Lipstick Challenge - a different lipstick each day of Jan!

I remember a similar thread a few years ago that went down well Smile

The idea is to use a different lipstick every day and share with the thread whether a review, photo, anything! It isn't about buying new ones necessarily but rediscovering ones you already own.

We do a NYD dinner here so will put a nice new one on for that tomorrow and report back!

Rescued this from the bottom of an old handbag about to go in the bin. Quite like it actually, it's Maybelline 725 tantalising taupe

@ClosedAuraOpenMind
It's Keep Mauving by Rimmel. It's one of my favourites. It seems to last well on me.

thanks @Grimble69

We clearly have the same taste @Deathraystare Smile i love colour as well.

Love that one @RedLipsAndRosyCheeks I also miss Bourjois, I used to love their mascara and the shimmery eyeshadow in little pots.

Trying out another new one today, Charlotte Tilbury matte in Bond Girl. Its in a sample card of 8 shades i got free with an order, it also includes Pillow Talk which definitely doesn't suit everyone, makes me look ill. I quite like the colour of this, I always assume browns are warm & don't suit me but this doesn't look too bad, I do have a bit of bronzer on though which probably helps. Not blown away by the quality though to be honest. I don't think I'd buy one unless it was heavily discounted!

@Lilypad78

MAC amplified in Craving. I bought this online & I'm not sure it suits me. I think its cool toned but its just too muted. Its a shame as I love the texture. I would love to get another from this range once the shops have re-opened so I can pick a better shade.
this is Mac Craving on me - knew I had it lurking good colour and a nice feel to it

I fell off the thread as I ran out of lipsticks but I’ve picked up two new ones: NYX matt lip cream in Antwerp shade (I love this but think the shade may be too warm for me) and a kiko fusion in raspberry/415. I’ll see if I can manage two days of lipstick wearing and post pics.

Deathraystare · 28/01/2021 10:40

I digged out my old(ish) Max Factor Pink Brandy

Mine is not like the case below as it is older!

This is the new Kiko raspberry shade 415

It looks lovely on you @ClosedAuraOpenMind & quite different, a much warmer more neutral colour. It is such a lovely creamy consistency.

Trying new one out today, Nic Chapman for Mac. Its supposed to be a neutral nude & I thought I'd like to try something different. I quite like it, I think it will be nice in the summer when I usually have a bit of a tan.

Lipstick Queen in Venetian Masquerade today, which was a present. it's one of these colour changing ones, so look quite purple in the bullet but quite pink on.
it's not one I would have picked, but I think I like it

Yes my 5 Laura Mercier lipsticks came from John Lewis!

Today (see above) I am wearing Rose Mandarine Rouge Essential.

I shall not be around for a while as the '2 Covid Girls' are back at work.

I think I will be back 2nd week of Feb? Well unless something happens of course.

Deathraystare · 29/01/2021 14:00

Forgot to say that with the lipsticks I had a sample of Juliette got a gun
it was a musc one but smelt like The Body Shop White Musk (which I like, so why pay more???!!!)

Miaowse · 29/01/2021 15:27

Ooh, @Deathraystare you reminded me that I got a Juliette Got a Gun sample recently - it was called something like lipstick fever and it was meant to smell like lipsticks. It was not to my taste, but might appeal to some of the lipstick lovers on this thread - strong violets notes.

Today I’m wearing my new NYX matte lip cream in Antwerp and I love it. I still think it might be a bit warm toned for my colouring but it’s a lovely bright strong colour and the staying power is phenomenal. I tried it on before bed the night I got it and my lips still had a tint the next day (and the colour was lovely). I’m definitely going to pick up another few shades of this.

Here’s a pic not too long after application (much brighter in real life)

Deathraystare · 29/01/2021 15:50

@Miaowse Ooh that perfume sounds ok, unless it is very sweet. I hate sugary sweet things!

I would say that the lipstick looks quite neutral. It looks good on you.

*@Lilypad78** I have both the Sam and Nic Chapman lipsticks. Not sure how often I would wear Nic's as I prefer Sam's.

RedLipsAndRosyCheeks · 29/01/2021 16:18

@Miaowse that is a great colour

Miaowse · 29/01/2021 17:36

Thank you - now I know I like the formula I’ll probably try Amsterdam, San Paulo and Monte Carlo at some point. I think I have Amsterdam coming in next month’s Amazon subscribe & save.

Lilypad78 · 29/01/2021 19:59

Wow @Deathraystare love the Laura Mercier Rose Mandarin, that colour is amazing ❤. I really liked the Sam Chapman colour as well but i have about 5 or 6 bright reds already (all in pretty much the same shade Blush)

@Miaowse that's such a pretty colour, there's been quite a few nice NYX ones on the thread, will have to look them out when the shops finally open.

Back to the brights today, Rimmel The One in Pink a Punch. I like this but i don't love it, its a bit too bubblegum pink for me.

Miaowse · 30/01/2021 10:56

I really like the pink @Lilypad78

Today I used a lip brush to apply NYX chaos.

Deathraystare · 30/01/2021 15:55

Well @Lilypad78 You might not love it but that ink does suit you!

I said I would be back for a while but one of my colleages (can't bloody sell it now!) has decided to take the day off. I hope she doesn't do this tomorrow as I have a lot to do indoors.

I am wearing Laura Mercier Rouge Essential L'orange

Hopefully yu can see it amongst all this :

I kind of fell off the thread this last week as I ran out but its been fun :)

PartoftheProbl3m · 31/01/2021 17:19

gosh there are some fillers on this thread!

PLus lips of MURDERERS

RedLipsAndRosyCheeks · 01/02/2021 07:42

Matte ink front runner today, I love it!

I can't see any lips with fillers and even if I did would it matter? Also, I don't understand the "murderers" bit?
