MAC Cosmetics – Dazzleglass Sneak Peek, Part 2

Date: February 27, 2008 - Posted in: MAC Cosmetics

Remember when we saw Dazzleglasses available on eBay? Well, I purchased several of them out of curiosity, and while they seem legitimate, there is no way for me to know for sure quite yet. The packaging is new, which was expected of Dazzleglass (launching in May), so it’s even more difficult to determine if these are the real deal. As a result, I’ve been sitting on these swatches for nearly a month now, and I figured I’d share them as long as I disclaim that these may NOT be real. Since there’s that chance, I also am not going to be doing a full review until much later, when they actually launch.

Kiss and Makeup revealed official color information…

Comet Blue Violet blue
Funtabulous Purple with violet pearl
Ms. Fizz Bright pink with blue pearl
Like Venus Clean light bubble gum pink with red pearl
Baby Sparks Pale pink with violet pearl
Money Honey Mid-tone rosy mauve with red pearl
Rags to Riches Plumy pink with teal and red pearl
Date Night Deep plum with blue and gold pearl
Spanking Rich Raspberry pink with red and gold pearl
Get Rich Quick Warm yellow brown
Bare Necessity Caramel apricot with red and gold pearl
Steppin’ Out Clean yellow pink with red pearl
Glamour O.D. Bright coral red with red pearl
Suugarrimmed Milky pale pink with red, teal and white pearl
Pleasure Principle Clear white violet, teal and white pearl
Love Alert Raspberry red with red pearl

Looks like the eBay Dazzleglasses are dead on for the names AND color descriptions! This is good news and definitely adds to the PRO column for legitimacy!

I will give you a quick rundown of the texture/finish/overview of these, though!  They are less sticky than lipglasses, but a little more sticky than lustreglasses.  For those hoping for a non-tacky gloss, this is definitely not an answer to you.  They are all sheer colors, so don’t expect a lot of opacity or color, especially for those with pigmented lips.  There is a good deal of shimmer in each gloss, and the finish is a high, glossy sheen.

    Yay! I bought Baby Sparks from eBay as well and I love it, such a gorgeous pink and looks awesome paired with pretty much any lipstick! Funtabulous looks pretty too! Thanks for the swatches Christine!

      Awesome! :) I have yet to try them over lipsticks, even though that’s the only way I’d wear them, LOL.

    Wow those are really pretty! and fantabulous looks really nice on you but very different from the hand swatch, i didnt realise i wanted it until i saw it on you!

    • Christine

      Wednesday, February 27, 2008

      They sure are, Zoe! They’re all sheer even though they may look more opaque in a swatch :(

    thanks for the swatches! do you know if these are part of the permanent collection?

    • Christine

      Wednesday, February 27, 2008

      No prob, Clara! As far as I know, these will be limited!

    Super duper cool :) quite a few of those colors looks like ones I want. However, I am a little unsure about the VERY high glitter factor…and it seems like big chunky glitter….which isn’t a bad thing…just not sure I like that in a gloss.

    • Christine

      Wednesday, February 27, 2008

      They do reflect so very prettily, though. I would say the shimmer/glitter is not HUGE chunky glitter, but it’s enough that you can feel the grit of them from time to time.

    they’re all very pretty, can’t wait to try them. thanks for the swatches. they look like bigger tubes, are they really?

    • Christine

      Wednesday, February 27, 2008

      Tubes are bigger, but the plastic is much thicker than say a lipglass, so less product is in it.

  6. Pearl

    Wednesday, February 27, 2008

    They look dazzling, literally! I’m not so sure about Comet Blue though! But I think that Money, Honey, Spanking Rich, and Ms. Fizz Pleasure look purdee!!! I cannot wait! I love glitter, so long as it’s not too thick and sticky!

    • Christine

      Wednesday, February 27, 2008

      Comet Blue would look great over pink, red, and even berry lipsticks for sure!

  7. michelle

    Wednesday, February 27, 2008

    Funtabulous looks real hot on u! :)
    You’re like MAC’s angel… thanks for the great swatches/sneaks!

