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.
Thanks diva!
MAC Liptensity in Noblesse
Why is purple so difficult? 😥I tried this last night before bed; I had a little balm on my lips (but not much...I wiped off most of what I had on) and it was a patchy, streaky mess. Attempts to darken lighter spots just pulled more pigment off, and trying to smooth out darker areas was similarly futile. So, I tried again today after my shower, no balm, with a coat of MAC prep+prime lip primer. Application was...hmm, better...but still not good. It was almost impossible to get even, but I mostly did...but if I rub my lips together, it's a mess all over again. It settles in my lines and and just generally looks uneven. So disappointing. The hunt for a good dark purple continues.
@WinglessOne, this one is indeed way stiffer than the others I've tried so far. 💔
@RGbrown Dang it, I was hoping this shade wasn’t universally fussy. Mine is also patchy over balm but better on bare lips: I can get an even coat, but not nearly as easily as I can with other Liptensity shades. I don’t recall my old one behaving this way. 😡 Maybe I lucked out and originally got an oddball production—the one Noblesse bullet in a million that performed well. Hmm.
It looks great on you though! I’ll maybe do some dark purple comparison swatches and see if I can’t find a dupe recommendation for you. This particular blue based deep purple is very hard to find, but there’s gotta be one out there!
That color looks fantastic @RGbrown! Too bad about the application☹️
Gorgeous shade on you @RGbrown . Too bad it is a pain to apply. I would try some of the indie brands like Dose of Colours, Sugarpill and LimeCrime. I have a few purples and one bullet style I hsvent tried yet from Melt. I’ll let you know how it applies. Maybe liquid latex from Too Faced. They’ve all been pretty good.
Interesting how it behaves different from the others. It’s pretty though @RGbrown.
@RGbrown It's a pity about the application because the shade is gorgeous on you. Good hunting for the perfect one! 😉
Really pretty colour on you!
I’m not so sure about this lipstick with the shadow. It’s NARS liquid in American Woman (great color and formula, feels awesome). But I was just dying to play more with my new Melt Cosmetics Smoke Sessions Eyeshadow Palette 0.58 oz / 16.47 g
oooh the golds and greens and the glitter and the pigment! I’m loving this. Please ignore the shoddy application, my skin is sensitive today so I’m shying away from the eyeholes.
Love the shade @Weetart very pretty but I’m more obsessed with the smoke sessions palette. I want it and the Gemini one lol.
I like American Woman better on you than on me @Weetart.
thanks @divaknits , funny how shades work that way
@Weetart This palette looks so good on you and everyone I've seen it on so far. Green really is a universal shade. <333
