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.
Another wear test today, and I think these might be declutters โน๏ธ
I wore one yesterday (forgot a pic though), and really disliked the color, but wasn't terribly sold on the formula either...so I pulled out a color I know I love to give the formula a second chance. Not digging so far...it's a bit too dry for my taste, and cracks pretty quickly. I'm sure I have similar colors in finishes I like better, so I think all of these may be hitting my destash box.
NARS Velvet Matte Lip Pencil in Let's Go Crazy
@RGbrown The color looks great on you, so that's disappointing. How many of the lip pencils do you have? Getting rid of a lot at once would be such a bummer.
@sprockettaUnidentified
I've got 9 of them. Thankfully 4 are GWP minis, but somehow I still bought 5 full sized ones without paying attention to the fact that the formula just isn't for me ๐๐คจ๐คฆ
@RGbrown What a bummer! Losing 9 lippies at once is pretty bad.
@RGbrown This colour is gorgeous on you! You look so fresh here, I am loving the whole kit and caboodle.
@NotCrockerUnidentified
Thanks so much!! ๐๐
Itโs too bad the formula doesnโt work well, the colour is so much fun and looks gorgeous on you @RGbrown! Iโm sure you could find a similar shade in a better formula โบ๏ธ
@bakeamuffinUnidentified
Thanks so much!! ๐
@RGbrown The color is really nice! I wonder if you can find a dupe.
@alexastephUnidentified
As many pinks and berries as I have, I probably have half a dozen dupes already ๐คฃ
@RGbrown That was me six months ago. I had dupes of dupes of dupes in the berry department ๐
This is such a pretty color on you @RGbrown, but if itโs too dry, then yes, time to let it go. Hoping you find a similar color that wears better. ๐ค๐ผ
Yeah, sadly, I think I have to let these go. Unfortunately I've collected quite a few of them, and Velvet Lip Pencils make up well over half of what little NARS I have, so it's a bit soul-crushing to lose that much at once lol.
@RGbrown, d'ohhhh!!! Is there any way to salvage them with a balm underneath or a gloss over the top of it?
@itsfiUnidentified
Eh, yes and no. Balm underneath doesn't help enough. Gloss on top...sure, it helps, but then it becomes pretty much like any cream lipstick I can get in one step from a bullet. I'd just as soon keep my lipstick simple. As many I have, I'm trying to be fairly ruthless with what I clear out. This one just hurts a bit, but I'll certainly survive ๐
Oh honey, thatโs making me cry, too. Sorry @RGbrown. ๐ฉ
Day 20. Anastasia Beverly Hills lip gloss in vintage. This was my replacement for my beloved Clinique gloss. It's not the quite the same but it's a really pretty pink so I like it.
This is a gorgeous pink, greatcchoice @sprocketta!
