…they all look the same… I guess it works best over a lipstick.
Pictures don’t do these justice at all!
I would agree with that — they do look more dazzling in person, though the color is very dead on. The appeal of dazzleglass is meant to be all the glittering, which doesn’t take well to still photography 😉
Most of them are sheer, so they would definitely look better over a lipstick!
I love Date Night! It looks pretty similar to my MAC HK Nice Kitty. How do you think the two compare? Are they dupes or are they different?
I don’t think they’re very similar, actually! I think Nice Kitty was a little brighter.
love Extra Amps!!! Im soo buying it 🙂
Awesome, Iris!
Extra Amps is gorgeous! I just bought it. Good pick!
Glad ya like it, DC!
Okay I’m a little underwhelmed, but that is a good thing since I’m trying to save money $$!
LOL! Anything catch your eye?
Christine, can you swatch them over a lipstick too?
I’m sure I’ll be wearing them over the next few days so you can check ’em out then 🙂
Having done swatches before I know the strain it is on the lips and how raw they can get after every single wipe. D: So thanks for the swatches!! I got Steppin’ Out just a bit ago and I love it! It’s really hard to choose dazzleglasses because their tint is pretty subtle whereas it’s the shimmer that counts and that is hard to photograph!
No problem, Brigitte! And yep, dazzleglasses show up better in person than online. It’s just hard to capture it all!
Oh! And as a tip! Try funtabulous over Snow Orchid!!!!! Most gorgeous color combo! 🙂
That sounds delicious. Now I might have to buy Funtabulous…
If you have Snow Orchid, bring it on your lips or do swatches at a MAC… and you’ll see how the blue in Funtabulous works really well. Have fun with the colors! 😀
Funtabulous is one of my favorites!
They look so good!!!
Yayy! Which are your faves?
They all look the same. They are great over lipsticks.
They are nice over lipsticks!
I think they look the same too! I’m not a fan of Dazzleglass really. It reminds me “kid” lipgloss with all the sparkles and stuff…you know the kind you wear when you 12, lol. But yea, I don’t mean to hate, it’s my opinion.
They’re similar, but the color of the shimmer may vary a bit. Dazzleglass looks better in person than it does in photos, just because it is hard to capture all of the sparkle at ocne 🙂 But if you’re not into glitter, these are definitely not for ya!
extra amps and funtabulous look FANTABULOUS. haha 🙂
lol! Funtabulous is definitely one of the more pigmented ones, too!
the new one smile and the steppin out and love alert are my absolute faves! sad that cosmic blue didnt rerelease.
I never use my Comet Blue, LOL. I kept it just because it was blue!
I saw a pic of someone wearing Girl About Town with Comet Blue on top.. I was stunned! I could stare at that pic all day, such a beautiful combination!
Sounds gorg!
They do look different over lipsticks–Love Alert is really pretty over Port Red or Red She Said, or any other pinky-red lipstick 🙂
Yes, I’d say dazzleglasses are best over lipsticks, just because they are quite sheer. The glitter/shimmer is what makes them stand out 🙂
Yup! I do love them on their own, too, though. They do a good job of making your lips look plumper. Thanks for sacrificing your lips for the swatches, Christine!
LOL, sure thing, Elle 😉 Enjoy your dazzleglasses!
hi christine is there one thats similar to miss fizz?
Funtabulous would be the closest one.
i love baby sparks
Will you pick one up for yourself, Rae?
Thanks for the swatches! I am suprised that these look so sheer on you though. On my lips, Funtabulous definetely gives my lips a gorgeous purply tint.
No problem, Nicki! Funtabulous does give me a purple tint, but it’s not opaque for sure!
Christine, are the dazzleglasses limited edition or part of the permanent collection?
All but Goldyrocks, Stop! Look!, and Utterly Posh are perm!
hmmm…..
I have very pigmented lips and I get a lot more color payoff for these than you appear to be getting in these photos. The pictures aren’t going to capture that dazzle of course, but I think they look quite different on my lips (especially Like Venus).
I slathered all of these on, so I can’t really say anything to this. This is what they look like on my lips, for better or worse 🙁 Perhaps the pigmentation in your lips works with with brightening and giving you different colors than on my lips, which are paler/dead looking.
Thanks Christine! You’ve convinced me that I need baby sparks! (in addition to the other 5 i bought today lol)
How did you manage to swatch 18 dazzleglass’ in one day?? Do your lips hurt?
Which other ones did you snatch up, Abby?
LOL, it was a task of epic proportions, but I managed it somehow!
They are all looking very beautiful!
Guys, which ones do u think would suit indian skin (as in like light brown skin – haha)? (To be more specific British Asian skin ;))
My skin tone is on the fairer side of the Indian skin tones so it might be similar to yours, and I really like the more pigmented pinky shades like Love Alert and Date Night.
To be honest, I think they just about all will! They’re sheer, for the most part, so none will be so off in any particular color/tone that it wouldn’t look good 🙂
I’m wondering why mine feel so heavy on my lips. This is the first I’ve ever tried the Dazzleglasses and I bought 5 of them. I was a tad bit disappointed. I love the color but is there anyway I can tone down the heavyness? I love how they smell but I’m worried about how my love will like the feel of them.
