    Oh my.. Ecletic Edge – I want it, right now!

    • Christine

      Friday, July 10, 2009

      Haha ;) So… get it! *enables*

        I am supposed to skip whole collection and yet, I find myself drooling over your swatches grrrr. Okay, one lipgloss won’t kill :D Thanks for enabling Christine lol

        • Christine

          Friday, July 10, 2009

          LOL! Which one? Eclectic Edge?

          • Natalie

            Friday, July 10, 2009

            Yeah Eclectic Edge. Wait… Doesn’t it look a bit similar to Shu 325N? Probably a bit more on lilac side but with similar pearls?

          • Christine

            Friday, July 10, 2009

            I would also like to say that I’d prefer the CK formula over the new/modified lipglass formula/tube. It’s just such a pain to actually *get* the gloss on your lips from the new square tubes.

            Thanks Christine!! You just un-enabled Eclectic Edge :D I am going to check out CK gloss though, so really.. your enabling is still in ‘process’ :D

            • Christine

              Friday, July 10, 2009

              I adore the CK glosses — really! I bought one during a Sephora F&F sale, tried it, LOVED IT, and immediately went to Sephora the next day to pick up three more — at regular price! (Which is the same as the new lipglasses, I think – perhaps cheaper!)

              • Natalie

                Friday, July 10, 2009

                Are they sticky? I am one of the weird ones that love sticky formula :D

                • Christine

                  Friday, July 10, 2009

                  IIRC, they’re not really sticky, but they are thick. I prefer sticky, too, or else they should be thick!

                  • Natalie

                    Friday, July 10, 2009

                    Oooh I like Shu gloss, which is a bit thin.. I will check out CK gloss on Sunday! Thanks Christine!

                    • Christine

                      Friday, July 10, 2009

                      Let me know what you think, Natalie!

                  I too love the sticky formula it keeps the gloss on for longer which i love

                    I know, so true!

    I’m totally getting Eclectic Edge & Nice Mixup. Love them.

  3. Heather

    Friday, July 10, 2009

    OMG i like them all but I LOVE Eclectic Edge it looks amazing!! Nice Mix up look beautiful too!!

    • Christine

      Friday, July 10, 2009

      Eclectic Edge is pretty! Those with even less pigmented lips will loveee it!

  4. ashley

    Friday, July 10, 2009

    i bought eclectic edge and it doesn’t show up the same way on my pigmented lips :(

    it’s nice but i wish i could wear it by itself and have it look like that! any advice?

    • Christine

      Friday, July 10, 2009

      You can try wearing foundation, lip primer, etc. beforehand to try and mute the natural color of your lips, that’s really all I could suggest :(

  5. Natalia

    Friday, July 10, 2009

    I was actually hoping these would be creamy with no glitter… I might still get Miss Marble though :)

    • Christine

      Friday, July 10, 2009

      Yeah… not so creamy. I don’t know, I am not digging the new square lipglass tube, and I am fearing they’re going to be migrating to it. :( It’s just awful for applying the product itself. I feel like nothing is ever on the wand — I’m THISCLOSE to removing the stopper so I can try to get more out.

      • Macaddict

        Friday, July 10, 2009

        Ahah! I was thinking the same yesterday!!! I can’t stand having to go at it 20 times just to get a wee bit of color on the wand each time! And I tend to reapply gloss sooo many times throughout the day.

        • Christine

          Friday, July 10, 2009

          I think I might try to take the stopper out and see if I can get more product on the wand that way. So frustrating otherwise!

          • cloudburst

            Friday, July 10, 2009

            I agree with you both! I was swatching yesterday & had to dip in 3 times to get a good swatch. I htink they should stick with the small cylindrical tubes, you don’t need big packaging if the product is good.

            • Christine

              Friday, July 10, 2009

              Not to mention it’s not exactly comfortable holding this square tube with slightly sharp edges while untwisting the cap.

