CREMESHEEN GLASSES


Top to Bottom: Fashion Whim, Chillin'




L-R: Fashion Whim, Chillin'



Around this time of the year for the past year or so, MAC has been releasing cremesheen glasses during the hottest time of the year. This is most probably because these lip products feel really light on the skin and are not as sticky as lipglasses or dazzleglasses, so these are perfect for summer or warmer weather. Dazzleglasses and lipglasses have their own fan base, but there are also many people who like the cremesheen glasses. They are softly luscious, not sticky compared to the lipglasses, and not glittery like the dazzleglasses. They have subtle shimmer that is not too in-your-face but still give a luscious look to the puckers.


Fashion Whim is a light beige that is perfect to wear on its own with a more dramatic eye look or with light makeup to suit the warm weather. Not quite sure if I can pull off wearing this on its own, but it's refreshing to wear this very light, non-sticky lip product.

Fashion Whim

Chillin' is a pretty shade, a light white blue that doesn't of course make your lips blue because it's pretty sheer. I love how it brightens my warm complexion.

CREMESHEEN LIPSTICKS:


Top to Bottom: All Styled Up, Jazzed


L-R: Jazzed, All Styled Up

As I had mentioned in a previous entry, I really love the finish and texture of this lipstick formula. It goes on uber smooth, pigmented, but creamy and buttery on the lips with a beautiful sheen finish (hence the name Cremesheen). I believe this formula is a cross between Amplified Cream and Lustre.


Jazzed

I am in love with Jazzed- a bright coral pink that doesn't seem too bright on my skintone. It really complements my natural lip color. This is definitely a staple for this summer.



All Styled Up is a bright yellow pink that I am not sure if it looks good on my skintone. I will experiment with lipglasses or dazzleglasses to see if I can tweak the color. It is a pretty shade, though. Just perfect for summer.
