It’s amazing what a culture can do when it puts people and the environment ahead of squeezing a few more pennies out of every dollar.

Lipstick Advent Calendar Day Nine: Bite Beauty Amuse Bouche Lipstick

Lipstick Advent Calendar Day Nine: Bite Beauty Amuse Bouche Lipstick

I own a million of these Bite Beauty Lipsticks. The entire brand is my holy-grail, desert-island lipstick brand. Even the multisticks are divine. There is something magical in these products. They are super pigmented, comfortable to wear, and seem to self re-apply as the day goes. And the smell. Ugh. So Good. I can’t explain them. I bought one, and I’ve found endless reasons to continue to add…

Lipstick Advent Calendar Day Eight- MAC Cosmetics See Sheer

Lipstick Advent Calendar Day Eight- MAC Cosmetics See Sheer

This is a great MLBB lipstick. MLBB, for those not in the know, means ‘my lips but better’. This shade is peachy and sheer, so it applies easily without a mirror. It’s so great to throw in my bag and have on hand if I know I need to look put together and natural. I’d recommend it for anyone whose coloring leans slightly warm, or for lipstick nubes. If you want something very user friendly, this…

Lipstick Advent Calendar Day Seven: Laura Mercier Creme Smooth Lip Colour

Lipstick Advent Calendar Day Seven: Laura Mercier Creme Smooth Lip Colour

Hmm. Day Seven. Before I get into my thoughts on this lipstick, can I share how weird it is to take selfies everyday? It’s more difficult than I thought to look at my own face so often. Completely and totally odd. But I’m persevering in the name of lipstick. I’m going to be honest, I wasn’t excited by this pick. And in case I haven’t shared, my husband is randomly selecting these lipsticks each…

Lipstick Advent Calendar Day Six: MAC Cosmetics Lipstick in Sin

Lipstick Advent Calendar Day Six: MAC Cosmetics Lipstick in Sin

I can’t stop with these super dark lipsticks. Frankly, I can’t stop with any and all lipsticks, but that’s an ongoing issue. I was in Vancouver this weekend (hence the backlogged posts) and I went to the world’s largest Nordstrom. I swatched and swatched and swatched, and I kept coming back to Sin by MAC Cosmetics. So I treated myself. It’s matte, my favorite texture, and it wore so well…

Lipstick Advent Calendar Day Five: NARS Satin Lip Pencil (Again)

Lipstick Advent Calendar Day Five: NARS Satin Lip Pencil (Again)

Guess who’s back? NARS. That’s who. This time, my lipstick of the day is the NARS Satin Lip Pencil in Rikugien. (I spelled that right after 4 tries, and that’s a win.) This pencil came as a free birthday gift from Sephora, and for longer than I care to admit, I ignored it. It seemed so unremarkable, but I’m here to tell you I COULDN’T HAVE BEEN MORE WRONG. This is the absolute best color when I…

Lipstick Advent Calendar Day Four: Dose of Colors

Lipstick Advent Calendar Day Four: Dose of Colors

This is the perfect time of year for this color. Dose of Colors liquid lipstick in Brick is a deep brown red. I have both positive and negative things to say about this product. First, the good- I absolutely love the color. The pigmentation is great, and the color applies well with one coat. The formula, however, isn’t anything exceptional. It’s comfortable if you aren’t a lip smoosher, like me.…

Lipstick Advent Calendar Day Three: NARS Satin Lip Pencil

Lipstick Advent Calendar Day Three: NARS Satin Lip Pencil

Day Three! This one is a mega throwback. I bought this NARS Satin Lip Pencil in Luxembourg years ago, and I’ll admit that I’ve neglected it as my collection has grown. To be honest, I wasn’t sure if I’d like it after wearing so many different formulas and brands. But I’ll give credit- this lip pencil is amazing! Sephora describes the shade as ‘watermelon’. Pigmented, comfortable to wear, and…

Lipstick Advent Day Two: Bite Beauty Multistick

Lipstick Advent Day Two: Bite Beauty Multistick

Day two’s lipstick is technically a multistick. Bite Beauty is one of my absolute favorite brands, so when they launched these multisticks, I snapped one up. I bought the shade Brioche on a whim, and I like it so much, I’ll likely buy a few more shades. This color is warm. Very warm. And very red. That makes it simpatico with my natural flush. I tend to wear this on low-makeup days. Brioche is…

Lipstick Advent Day One: ColourPop Lippie Stix in LBB

Lipstick Advent Day One: ColourPop Lippie Stix in LBB

My lipstick collection is OUTRAGEOUS. If I quadrupled the number of lips on my face, I still wouldn’t be able to wear all my lipsticks in reasonable rotation. Writing this makes me realize I need to stop buying lipsticks, but in the face of my full blown lipstick addition, that seems unlikely. Instead of spending any (more) money on cosmetics this holiday season, I decided to create a lipstick…

Thanks, Obama. I’m going to miss you and your family. I don’t know if we ever deserved you.

My creative refuge. Makeup does not give me value, it gives me an outlet to express myself. It gives me a medium to build skill. It gives me time each day to myself. I love makeup artistry. It speaks to me, and I love the infinite possibilities. ❤️💄💋 #makeupaddict #ilovemakeup #makeuplife #makeuplove
