Sugar Coat
MAC Sugar Coat Nicopanda Lipglass ($18.00 for 0.10 oz.) has a clear base with iridescent pink and silver sparkle. It was described as a “clear coat,” which was apt, as this was really just a translucent gloss with a moderate amount of shimmer and sparkle. The texture was smooth, moderately tacky, and comfortable to wear as the sparkle spread evenly across my lips. Despite it having a nearly-clear base, there was some milky color that pulled into my lip lines so I’d say it was very sheer rather than truly clear. It wore well for three and a half hours and was lightly moisturizing.

Glitter Parade
MAC Glitter Parade Nicopanda Lipglass ($18.00 for 0.10 oz.) is a pale lavender with subtle, cool undertones and flecks of pink, gold, and silver sparkle. It had sheer coverage with a milky quality, but it didn’t seem to sit in my lip lines very much (and definitely wasn’t apparent at a normal viewing distance!). MAC did not describe this one as sheer, so it was significantly under-pigmented relative to the description of “high coverage” for Lipglass. The gloss lasted for four hours and was lightly hydrating.

Panda Kiss
MAC Panda Kiss Nicopanda Lipglass ($18.00 for 0.10 oz.) is a medium pink with warm undertones and multi-colored sparkle. It had semi-sheer coverage and went on evenly, while the plusher texture made my lips look rather smooth and plumper from the shine. There was moderate tackiness, so it lasted a solid four hours and was also moisturizing over time.

Dreamz
MAC Dreamz Nicopanda Lipglass ($18.00 for 0.10 oz.) is a muted, navy blue with flecks of lighter blue and pink sparkle. It had semi-sheer coverage, and while it didn’t apply as terribly as I expected, it was by no means even in application and sat in every single lip line I had in any and every directly. The texture was lightweight but on the thicker side with a moderately tacky feel. It lasted for four and a half hours and was lightly hydrating.

Panda Kiss looks so wearable, even with just lip liner. This is the one I may get, if any. The panda heads are cute, but bulky now that I’ve switched over to crossbody bags due to shoulder issues. Also, am I the only one here who looks at these and thinks of Pez candy?!?
Totally Pez…lol!!! Someone needs to make a combination lip gloss and Pez dispenser!
Wow ! I was going to purchase the lavender one but I’ll pass. Disappointing and the packaging isn’t worth it.
As part of a collection I tend to think that these shades are fairly ordinary and the quality is so so.
I bought Glitter Parade to wear over lipstick. I knew it wouldn’t be full coverage, really doesn’t look it from the tube. I also bought Kawaii Party and I think they’re going to pair well together.
