MAC Too Fabulous: Cremesheen Glass Reviews, Photos, Swatches, Lip Swatches
Cremesheen Glass is a creamy, milkier kind of gloss that’s creamy without being overly thick. Cremesheen glass is vanilla-scented and a non-sticky gloss that tends to be sheerer when applied to lips. I was pleasantly surprised to see a few more pigmented shades included in the launch (and now added to the permanent range, from what I have been told), like Double Dare. These are packaged in the lengthened tube like Dazzleglass, and they don’t contain nearly as much product as traditional lipglass and lustreglass do (0.08 oz. vs. 0.17 oz.) and are $4 more.
Update: Loud & Lovely review, photos, swatches, and so forth now included!
3/4/10
My favorites are Double Dare and Richer, Lusher! What are yours?
Cremesheen Glass ($18.00)
- Partial to Pink is a yellow-pink with subtle gold shimmer. On my lips, it looks like a milky baby pink with decent coverage but still a bit sheer. This is a repromoted shade.
- Double Dare is a slightly toned-down creamy red with no real shimmer. Once applied, it looks like an almost coral-red with a very glossy finish. Kind of makes me think “juicy.”
- Just Superb is a neutral pink that might lean just a smidgen blue-pink, but it’s fairly neutral. It looks a lot like Partial to Pink, but more muted, on my lips.
- Richer, Lusher is a creamy, peach coral. Despite looking so rich when swatched on skin, once on my lips, it gives them a very light, pinky-peach look, but definitely nothing like the tube!
- Fashion Scoop is a sheer, shimmered icy blue-pink. When I applied this to my lips, it gave me a paler, milkier pink lip with noticeable shimmer (this is one of the more shimmery shades of Cremesheen Glass). This is a repromoted shade.
- Over Indulgence is a creamy, kind of milky, slightly warmed-up brown. Though it looks rather brown in the swatch, on my lips it’s surprisingly wearable–it’s like a muted peachy-brown on my lips.
- Boy Bait is a creamy peachy nude. I know this is a favorite amongst fans of Cremesheen Glass, but it doesn’t do much on my lips — kind of a creamy look, but seems to emphasize my lip lines. This is a repromote.
- Deelight is a milky, muted plum. This looks very natural on my lips, because my lips are naturally a pinked plum with a little bit of corpse thrown in.
- Loud & Lovely is a brightened medium-deep pink that goes on semi-sheer–it’s not an opaque gloss (I was kind of anticipating coverage like Double Dare), but it does give more color than the average Cremesheen Glass.

When I browse the MAC website, I always pull up your site to look at swatches and I saw your description for Deelight, it was funny...your lips aren't corpse-y at all!. :)
"richer,lusher" was the color the chat line from mac told me was a good substitute for the superglass "gift wrap" color. I explained I wanted a similar color sans glitter.
what would you guys say is the best lipglass cremesheen, or any other lipglass, to pair on top of most lipsticks? something universal and versatile to put on top of other mac lipsticks. Mostly nude ones.
Hi, does anyone know a good dupe by MAC for Fashion Scoop? I LOVE it and am almost out but apparently it's not going to be perm where I am :(
christine, how did you get double dare to look so sheer and juicy? i bought double dare and its literally like a liquid lipstick on me!
I have deelight and it looks very pretty on me.. do you know what lip liner will go good with this color
Geez, look at all the neutral pinks. Way too similar to have together in one collection. WTF are they thinking? I have Boy Bait and Ever Rich Cremesheen Glasses and they are not pigmented enough for the price. I agree with previous comments. Just put clear gloss over a lipstick and don't waste your money on these.
i love this formula..i have finished two partial to pink and i am absolutely crazy over it!!!i have gazillions of lip glosses but these stole my heart and im ecstatic that they will be permanent!!YAY
Just bought Loud and Lovely at MA. It feels like butter on my lips and I like that the colour can be distinct and can be darker if you layer it on. I think I might put this over my Viva Glam Gaga lipstick...
hey christine...i see you got a hold of loud & lovely...yay... so what is the dif between it and petite indulgence? and thanx for the swatches!! it helps so much!!