          • binnie

            Monday, July 13, 2009

            I got some wands from teh mac store but also use a thin lip brush as it comes out better X

      • cmferrets

        Friday, July 10, 2009

        noooo christine! dont do it! i tried doing it to my tasty tricolored lipglass from sugarsweet, b/c i had the same problem ( no product on the wand) , then once i did remove the stopper w/ tweezers, i did get alot of product , but when i tried putting in back in the tube the product inside starting gushing all out , and got all messy. so in the end ,i ended up putting back the stopper. and returned my other lipglass i bought. i like these ones b/c atleast they are more pigmented, but GOD i hope they dont turn all their lipglasses in the squares.!

        • Christine

          Friday, July 10, 2009

          Ughhh, I just will never use these since they take wayyy too much effort to apply. I don’t even feel like you get any product on the wand! I look at it and it seems void of product!

    Crazy Haute is so going on my 2nd haul list!Haulted Eccentricity and Graphic Garden yesterday :D

    • Christine

      Friday, July 10, 2009

      Nice! What’d you get from Graphic Garden?

  7. Nicole15

    Friday, July 10, 2009

    Nice to see that these tri-color glosses ended up looking better than the Sugarsweet ones. I still passed on them, but they are very pretty colors for sure. As always Christine, thanks for all the swatches!!

    • Christine

      Friday, July 10, 2009

      They’re definitely better, but they’re not amazing. They’re not worth $18 each, either. :(

    Friday, July 10, 2009

    Crazy Haute Lipglass and Funky Fusion Lipglass :) are so pretty.

    • Christine

      Friday, July 10, 2009

      Glad you like ‘em! :)

    Friday, July 10, 2009

    I only got the pink/purple ones (top 4), but will be going back for Nice mix up as it’s gorgeous! :) Pretty pattern is very dull though, glad I didn’t order it. Thanks again! :)

    • Christine

      Friday, July 10, 2009

      Pretty Pattern was the least pigmented — at least on m lips!

      • cmferrets

        Friday, July 10, 2009

        true , prettty pattern and is the least pigmented , but it looks really good over madly creative- like a glossy mauve color. atleast thats what i purchased. i also got nice mix up l/g over made with love l/s, and miss marble l/g over colour crafted l/s .

        • Christine

          Friday, July 10, 2009

          I can definitely see those two working together! :)

  10. Kharina

    Friday, July 10, 2009

    Hmmmmm….poor pigmentation, horrible packaging, badly priced for its size….looks like I will be seeing these near my CCO in a couple of months from now. Even then I still wouldnt buy them ha! They R that bad IMO!!!

    Friday, July 10, 2009

    Ok…just got back from the MAC Brooklyn store. Left with Electric Edge (SO SICK!!!), and Funky Fusion to pair with Made With Love lipstick. I am sooo happy with these. They are so pigmented on my lips but without looking like “too much”. Electric Edge may be on my fav gloss list for sure.

    • Christine

      Friday, July 10, 2009

      Yayy! Congrats on the purchases!

  12. alyssamae.

    Friday, July 10, 2009

    oh no! these are all so pretty :( lol

  13. cloudburst

    Friday, July 10, 2009

    I know I’m getting Electric Edge but Miss Marble, Funky Fusion & Crazy Haute are calling to me now!

    • Christine

      Friday, July 10, 2009

      I think Crazy Haute and Eclectic Edge were my favorites of the six.

  14. binnie

    Friday, July 10, 2009

    i just got electric edge its beautiful! the other glosses were nice too very pigmented!

    • Christine

      Friday, July 10, 2009

      Awesome! It’s great that you like it!

          Sounds like you got a lot of good things, though :)

    Friday, July 10, 2009

    How does Nice Mixup compare to Vital Spark lipglass?

    • Christine

      Friday, July 10, 2009

      Vital Spark is a little lighter, less orange-y. More golden shimmer vs. copper shimmer. They’re both similar, but I like Vital Spark more.

  16. Cindy

    Friday, July 10, 2009

    WOW! I just purchased Crazy Haute.
    Is Miss Marble ANYTHING similar to NARS Turkish Delight? Or any other MAC Gloss similar to Turkish Delight??

    • Christine

      Friday, July 10, 2009

      I don’t think it’s that similar to Turkish Delight. I’m not 100% though, because I don’t own Turkish Delight – just seen it and swatched it long ago.

