How many tubes do you have of your favorite lipstick/blush/etc?

I can't rest unless I have at least 2 spare Diorific lippies in my favourite colour. Nothing else has ever come close, and I'm terrified in case it is discontinued.

Am I pathetic? I expect so.

I have so much make up and rarely wear a full face

I'm trying to decide whether I should order more of my favorite lipstick/lipbalm hybrid. I am afraid it's been discontinued.

It's happened before.

We're the same! I always go out wearing, uehm, sunblock but I have makeups! (Probably not a lot but considering I don't use them...)

I do not think I've ever bought more than one of any make up product (as a back up) as I'm a real make up hoare and flit from brand to brand, sometimes getting obsessed with a particular product (hello Bourjois Rouge Edition Velvet lip stick) then moving on.
The products I've rebought over time are Dior Skinflash, Max Factor Burnt Bark eyeshadow...I can't really think of any more! I very rarely run out of my makeup as I've got so so much!

One back up of my favourite lipstick.

I panicked a bit when my favourite lipstick was discontinued... one in use, 3 backups, 2 backups of dupe #1 (also discontinued), 2 (3...?) backups of dupe #2 (also discontinued). So I'm OK on that one! Other than that I only buy backups when something I know I'll replace is on offer.
This does remind me that I meant to do an ebay trawl for Revlon Lip Butters now they have sadly disappeared!

Clinique Iced Lotus blush. I’ve one in use and 3 backups 😊.

Lip butters are four quid including postage on eBay. I ordered four :)

Can't believe they've been discontinued, remember the buzz when they came out?

Guess they need room for the mega matt lip velvet shite that sells so well now.

peppykoala · 23/09/2017 22:06

Thankyou Morris that makes me feel much better about my plan to order several.

I know, I was shocked when I went to replace mine & couldn't, they were so good!

MmmmmmmChips · 24/09/2017 01:19

Re lip butters I think they moved over to Almay which of course isn't sold in the UK

BusterGonad · 24/09/2017 10:09

I thought lip butters were rubbish! Blush

MorrisZapp · 24/09/2017 10:52

The paler shades were pretty meh, but the berry ones are a game changer for me. I can put them on like a lip balm but have lovely deep coloured lips, bloody brilliant.

BusterGonad · 24/09/2017 14:40

That's where I was going wrong then! Grin