Thank you for a great review. I have the two from the Holiday launch and was able to trim my list down by your swatches as usual. All of your hard work and time really means something to us, thanks again. I have been able to save time and money, myself, in product and less time wasted at the counter by your reviews and swatches alone! I mentioned your blog to the counter manager and she reads it as well which helps us find a starting point for my appointments.
I have the partial to pink, richer lusher, and loud and lovely, and by far the loud and lovely is my favorite although the richer lusher is pretty too it almost looks like that gloss on the Tarina Tarantino editorial on me but slightly on the yellow side instead of red side anyway I love them all its hard to pick.
Loud & Lovely and Double Dare are the only ones that actually show up well on your lips. The others are visible, yes, but they all look quite the same? Anyway, I don't like Cremesheen Glasses, to expensive and it's not such a great product. :)
Christine, I'm so confused! Are these permanent now or not? I have been so excited for these, because I thought I could quit stocking up on them! Please tell me they are here to stay...
I was pretty meh about these, but I went into the main MAC store in L.A. today to take a look, and lemme tell you, they make a gorgeous fresh look combined with the sparkly mineralized blushes. I tried out Richer Lusher over the nude lip pencil with Sun & Moon blush/Rhapsody in Two used as highligher and it really looked excellent on my pale cool skin/ dark hair/ green eyes. I wound up buying the blush and a few lip pencils, but held off on the lip gloss. I think I'll wind up getting Richer, Lusher and Fashion Scoop when I go back next week for Liberty of London, if the LoL lipsticks don't quite do it (or maybe even if they do!) ONE THING - they told me the Cremesheens are also LE, rather than permanent, as I assumed. I'm not sure what is up, but it'd be a shame if they were LE.
I just bought 2 fashion scoops.. because that is my holy grail lipgloss.. but the MA said that fashion scoop wasent going to be permanent... I hope she was not right lol
Double Dare I kind of like but overall I'll pass on them as I prefer a lipstick with a "gloss" over it and have a ton already.
Christine, Do you have any product recommendations on how to get similar lips to those in the picture MAC has on their website (of the two girls for "too fabulous")?. I just love light lips!
deelight reminds me of ample pink plush glass, plus there's plumper in plushglass ... plus it's got more product(over double)than cremesheen glasses... which are about as sticky as plushglass in MY opinion :P!!! yay
I read on another forum that Double Dare looked a lot like VG Cyndi. I looked at them together in the store today and they are very similar in color. To tell the truth I like Double Dare better.
is it just me or does the loud & lovely look almost identical to the petite indulgence from the cream team collection from last year that came out with lickable and lavender whip?? I am undecided on if i want richer lusher of if i should skip...i was hoping it would come out brighter than what is shown...christine do you think this is a must have?? Also, these are all permanent now right? So even if i want it, i wont really need to run out and get them?
I'd say it's a little deeper and more pigmented (at least on my lips), but they are similar! :) I personally don't think these are amazinggg awesomeness worth $18 unless you really LOVE the formula. As far as I know, all the Cremesheen Glasses are supposed to be permanent (the blushes and all but Chestnut lip pencils are LE!).
Thanks for the information Christine! I will save my money for Liberty of London next week then!! I am in love with Ever Hip lipstick and will probably buy 3 of them...lol Also, with comparing loud & lovely to the recent true babe lipglass from Riveting collection, which one would you recommend as being a better buy? I decided that I will get either one or the other since they are both blue pinks.
I love Cremesheens, I will be buying ALL of these! I have fairly small and thin lips that I don't usually like to draw attention to, so light and sheer colors work well for me :) I love Cremesheens specifically because they are sheer and non-sticky. And even though there is less product in the tubes, they still last a long time for me. These along with the cream-formula Lipglasses are my HGs!
Oh my poor wallet! I just bought all these colors and 3 of the lip liners! The lip liner that is nude can be applied almost like the lip erase to wash out your lip color! I'm in love with the lip liners!
I find it strange that you have Just Superb pictured so many times... but otherwise I'm really glad you posted this! Can't wait to see them in person.
