MAC Plush Glass

This might be a shocker but I have found my favorite lip gloss ever in the past few months. I got the MAC Plush Glass in Ample Pink last summer after the sales assocaite at MAC recommended it to me as a My-Lips-But-Better look to pair with dramatic eye makeup. Over the past few months, I have found myself reaching for it more than any other color that I own and the level in the tube is actually beginning to visibly dwindle...that hasn't happened to me in ages before. To add to the madness, I now go around recommending this gloss to everyone that is searching for a great lip product or something. I also have began handing it around to friends so that they can see for themselves why I go nuts over this product.

Here is the product description from MAC, "Sheer lip colour with a pearlized high-shine gloss finish. Comfortable to wear: lush, multi-dimensional. Gives a cool-warm, vanilla buzz to the lips. Moisturizes, soothes and visibly plumps the lips to make them look luxuriously healthy and well-conditioned. Contains vitamin E for added environmental protection". It has the traditional vanilla scent that all MAC lip products have and it has a bit of mint in it to add a tingle. The mint tingle is used to plump the lips but it is far from the effect of traditional lip plumpers. It just makes them a bit plumper to focus more attention on your lips without it being obvious that that is the objective.

Here are the shades that are available right now...

- Pretty Plush - extra-soft pink with white pearl

- Bountiful - richly pearlized mid-tone pink

- Nice Buzz - shimmery light gold with gold pearl

- Wildly Lush - lush, light, apricot

- Ample Pink - full, soft, rose

- Big Baby - peach with pink and white pearl

- Big Kiss - coral with pink and white pearl

- Fulfilled - full-blush creamy pink

- Wet, Wild, Wonderful - bronze with gold pearl

- Full For You - ultra-cool pink with silver pearl

- Posh It Up - pinked gold

- Power Supply - muted pinky brown with gold sparkle

- Oversexed - sheer red with small gold pearl

Ample Pink is the only gloss that I have from this collection but now I really want to get a bunch more of the shades. Here is the short list - Pretty Plush, Bountiful, Big Baby, Fulfilled, Full For You, Posh It up, and Oversexed.

The Ample Pink is jsut the most fantastic shade for me. I look amazing in it and the formula makes my lips look like full, plump pillows, making the male gender go gaga and stare at my lips. But without looking like I am trying for the attention. I really think everyone needs to run out and try this formula gloss when they next hit up their local MAC counter.
