100 Days of Lipstick Challenge

[snoflakefaerie]

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.

I love it @divaknits you are giving me ideas lol.  Very nice and not too gold (subtle and shimmery) 👍. A little bit each day.  Eat healthy and that’s great that your setting up a plan with your practitioner but don’t beat yourself up.  You are making an effort and for your health.  How about you reward yourself with a little makeup purchase every time you reach a goal lol.  An affordable lipstick for a small goal you stick to for say 21 days and then a mini-spree for a bigger goal and hmmm the mother load for a milestone like 25 pounds +.treat yourself and acknowledge your effort and success.  It will matter to you ❤️  When you reach that goal you will need to go out and buy some new clothes.  🥳 I think I was past 180 pounds on a 5”3 frame.  I had to replace everything except my socks haaaa 

[divaknits]

Reward eh? I never thought about doing that @2manyperfumes. More lipsticks! Yeah I can see doing minis every 10 pounds. Maybe a luxury lipstick after 30 pounds, and maybe a mini spree after 50 pounds. I hope this makes it doable. I had two tamales and a margarita as my quiet time away from my husband and daughter. I guess I can spend that time walking in the park instead of eating. This is gonna be hard, but so much better for my body. I can’t seem to get off the floor or from a squatting position without falling or holding onto something. It’s just embarrassing. 

[2manyperfumes]

Small goals and acknowledge your efforts ❤️ That way you don’t feel like your missing out.  You’re not alone and as we get older it’s just hard but not impossible.  The body starts to adjust and some days we just want that slice of cake or a margarita yum lol.  It’s time you take for yourself.  Just say I’d rather spend my money on makeup then prescriptions as I age.  We all have our battles.

@divaknits  If you ever need a fun way to get in some cardio, try dancing. Throw on some music and dance through at least 5 songs. When I started my “omg I’m getting old and my body’s falling apart, I gotta get healthier” journey 3 years ago, my daily exercise (aside from walking) was dancing through one full album. I usually did that at night. After a few months, I gradually incorporated some cardio moves into my dancing. Then I moved on to HIIT routines. Didn’t take long before I was able to start running again (I used to run a lot in my 20s).

I don’t really focus on my weight as much as how I physically feel (how many flights of stairs can I climb without getting winded; how sluggish do I generally feel; can I lift heavy objects; etc.). I’ve been very overweight and quite underweight, and it’s dangerous for me to focus on numbers on the scale. But I’ll say just dancing each day, combined with walking a lot each day, made me lose 5-8 pounds a month. (I only did monthly weigh-ins.) I mean, obviously listen to your doctor’s advice... don’t overdo anything. 🙂 But if it helps, there are fun “easy” ways to get in some exercise, and it’s good to let your body tell you how it’s feeling rather than focusing too much on what a scale says. 

[2manyperfumes]

I whole heartedly agree with you @WinglessOne @numbers mean nothing when you are at a healthy weight and size for your body.  My work is very physical requiring standing for long periods and lifting (up to 50 pounds at a time).  When I started I was just under 200 pounds and it killed me every day I was so sore but as the weight slowly melted away my mindset shifted.  Dancing is good for the soul.  ❤️  I did have some skin density issues especially after losing 50 lbs more on my face but I said screw it and found a good clinic to do some mini repairs especially where the loss of fat created sagging and drooping (I don’t care I wanted to feel good about myself and no one wants to lift an eyelid to have peripheral vision).  I’ve learned to never say never the hard way.  Botox helped my migraines and kept my lids off my eyeballs.  I’m like an old car that needs more extensive servicing 😂 I looked at what I spent on skincare or on a Sephora haul and for that money I redirected it into the treatments.  It’s not for everyone but thankful for the choice.

I cleaned up my room and found a bag of lipstick pencils I had forgotten about.  Inside were several Nudestix shades, a Bite pencil and one from Black Up.  I chose Vintage from a Nudestix.  Deep warm red shade. Several were hardly used.Third one from right
