Re: i have a confession to make....i HATE and HATE and HATE....
I cant stand them either  They are far too sticky for me, though I have to admit their staying power is longer than others. I stopped buying them though - the tackiness is a real offput to me, it just feels revoulting, and I cant stand that hubby wont kiss me with it on! I have a few Neutrogena ones which although dont last as long are much better for me because I like the feel better, I dont feel like I am wearing a handful of cake batter on my mouth...LOL!

My boyfriend refuses to kiss me too! Especially with the new dazzleglasses coz it leaves a very glittery lip mark that he can't get rid of  Especially since he has a tash and beard.
Since the new dazzleglasses have come out I've totally sworn off lipglasses now, I find the dazzleglasses less sticky (thats just me though I think), they feel better on my lips too. When MAC make them permanent (and they will!) I might just sell my lipglasses and stick to dazzleglass.

Re: i have a confession to make....i HATE and HATE and HATE....
I've never been a fan of lipgloss for the reasons in this thread but I have recently got a couple for my birthday and if my hair is tied back i can just about tolerate them.
I've got a plushglass in Ample Pink and for a non-fan this is pretty much my HG

No..................NARS lip laquers are almost entirely lanolin and soften the lips. Fusion Lip Glosses also soften the lips,and neither is drying. Avoid products made of petroleum. Go for lanolin, beeswax,hyaluronic acid, collagen, etc. Sally Hanson makes very inexpensive glosses that condition the lips too.

Re: i have a confession to make....i HATE and HATE and HATE....
they ARE a bit too heavy, but it's true --the stickiness is what makes them last longer. i use drugstore lipglosses anyway-- rimmel and annabelle have excellent formulations.

I am talking about them being sticky, hair stuck on your lips when the wind blows type of thing. Some are more stickier than others. Not about how they soften or condition the lips or what not. lol

Well... I love lipglass. I better be buried in Ample Pink Plushglass! Haha.
I personally dislike Lip Gelee. And I have to admit that sometimes clear lipglass runs on me. ;__;

Re: i have a confession to make....i HATE and HATE and HATE....
I love lipglasses, but even more than that... is my love for 3Dglasses. I feel like a complete buffoon because I only bought one. I would give both my legs for 3Dglass to come back and be permanent. I know a lot of people didn't like them because they were sheer, but I absolutely adore the texture of them... so smooth and creamy. I really wish I had bought them all.
I like the texture of lipgelees, but when I wear them, the skin above my lip line feels strange, almost like I have a mustache.

Re: i have a confession to make....i HATE and HATE and HATE....
I LOVE Lipglasses.
They are soooo pigmented and pretty. The color you see is the color you get.
Yeah, they are sticky, but would you want anyone kissing that great color off your lips anyway? lol
Impress first, kiss later.

Yeah, I have Sock Hop as well and I just love love love that texture! But I'm not sure if all cream lipglasses are like that, coz 2N's also a cream lipglass but it's starting to feel like glue (sometimes it's kinda hard to pull out the wand, just feels like it's dried up or something), but people have said that it might've been a bad batch with the plastic smell...
And talking about stickiness, I'm sure the new dazzleglass is way stickier than regular lipglasses - I tried them on last time and didn't like it, but tried them on again today trying to convince myself to like them, but it was so sticky and drying that skin peeled off my lips!!

Re: i have a confession to make....i HATE and HATE and HATE....
If you are a true lipgloss/lipglass lover (such as myself) you will weather any storm. You will pinch your lips together tightly as you walk outside in windy weather to protect your gloss from errant hairs. You will find other forms of showing affection to your loved ones-an air kiss, a hug, etc. You will go to any length to make sure the shine on your lips shall not be affected by any negative situation!!!!

Re: i have a confession to make....i HATE and HATE and HATE....
The only lipglass I have is Style Minx and I love it. But I only use it really thinly so it's more like a stain and then I put a balm over it. I find it looks heaps better this way and isn't as sticky.

Re: i have a confession to make....i HATE and HATE and HATE....
I agree! It's so beautiful when you FIRST apply. Then, five minutes later it feels GROSS. And then ten minutes later it's gone. Not to mention, I can't even pull it out without my boyfriend cringing away from the tube. He HATES how it feels when we kiss..But I don't blame him.

No truer words were ever spoken in this world!
I could not have stated this anymore eloquently than you just have my Dear!!!
And, certainly, a woman after my own heart!
As I’ve been informed, by close intimate sources, that I have, at least, one tube of Clear Lipglass in every room of the house…just in case of emergencies!
Clear Lipglass is solely responsible, and, absolutely, integral to a lip color application I affectionately call:
“BOMB SHELTER RED”
...and it’s certainly not for the faint of Heart! What is it that they say, “A LITTLE DAB WILL DO YA!?!”
Coming Soon to a MAC counter near you…if you’re LUCKY!