    • Christine

      Friday, February 29, 2008

      Aww, thanks Michelle :D

    I have the two lightest colors also from ebay, and I must say I really like them and wear them regularly, color and texture are great. But what really irks me is the size of the tubes. On the outside, they look larger than regular lipglass, but there is only a tiny amount of gloss inside, it is just a very thick glass container. I think that is just pulling the wool over the consumers eyes!! Obviously MAC thinks no one will notice, something like that really elevates my blood pressure!!!!! (rants and raves, pulls at own hair)

    • Christine

      Friday, February 29, 2008

      It’s so good to hear from other people on how they like these! It is weird, the sizing. Part of me wonders if it’ll change by the time they’re released in May.

    Wednesday, February 27, 2008

    I don’t know what this will look like on my lips, but Comet Blue looks so unique I’m planning to get it.

    • Tekoa

      Wednesday, February 27, 2008

      I was thinking Comet Blue or Funtabulous would look funky over High Top…

    • Christine

      Friday, February 29, 2008

      I know it’ll work for you! MAC launched a blue lipstick with C-Shock last year and people weren’t sure, but it was fun to layer with lipglasses.

  10. Pearl

    Wednesday, February 27, 2008

    Comet Blue might look good under certain circumstances, but on its own for me, I would look sick or dead. I wish I knew how to incorporate that color but I’m afraid I’m not that talented. It reminds me of the blue lipstick whenever C-Shock came out and it shows up Blue! I can do light green because it looks like honey on the lips, but blue, looks blue on me! It’s far from Halloween for me to benefit from that.

    • Christine

      Friday, February 29, 2008

      I agree that Comet Blue probably won’t be very flattering on most people alone, but with others, definitely.

  11. Pearl

    Wednesday, February 27, 2008

    That’s disappointing that the tube size is misleading. Nell, how long did they take to come in once you ordered them?

    • Nell

      Wednesday, February 27, 2008

      I´m not in the US, so I got them after 10 days or so, which is fairly quick for international shipping.

  12. Stacey

    Wednesday, February 27, 2008

    I wonder if they will be more or less expensive considering there is less product… like the slimshines…

    • Christine

      Friday, February 29, 2008

      I suspect they will be priced like lipglasses or like Slimshines ($14.50).

  13. Ariele Phillips

    Wednesday, February 27, 2008

    I bought Love Alert. It goes on smooth, but within 15-20 minutes, its even stickier than a regular lipglass, IMO. So that was disappointing. Howeverrrrr… I love the way it looks over lipstick! I’ve been wearing Love Alert over 40s Pink Mattene & The Scene from Stylistics & it is HOT HOT HOT! :) Thanks for photos of the others… some of them look very pretty! But because of the texture, I’m not too sure if I’ll be buying more of them with the full release in May…

    • Christine

      Friday, February 29, 2008

      That sucks, Ariele :( Does it wear better over lipstick for you?

  14. esme

    Wednesday, February 27, 2008

    when are they coming out? and how much are they going to cost, i hope not as much as the other regular glosses since they have less product in them.:(

    • Christine

      Friday, February 29, 2008

      May. I suspect they will be priced like lipglasses or like Slimshines ($14.50).

  15. victoria_m

    Wednesday, February 27, 2008

    they look gorgeous!!!

    • Christine

      Friday, February 29, 2008

      Definitely!

  16. rosa

    Wednesday, February 27, 2008

    oh wow, that color’s fabulous! :)
    can you do lip swatches of the others when you have time? eek!

    • Christine

      Friday, February 29, 2008

      Hey Rosa! I’ll sure try!

  17. MAC_GiRL

    Thursday, February 28, 2008

    WOW CHRISTINE AWSOME REVIEW!! AND THANKZ FOR LETTING EVERYONE KNOW THEY MAY OR MAY NOT BE REAL. WELL I HAVE TO SAY THE COLORS ARE SO CUTE! BUT, WAT’S UP WITH “COMET BLUE”… IM NOT SO SURE IF MAC WOULD RELEASE A COLOR LIKE THAT AS A LIPGLASS…BUT HOW DOES THE PRODUCT FEEL? DOES IT FEEL LIKE ANY MAC LIPGLASS?

    • Christine

      Friday, February 29, 2008

      My pleasure, hun! I’m happy to let you know. It does feel like a product MAC would make! MAC has released several blue lipsticks, so they would definitely release a blue gloss!

  18. Christine

    Thursday, February 28, 2008

    I bet my two cents that Funtabulous would look absolutely amazing over High Top!

    Tnx for the swatches!

    • Christine

      Friday, February 29, 2008

      That’s a good combo idea, Christine!

