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.
@sprocketta so close to 100! This is an awesome blister pack, by the way.
I'm so close it's killing me @curlychiquita I don't know what I'll do when I finish. What will I wear next?
@sprocketta Nice to see you smiling again! That is a super dope blister pack!
@sprocketta I’m glad you found a Vice you like! Maniac’s a great color for you.
The cream and sheer Vices definitely feel better than the Comfort Mattes, though I also like the latter. The Mega Mattes are the ones I’m not fond of. Anyway, that’s a great sampler! I’m sure you’ll get good use out of it. Next time you’re at Sephora or Ulta, grab a couple of their clean tester doe foot applicators. 🙂 Or keep the wand from a liquid lipstick/gloss you don’t like. I have a few I use solely for blister packs. I wash them between lipstick shades.
Thanks @WinglessOne Such a good idea about getting one of the sample applicators to have on hand. I'll definitely do it.
Loving the sampler. Where did you get that? That color looks great on you @sprocketta! Glad to see that smile.
@divaknits I don't know where the UD lipstick sampler came from, but it was kindly gifted to me by the lovely @RGbrown
I'm 99% certain I got it from Ulta in a gwp 😁
@sprocketta UD liquids are awful (ok, I find all liquid mattes awful), but their bullets are really nice! Try one or two of the mattes in this sampler if you feel up to it...I'm not a huge fan, but they're pretty nice for a bullet matte. And definitely keep rocking their creams...this one looks awesome on you!
Yeah @RGbrown The UD Vice bullets in the cream and sheer seem right up my alley. Too bad I just missed the Sephora sale on them 😞
Isn't that always how it goes? 😞 There will be another deal on 'em though, I'm certain...I know I've never paid full price, and I've got quite a few.
I thought about buying a few during the sale, but the 2 shades I wanted most were OOS before it even started. I put a couple of others in my cart before I went to bed so I could sleep on it, and when I got up, they were OOS too. Kinda glad I missed it, since I have no business buying more lippies lol 😛
I hear you @RGbrown I'm still shocked at what I've accumulated. But I still love lipstick to no end and will buy more. I'll jump on it if UD vice goes on sale anytime soon.
@sprocketta How cool is that sampler! What a nice way to try so many different shades.
Best,
Rebecca
@RebeccaBT Having tried one, I definitely am more interested in this than I was initially. Still, many are matte so I'll pass on those. I'll be happy to get wear out of a few shades, I think.
Might as well keep rolling through some of my oranges: ColourPop Ultra Blotted Lip in Ocean Ave, topped with Fenty Universal Gloss Bomb.
I kinda hate ColourPop’s Ultra Mattes (too drying for me) but was intrigued by their newer Ultra Blotted liquid mattes. I applied one coat of this over lip balm, but next time I’ll also use lip primer—which I always do with liquid mattes, regardless of brand/formula, but forgot to do with this one. It wasn’t uncomfy, surprisingly. But it was streaky and patchy, so I had to add a second coat to help even things out. This shade’s not nearly as bright on the lips as it looks in the tube, since it’s meant to look like a sheer blotted layer. Before I added gloss, it held up well to a cup of coffee.
I wanted to see how well the Ultra Blotteds sit under gloss, so I topped it with a Fenty Gloss Bomb. I keep saying the Universal Gloss Bomb rights a lot of wrongs. 😂 No exception here: it really makes Ocean Ave pop. Looks better to me this way, though it’s still kinda patchy under the gloss.
I have another Ultra Blotted shade that might work better as intended (single layer, no gloss topper), so I’ll try that one soon. Meanwhile, I’m on the fence about Ocean Ave: I have orange cream/satin bullets that perform better, and I can easily sheer them out if I want a soft blurred finish, so I don’t really need this liquid matte. Hmm.
You can carry oranges so well they all look good on you. Hmmm I haven’t tried CP lip products. Fenty glosses are all bomb because they are just that good lol.
I love this shade on you and the Fenty Gloss Bomb definitely makes it pop and adds shimmer. Great look!
Thanks @ZakiyaBT @sprocketta @RebeccaBT @Anonymous !
