2014 Lipstick Challenge


I am a massive lipstick junkie. This is not a surprise to most people. The problem is I don't wear the majority of my lipsticks on a daily basis. Usually I just wear the same 2 or 3 colours and they're not even my favourites! I just don't know what is wrong with me. So this year I decided to challenge myself to choose a different lipstick every week and only wear that lipstick. I don't wear makeup everyday but on the days I do wear makeup I'll have to make use of whatever lipstick I chose on the previous Sunday. I'm not much of a fan of paler lipsticks, although I do own a couple, so on the weeks that a paler lipstick has been chosen I'm going to be mixing things up with different coloured lipliners. Starting this Sunday you'll see my first lipstick post and I'll keep you guys updated with my weekly lipstick choices complete with on lip swatches. YAY! I'm excited to get to play around with my lipsticks more and make sure they all get some use this year because what's the point of having them if they don't get to enjoy the sunlight every once in a while?

  1. Yay! That's such a cool project. What is the boldest lipstick colour you own?

    1. Most of my lipsticks are relatively bold. I own quite a few vampy reds and purples but my favourite extreme bold is probably 'Rouge Noir' from Chanel. :)

  3. I have not that huge a collection of lipsticks but I have quite a few and I tend to always wear the same... I see that you have 5 or 6 Chanel lipsticks! I have the equivalent of Rouge Noir, called Lune Rousse now, and I find it gorgeous but so hard to wear. This is a cool project, I'm eager to read your next blog post :).

    1. So glad you like this idea. I agree that those incredibly vampy shades can be difficult to wear. for me, it depends on my mood sometimes I put it on and feel foolish but other times I just think it looks great and would happily wear it anywhere. Although I love sheering them out with some balm when I'm feeling a little more timid. :D
