Oyster Girl lipglass is a gorgeous, sheer pearly pink lipglass. It’s really the way the shimmer gives off a lot of pearl sheen that makes this gloss a must-have. It layers well over both light and dark lipglasses.

C-Thru lipglass is an absolute must if you love a glossy, beige-to-nude lip. It’s a creamy concoction of light, pale beige.

Underage lipglass is similar to C-Thru lipglass, only it’s a sheer, soft pink with just a touch of shimmer. If you want a little more of a fleshy, pink nude lip, opt for this!

Cultured lipglass is a semi-sheer pink with purplish tones with shimmer that reflects both pink and almost a frosty silver.

Nymphette lipglass is a shimmery, lightly pink toned gloss with golden reflection in it. It’s incredibly flattering on lips alone, or layered with a lipstick.

Russian Red lipglass is a bright, creamy red. It’s really the lipgloss equal of MAC’s Russian Red lipstick.

Lychee Luxe lipglass is a coral-orange shimmery shade of gloss. It’s one of the few coral glosses MAC has, and it is definitely a reliable old favorite.

Desire lipglass is a deep, creamy reddish-burgundy shade. It’s on the vampy side, which makes it an excellent gloss for pairing with a deep lipstick or adding more depth to a sheer, lighter lipstick.

Pink Poodle lipglass is a shimmery confection of bright pink. It’s fairly sheer, so don’t worry about it being too bright on your lips. It’s a great pink, and it is one of my favorite ways to brighten up a sheer, lustre finish lipstick.
