MAC products always generate a lot of excitement with our panellist and this was no exception. I can understand why! This lipgelee not only comes in fabulous colours but wears well on the lips too, making them very comfortable and moist without stickiness.

The sheerness of the product makes it appear very shiny with just a hint of colour, almost a stain. Applied over a lip pencil or lipstick gives the lips the most fabulous shine, making them almost glassy. I truly loved using this lipgelee and recommend you give it a try as well.

MAC - Lipglass, Lipgelee




This lip gloss is very easy and neat to apply. The slanted tube helps to get it on your lips and not around them. It is also a very smooth application. The colour was absolutely fantastic! It a very nice colour and very, very glossy, it gives you a healthy look. The texture of the gloss is nice and smooth, halfway between sticky and runny. Even when it was wearing off it didn't become sticky on the lips. Last about 1 ½ to 2 hours. Very pleasant light vanilla fragrance. I would buy all the other colours in the range.

I wore the gloss all day the first day I got it and it didn't bleed. I have used other products like this and found them too greasy and shiny, thus making my lipstick bleed. I think you have to be careful with these products when getting a little older. It was easy to use, easy to apply. The colour was great for me; I would have chosen this colour for myself and I will be purchasing this again as I think it's an excellent product. I would give this 5 Stars, great to use.

Personally I do not like lip gloss. Thus I gave it to my 23year old and she and two of her friends tried it and ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT. My daughter has worn it every day, its keeping her lips moist, has a lovely texture and colour. The colour is just enough to look like you have some colour on your lips. She loved the way it went on and the texture was the best my daughter has used and even the smell was lovely. This will definitely be repurchased.

It is a nice thick lip-gloss, but I found it hard to get a nice even spread onto my lips. The top lip was hard to get an even spread of the gloss onto. Not as easy as you are led to believe to apply to your lips. The colour looked very pink at first, but it faded into a nice soft pink and is very glossy. Overall it is a nice thick gloss but it can be a bit sticky on your lips and I didn't mind the smell.
Personal Rating: 1/2




Initially I thought that the colour was very bright and would not be suited to my complexion. However the "sheerness" of the gloss means the colour is more subtle once on the lips, so once I applied it I found it was quite refreshing and more natural than I initially thought. It goes on smoothly as suggested, with some need to rub lips together to even out coverage. It has a pleasant, soft fragrance. The texture is not as "sticky" as some other lip glosses and the gel means it is moist without that "sticky' feel and it remains moist for some time. I would purchase this product in the future if price was of no concern, however at $32.00 price was a concern; I would not pay that much for it. 4 out of 5 Stars, only because of the price.
