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.
@RGbrown Nice! I almost bought an Uoma gloss to try, but I chose one of their bullets instead. I might pick up a gloss with Ulta points soon!
I couldn't decide, so I picked up a gloss and a bullet ๐
This one did decide to bleed, but I'm still curious enough about the formula and the overall comparison to the Lacquers that I might pick up a second shade at some point just to see if it's the temperamental purple pigment in this one, or if the overall formula is just a little more slippery than the Lancome.
MAC matte Lavender Jade
A pretty lavender that looks beautiful on you @heartsmyface โค๏ธ๐ฅฐ
This is a Givenchy mini something or other lipstick . Itโs supposed to turn your lips your perfect shade of berry. Uh...no. ๐
I agree still pretty but not a berry shade @divaknits โค๏ธ
Thanks @2manyperfumes ! I donโt know where they got berry out of this. The other mini is supposed to be pink. Seems like I wore it for the challenge, but I donโt remember. Maybe Iโm confusing it with Frog Prince. Iโm still wearing lipsticks that are new to the challenge. ๐ณ Will it ever end? ๐คฃ
Lol no it will never end @divaknits because we have a slight problem of addiction on this thread โค๏ธ๐ฅฐ
It's still a gorgeous color on you! @divaknits
Itโs definitely not berry @divaknits, but it does look pretty!
LA Splash Wickedly Divine Liquid Lipstick In Runic. Itโs a liquid matte that looks somewhere between periwinkle and violet on me in real life, and it has a very subtle teal shift. Iโm wearing it over my usual liquid matte base of Aquaphor and MAC Prep + Prime Lip. I always line my lips before applying a liquid matte; tonight I used MUFE Artist Color Pencil in Blue Anyway.
I know I said Iโve sworn off trying more liquid mattes. But Iโve stalked the LA Splash matte shades for a long time. I found a few of them during my last Riley Rose store visit and bought one. This photo was taken after a cup of coffee and thereโs zero transfer on my mug, though on my lips I do see a tiny bit of flaking at one corner. I canโt say Runic doesnโt feel drying at allโitโs a liquid matte, after allโbut itโs surprisingly tolerable for me. My lips donโt feel like the Sahara: no grittiness or painful dryness. This might be the 3rd liquid matte formula I can comfortably wear.
About that teal shift: you know how some liquid mattes crack when you smile, resulting in vertical stripes? With Runic, the teal fills in the cracks, and I kinda like that! I tried to capture it under beauty lighting:
Iโm gonna buy a second LA Splash matte. ๐ If the second one performs this well or even better, Iโll be a very happy camper. Meanwhile I still need to put Runic through the food test, which I do for all liquid mattes. I also want to try it under gloss. Might update this later.
That is a brilliant bold and daring shade that looks amazing on you @WinglessOne โค๏ธ๐ฅฐ Iโm curious to see what other shade youโll pick out from LA Splash
That is terrific filling in of the cracks with the teal. What a unique color shift. Of course it looks amazing on you :). Yesterday, I went to CC Store in Off Saks Ave for Liptensity and the only unique color besides black I found ( already had dupes for the pink/reds/browns) was a purple-y gray kind of in that color range. It's called Grey Galaxy, I think? Something with galaxy in it. @WinglessOne
Thanks @Buootiful! And I know which Liptensity shades youโre talking about ๐: Stallion, one of my favorite black lipsticks ever, and Galaxy Grey. I donโt have the Galaxy Grey bullet but I do have the lip liner. Itโs a cool toned grey lavender. Quite a unique shade among the sea of grey beiges and bolder lavenders/orchids out there.
