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.
wow, this orange is pretty on you! Pretty. To describe an orange. Who knew?! It is so fresh and pretty on you. @WinglessOne
๐งก๐งก
It's a made-for-you shade. Very pretty. (This coming from someone who would not wear orange as a main colour in clothes nor in makeup lol) @WinglessOne
The depths of your collection never fail to amaze me @WinglessOne You ALWAYS have a couple more lipsticks in related shades. I don't know how you keep track of so many, much less the 5 or 6 you swatch on your hand. I get 3 shades on my hand and then it's, ummm, which one was this? When I was at Sephora Saturday I was swatching different shades of PMG Luxe Trance on my hand and was losing track. Personally I think you and @RGbrown are the queens of lipstick on BIC. You probably have the largest collection I have heard of. Hers must be at least 200. I'm off on a total tangent, but I just love talking lipstick with you ladies.
I'm around 185, with a few more purchases from Lipstick Day still to test and decide on. I'm a small fry compared to several folks ๐
Not gonna count my declutter box though...there's definitely over 100 there, if not 200 or more. ๐ฎ
Thanks so much @sprocketta ! โบ๏ธ Honestly, I sometimes lose track while swatching. It usually happens when I swatch one or more new lipsticks against a bunch I already own, because Iโm not nearly as familiar with the newcomers yet. For the MAC Love Me swatches I did last night, I waited til I was done before jotting down all the shade names in Notes, but I couldnโt remember which pink was which so I had to reswatch those. ๐
I bet @heartsmyface has a bigger collection than I do, especially since Iโve decluttered so many lipsticks. ๐ Iโm afraid to do a recount of mine but yeah, itโs over 200. I hope itโs well under 300. My starting count was over 400, which I didnโt realize until I found an old shoebox of makeup including more lipsticks. Iโm still decluttering, so I really should count everything again soon.
Lipstick Queen Rear View Mirror Lip Lacquer in Low Rider Raisin
It took me a couple of tries to get the hang of this one. It's a super soft gel in a click stick; if you don't click it up far enough, the plastic tube just scrapes product back off your lips as you move across them, but if you click it up too far, you can wind up with some thick blobs since the product is so soft. But once I found that sweet spot, oh yeah, I'm really liking this! I love the shade, it's unbelievably comfy, and wear has been phenomenal for something so soft. Lots of transfer (totally expected), but similar to my beloved Lancome Lacquers, I'm shocked to see just how much is left on my lips after a couple of drinks and afternoon snacking. Coverage is even, no patchiness, no feathering. I don't need more, and the shade range isn't all that great to begin with...I can probably dupe the rest of the ones I'd like in my current collection... but I could see myself picking up one or two more at some point just because I really like the formula. ๐
@RGbrown Looking good! I love this color, there's something about that seems unique, like somewhere between a berry and a plum and wine. Beautiful ๐
Thanks so much!
I agree the color looks pretty unique; I still haven't swatched it against some of my other dark purples (not that I have many...they can be so problematic), but I'm looking forward to doing that. I think PMG Exxotica might be closest to it, but I'm pretty sure there'll be a decent amount of difference in the two, and I don't think I'll have anything else close.
@RGbrown This is the shade I almost bought instead of Magenta Fully Loaded. Itโs lovely on you!
Talking myself out of Magenta Fully Loaded was hard work...that type of berry is always the one I gravitate towards first. I will own it one day though ๐
