Did you ever invest in the MAC Dazzleglass collection? I did - I'm not too afraid to say it. I'm a huge lip gloss junkie. But boy did my wallet hurt after I took those puppies home! I feel a little bit of regret, but I'm glad they're sold out now so I won't be tempted anymore.
Have you been looking for a budget alternative? Smart and thrifty girls know there's one for everything - and I've come to share a product I love that might fit the bill.
Sally Hansen Lipnotic Gem Gloss is the closest thing to MAC Dazzleglass I've seen yet... and you know I've tried a lot of products. It's not only high-shine and glossy, but intensely sparkly as well. The multi-colored glitter is what really makes it comparable to Dazzleglass, which had the most unique, intense multi-faceted shine and shimmer. They also have a very similar thickness and consistency. While these glosses aren't exactly alike, they come darn close! I'm currently wearing Bejeweled, a sheer, light coral color that goes with everything.
Lipnotic Gem Glosses are available in 10 beautiful, wearable, shining shades, from shimmery clear to a deep, dark plum. They are oh-so-lightly pigmented, but the shimmer and sparkle is what you're after, and they deliver just that, along with nourishing and conditioning benefits of botanicals and vitamins.
So while MAC Dazzleglass may be sold out and hard to find, you can count on Sally Hansen to have the next best thing for women on a budget - each gloss is around $6.99! Fabulous, right?

wow they do look really similar! do you know if they have similar colors too? i didn't get any dazzleglasses when they launched cuz i couldn't justify spending so much money on a l/g :(
Lily, there are definitely a few similar colors! If you'd like, I'll go and compare some when I buy more and see if there are any matches. I'll have to check other people's swatches too, because I didn't personally buy all the lipglasses.
ohh both lipglosses looks sooo cute! I can't choose one coz you gotta have both colors right? one pinkish and one peachy! I love it :)
They're both really cute!! :) But the Sally Hansen line has lots of pinks, too, which is why I'd choose them for the price. Obviously MAC is a little better, but they're very close!
If you didn't label those I'd have thought they were from the same brand. So pretty! I'm happy right now with a tube of L'Oreal HIP brilliant shine lip gloss so I'm not in the market for anything new...Like what you reviewed, the HIP gloss has a lot of sparkle. It normally goes for about $9 but isn't too hard to find on sale at the drug store if you wait for a promo period, making it even more affordable.
oooohhhh...they look really similar! I am almost out of one of two colors I bought...I may have to run out and get one of these to try...thanks for the info!!!
