Syen and I were at David Jones a couple of days ago, when we dropped by MAC. Now I don’t usually go to MAC counters (not after my bad experience with them), but Syen was ogling at the latest MAC collection, Brunette Blonde Redhead, so I thought I’d check it out too. I ended up getting the Tinted Lipglass in Strawberry Blonde. This is my first lipgloss from MAC.

It’s a very pretty deep pink-red, with a hint of shimmer.

Without flash (excuse the dry patches around the mouth; have been having skin problems lately. Sigh)

With flash

It’s sticky, but not too sticky, which is what I like in lipgloss. Staying power is pretty good too. I’m thinking of getting the one in Quick Tease in the same collection, which is a gorgeous red-purple. Ooooh *rubbing hands together*

And now, for something a little off-the-topic from the Lipglass. I was looking at Ollie’s lipstick/lipgloss/lipbalm collection, and since she had fun shopping in her stash, I thought I’d do the same with mine too, just for fun.

And when I really put them all together, oh my … I really, really have to stop buying lipgloss from now on. The numbers are pretty shocking, even for me.

I have 33 tubes of lipgloss, and 21 tubes of lipbalm. And that’s only in the drawers. I haven’t even counted the lipgloss and lipbalm in my purse. The same goes for lipsticks!

That’s it. I’m on a lipgloss/lipbalm ban … for now. At least until I finish, er, one tube of lipgloss, before I buy another one.

Hang on, didn’t I say I wanted to get another MAC Lipglass a moment ago?

Damnit.
