the lipstick tag!

i stole this tag from my bestest friend in the world, shelley aka litfrom-within :)

this kinda makes me feel really guilty about my collection.. lol

1. How many lipsticks do you own?

this is embarrassing.. i have 73 lipsticks that i can find in my vanity.. but that's not including the ones around my room or in handbags lol. and also not including lip stains (e.g.; the revlon kissable balm stains, i have them all lol), or lip glosses.. counting those i have an excess of 200 lip products o_o yikes.

2. What was your first ever lipstick? 

that is a really great question.. i'm pretty sure that it was something my mum gave me. if i remember correctly, it was an old shiseido one (which i still have somewhere) in a soft dusty rose colour.

 3. What is your most worn lipstick?

oh god, this changes a lot. it depends on my outfit and mood! generally it's one of my revlon lip butters, because i love those. but lately, it's been the shade "wild watermelon", a gorgeous pinky-red colour.

4. What is your favourite brand for lipstick?

i'd have to say Mac. their cremesheens are to die for. <3

5. What is your favourite finish?

probably a cream. they're moisturising but still look nice on the lips.

6. What was the last lip product you bought?

2 chichi viva la diva lipsticks in "viva la diva" and "love game", and a revlon lipstick in "orange twist"

7. How many lip products do you currently have in your handbag? (Including balms and glosses)

only 3 (which is a surprise cause i usually hoard lip products in my handbag!) - a nivea glamorous gloss in pink sugar, a nivea repair and protection lip balm, and a revlon lip butter in "juicy papaya".

8. What lipstick do you use to rock a red lip?

definitely my Mac "riri woo" lipstick. absolutely gorgeous. 

9. How do you store your lipsticks?

i have 4 lipstick containers where i store my most used (as well as most expensive) lip products- e.g.; all my Mac and Estee Lauder lipsticks in one, all my revlon lip butters in another, all my maybelline vivids/other maybelline lipsticks in the 3rd, and the 4th is where i rotate out colours by season. 

the rest of my lipsticks are stored (with lip glosses and stains) in 4 tupperware containers in my vanity - i store them by colour. i have 1 tub of red, 1 pink, 1 coral and 1 nude.

10. What lip products are you currently lusting after?

i would love to try a YSL sheer volupte lipstick, but they are SO expensive. over $50 AUD. i can't justify paying that for a lipstick. i would also love to try the new urban decay revolution lipsticks as i have heard much about them, and the colours look gorgeous!
