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.
It is very light, but still shows a lilac color @divaknits and like you said, at $8 it’s hard to complain! Looks good on you. I actually haven’t bought a single one of these *gasp* I really like the packaging on them. I might have to pick one up next paycheck.
I think they’re worthy it @Weetart . I don’t know why I turned my nose up at these for so long. My favorite so far is the special Love Is Love red for Pride Month. I’d probably be in that one a lot if it weren’t for the fact that I’m still going through lipsticks for this challenge. I’d be done if I didn’t keep buying them. 😄
I think I have this one @Weetart very pretty on you. I like them. They don’t last the longest but I don’t care. Very nice 🥰 I think I have candied Guava and another shade too.
@Weetart I might be the only person who doesn’t have Glacé. 😄 It looks great on you! I like Bite Matte Crayons because they don’t bleed like many of the cream bullets do, yet they’re not super drying on the lips. This one looks creamy and comfy on you.
I don't have it either, @WinglessOne , I find Bite lipsticks hard to clean off without staining my lips.
@Girly2Shoes My method of removing Bite bullet stains: apply Vaseline, let it sit for 3-5 minutes, then wipe off with a damp cotton round. (My “cotton rounds” are reusable fabric bamboo/cotton blend rounds, but a disposable or paper towel will do.) If that doesn’t remove it all, I put micellar water on a round and hold it against my lips for 30-60 seconds, then wipe.
You could keep a pack of micellar makeup wipes in your stash for this. Garnier and Simple make good ones. 🙂 one of those wipes might be all you need to remove a Bite stain. Just be sure to gently press it on your lips for a minute before wiping.
@WinglessOne Reusable cotton rounds? Didn't know it existed!!! 😯 Which company makes that? Or where can one find them?
@MlleJuju I bought mine on Amazon. I found them while searching for a wall-hung cotton round dispenser. 🙂 Here’s what mine look like. The velour ones are bamboo; the terrycloth ones are a blend of cotton and bamboo. Both types are softer than a typical cotton terry washcloth.
If you search Amazon or Google for “reusable cotton rounds,” you’ll find many options. Just make sure they’re 2- or 3-ply and have stitching down the middle to hold the layers together. I rinse them after use and drop them into the mesh bags they came with (I keep the bags hung on my towel bar). I machine wash and dry them with my microfiber bath towels and workout clothes (no fabric softener; I use wool dryer balls instead) and they turn out just fine.
Thank you so much @WinglessOne for all the infos!!! 😊
It looks pretty on you @Weetart ! We’re lipstick twinsies again. I have this one. It looks totally different on me.
Hah! I bet your traincases and my hatboxes look very similar @divaknits .
Maybe it's the light, but I quite like this colour on you! It's more of a demure, natural colour, without going too pink or too beige. @Weetart
Oooh I love this @Weetart need to find mine. I think this was in last year’s b’day gift If I recall correctly. This is very pretty on you !!
Ooh maybe that’s where one of them came from @naturalooks15 . It is a nice color
Lancôme L’Absolu Lacquer in Sweet Mom. This is one of the 3 new Lacquer shades in Lancôme’s collab with Chiara Ferragni. I know next to nothing about Ms. Ferragni because I don’t follow “fashion/beauty influencers,” so I don’t care at all about the collab aspect. 😄 I do care about this shimmery color:
It looks screamin’ coral pink in the tube and on the applicator. I thought it was going to be a sparkly version of Energy Shot (a coral Lacquer shade), but you can see how it went more strawberry on my lips. Capturing shimmer is always hard in still photography but here’s another (failed) attempt in fluorescent lighting:
This one feathers more than any other Lacquer I own—not a ton of feathering, but enough that I should mention it. Within 2 hours, the glitter pools into my lip lines, creating a striped effect when I smile. Luckily, the striping’s not very noticeable unless you get very close to my face 😄 or look at my lips through an 8x mirror. Next time I wear this, I’ll use a liner or primer.
I also bought another of these new shades because I have no willpower when it comes to Lacquers. Might try that one tomorrow.
