Favourite Pink'...I love my pinks and these two were gorgeous.
The
Good:
-They smell delicious! The MAC MA insisted they had the same signature vanilla scent as the lipglasses, but I beg to differ, rather than just plain vanilla they smell more like vanilla icing!
-The shade range: Have you seen these in person? PRETTIEST COLORS EVER! I literally wanted them
all!-The container is super pretty, just like the regular Dazzleglasses!
The
Bad:
-These are NOT creamy, they are R.U.N.N.Y. (same exact consistency of MAC's lip conditioner)
-They smell good, but do not get them in your mouth (which is inevitable by the way!) YUCK! Just has a weird artificial taste, which actually makes me a little nauseous.
-The colors are gorgeous in the bottle, but if you have pigmented lips the lighter colors will look too similar once on.
-Once it wears off you will look like you ate a tinsel salad for lunch.
-These are too gritty for words...nothing like the regular dazzleglasses.
-I tried these over lipsticks and even though they lasted a *tiny* bit longer, 10 minutes is still not long enough to shell out $18.
-Did you see the pictures of them on my lips? They accentuate every line and flake!
I know these pictures are gross, but you
do want an accurate representation right?
'Perfectly Unordinary' (bright yellow pink with gold pearl)
I use this one a little more because it is more pigmented.
'My Favourite Pink' (light blue pink with pearl aka 'Silver flakes')
Overall I give this product a
D-Have you used these MAC Dazzleglasses? Have you had the same experience?

I have "My Favorite Pink" and I use it over my "Myth" lipstick sometimes and I love it!
It isn't super long lasting but I still like it.
I would give it a C+
I always wondered because at $18 each, it's expensive. Especially considering that I practically live for lip glosses! But they always get licked off and never last :( Seems like this one would go the same way...
