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.
Thanks for asking @MissPuff ! I’m doing well. No crutches anymore and walking pretty well. I saw the surgeon today and he says I’m exactly where he wants me to be at this point. Now it’s just a matter of time in building the quad back up again. PT is pleased with my progress too!
Yaaay! Great to hear 🙂 Be careful out there, the weather is nuts and the streets are icy!
Urban Decay Vice (Metallized) in Sancho
Red-berry love 😍💖
Outside of testing (and tossing) my matte UD Vices, I haven't really worn many of my other UD's for this challenge because they are in the "generally safe" category. Time to buckle down and check them all! Outside of bleeding, they're all still likely to be safe; I could probably get rid of a couple if I did some swatch matching and pulled similar shades, but I'm not terribly dedicated to making sure my collection is entirely dupe-free, especially in the pinky/berry/magenta categories. 😋

@RGbrown This looks beautiful on you! I am normally not a huge 'red' lip girl but all of these beautiful red lips on BIC is making me want to put one on!
Best,
Rebecca
Thanks so much!
Reds are fantastic, and with so many options, there really is one (or two dozen 😛 ) out there for everyone!
I like this color VERY much on you @SnugglePuggle94 !
Day 90. Besame 7 Dwarves set, this is Grumpy. I seriously adore this color. It's so flattering on me. The texture is weird and waxy, so hopefully I can find a dupe in a different formula. This actually wears pretty well, though.
Loving this color on you and your glasses are giving me life.
That really is a flattering coral on you, @sprocketta ! I bet there’s a ColourPop Lux dupe. I wonder if there’s a MAC dupe? Might be worth taking that bullet to the MAC standalone store (or to Nordstrom next door) and asking for the MAC equivalent. I mean, not to give you a reason to go lipstick shopping... 🙂
Day 92, lipstick 107: Pat McGrath Lip Fetish Balm in Full Fantasy. This was in a full size trio I bought during one of PMG direct’s sales last year. It looks scary (to me) in the tube: the kind of hot coral-leaning pink I usually run from. 😨 But knowing how sheer some Lip Fetish balms are on me, I bought the trio anyway—and I like this one! It’s sheer enough that you can tell my top lip’s a bit darker than my bottom lip. But it’s not so sheer that it has no color impact (my lips are not naturally that shade of pink 😂). Same balmy comfort as other Lip Fetishes, and this one doesn’t feather on me.
This looks very nice on you @WinglessOne I've been tempted by those fetish balms but again, sticker shock. How does it wear?
Thanks @sprocketta ! This one holds up pretty well (for a tinted balm) to cups of coffee, but a meal destroys it. If it pools into lip lines a bit while I drink coffee, I can easily fix it by quickly rubbing my lips together. You’ll definitely feel it on your lips, which annoys some people: if you’ve ever used the Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask, imagine a very light coating of that on your lips. But to me, the Lip Fetishes are very comfy. No extra balm needed beneath them: they work best on bare lips.
Perfect natural lip color, like you woke up like this 🙂 @WinglessOne . I wouldn't have noticed the darker lip till you pointed it out Be warm and safe ! 🙂 ❤️
Thanks @Buootiful ! It’s a balmy -1F today. It’s amazing how “warm” that temp can feel. 😂 Middle of next week will be in the high 40s/low 50s, which will feel like a heatwave after this week.
@WinglessOne What a beautiful color! Love that it's a sheer formula. I have been leaning toward those in the drier winter months. Thanks for sharing 🙂
Best,
Rebecca
Thanks @RebeccaBT ! The Lip Fetishes are great for winter, mostly because of their balm texture. The more sheer shades also leave less of a pigmented mess on winter scarves. 😂
