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.
Aaaaand the fiancé wanted the spiced plum back. He says I look like Elvira. She’s Mistress of the Dark, not Mistress of the Light. 😂 I’m determined to make Daydreamer work by putting the right combo together. Maybe black? Any suggestions?
@divaknits Are you trying to completely hide Daydreamer while wearing it? Or are you just trying to tone down the brightness?
To tone it down, I’d do a soft ombré with a darker blue matte or cream bullet, or creamy lip liner, either of which I can softly blend atop that liquid matte with my finger. I did a quick and dirty version for this thread with a LORAC pale blue matte and my good friend, MAC Liptensity in Blue Beat. Lemme find those photos...
You could also top the entire light blue lip with a sheer lip topper that has a slightly darker iridescent tone. One of the Fenty gloss toppers (aside from the Gloss Bombs) would probably transform Daydreamer. An Urban Decay topper might also work, though I’m not a big fan of UD’s glosses. I wonder how Bite’s gloss toppers (especially Peacock Pearl) would look on Daydreamer? So many possibilities! 🙂
If you’re trying to hide it instead... eh, I’d just remove it before your fiancé sees it. 😄 I mean sure, you could cover it with a dark blue or black, or a dark purple... but if it were me and I really wanted to conceal a liquid matte lip color from someone, I’d just keep one of those little travel tubs of petroleum jelly with me (or one of the small oil stick makeup removers Urban Decay used to make; not sure if they still do) and use it to remove the lipstick.
I like Daydreamer soo much better. I have no idea what I paired it with. I just know it’s from Maybelline. I hope I did it right. Thanks for the idea @WinglessOne. I also couldn’t find Peakcock Pearl. Guess I passed it up. Crazy! Guess I’ll have to go find it. Order it. Something.
Oh and by the way, I think I have Peacock Pearl. If I do I’m pretty sure I got it at TJ Maxx for a steal I couldn’t pass up. Now I want to test it. Off I go back into my stash.
Nah not trying to hide it. I just want to find a better way to wear it. I think my Maybelline blue may mimic your Blue Beat. Yes I think I’ll try this so my fiancé will quit staring at me - and not in a good way. 😆 Bless his little heart. Thanks @WinglessOne!
LIP PRODUCT 2 out of 195:
Smashbox Be Legendary Lip Gloss in the shade Pout
I got this as part of a Sephora Favorites lip set a couple years ago,... I don’t know that I would’ve bought it otherwise. It’s a decent gloss formula, but a tad sticky for my preference and not very pigmented. Even though it looks like a light baby pink in the tube, it goes on somewhat clear. I will say this, it lasts almost all day so I do like that aspect. But overall, I think it might be time to declutter this lippie,... I have too many other pink glosses that I actually love. *shrugs*
@JessLess I feel like I have one of these lying around too, but in a bubblegum pink color. Hmm... it’s definitely super old though 😂
@cianni Yeah, I realized how old it was when I went to tag the product and found out it’s been discontinued for quite some time LOL
@SnugglePuggle94 Yep, they’re definitely different! 😂 Heroic looks more plum than berry, and not pink (despite bullet appearances). See, now you have to keep ‘em both. 🙂
@WinglessOne we’re a group of enablers here 😂😂
@divaknits I hope you didn’t have a reaction! I love love Bite products, and the smell is so good even tho I have 0 idea what it is 😂 spiced plum is so fun on you, happy to see that smile back!!
@divaknits This looks so nice on you. I only just tried my first Bite product and was impressed.
Very pretty, @divaknits! I hope it doesn’t cause a bad reaction because it’s a great color on you, plus Bite bullets are so comfy to wear.
@divaknits Spiced Plum looks beautiful on you!!
