Hello lipstick junkies and a very Happy New Year to you all! (And a new decade!)

So, the point of this 'challenge' for any newbies is to go through your lipstick stash and wear a different colour everyday! Pictures are useful (although not mandatory) although colour descriptions are good too! Definitely post brand and shade name/number please! Smile

(So many exclamation marks, can you tell I'm excited? I love this, it's something fun during a dreary month.)

I will begin, I'm wearing L'Oreal matte lipstick in 'Stay the night'. I think it was a Boots exclusive or freebie or something (I got it on eBay.) It's a purple-y wine shade and very comfortable to wear.

Wearing any of my Marc Jacobs lipsticks makes me happy! 😁

Hi can I join in. I’m a daily lipstick user and have a vast collection! I’m enjoying looking for ideas on here. So many gorgeous lips and colours.
Here I am with guerlain rouge g in number 62, a universal neutral pink.

@TankGirl97 what a lovely colour on you. And all the others on the thread.

I'm wearing an Autograph long lasting matte lipstick that I got in last year's (2018) M&S advent calendar. I'm only wearing it because of this thread! I've got many more lipsticks than I thought.

I am another who is glad that The LE shades I want are sold out!

Chanel Rouge Coco Marie today. A work staple.

Pillow talk by Charlotte tilsbury. More muted and neutral than I’d normally wear (it was a gift) but it’s a lovely velvety, moisturising formula and I’m really enjoying wearing it.

Also someone asked about EL rebellious rose. It’s one of my favourites and I’m a pale skinned blonde.

MyGhastIsFlabbered · 17/01/2020 09:34

Just browsing lipsticks...as you do..,and came across a 'matte lipgloss'...surely that impossible? HmmConfused

TankGirl97 · 17/01/2020 10:01

Perhaps they thought 'lipmatte' didn't sound very appealing Ghast 🤣.
Mac Devoted to Chili today, a very easy to wear warm red.

Like the Guerlain 62 I could get a lot of wear out if that. I have an old Guerlain G but none from the new collection.

Today is Isabel Marant for L’oreal La Seine Shadow a brown pink.

I’m loving the Chanel in Marie. I may have to add that to my wish list!
Here I have EL rose tea creme.

Dior Addict Lip Maximiser in 009, which I think is called Holo purple.

I got this mini size as a gift with purchase when I ordered some products from Selfridges a couple of months ago.

It is a clear gloss (but not that glossy) with blue glitter. It looks a bit silly as it just looks light blue.
It has that minty/cool effect on the lips to make them bigger, and that interesting Dior lip glow/lip maximizer scent and taste.

My DH just looked at me and said it makes me look a bit ill, so it is going in the never again pile.

RiskIt4Biscuit · 17/01/2020 16:59

Have changed from the blue glitter Dior to Guerlain Rouge G in 62.

It is a beautiful shade, and a lovely lipstick, that I had forgotten about as it is too large to fit in the drawers I use for my makeup.
Thank you Jemima for wearing it!

Russian Red to see the Panto (joy)

Soap and Glory Pommie Girl for me today. I love this, great colour, finish and even smells good

Lucked · 17/01/2020 20:04

I have never been able to track Pommie Girl down, I swear it has been sold out for about 2 years!

ClosedAuraOpenMind · 17/01/2020 20:45

I bought mine years ago @Lucked
but it's a shame because it really is sooo nice, and a good price too

been looking at the Liza Eldridge ones but they're a bit pricey

Charlotte Tilbury coachella coral. Nearly finished this one so need to replace. If anyone knows of any cheaper dupes- it’s a warm coral, let me know!

The Temptalia website is good for dupes, it has a long list of possibles but suggests Mac Elegant Accent is very similar to CT coachella coral.

This is Mac Twig - I think someone has posted this before

Estee Lauder pure color matte in covetous nude. It's quite a warm peach/nude.

ClosedAuraOpenMind · 18/01/2020 22:18

Revlon balm stain in Dolce Honey today....calling it a stain is a bit misleading, but it's a nice colour, and super easy to apply as it's a chunky crayon. a nice colour for a casual saturday