    • Christine

      Friday, February 29, 2008

      lol, awww!! When I do lip swatches, I don’t wear any other makeup so I’m not done up and it would look odd with a full face!

  20. Fei

    Thursday, February 28, 2008

    Wow. I honestly wasn’t anticipating purchasing any of these, least of all the Comet Blue Date, but Funtabulous looks excellent on you! I think you have me sold.

    • Christine

      Friday, February 29, 2008

      Good list, Fei :) I think Comet Blue will be popular for the oddness factor.

  21. anon

    Friday, February 29, 2008

    I’m not feeling them. Too drag queen/teen scream.

    • Christine

      Thursday, March 6, 2008

      Yeah? I think they’re better over lipsticks than alone, but I love me some lip gloss, LOL.

  22. Tans

    Friday, February 29, 2008

    Miss Fizz looks like it might be real similar to totally it lipglss from Fafi. Would u be able to compare them for me? Preferably on the lips as u mentioned the dazzleglass are alot more sheer. Pls? Thanks. :)

    • Christine

      Thursday, March 6, 2008

      It’s close, but IMO, not really a dupe at all. I don’t really have time to do swatch comparisons by request, sorry :(

  23. fridagal

    Sunday, March 2, 2008

    Hi, may i know what colour u used on ur lips in the pic shown? isit baby sparks?

    • Tans

      Sunday, March 2, 2008

      it’s stated on the pic itself. it’s called funtabulous

    Wow, those look awesome! Thanks for making the swatches and such!

      Thanks, hun!

    How did you get these from Ebay? These aren’t even available in MAC stores yet. Someone inside the company must be leaking them out illegally… tisk tisk.

    • Christine

      Monday, April 14, 2008

      I bought them off ebay, I have no idea how they got them.

  26. julie

    Friday, April 18, 2008

    if you dont mind me askng casue I got mine off ebay too what did your boxes look like?/ printed upc and name on box or the regular stickers on it??? Thanks so much and thanks for the swatches stunning they are!!

    • Christine

      Saturday, April 19, 2008

      Hi Julie,

      I believe the names were printed on the box!

  27. Nicky

    Friday, April 18, 2008

    I just think I should let you know that any of the dazzleglasses that you guys are buying online are essentially illegal. In that they have not been shipped to stores for stock purposes yet, aren’t made available to any artists within the company, and are not for retail sale anywhere. The versions of the gloss that have been given to artists, trainers, and the media are training samples… not at all packaged or boxed or etc.

    If you are buying these off of ebay I can assure you that their origin is either counterfeit (they are fake) or someone in the warehouse is leaking them out illegally.

    • Christine

      Saturday, April 19, 2008

      Hi Nicky,

      These are actually packaged and boxed – they are not marked sample or anything of that kind. The origin of the product is unknown, and I doubt it is something the seller would disclose truthfully.

  28. Nicky

    Saturday, April 19, 2008

    Exactly. If they are packaged and boxed it means that they were made by MAC at the warehouse. Because these products haven’t been sent out of the warehouse one can only conclude that these were stolen from the warehouse and placed on ebay by someone who works there. They do it all the time with Product Knowledge manuals, etc. There is no way to purchase these at all, in any capacity until the launch date, which is May 1st.
    Just letting you know :)

    My MA said that these are supposed to be reminiscent of a sugared rim on a margarita…very crystallized…something like that! LOL! He had me sold at sugared rim…I’m going to try to pre order tomorrow with him. He had me excited to see swatches of Naughty Nautical, but I looked at them and nothing is blowing my skirt up. I’m not sure what I want to do now. :)

    • Christine

      Monday, April 21, 2008

      Oh no, that’s too bad that nothing from Naughty Nauticals is wowing you :(

    wait so, they didnt come out with this yet?

    • Christine

      Tuesday, July 15, 2008

      Hi Gisele,

      These are out now!

    Wednesday, September 10, 2008

    Do you know if they’re ever going to release a second group of these? I’m sad they’re sold out everywhere except on ebay!

    • Christine

      Saturday, September 13, 2008

      Yes, they’ll be launching them again this winter!

    Tuesday, October 14, 2008

    I JUST RECENTLY TRIED DAZZLE GLASS AND FELL ON LOVE WITH IT. IT’S SO SHIMMERY AND GLOSSY FOR A EVERYDAY “LOOK AT MY LIPS” LOOK.

    • Christine

      Friday, October 17, 2008

      I’m glad you’re loving them, Missy!
