@faeriegirl   I hope it works for you!

@Ispend2much6 I was thinking that Candy Love may be a bit too light for my skin-tone too so thank you for sharing your tip on how you got it to work on you! I will try dabbing it with my finger when I receive it 😉 And congratulations on these goodies! 💛

[Ispend2much6]

@Guessgal   Now I am wondering if a thin layer of Underdawg on top of Candy Love would make a pretty purple...

[Ispend2much6]

@Guessgal   Oh, I hope it does work for you, and congratulations!

@Ispend2much6 Congrats on this gratis!

Congratulations @Ispend2much6 ! If Mr @Ispend2much6 tried to kiss you, then this box of gratis worth an A++. Thx you for all the great tips 🌹❤️🥰💄

[Ispend2much6]

@blackkitty2014   He he!  Thank you and I hope you love your box as well.  I think we'll have to test out the lip mask soon. 😉

Congratulations, @Ispend2much6! I love your tips and tricks for making the deeper/brighter shades work for you. What a great way to celebrate National Lipstick Day!!!

[Ispend2much6]

@eshoeThank you!  It certainly was very kind of Sephora to gift us at Ntl Lipstick Day!  I love how they chose a shade from each of the main shade groups- pink, nude, red, and berry/purple.

[eshoe]

Not only the shades, @Ispend2much6, but the textures! Very well thought out.

Congratulations on this gratis  @Ispend2much6! Love how you’ve made these lippies work for you! 👍🏼

[Ispend2much6]

@itsfi  Thank you!!  Lip gloss can save anything; it's like the duct tape of the beauty world. 😊

[CookieGirl1]

@Ispend2much6 THAT is such a true statement.  I may borrow that sometime 😉.

[Ispend2much6]

@CookieGirl1   Thanks!  Feel free. 🙂

‘Thank you’ doesn’t seem to be enough to express my gratitude! @TeamBIC y’all have really outdone yourselves this time, National Lipstick Day will be very happy indeed! 

 

Congratulations to everyone who has and is receiving this gratis! Looks like I’ve gotten the same shades as most of the other posts I’ve seen,  can’t wait to see if anyone gets something different 👀 

 

Top Left: Sephora Collection- Clean Lip Stain Liquid Lipstick in Candy Love 

I wouldn't have picked this color for myself, but I really like it! This dries down matte and was drying on the lips, will definitely use the Tatcha Kissu Lip Mask underneath next time though. 

Top Right: Yves Saint Laurent - The Slim Glow Matte Lipstick in Insurgent Red

This will be perfect for fall! There's a bit of a learning curve with the square lipstick bullet, but overall a beautiful lipstick formula. 

Bottom Left: Fenty Beauty by Rihanna Stunna Lip Paint Longwear Fluid Lip Color in Underdawg

This had the most unique applicator, with a little practice I think it will help with all the edges. I had to do a couple of passes with this color to get it opaque enough to not look patchy. Turned our pretty good I think!

Bottom Right: Charlotte Tilbury Matte Revolution Lipstick in Pillow Talk

I'm a nude lip lover and a Charlotte Tilbury fan so this was love at first swipe! This is such a comfortable formula.

Bite Beauty Agave Weekly Vegan Lip Scrub

I've been wanting to try this forever, and this did not disappoint! I love that there's a little scoop that fits inside container with a protector so you don't lose it -this is good planning, bravo. The granules are gritty enough to get the job done, but not too harsh. The scrub has a nice vanilla scent/taste, works well, and in the end doesn't make your lips feel raw and dry but instead nicely moisturized. Love this!

Tatcha The Kissu Lip Mask

A little bit goes a long way! This product is highly moisturizing. It goes on thick, but isn't sticky. I only wish that the applicator had the same handy size and in-container nest like the Bite scrub. I have a feeling this will be easy to lose!

Congrats, @Mcakes!! 🥳 These look amazing on you!!

[CarolBT]

[Mcakes]

@CarolBT Y'all made some fabulous choices! Thank you!!

[pocketvenus]

@Mcakes These colours all look great on you!! I like the Fenty the best, so dramatic!
