RIP Show Coral *sniff
Warning: Annoying girly/whiny rant.

Did I mention I lost my second-last tube of Mac Chromeglass in Show Coral (again)?!?!? :@ I had an annoying little voice inside my head telling me not to bring it that night because I knew I’d lose it and little did I know, everything was in my bag at the end of the night EXCEPT for my precious Show Coral. I was hammered out of my mind but I remember seeing my purse dangling on Boyfriend’s arm WIDE OPEN and I was worrying about my damn lipgloss— I didn’t even give a crap about my credit card and drivers’ license that was probably sticking out but I was too wasted to do anything about it. Now I’m only down to one more tube of this wonderful, limited-edition, retired lipgloss. Thankfully I just ordered one off eBay so I don’t have to face the fear of running out (yet) but I swear I’m gonna lose it again next time I decide to take it out with me… but how can I NOT bring my favorite lip gloss with me?
I’ve got to start looking for a look-a-like but it’ll be hard to find that “chrome-y” pink-coral shimmery shade with the same non-sticky, thickly-whipped texture and vanilla scent. Sigh.
Oh and the swatch above doesn’t do justice, it’s a pinker and lighter.
This makes me sad… I’ll have to go to the Mac store sometime this week so I can stock up on some Lipglass to cure this depression.
MAC’s Chromeglass lip gloss is ultra thick, ultra luscious. This formula layers lips with incredible shine and depth, with a rich, plumping effect. Show Coral is a tied and true peach with pearl and the slightest hint of pink undertone. The intense pearlized chrome finish creates an amazing depth and lusciousness for your lips. A great classic peach shade with a special kick only MAC can deliver!





Aww, I’m so sorry to hear that…:( I loved the chromeglass, I still have my tube to Uberpeach LOL!
To make you feel better, I know that Milani carry some l/g that look very chrome-y, I think they are called Glitz or something. I’ve tried them, and other than the annoying watermelon scent that fades after a while, they are VERY nice for $3. Hope that helped you a little.

I hate Mac because they have so much limited edition stuff that’s so impossible to find if you run out.
It’s hard to find any Milani products around here though.. the only place I can think of is this drugstore downtown and going downtown is such a hassle for me. But for $3, I’ll definitely have to check it out soon. Thanks!

It’s a sin not to bring it so I agree with you when you said that you have to be more careful next time.
Good luck!

I’m sorry for your lost =/

Aww I’m sorry to hear about your Show Coral. I’d be pissed off too if I found out my favorite lipgloss had gone missing! HAha forreal though.. forget about credits cards & identification!! What’s a girl without her lipgloss? Hehe.
BTW, you are wayyy hott!! LOL ;D

It looks kind of like Nars orgasm, but more saturated & sparkly (Nars glosses are sticky, though). Hopefully you can find a good replacement!

I’m sorry that you lost such a pretty lipgloss. So shiny & sparkly. Hopefully you can be careful next time & not lose it. That or find a replacement that’s amazing & not limited. Limited items annoys me for that reason too….

Aww, sorry to hear you lost it D:
I hate it when they do limited edition stuff! Why?! D: It’s only makeup~ I wanna try MAC lipglosses though, the colours are great and judging from your comments about them looks like I’ll definitely have to go and check it out!
REPLY
I felt the same way about M.A.C.’s “Pretty Please” lipstick edition, but each time I’d go to purchase it, they’d be out. So, I had to start searching for a replacement and NARS had it! Have you ever tried NARS? I promise, they are LOVE! I think you’d like “Orgasm” – it’s gorgeous!
ANNNND, ROFL @ you not even caring about your credit cards and all the other items in your purse – I’m the same way ha ha!
Grrrl, we need to get you help – you’re always loosing your makeup ha ha.

ahh that is annoying.
yeh i lost my trench coat the other day and that really annoyed me. it was a really good coat!
REPLY
Awww, I hate losing precious things. Usually the most precious things are the ones to always get lost! Maybe you should try to get a purse with a little zipper-pocket inside. That way the lipgloss won’t fall out.
REPLY
this is going to sound lame but how about attaching the lipgloss to something like a keychain.. or something fluffy… so if it falls out maybe you’d notice
like OH GOD THERE GOES MY YELLOW FLUFF AND LIP GLOSS BETTER PUT IT BACK

Sorry about the loss! I encountered a makeup sale post recently and the girl is selling a BNIB Show Coral.. here’s the link: http://community.livejournal.com/shop_vancouver/349013.html
