I'm so mad, my MA was off the other day so I saw the display of these sitting in the back but I couldn't play with them since he wasn't there! Hopefully I can go this week and see what their all about!

one of my girls had glitter up under her eye! it stayed there all day and she couldn't get it off!

I decided to call my pro store last night to see if they had them, and the MUA scoffed and informed me that they've had them for a week already. When I went in, she recognized me as the girl on the phone and apologized for being rude.

Anyway, on to the gloss!

I tried on several colors, multiple times, and I couldn't quite place my finger on what it was that I didn't like about them. They don't feel gritty to me at all. They just feel sticky like the normal dazzleglasses. And yes, the glitter does travel.

The glosses themselves were pretty. I bought Tunnel of Love, and will have to think about Fab Frenzy (I already have a lot of berry/plum glosses). I wanted to love Disco Blend...but something wasn't quite right, so I decided to wait.

It finally hit me this morning: The glitter itself is just UGLY! The flakes are a great concept, but the COLORS are all wrong! They're all orange, green, and silver flakes instead of customizing the appropriate glitter colors for each gloss. They look horrid with the lighter colors, especially the nudes. The darker colors aren't as bad.

This collection would be so much better had they really thought about what color flakes should correspond to which gloss colors. Purple/blue/silver flakes would have been soooo much prettier and complimentary.

^ Thanks for the review. I wasn't looking forward to this collection to begin with. I just don't like chunky glitter on lips.

I may end up doing the same thing, since I know I love the Dazzleglasses.
If I get a Superglass, it will probably be just one, one of the deeper colors.

Yeah, as much as I wanted to like Disco Blend for a nude gloss, I'll just see if I can find a nice dazzleglass instead...and I do have to return something soon...I forsee an exchange in my future...

I feel the same way. I can't wait until the Superglass are available!

Teggy hit the nail on the head. It would have been so much better if the glitter went with the base colors. It could've looked even prettier.

Arrgh I wish I wasn't broke this week or I'd run to the pro store.

Shades are gorgeous but they seem to be a PIA. So no thanks

I'll be getting the 3 DGC in Alice + Olivia and a couple of Dazzleglasses to ease my urges
