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.
@MissPuff Pretty! I've been curious about that gel formula--what are your thoughts? I saw a mostly empty, but brand new Shiseido counter at Nordstrom a couple weeks ago and may now have to go back and see what they have.
@txcatx The VisionAiry Gel formula is quite unique to me, I don't think I have anything like it in my collection! Goes on very smooth and slick, almost like a balm, but is quite pigmented with almost immediate full coverage in one swipe. It actually dries down after a minute or so and on me, doesn't transfer after the first sip of coffee and has a slight tackiness (not sticky, but not powder/matte for sure) and a satin/flat finish over time. Moderately hydrating, wears away evenly (no pilling), lasts most of my day as long as I'm not eating. It doesn't make it through a messy meal, but none of my lipsticks really do (apparently, I eat greasy foods 😏). The only con is that it's TINY. Not a lot of product for the price tag, but it's okay since I'm in L.O.V.E 🙂
@MissPuff Okay. I'm sold. Off to Nordstrom this weekend, haha.
Thanks a lot, @MissPuff! Sephora stores in my city don't seem to carry Shiseido makeup, but Nordstrom does. And all Shiseido was 15% off today, so headed to the mall and got myself two lipsticks--one on the gel formula and one matte one that Pony the YouTube makeup artist sold me that's been in my cart for a week or two!
@txcatx I looooove Pony! Most of the time I feel too american to pull off her looks, but darn if I haven't spent a whole day researching colored circle lenses...Her skin makes me weep in its perfection 🙂 Which colors did you get!?
@MissPuff Pony is the best. She and Tina Yong are the only beauty people I follow on YouTube. But then again, as a make up artist for K-pop stars, Pony is on a whole other level than your typical influencer!
Anyway, I got the matte in Disrobed because of Pony. Then I got the gel in Vortex, but Nordstrom had a limited number of shades available, and now I have to place a Sephora order...
Shizuka Red 223 looks so luxuriously moisturizing!! @MissPuff 🙂
@Buootiful It is quite nice, not drying at all!
Love the ModernMatte, @MissPuff, it looks like a color I would happily wear☺️
Thank you @eshoe ! I lucked out with Semi-Nude, none of the swatches appeared true to life but I sort of guessed how it would look compared to the other shades around it. 🙂
I did that with Disrobed, and it turned out to be a good match for me, @MissPuffIs there one from the VisionaryGel line you would say is a good nude?
Two colors worn over the weekend
Tarteeist QuickDry in Rose. I was a bit worried that the color was too dark and earthy but I liked how it looks in the picture. More importantly, it stayed on like armour throughout the day and lasted through lunch, dinner and ice cream 🙂
Lime Crime Diamond Crusher in Lit. I got it as a gift with some purchase and never wore it before. I really liked the bold glitter and the rather good coverage.
Both of these lipsticks are lovely on you! 🙂
Love the look of Tarte Rose on you! Even better that it stayed through lunch, dinner and ice cream! 🙂
That is that is some beautiful bold glitter, @Krysa13! Love all the bright colors on this thread. That tarte does not budge, that is for sure!
I really like that Rose shade on you, @Krysa13 Now I’m curious about how dark it looks in direct sunlight. In this photo, it looks like a perfect partner for your eye look and jewelry.
And man, I wish I could wear Tarte’s liquid mattes because once they’re on, they do not budge for anything. They’re too drying for me, unfortunately. But I’m glad other folks can wear them and take advantage of that staying power. 🙂
Tarteist lip paints are sooo long lasting. Love this color on you @Krysa13
BITE BEAUTY - Amuse Bouche Liquified Lipstick in Mauvember 2017. I just found this while decluttering, and I like it. I'm already looking forward to seeing this year's Mauvember lipstick(s).
Mauvember 2017 is beautiful on you! 🙂
The more of these Bite Liquified Lipsticks I see folks wear in this thread, and the more I hear about how well they perform, the more I think I should try one myself. This one looks great on you, @txcatx!
