For those of you who passed on the glosses, care to remind me why they're not worth getting? I'm still trying hard to resist Creme Anglaise, sadly, even after so long.

Because although the texture is lovely they are sheer, they are expensive, and they have less product in the tube.
If anyone wants a cheap alternative to the creamsheen glasses try L'Oreal Bare Naturale Gentle Lip Conditioner. Same feel of the creamsheen glasses in gorgeous colors. My favorite is soft petal which is a light baby pink.
Lately I am trying to find cheaper alternatives for some of these MAC products. With all of their releases it just gets to be too expensive sometimes.

Ok, I never knew that. I always accepted that they were just as pricey. I feel, um, cheated.

According the the new dazzleglass info on temptalia the dazzleglasses with the new collection will be $18 USD so they made a .50 jump in price.

I sure hope that won't be translated into even higher prices here.

Because I love them.
They're soft and yummy and the smell is to die for, and i love it how they nourish my lips. And the tubes are so god damn cute.
I really need a BoyBait back up

The tubes, I already have the dazzleglass ones, so I'm not missing out on it.
I haven't smelled these yet, I can't bring myself to smell the testers.
I just talked myself out of getting C/A, then I saw your post.
I'm considering Lickable now, but with me being in school most of the time, I honestly don't know how often I'll get to use that hot pink lippie.
Would love to get BoyBait for you, but I'm trying hard to save up for HK.
Does any other brand make similar lipglosses as these? Perhaps you can find a dupe for BoyBait that isn't LE!

Creme Anglaise is pretty!!! I want that one too

Awww you know what's it like - Boybait was marked as Hamsterglass and I cant bring myself round to use anything else instead of this one!
Product attachment - I haz it.
And with my silly lips being allergic to quite a few lip products, I am sticking to those that I know are safe. No money to toss aroundfor testing lip stuff

I will resist (or at least, try to)! Yes it is pretty, but it is almost the same color as my lips, so I see no color when I put it on. Does that mean I have a naturally pretty lip color?

Perfectly true! I just never knew others will like and use that name too and that Jeanette will even make me a Hamsterglass smiley. All that resulted in addiction for that gloss!

Sorry we contributed to your addiction, but I don't think we could help it.
When I see the gloss, I think of "Hamsterglass" first instead of "Boy Bait".

When I saw this, my reflex reaction was, "Great; I can get a backup!"
But then the sensible part of my brain, the part that made A in biochemistry, reined me in with the thought, "Carla, how often are you going to want to wear lavender lips, and how many MAC lipsticks have you ever actually used up?"
The answers to those questions: very seldom, and none.
So I'm saving my money.
The free shipping didn't exactly strengthen my resolve, but I've held firm.
Lavender Whip is still a great color, but that's no reason for me to stockpile it.
