100 Days of Lipstick Challenge

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.

@divaknits  Thank you very much😘

Re: 100 Days of Lipstick Challenge

@faeriegirl Thank you so sooo much😘

Re: 100 Days of Lipstick Challenge

It’s beautiful on you @katkapivarci . And you have such amazing lashes!

Re: 100 Days of Lipstick Challenge

@PrettyPaint You are so sweet😘 thank you so much!!

Re: 100 Days of Lipstick Challenge

That's what I'm distracted by too @PrettyPaint@katkapivarci what mascara are you using?

Re: 100 Days of Lipstick Challenge

@ShortErica @PrettyPaint it’s actually the Hourglass Caution mascara. Is very good in separating lashes and making them long but kinda hard to apply due to the shape of the packaging. 

Re: 100 Days of Lipstick Challenge

That stinks about the packaging but you've managed to get an awesome end result @katkapivarci 

Re: 100 Days of Lipstick Challenge

@ShortErica  I know! I want to try whatever mascara it is, though I know my lashes will never look nearly that good! 🙂

@Anonymous Thank you so much💕

Re: 100 Days of Lipstick Challenge

This is a pretty combo, @katkapivarci ! What don’t you like about glosses? I swore them off for years until last spring or summer, when I fell in love with one brand’s gloss line. 

Re: 100 Days of Lipstick Challenge

@WinglessOne I don’t like the feel of gloss on my lips. That glidiness/stickyness of it. Also my hair is so fine and thin I always get fly aways stuck on my lips even when I have them in ponytail or bun. And I can’t kiss my baby boy because he’ll end up covered in sticky kisses. And they don’t last through food. I didn’t mind them few years back that’s why I still have few in my collection but now I just don’t like them. 😆🤷🏼‍♀️

Re: 100 Days of Lipstick Challenge

@katkapivarci  That’s understandable. 🙂 My main reason for hating glosses for so long is the sticky glue/molasses feel. I’m glad some brands have recently figured out how to make gloss feel much less sticky, and some—well, one brand in particular has nailed the longevity aspect of gloss. But there are still plenty of glosses I can’t comfortably wear, so I hear you. 

 

You just reminded me of my friend’s toddler who got into her makeup one day. He covered his mouth and hands in MAC Lipglass and ran around the house making as many people and things sticky as possible. 😄 She sent me a photo of him with dog hair stuck to his face, from burying his face in their golden lab’s fur of course. Sometimes little kids don’t mind sticky kisses. 😄 

Re: 100 Days of Lipstick Challenge

I started my day with NARS Audacious in Rita. I rarely wear this one and now I remember why: Rita has an attitude problem. She’s very drying for an Audacious. So drying, she gets kinda crumbly-clumpy in places within the first 20 minutes of wear. This is not like my other Audacious bullets. The others are comfy. Rita is not. Therefore, Rita is gone. Without even swatch-comparing some of my reds, I know I have a good dupe, so I’m not upset about dropping Rita in the declutter box. 

 

30 minutes later, I happily replaced Rita with Shiseido Visionary Gel in Firecracker, which is a repeat shade for this thread. 

 

Daylight. Apparently Rita got overcast light, and Firecracker got a bit of direct sunlight peaking through the clouds.Daylight. Apparently Rita got overcast light, and Firecracker got a bit of direct sunlight peaking through the clouds.

Re: 100 Days of Lipstick Challenge

@WinglessOne  wow it’s crazy how close they are. I would have thought it’s the same one!

Re: 100 Days of Lipstick Challenge

@ather  Yep. 🙂 Firecracker’s a touch warmer than Rita. 

Re: 100 Days of Lipstick Challenge

Thanks @faeriegirl  @lmaster  @PrettyPaint  @sprocketta  @RebeccaBT  @2manyperfumes !

 

Curiosity made me swatch some red bullets against NARS Rita today. I’ve been avoiding an all-reds swatch—or what I like to call The Reckoning of Reds 😂—because I’ve been in denial about how similar some of these shades are. But it’s time I decide which of these are the best performers for their finish type, and which ones I need to let go along with Rita. I realize many of these swatches will look identical to some of you. In some cases, you need to have an eye trained/able to see slight color variations, and/or a well tuned monitor/screen. To be fair, there are a couple of straight-up dupes here.

I ran out of arm space, so I couldn’t swatch more reds. I should’ve done half-length swatches instead, so I’d have room for 28 swatches. I did include a couple of orange reds for the heck of it. I... might have too many reds. 😂 

Re: 100 Days of Lipstick Challenge

I can I definitely see the variations on each one, that's so crazy how one color can literally be made into 30+ different versions @WinglessOne 

Re: 100 Days of Lipstick Challenge

@lmaster  Right? When people ask how many reds I have, well... it depends on which kind of red we’re talking about. 😄 Warm reds? Cool reds? Ruby, tomato, brick, “classic,” cherry, orange red...? And that’s without delving deep into the burgundy, vampy, blood red shades. There’s a red for everyone. 🙂

Re: 100 Days of Lipstick Challenge

You definitely hit the nail on the head @WinglessOne 😂
