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.
You wear Cherry Pop very well! 🙂
You look brigh eyed and ready to go !! @alexasteph Love that reds can do that so simply for anyone 🙂
@Buootiful Reds are great! There’s a reason it’s such a classic shade!
@alexasteph This looks great on you! That exact formula and color is my holy grail lipstick. I adore it. I agree Clinique is underrated. I swatched a few of the new lipsticks and they were great as well.
@sprocketta It’s a good one for sure! Mine is just a DS, I got it in a kit but if I ever use it up I’m defintely getting a full size.
Oh yeah @alexasteph. That’s definitely a good one on you. 👍
@jozkid Thanks! It’s a good formula. I keep saying Clinique is underrated.
Day 40: Tarte Tarteist Quick Dry Matte Lip Paint in Rose
This feels a little more orange/brown than rose on me, but whatever. You can maybe see from the photo but this does show lip lines pretty intensely. It felt ok to wear though, not too dry, but I also only had it on for 4-5 hours.
I can't believe I made it to day 40! There was a small part of me that thought I would give up or get really sidetracked, but aside from skipping a few days here and there, I've been pretty consistent. I am finding that I look forward to picking a lipstick on the days I wear makeup. It's fun to look at my collection each day and be deliberate about which one I'm going to wear since I won't "be able" to wear it again for a couple months. I am less likely to want to put on lipstick if I'm not going out because I don't want to "waste" the choice.
Anyway, I went through my (open) collection and have decided that I'm going to use up my one-off brands to make it to day 50. My problem though is that I only have 9. So what am I going to do on day 50? I'm toying with the idea of picking up a fancy lipstick (of a brand I don't have) that I have liked seeing on others during this challenge (cough, Pat McGrath), but that seems to sort of defeat the point of trying to use my stash. I thought I could maybe celebrate by using my absolute favorite color, but I don't think I can narrow it down. I'll have to see if any other fun ideas come to me over the next 9 days. Regardless, I'm so happy to be almost half way there and that you all have joined along for the ride. Thanks for making this even more fun that I expected!
Congrats on being halfway though that was a couple days ago now! I agree with the others about you deserving a new lippie. A reward for your dedication to the cause 😉 and for showing people like myself it is possible to progress in this challenge (I'm a bit behind lol).
Joining the PMG chorus... 🙂
I understand wanting to stick to using your stash instead of adding to it, @snoflakefaerie. I was originally going to do the same thing, but Lancôme and PMG did me in. Some of my new lipsticks have outperformed and replaced several others of similar shades and finishes, so they’re actually helping me declutter. That’s my rationale, anyway. So I say treat yourself on day # 50!
And I’m very glad I found this thread when I did. I may have started 28 days late, but it was right on time for my lipstick purge. It’s been very helpful and, more importantly, lots of fun. Thanks for starting this!
It's a nice nude on you @snoflakefaerie and I cant see the lip lines on you. It looks so smooth and creamy on you!
I can't believe it's already halfway thru the challenge for you. Time goes by fast. Thanks for setting up this challenge, it is fun and I highly suggest to get a Pat Mcgrath lipstick. You deserve it for this Mid-mark Milestone!!! 🙂 ❤️
@snoflakefaerie I don't see your lip lines at all in that photo, but to be fair it's not close. That's one of the things I dislike about mattes. It's a nice color on you.
I'm thrilled you started this challenge and I'm sure others are as well. Sharing it with others also creates accountability with others. Glad to hear you're enjoying it. Looking forward to seeing more of your picks.
ETA: You totally deserve a PMG lippie. They're worth it and the colors are divine.
@snoflakefaerie you totally deserve a celebration lippie! Pat Mcgrath is always great or maybe one of the Charlotte Tilbury Matte Revolution Lippies if you haven't tried those!
Congrats @snoflakefaerie! I think you deserve a celebratory PMG! Which color were you thinking about?
Trestique lip crayon in Saint. I got it at the rewards bazaar and never used it to this day. Now it might become a favourite!
Glad you found a new favorite because of this challenge! @Krysa13 I love your eyeshadow, it is GORGEOUS and the lipstick really make it pop!
Thank you 🙂 This is the only thing I own from Natasha Denona.
@Krysa13 This color looks so lovely with your complexion. I can see why it could become a favorite.
Thank you!
That is a gorgeous lip color on you @Krysa13! And those are some FUN-ky earrings — with the emphasis on fun of course. 😉
