Is that a row of Tom Fords I see?! Are they worth the, frankly jaw dropping, price tag?

BubblesDarling · 13/02/2017 18:10

One more before I hit the gin! 🍸💄

Lotta- hmm they were gifts. I love having them in my collection. Indian Rose is my favourite. I need to wear the other two more !

Maudlinmaud · 13/02/2017 18:17

Wow! Bubbles! Impressive.
I'm new to this thread.
Bought three new reds this weekend.
Charlotte Tilbury Tell Laura, gorgeous orange/red. Love it.
Loreal Scarlet silhoette
Loreal Blake's red. The loreal where on two for £12 in boots, so bargain.

AnotherPinkiePieStory · 13/02/2017 19:23

Wow Bubbles love the collection.
Lotta I love my Tom Ford lipstick as gorgeous packaging and quality but worth it. Hmmm not sure. I used to buy myself one each xmas (and used to get champagne) at Harvey Nicols stand which did help justify the cost! Now I'm more in Kiko but will prob go back to a splurge lipstick at birthday and xmas.
Bluuue today I'm your lipstick twin. Nyx lingerie. My fave nude. Beats Charlotte tilbury hands down I thing.
Hi maudlin glamorous waves back to you

velvetteddygirl · 13/02/2017 19:36

Well, as you can probably tell by the name, Velvet Teddy is my go to but today I'm wearing a Nars Chelsea Girls lip gloss.

BubblesDarling · 13/02/2017 19:42

Thanks all. Waves to Maud!

I have relented, lipsticks are now in a clear acrylic 3 draw box. Less cluttered.

Does anyone remember Poppy King doing a collection with No7? I have found one in the back of the draw, called 'Intrigue'. Pinky nude. I remember loosing it on a night out & rushing out to buy another. We have been reunited!

BusterGonad · 14/02/2017 01:58

Bubbles I remember the Poppy King and No7! Has the tube got rain drops on?

BubblesDarling · 14/02/2017 09:09

Yes! The cardboard packaging in different colours with dots on, red, green, yellow etc. The glosses had sports on the lid, I think?

BusterGonad · 14/02/2017 11:54

I had some of those Bubbles, they were really cute.

leedy · 14/02/2017 12:37

I remember the Poppy King No 7 as well! I'm sure I have at least one in a drawer somewhere, they were really nice.

LOTD is Urban Decay Sheer Liar, which is actually not all that sheer. Nice rosy-nude-MLBB, lovely texture. Not massively exciting but a good "throw some lipstick on to look a bit more put-together" colour. Keep, though I'm now wondering if I have other similar shades.

(I suspect once I've done my "throwing out the lipsticks I don't like" phase - which has largely been for shade/texture/smell reasons - I may have to do another cull for my tendency to buy multiple versions of essentially the same lipstick. I see you, matte reds. I see you.)

Ooh Bubbles I wore Indian rose when I got married. I love it 😍
I'm obsessed with Charlotte Tilbury bitch perfect at the mo
(Loving this thread)

loveslipstick · 14/02/2017 15:07

Indian Rose is truly beautiful. I'm wearing Illamasqua Antimatter Lipstick In Cosmic today

velvetteddygirl · 14/02/2017 19:37

Lipstick of the day is true to my name, Velvet Teddy!

Maudlinmaud · 14/02/2017 20:16

Well it was an oldie but a goodie for me today, Mac girl about town. Brightened up my navy outfit.

Hello, I'm back! The heating is broken, so Mumsnetting and lipstick sorting have not been on my mind as my room is too cold to be in for very long! Ooh, more pretties! ❤ Today I wore Revlon Fuchsia Shock, it's one of the shine formulation ones they brought out a few years ago and one of my new ones. It's sheer but builds up nicely and is still quite bright and has shimmers in it. I think it's a watered down version of Fuchsia Fusion, for people who are scared of bright pink. (So not me then.) Four months and I'll be at an Evanescence gig! I have way too much make up... And that's not all the lipsticks I have!

Operation Make Up Rescue has gone awry, I need to pounce on my friend at some stage and get her to take me to her house. I want my make up back!

I've been (whispers) very slightly overdrawing my lips this wk, a la Charlotte Tilbury. With Mac soar, then a neutral or mlbb over. I really hope I'm on the right aide of towie gob.

madmomma · 15/02/2017 07:40

I am highly desirous of the tf Indian pink now

Lndnmummy · 15/02/2017 07:43

loveslipstick · 15/02/2017 09:33

What perfect lips you have Loves. Shock

loveslipstick · 15/02/2017 10:11

Haha if only I saw it like that, they are wonky to me!

leedy · 15/02/2017 10:57

Catrice Smooth Operator today, which is a really nice pinky-red in a balmy texture. More pigmented than your usual tinted balm. Total impulse buy a year or two ago, a handbag staple, and it was a limited edition so I can't buy any more of it. :(

BubblesDarling · 15/02/2017 14:23

Yesterday lotd Clarins Rosy Nude. Underwhelmed when I first brought it. Firm favourite now.

I went with Indian Rose today! With Mac Whirl lip liner. Seemed rude not too.

Lovelipstick, that looks gorgeous on you.

Welcome back Sapphire! I hope you & your lipsticks/make up are reunited soon.

Waves to Lnd.

ChocoChou · 16/02/2017 13:18

LOTD: CT liv it up with pillow talk liner.. am feeling fun!
