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'm not sure I've really seen anything like it (ok, I'm sure there's a dupe out there somewhere lol)...it's somewhere between a deep berry and a softened burgundy. It's really quite a lovely color...I may have to hang on to it just to take it with me on a swatch journey. I'd love to find a better formula in a similar shade.
@RGbrown I’ve been trying to think of dupes, but each one is either too red or too berry. Chasing shades is partly how folks wind up with hundreds of lipsticks 😂 but hopefully you can find testers to swatch in person and compare to this shade.
I’m honestly surprised I can’t think of a dupe in my collection... and if there’s one in my declutters, I probably wouldn’t recommend it anyway. But if I think of one, or find one, I’ll let you know!
I've been curious about Glossier's Generation G lipsticks since they came out, but when I saw that they reformulated the product and fixed packaging issues this year, I finally picked one up during their Black Friday sale. The formula is unlike anything I have. It's definitely a sheer matte as described by the brand, but it's like a very slightly tacky and slightly dry tinted lip balm with color that somehow manages to last way longer then a tinted balm. This is about three swipes of the shade Jam.

@txcatx I’ve also been curious about Generation G (I still love Glossier’s Cloud Paints) but, for some reason, didn’t buy one during the sale. Your description of the formula sounds... interesting. I like the idea of a sheer matte, but I can imagine how a slightly dry balm would feel. I wonder if wearing this over my usual liquid matte base (balm + primer) would help. Hmm. Anyway, it’s very pretty on you!
@WinglessOne Some of the reviews I had read compared the texture to a dried up lipstick, like when you've left the cap off of a lipstick. I thought it felt a little more like a somewhat dry balm, and it definitely takes several swipes for the color to show. It doesn't feel as dry once it's on your lips. I was expecting it to feel like Dior Lip Glow in the matte shades, but the Glossier surprisingly has a better texture than the Dior, in my opinion. The only other lipstick I have in a somewhat similar texture is the Shu Uemura matte lipstick, but that one feels more cushiony, if I recall correctly.
I don't get to check BIC every single day, but I'm honestly surprised that Glossier doesn't show up more often in lipstick challenges. I know there's a Glossier brand thread around here, but it stays mostly quiet--probably because not a lot of new products are released regularly.
Jam looks really lovely on you @txcatx I haven't tried Glossier at all and now I'm curious. ETA Weren't you working on a 50 day challenge? You're almost done! Good work!
@sprocketta Thanks! And I've been buying so many lipsticks and lipstick sets during recent sales that I should maybe go for a 75 lipsticks challenge, ha.
@lmaster No, I just went with the color I would wear most often, and I'm not sure I like the formula or the other colors enough to buy another one. I ended up getting the set that has a lipstick, brow gel, and concealer at a discounted price, plus the extra 20% off Black Friday deal.
@txcatx thanks for sharing - this is a really pretty color ! I've always been curious about the brand as well
@Kim888 Glossier's Cloud Paint and Boy Brow are some of my all-time favorite products that I've been using for a while! I can definitely think of a few lipstick formulas that I like better than Generation G, but it does what it claims it does, and I do like this color, which is a bit darker in person.
Day 2! MJ le Marc liquid lip crayon in Plum n Get It. I grabbed this as a GWP and haven’t done anything more than swatch it till today. This formula is dreamy, I just wish the metallic was a touch more noticeable but I’m still a fan! I have a holiday lunch today so we’ll see how this wears 😂
@cianni Plum n get it is a gorgeous shade on you.
@lmaster coming from you the most gorgeous hehe thank you! 😍❤️ It actually dried down a bit and it’s really metallic now💕
That sounds so pretty!! @cianni I love a metallic finish
Day 2: Dose of Colors liquid lipstick in Berry Me.
I am also really digging that color on you @rockstargina!
Thank you!
