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.
Thanks @Anonymous Day 17 was a Naked palette shade, but I can't remember which. I used to be intimidated by that bright pink (not sure why I initially bought it) but it's perfect when I need a splash of color.
Wow! That's amazing you're now on day 17 of more fabulous colors @sprocketta! 😍🌈
@sprocketta,Im not good w/ colors but if your top was yellowy and had no other colors on it, then the pop of pink looks good! From what I can see, I like the combo on Day 17 🙂 ❤️
Thanks @Buootiful That makes me feel better about it. That eye shadow was totally out of my comfort zone.
Day 22: Too Faced La Creme Lipstick in Bon Bon
Please excuse the picture, I just couldn't get one to work.
I thought I really liked this lipstick, but it did not wear well for me this day. It's really emollient, which I forgot about and applied it on top of pretty moisturized lips. The color sort of slipped because of it and concentrated in my lip lines. I was running late for work, so I didn't bother to fix it. I still like this color a lot and will try to apply it differently next time. I'm not willing to give up on it, but I probably won't get different shades in this formula even though they are on sale.
Day 23: Tarte Tarteist Creamy Matte Lip Paint in Yaassss
This color makes me look dead and I love it. What I don't love is that all of the (full size) Tarteist lip paints I have leak oil. I have made sure they are fully tightened, and are standing upright, but like oil just seeps out of them. I don't know what's going on, but because of that, I don't travel with these in my makeup bag, so I only wear them if I know I won't need to reapply. Also, I think due to this oil leakage, the formula is changing and becoming drier over time. I was ok with that for the most part with this lipstick. It didn't over-dry my lips, and lasted really well. It definitely leaves a warmer pinker stain, but I also don't mind that. Also, I had 2 slices of pizza, beers and waters and the color was still sticking to the outer 2/3 of my lips, without bleeding anywhere. Pink stain left in tact.
I love Yassss on you! Maybe you just got a bad batch of the product? I have had that happen before.
@Anonymous it is really strange to me. I also have a few of them in mini size and some of them leak and others don't. I think it's just poor production on the containers or something. But you would think something that costs $20 a pop would be a little higher quality in terms of packaging. 😞
It leaking oil is weird @snoflakefaerie
I have 3 of them and they don't do it.🤔 Of course Yaaasss looks great on you :). I like the pink stain as it wears off too. It's like doing an ombre lip without the work!!! 😍
@snoflakefaerie Heh, I don’t think Yaassss is blue enough to make you look dead. (Then again, I don’t think most blue or purple lipsticks make people look dead anyway.) Definitely a great color on you!
I had the same leaky tube problem with my 2 Tartiest creme mattes. That plus the resulting formula change (the more they leaked, the drier the formula felt) annoyed me enough to get rid of them. If I’d had 2 clean empty tubes with better sealing tops, and I didn’t have dupes of the 2 Tartiest colors, I’d have considered transferring them to better tubes. But oh well.
Thanks @WinglessOne. It's sort of comforting to know that I'm not the only one who has trouble with these Tarte lipsticks. I'm not to the point of decluttering them, but I definitely need to remember not to purchase more, regardless of how much I like the color. It's not worth the chance of having another leaking one.
@snoflakefaerie, I love the Tarteist lip paint on you!
@snoflakefaerie Yaassss looks perfect with your hair. Sorry to hear about the leaking oil. What a bummer.
@snoflakefaerie “This color makes me look dead and I love it.” Hahahahaha!! I don’t think it makes you look dead but I appreciate the humor.

Didn't feel like doing much today so I just dabbed on some bare minerals pop of passion lip oil in Plumberry pop. I liked it, it looked like MLBB for a minute. Then, it separated and the color was gone in the middle and the color went into the lines, all within 5 min of putting it on. What a disappointment 😞 Enough said.

UD Vice lipstick in Bad blood. It's a great color but I'm spoiled with the liquid lipsticks and don't have to worry about it going all over the place like with lipsticks. Except for Pmg matte trances :). It was okay but the sides of the mouth bled like crazy/got into the wrinkles at the edges of lipline and got a little clumpy. Not as bad as the Laura gellar one, though. I have one more Vice lipstick and will use a liner to see if it's any better. I was just too lazy today 🙂
@Buootiful Yeah, sometimes Bad Blood likes to remind me how appropriately named it is. A liner should definitely help, and/or a lip primer barrier, which is how I usually get Bad Blood to behave. Hope one of those works for you, because the color’s great on you.
Thanks for the support @WinglessOneU and @sprocketta. I will make this work and might buy the full size later. It is a nice red:)
Sorry you had trouble @Buootiful I can totally relate. It's a bummer when a formula fails you.
Nice color, @Buootiful, but not worth it if it only causes you grief🙄 If it is any consolation, it looks greasy on you!
Hahahahahaha, rofl yes, greasy @eshoe. ❤️ I was slurping beef noodle soup when I was wearing it 🙂 🙂
I am dying inside right now.....you are so gracious, @Buootiful. It does not look greasy at all. Holy cow, I am shirking away with my tail between my legs. So sorry.
AHHHHHHHH I did not mean to type greasy, @Buootiful, it was supposed to say great!!!!!!!😂😂😂😂😂😂 Horrified I am seeing this almost a day later😰so, so sorry!!!!
