14 [31 days] come tell me about your lipstick :)

Today the question is from me!

I have a colleague who has a really simple and effective make-up routine.

She uses only one colour lipstick (yes, it does suit her) and she uses the same tube consistently (in the mornings and throughout the day) so the same tube lasts her exactly one month.

I’m fascinated by this approach as I use one colour mostly… but I have two tubes, one at home and one in my handbag. I also don’t update my look as much as she does throughout the day so I have no idea how long my lipsticks last but it’s definitely longer than 3 months.

I’d like to know from you:

What is your system with lipstick?

 

And if you think this topic is superficial, it probably is BUT I do think my colleague saves time – time faffing in the mornings and time thinking about what colour she feels like on any given day.

What do you think?

  1. I have 5 lipsticks. All Outlast by Cover Girl so I only have to reapply once or twice a day. They are all in a cup upside down where the color is visible so I just glance at the cup, pick a color, apply and then I put it into my purse.

  2. I have about 12 or so lipsticks. I don’t like to be constrained by one colour, albeit I do have my faves. I like to think that my clothes and make-up reflect how I am feeling each day. So much else of my life is routine based and controlled, it’s the one way that I like to express myself, or, when needed, choose colour to alter my mood!

      Elle, I never thought of it like that!

      Besides my main colour, I have a brighter red for evening and some pinky ones for summer.

  3. I have about 5 and I carry them all with me everyday in my little cosmetics bag. I dare not leave lipstick at home because the last time Master Joel got hold of them and did some artwork. Also, I change the colour during the day as and when I feel like it.