      I know Neutrogena Groove is a dupe for Turkish Delight. I think Underage and Angel Cream are the closest MAC dupes to it.

  17. Luda

    Friday, July 10, 2009

    I really thought Eclectic Edge would be good on me but it made me look slightly dead. lol

    • Christine

      Friday, July 10, 2009

      Oh no! I’m surprised – I thought with all the pink in it that it wouldn’t do that!

      • Luda

        Friday, July 10, 2009

        I know – that was my first pick from the whole collection. :( LOL

    Friday, July 10, 2009

    Do you prefer Vie Veneto d/g or Eclectic Edge more? Thanks.

    • Christine

      Friday, July 10, 2009

      Eclectic Edge!

  19. Leah

    Friday, July 10, 2009

    Hi!

    Do you prefer Eclectic Edge or Vie Veneto more?

    • Christine

      Friday, July 10, 2009

      Eclectic Edge! :)

      • Leah

        Friday, July 10, 2009

        Thanks Christine! That’ll be the one I get!

        • Christine

          Friday, July 10, 2009

          Perfect — enjoy it, Leah!

  20. Andrea

    Friday, July 10, 2009

    I wasn’t going to get any glosses, but I love Eclectic Edge! I’m gonna have to pick it up!

    • Christine

      Friday, July 10, 2009

      Awesome! I hope you like it, Andrea!

  21. Hanna

    Friday, July 10, 2009

    Thanks for the nice swatches Christine!
    Is Nice Mix up similar to my favorite Gold rebel l/g? or what about Queen Bee l/g and Eurobeat and Smile d/g+ are they similar to Nice mix up?
    Thank you

    • Christine

      Friday, July 10, 2009

      No problem, Hanna! Nah, it’s not. Nice Mix Up is more orange-y, little coppery in comparison. I don’t think any of the ones you mentioned are very close. It’s most similar to the HK orange gloss – I think that was Nice To Be Nice.

      • Hanna

        Friday, July 10, 2009

        Thank you.
        Hmm I never bought that HK lipglass but it sound to me a bit like MIss dynamite d/g maybe? I absolutely hate that one lol

        • Christine

          Friday, July 10, 2009

          LOL! Yes, I’d say they’re similar, though Miss Dynamite was a bit more coppery. Like Nice Mix Up is orange with copper tones, whereas Miss Dynamite was coppery with just a lil’ orange to it. But I am thinking if you weren’t feeling Miss Dynamite, you might not love this one!

    Friday, July 10, 2009

    I’m NC 43 and Pretty Pattern looked really pretty on me; it definitely showed up wayyy more pigmented on me than on Christine. I paired it with a Chanel glossy lippie (Panarea from the Summer collection) and with MAC’s Touch and its a really pretty nude lippie. And Eclectic Edge reminds me a little of Pink Pearl Pigment; looks v pretty over Sequin and Purple Rite lippies.

    Another thing, over here, the lipglasses with these collections are priced the same as regular lipglasses (which is SGD$28)

    • Christine

      Friday, July 10, 2009

      I’m glad it worked better on you than me! Weird that the price was the same!

  23. miss anna

    Saturday, July 11, 2009

    oh, prettiness! Christine, you made all lipgloss look so pretty on your lips!

    • Christine

      Saturday, July 18, 2009

      lol! Thanks, Anna!

    Wednesday, July 15, 2009

    Something tells me Nice Mixup would be incredible over Strawbaby L/S. I had no desire for these glosses but that is calling to me!

    • Christine

      Saturday, July 18, 2009

      I could see that!

  25. Cynthia

    Friday, July 17, 2009

    I have crazy haute too, but its much MUCH darker… Maybe you have more light swirl in it??

    • binnie

      Friday, July 17, 2009

      i think its a bit darker then Eclectic Edge Lipglass but maybe it can depend on how you apply it i tend to put a light plummy shade of lippy no 7 stay perfect lipstick in highland mist which is simliar to the Madly Creative Lipstick just gives it the rght shade! i want the Pretty Pattern Lipglass and funky fusion ! as i only just got the eclectic edge and crazy lipglass !

    • Christine

      Saturday, July 18, 2009

      Could be!
