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.
Too Faced La Creme Lip Cream in Berry Naughty. It’s the only La Creme I own. I think I bought this last year, or maybe early this year, and I didn’t like something about it. Tonight was my second or third time ever wearing it and huh, now I have no idea what I hated about it. It’s very creamy and comfy, well pigmented, easy to apply, doesn’t bleed everywhere... I like the color... leaves a berry stain as it wears off... it doesn’t pill or get all crumbly... so... what was my problem? 🤔 Who knows. This is a keeper.
I forgot Nordstrom was holding their Fall Beauty Trend Cocktail Party tonight. I’d been upstairs picking up an online order and browsing things. I took this photo right before I crashed the party on the 1st floor. Hey, why pass up free cocktails and macarons? This lipstick held up fairly well to 2 drinks and, oh, a few cookies.
See that orbit of little bumps under my eye? My skin’s cranky about the combo of serums I used under my eyes yesterday. Looks much better tonight than it did last night, so I’ll give it another 24 hours to calm down before I do much else to it. But I did let a MUA try some Charlotte Tilbury Magic Away concealer on me tonight and wound up buying one, so I’ll get to test it on my own tomorrow. Hoping my skin doesn’t throw a tantrum over the new concealer. People always say “you have such nice skin!” And I wanna tell ‘em my skin’s an angst-ridden teen who hates change. 😄
Even though I am not into berries right now, it is a pretty shade on you and everyone else that wears it! @WinglessOne. Berries suit you very well 🙂
Thanks @Buootiful! At some point, I’ll need to swatch all the berries I’m keeping, identify dupes, and decide if I really need so many of the same shade. 😄 I’ve already done that with some of my reds, but it’ll be difficult with all my berries. And my purples. It’s surprisingly not as hard with my blues—emotionally painful, but rationally easier—because there aren’t as many good performing blue lipsticks out there as there are purples and berries. Brands need to step up their blue lipstick game.
@WinglessOne, "Berry Naughty" is berry nice on you! 😉 I think one of the great things about challenges like this one or doing a "shop your stash" is that it provides an opportunity to use lippies you passed over the first time (or just haven't gotten to) and sometimes, you change your mind. This color is quite stunning on you. Great that it held its own through a couple of drinks and cookies, too! 🙂
Thanks @itsfi! Now that I’ve tossed all my Too Faced Melted Mattes, maybe I’ll add a few of these creamy bullets in their place. 🙂
It’s a beautiful colour @WinglessOne and looks super pretty on you. Strangely enough I don’t own any of the Too faced lipsticks but I’m intrigued to try one.
Thanks @fatimamummy! I have some of their liquid mattes, but this is the only cream/satin finish (and solid bullet) of theirs I own. I may need to try a few more of these. 🙂
@WinglessOne Beautiful color! I have so many less loved lipsticks and when I pick them up again, I can never remember why they were forgotten!
Thanks @MissPuff! It’s always nice when a less loved lipstick doesn’t remind you why you stopped wearing it.
Sounds like you were in the right place at the right time, @WinglessOne😄
Interested in what you think of the CT concealer. Haven’t tried her line but but I imagine it’s time to do so;)
btw you do have great skin☺️
Thanks @eshoe! ☺️ I didn’t test the CT concealer today after all. I decided to stick with my usual so my skin would calm down—or at least not react more to another new product. Maybe I’ll try it mid-next-week.
Always better safe than sorry, I agree, @WinglessOne.
This Jouer High Pigment Lip Gloss in Champs-Élysées. It’s a nice gloss, smells good too! It isn’t sticky or goopy. I think this shade is described as a “pink chocolate,” on me it wears as a nice warm pinky beige nude.
Such a cute color and cute color description @alexasteph Mmmmm chocolate...
@alexasteph, this is a lovely color on you! How was the wear time for it?
@itsfi It’s a gloss so not as long as other stuff. I feel like I was reapplying every 3 hours maybe, and after I ate.
I like the description "pinky chocolate!" How could that be bad? It's lovely on you! 🙂
Great color on you, @alexasteph! Haven’t tried anything from that line yet but I keep seeing it pop up here. Must be good😉
Thanks @eshoe I only have three glosses, they were on sale at Birchbox and I was curious about the brand! So far I’ve been happy with what I picked up, a couple nudes and a berry.
