Along with the MAC By Request Lipsticks, MAC launched three matching By Request Lipglass shades!

The MAC Spring 2014 By Request Lipglass Collection is a nice follow up to the lipsticks in my opinion as even though the lipsticks are plenty pigmented all there own the addition of the gloss intensifies the shade and adds a nice pop to the finish.

Take a look!

Honestly, it’s completely ok if you want to skip the By Request Lipsticks because all of three of the By Request Lipglasses have excellent color coverage. Maybe you’re not a lipstick girl so this give your the option to own the shades from the lipstick collection but in a gloss formula.

Loves that!

I think the nice thing about this collection is I felt like I couldn’t wear Hoop as a Lipstick but as a Lipglass it’s amazing. This is a pretty rosy pink with a cream finish that’s highly glossy. It applies perfectly on me and lacks the weird chalkiness I got from the matte finish of the lipstick. Wear time is around four hours without fading and coverage was fairly opaque with two layers!

MAC Glam Lipglass is a bright beautiful cooler red with blue undertones and opaque coverage. I typically can’t wear blue based reds nor can I do cooler ones well since they tend to look clown-y on me but I adore Glam as both a lipstick and a lipgloss. This is a fairly opaque color and applies pigmented with a single layer in place and a wear time of around four hours on me.

MAC Pink Poodle was probably the shade I liked least because I typically don’t love fuchsias but this is a gorgeous shade if you love them. This is opaque on two applications and wears strong at four hours with a beautiful slightly shimmering finish. This is a shade that will go great with colors like Candy Yum Yum!

MAC Lipglasses are typically long wearing with a vanilla fragrance and flavor. They wear long due to the sticky, tacky finish. I always felt MAC Lipglasses were a bit too tacky but me but I’ve grown to appreciate it since that’s what makes them such a long wearing lipgloss!

Overall, MAC did a wonderful job with the By Request Lipglass range! These are shades you should own due to their great long wear and excellent pigmentation!

Love!
