This is the best lip gloss i've ever tried. The colors are phenomenal, and it smells pretty too. It is a bit on the sticky side, so watch your hair. Otherwise, it's an amazing product.

The hunt for the perfect lips....

Lipstick/Lip Gloss can be one of the most frustrating make-up products to buy, however when you find something you love it's irreplaceable. I was on the hunt for the perfect shade of red lipstick. I don't normally wear heavy lipstick so I found it very shocking when I tried on a bright red shade. Sometimes I think you need to ease your way into wearing heavy lip color - which is why I love this lip gloss from MAC.

It's called Lip Glass - and the name suits it because when it's applied generously your lips look very shiny and glassy. Since I couldn't handle a dark matte color, I like the gloss because you can aplie a small amount and then gradually increase it until you get to a tone that you're comfortable with. I bought it in 'Russian Red'. It's a very bright red. It looks great on but you have to take your time appling it because it's much easier to smudge gloss. I didn't find the price that unreasonable either.

MAC also has a great recycling plan. If you bring in 6 empty containers (ie. powder, concealer, lip gloss) they can recycle them and then you get a free lip gloss! It's a great idea.
