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.
That’s a lovely color on you @sprocketta
I’m no selfie pro, but I’ve found if you hold the camera from above, aiming down at your face, photos tend to be more flattering. And at least for me (since my face is actually a smudge crooked), I look better slightly from the side than straight on. And trust me when I tell you I take LOTS before I post one 😉
@jozkid I'll try that. I think I need to be a pretzel to move into all the angles I need to get a good photo.
Once you mess around and get a couple you like, you'll remember where you should be holding the camera. Muscle memory. Also, soft, even lighting helps. I take mine in the morning in front of a west-facing window with a sheer curtain that helps diffuse the light a little.
Ahhh, yes, @sprocketta, anytime I *do* take a selfie I delete it. Somehow I don’t think I look like how I appear in them🤔. No pointers here, just letting you know that’s a great summer lip! Reminds me of Chanel’s ‘Mademoiselle’ coral a few years ago💄-bright and bold!
@eshoe Thanks! Any time I take one, then look at the picture, I'm thinking, "Gah! How did that happen?!" Deleing photo ensues.
Not just another red @sprocketta; another BEAUTIFUL red on you! Great, bold and lovely pop of color❣️
Thanks @itsfi You are a doll. I like this one, though the applicator is not great. It's got good pigment for a gloss so I keep it.
Took a few days away from BIC due to my life exploding, but I kept to the challenge for the most part. I'm so excited to see more people are in on the challenge! I've already been tempted to repeat a color, but I'm trying to stay strong. Anyway, here is what I wore the last few days:
Day 8: Bite High Pigment Pencil in Corvina
I had to take my cat to the vet for an emergency appointment. She developed a pretty intense limp, and I wanted to make sure she didn't break a bone or anything (she didn't but we're not sure what's causing it). My boyfriend and I went straight from the vet to him dropping me off at work. I was lucky I had Corvina in my makeup bag. I should probably put a different lipstick in there for situations like this, or if I forget to grab one for the day on my way out of the house. I really love this color. Some people don't like the way these wear, but I don't mind it. It's not too drying and stays pretty well. This one leaves a little stain, which I don't mind.
Day 9: MUFE Rouge Artist Intense in #36
This is the lipstick that began my love affair with lipsticks to begin with. It's the only one I've ever purchased a backup of, I love it that much. I'm sad they discontinued this line/color. It stays really well; it leaves a beautiful stain; it's comfortable. I would seriously wear this for the rest of my life if I only had one to choose. It doesn't show well in this photo, but it is such a beautiful hot pink.
Day 10: Smashbox Be Legendary Lipstick in Fig
This is pretty glossy for a lipstick so the wear-time isn't amazing, but I like how juicy it looks.
Day 11: Sephora Collection LipStories in #21 Pineapple Express
This is a really pretty purple-y rose color that is really comfortable to wear. I would definitely get more of the #lipstories lipsticks if I found the colors more unique. I just feel like I have a lot of the colors in my collection already.
Sorry for the spam of days, but I have a feeling as the challenge goes on, I may have trouble posting daily. I'll try to be good about it though1
I love Fig and Corvina on you! @snoflakefaerie. I had to return Corvina, it was not what I was looking for as a lip crayon but the color was sooo good. I thought it was going to be matte but it was so glossy. Glad you could put it to use 🙂
I hope your cat is a lot better now, too 🙂
@snoflakefaerie All of these are lovely. Especially Fig. Pineapple Express is vibrant and brightens you up. Also I am totally struggling today not to repeat a color because of the outfit I'm wearing and what goes with it.
Sorry to hear about your cat. Hopefully he/she's okay.
Smashbox fig is so nice on you, @snoflakefaerie, but I hear you on the wear time with satins-it gets annoying having to reapply every hour🙄
@eshoe yeah, I tend to go for satins that leave a stain because I don't have time to reapply at work very often.
@eshoe I will always put up with the shorter wear time on the satins. Not a matte fan. My only exceptions are now the Pat McGrath matte trance lipsticks which I discovered are amazing and the Huda liquid lipstick in Trophy Wife. Otherwise, no thanks!
I’d wondered what happened to you @snoflakefaerie! Your selections look beautiful though. Keep us informed on Miss Kitty’s condition. 😞
So many pretty lippies @snoflakefaerie! 💄Love Smashbox Fig on you; too bad it doesn’t have a longer wear time. I hope things are okay with you cat! 😺
Face spam...I'll go ahead and post here too on top of the All Or One Challenge thread. 😋
Today's selection is Laura Geller Love Me Dew Lip Crayon in Happiful
Great name for a great lip color - looks lovely on you @RGbrown! 💖
@RGbrown I'd love to see you post all of your Lancome L'Absolue Lacquer looks! You piqued my interest about these. I can't wait to try them on myself. I was surprised to see how many colors are available (and the 3 finishes!) since my Sephora only has a handful. 🙂
@greeneyedgirl107Unidentified
I thiiink I've posted pics with all of the ones I have...I'll go through later tonight and see if I can't dig them all up into one post for you. They are seriously amazing 💋
I certainly don't want you to go through too much trouble, @RGbrown!
