Hi BIC!
A lot of us have talked about our huge lipstick collections, and with the passing of another National Lipstick Day, I took stock of mine. I have about 200 lipsticks and glosses and realized, I only wear about 20 of them! So I'm challenging myself (and whoever else wants to join) to use more of them. I'm going to try to wear a different lipstick every day for the next 100 days.
It’s been a minimal look + red lipstick kind of day. This is good ol’ MAC Red.
According to my forehead, my skin’s not happy about one of two products I’ve been testing (either the bareMinerals moisturizing tint or Too Faced BTW concealer). Could be both. Probably the concealer, though. Bummer. I see a calming mask/cream in my immediate future.
@WinglessOne I forgot to ask earlier, which MAC formula is this? I really don't like mattes, so Ruby Woo was a no go for me. This one doesn't look dry though, so I'm curious.
Thanks @heartsmyface!
@sprocketta It’s a nice creamy satin, not a matte. I know what you mean about Ruby Woo: I find some MAC mattes more comfy than others, but Ruby Woo bugs me when I try to wear it. I think MAC Red is a better shade of red anyway.
That red is classic!! Gorgeous photo too! @WinglessOne
That is a pretty red on you @WinglessOne 🙂 I hope its not the Bareminerals tinted moisturizer, it's a great product
Thanks @Buootiful! I really do think it’s the BTW concealer. I don’t normally use concealer on that part of my face, but I wanted to see how BTW would work on oily skin—and my nose is the only oily part of my face. I have some minor skin irritation in a couple other places where I used that concealer. 😞
I’m undecided about the BareMinerals tint. The one shade that should work on me kinda doesn’t, though it might work in a couple months when my skin’s a bit lighter. I haven’t decided if I should keep it to try then or just return it now (or donate it). Maybe I’ll make myself a small sample to keep and then return/donate it. I want it to work, dang it!
I hope it works for you @WinglessOne@. I hate it when you want a product to work and it doesn't go to plan.
@WinglessOne This MAC red lipstick is beautiful on you! I hope your forehead clears up and that you can find the culprit! What is the name of your lipstick colour?
@WinglessOne Oh, I didn’t think it was it’s name! I just thought that the name was more elaborate 😜 ! Thanks!
No worries @keana1 It’s kinda like “oh, look at these MAC lipsticks called Ruby Woo, Hellebore, Punk Couture, Blue Beat, In the Spirit... oh, this one’s just called ‘Red’?” 😄
Thanks everyone! This is one of the reds I wear most often. It’s my favorite of all MAC’s red lipsticks.
@WinglessOneUnidentified Red is YOUR color. Perfect.
That red is super flattering on you @WinglessOne
@WinglessOne Gorgeous! This look fabulous on you!
Okay this thread gets the sultry selfie because selfies are d-u-m-b. Why do we do this.
Laura Geller Love Me Dew Lip Crayon in Plum Freeze. I love this as a transition shade to fall!
@alexasteph I can’t even take a selfie since I don’t even have a smartphone! I can only take pictures on my iPad and it doesn’t even have a flash ! Just imagine how awkward it can be to take a decent selfie with a tablet 🤪! Your selfie looks great and so do you! That shade of lipstick is gorgeous on you and I agree that it’s a great transitional shade. Your eyes are mesmerizing and those eyelashes are just WOW!❤️
@keana1 Haha, thank you! I’ve used tablets for selfies before too, but you’re right it is challenging. I don’t like using the camera anyway, the angle isn’t right so I use a picture app.
I like your sultry selfie and the lipstick color on you, @alexasteph! I can't manage a normal selfie (you should see the one I tried yesterday), so good job managing not just a good one but a sultry one!
