For somebody who’s a self-professed NON-lipstick junkie… I seem to own a great deal of lip products. And all of us understand that lipsticks don’t have a long lifespan – really, one ought to be tossing lip products about 18 months after opening. I’m guilty of keeping mine for MUCH longer than 18 months! (but let’s be sensible here, typical sense ought to prevail – if the lip product doesn’t have a cool odor or a strange texture, it’s most likely ok). All that said, I requirement to get rid of a whack of stuff that I barely ever reach for – some have gone bad, as well as others are just taking up valuable space:
I’m just going to do a rapid-fire purge on the lip products – there’s not much to state about each one because many of them are barely used, some not at all (for shame!) The ones that I did utilize as well as like, I’ll make a note.
Lipsticks
• Mary Kay true dimensions Lipstick in Wild about Pink – didn’t such as this colour on me
• Red earth sheer Envy Hydrating sheer Lipstick in Tea increased – this went poor so quickly, disappointingly
• Maybelline very stay 14 hr in Ravishing Rouge 065 – got this for totally free as well as never worn, just swatched – as well strong for me however a good formula though
• Elizabeth Arden color Intrigue impacts Lipstick in Poppy cream – beautiful formula as well as colour, just outside of my comfort zone. I’ll sanitize this as well as pass onto a friend.
• Elizabeth Arden color Intrigue impacts Lipstick in red wine cream – poor colour on me
• Mai charm Lipstick in Stella – got in a loot bag as well as never used or swatched, it’s a peachy pink shade. will be passing onto a buddy so I am not swatching it here.
• Vasanti tinted Lip Balm in Cancun – fantastic formula, just don’t wear this shade, I kept the shade Bahamas which is a soft increased colour
• L’Oreal Colour Riche Caresse lipsticks in Silky Java as well as Blushing sequin – this line is discontinued now. I rather like the formula however these 2 shades aren’t my favourite. I’ve kept 2 shades of this formula: Sunset Angora as well as Cherry Tulle.
• Prestige like & Kisses Lipstick in Kiss Me – beautiful formula, just truly old
• Rimmel wetness Renew Lipstick in Coral Queen – method as well bright for me
• Benefit full surface Lipstick in Lady’s option (Sephora 100pt perk) – I truly such as this lipstick however it’s rather old now. as well poor this formula is now discontinued – I’d always organized on getting the full size of this eventually.
Lipglosses
My taste in lip products have altered over time – I utilized to like lipgloss however now I’m not into anything as well shiny. I don’t mind some sheen so lipbalms as well as lip oils are much more to my liking nowadays.
• NYX Mega radiate Lip Gloss in 129 beige – smells like cough syrup
• Revlon very Lustrous Lipgloss in 040 nude Lustre – old however fantastic formula
• Revlon ColorBurst Lipgloss in Sizzle as well as terminate – as well smeary for such bright shades (but that terminate truly packs a punch!)
Paula’s option liquid Lipsticks in:
• Cherry Red
• Watermelon Pink
• vintage Pink
I got 4 tubes as gwp, I’m keeping just 1 shade (Festive Rose). nothing wrong with these except they’re not shades I’d wear – these are certainly not liquid lipsticks according to their name – they’re just a tinted non-sticky gloss.
• Maybelline Lip Elixir in Celestial Coral – don’t like the formula
• Buxom huge & healthy Lipstick in Shanghai – gone poor as well as unused! [randomly put with the lipglosses by accident, as well as likewise unswatched, oops]
• important glow wetness increasing Lip radiate in sheer Spice – this is beyond OLD. Does anybody keep in mind this brand? It was by Revlon as well as aimed toward the “mature” lady – sadly it flopped, however there were some standout products in the range.
• NYX Xtreme Lip cream in nude Peach Fuzz – provided me corpse lips
• The Body shop Hi-Shine Lip treatment in 10 completely Pink – unsightly colour on me
• Sephora fantastic radiate Lip Gloss in Rosy glow – totally free gwp from 2009!
Lipbalms
Maybelline infant Lips in:
• 15 Cherry Me
• 20 Grape Vine
• 25 Pink Punch
• 85 Oh! Orange!
• 95 Strike a increased (half lured to keep this one, the scent reminds me of a lip gloss I had as a child!)
I did truly like these with Cherry Me being my preferred of the lot, however they’ve expired. I can always repurchase if I miss them (well, except for the LE ones in the black tubes).
I’ve kept only 2 Maybelline infant Lips: 090 Plummy Yummy, as well as the Dr Rescue one I got just recently in 60 Berry Soft.
Revlon ColorBurst Lip Butter in:
• 010 Raspberry Pie (unused!)
• 015 Tutti Frutti
• 040 Red velvet (also unused!)
• 050 Berry Smoothie
• 070 Cherry Tart
• 085 Sugar Plum
I completely admit that I went overboard purchasing these in almost every shade Revlon released, as well as these were frequently on sale for $3-4 each.
I’m going to provide the unused ones to my buddies soI’m not going to swatch them. I’ve kept 5 shades: 010 Pink Truffle (probably my favourite), 027 Juicy Papaya, 035 candy Apple, 063 Wild Watermelon, as well as 075 Lollipop.
Alas, a big part of my eos stock have gone off! I opened every one of my eos balms for a sniff test as well as discovered that a great deal of them don’t close firmly – something wonky with the threads. What a awful waste, really. The orange one is relatively new however I’m tossing since it smells like medicine crushed up as well as mixed with earwax. These are the ones going bye-bye:
• Medicated Tangerine (orange)
• Sweet Vanilla Nonsense (ivory)
• Watermelon Wonderland (red)
• Blueberry Potion (blue)
• enthusiasm Fruit (purple)
• Barbados warm / Wildberry (berry)
• Pomegranate Raspberry (plum)
• Aloha Hawaii (Strawberry Kiwi)
• Lemon decrease (yellow)
• summertime Fruit (deep pink)
• as well as a fake wannabe bath & Body works Liplicious in Apple
I can’t state I won’t be purchasing any type of much more eos lipbalms however I will definitely try my finest to utilize up what I have! I only have 5 eos lipbalms left now.
• Kose PURE UV-CUT SPF15 Hyaluronic Acid lip balm – old as well as didn’t like the formula
• Nuxe Rêve de miel lip balm – I understand people like this however it’s just so waxy as well as didn’t moisturize my lips at all
• Roc Enydrial Repairing Lip care – this was suggested by my manager as well as I didn’t like the formula, felt like I was applying glue stay with my lips
50 lip products gone!
I’m down to a extremely workable amount of lip products now. Here’s a before as well as after of a few of my lipstick holders:
Do you have any type of of these lip products? Are you in requirement of a makeup stock purge too?
