I'm calling it! You know the rules, wear a different lipstick every day this month. (I love this and look forward to it every year.) Has it been a year already? Shock I've been buying make-up (again) and have some lippies I need to get through! I'm not wearing anything at the moment, that will change come morning though. Smile

Lovely buster
I’m wearing Drunk Dial by Too Faced. Such great lipstick and really quality case but not really my colour as bit too purple. Would buy another colour except that I have about eleventy billion lipsticks.

I love that @AnotherPinkiePieStory

NARS Schiap today. How I love it. It's a super bright fuchsia demi matte, great lasting power, non drying, really fabulous colour

SapphireSeptember · 25/01/2019 23:01

Pinkie Oooh, I like that!

Lotta I've wanted to try that for AGES! Is it worth it?

I didn't update yesterday, but I wore Revlon Forward Magenta, (bright purple toned pink matte) and today was Power Move (dark red matte) and Cosmic Queen (shimmery duochrome fuchsia lip gloss.)
Revlon were killing it last year with their new things!

I love that lipstick Pinkie. I've heard of the NARS one Lotta I think I've read about a celeb who wears that shade. It's lovely too.
Flab you can't beat Bourjois!

Lottapianos · 26/01/2019 10:46

Yes, go for it Sapphire. I think it's £22 which is expensive but not horrendous. The formula is good, lasts well and fades evenly

Fresta · 26/01/2019 16:52

Can I join? I am also on the no spend beauty thread because I have too much make-up. I own about 24ish lipsticks, some which never get worn so this will be inspiring and maybe help me fall back in love with a few. I will try not to be tempted to buy more though!!! Will post back later with my shade of the day as haven't put any on yet!

MyGastIsFlabbered · 26/01/2019 19:43

My son made me put this on to see how it looks. It's Kat Von D in Televator.

It doesn't really show in the photo but it's a lovely metallic purple. DS approves!

Wow gast that’s awesome. You look great. Like the Bourgois too although they never last on me.

Yes join us fresta. It’s totally fine to have loads of lipsticks if you wear them. If not, pass them on and let someone else love them! Sorry that might not be in spirit of use-up thread!

Yesterday was 3ina liquid lipstick in 502. I saw it recommended as longest lasting lipstick ever. Hmmmm? It’s no Maybelline! Nice colour and not too drying but not greatly tempted to try others.

Not posted on here before although spotted it weeks ago. I got an Urban Decay Born to Run no 66 (nude/mauve) colour this week for c £11 on sale on their website.

Delighted!!! It's gorgeous and v long lasting. Matte.

Otherwise I always go for Estee Lauder liquid lip mixed with various colours of them that I've got or a bright pink MAC matte liquid lip massively subdued.

Felt v let down by the 'iconic' Charlotte Tilburg 'pillow talk'. Almost A tad orange on me for some reason and not long lasting. Will post a pic of my new fave UB in a sec if can look nice enough!!

Today's is Rimmel So Starry. It's a nice colour but very sheer and hard to get a good depth of colour. Think it might work better as a topcoat.

princessbear80 · 27/01/2019 17:27

tee that is a gorgeous colour. I’m very tempted. Good price too. But I’m not supposed to be buying any more!

MyGastIsFlabbered · 27/01/2019 17:52

I'm liking Tee's lippy too but I shouldn't be buying any more

ClosedAuraOpenMind · 28/01/2019 17:02

Love those Tee and Gast. Great colours. I’m in Mac Twig. Such a good colour. Was in Rimmel Coral earlier and lasted really well. Might wear again tomorrow although already lined up a Barry M one!

Lottapianos · 29/01/2019 08:36

Wet and Wild in Stoplight Red today. Supposed to be a dupe for MAC Ruby Woo, but a quarter of the cost and a much more comfortable formula!

Greyhound22 · 29/01/2019 16:22

Lotta I was tempted by WetnWild - liked the look of the colours - good then? Impressed that the lipsticks are 2.99!

Lottapianos · 29/01/2019 16:42

Greyhound22, I'm really impressed with the formula - not drying and good staying power. Great range of colours too. The packaging is fairly flimsy - that's my only criticism really but it doesn't bother me

AnotherPinkiePieStory · 29/01/2019 20:02

lotta. I love wet n wild too but agree with packaging. I keep my lipstick in my pocket at work and they do smash quickly and very annoying. If I remember that I love them!

Today Barry M. Can’t tell you what as all rubbed off and case broken. Grrr

Lipstick Challenge January 2019.
MyGastIsFlabbered · 29/01/2019 20:57

Wet n wild is vegan too which is a huge plus for me. I feel a shop coming on! Can we keep going into February? 😀

SapphireSeptember · 29/01/2019 22:29

I'm sorry I've neglected you my dears! Yes, we should continue this, we should have a little corner in S&B for the lipstick lovers. Smile

Rundown of lipsticks worn...
Friday, Revlon Rise Up Rose and Dark Mercury (the latter is a murky mid purple shimmery lipgloss.)
Sunday, Revlon Forward Magenta (again.)
Monday, Revlon Audacious Mauve and Boutique (Sainsbo's own makeup line) in Strawberry Sorbet (which is similar to Revlon Cherries In The Snow.)
Tuesday, Revlon Dare To Be Nude (peachy nude matte) and Show Stopper, a bright red matte with a pinkish tone.

Gast I like your lippies! I have So Starry too. Smile

Red today. NYX lip butter in Mary Jane, like the colour a lot but it's not v long lasting...

MyGastIsFlabbered · 30/01/2019 08:23

Revlon metallic in 'Shine' today. First time I've worn it so don't know how long it'll last but I like it
