Do you wear the same lip color most days?


Do you wear the same lip color most days? Or does it change quite regularly?

Changes every day… even multiple times during the day šŸ˜‰

Lip products make up the majority of my collection, so I like to get full use out of it and wear a different shade every day. I get through 6-10 shades a week, often wearing two different lips in a day depending on what I’m doing. In the summer months, I tend to wear more nudes, pinks, corals, and fuschias. In the winter months, it’s more red, purples, and vampy shades. šŸ™‚

I change them according to the season, the outfit, my mood… sheer glosses are my go-to’s when im busy that way i can just throw on whichever one i pick first.

I usually wear a nude gloss on the days that I work and on days I’m in class (esthetics) I usually wear a red or plum (now that it’s Fall). It mostly depends on my mood and eye makeup but it’s always either a nude, red or a deep plum.

I have four or five every day daytime colors that I keep in my purse and wear most days, sheer reds and plums mostly. But I do switch it up sometimes, and have an excess of other colors around.

Considering I work almost every day, I don’t have the chance to have a revolving door of colors so I’m typically busting out MAC’s Lady Danger or Blankety. But when I get the chance to have time off I’m nuts for crazy colors like Vegas Volt, Candy Yum Yum or just recently I got my hands out Flat Out Fabulous and can’t stop using it.

Christine – I have a request, didn’t know where to ask. Could you please do a review of the Chanel’s new skincare wardrobe – Le jour, Le nuit and le weekend. Pretty please? I don’t have Chanel in my country, but I really like the idea and wanted to buy it online. I trust your reviews and was thinking if you could do them.. soon perhaps. šŸ™‚ Also, suggesting if this skincare is good for dry skin types or not.

Thanks a billion

Assuming I don’t have anything new to test out, I try to take different things out from my stash! I have accumulated so many that sticking to one seems a little unfair to the rest, though I do have a couple of emergency go-tos in my purse in case I need something quick šŸ˜‰

Ever since school starts, I just reach for my most trustworthy Revlon Just Bitten Balm Stain in Honey everyday, it’s such a lovely my-lip-but-better shade, and lasts very long as well.

I’m almost always found in a light pink, my fave being MAC Please Me (or one of the couple of close dupes I have). Though lately I’ve been using a Rimmel shade (‘Guest List’ a corally pink with slight shimmer) a lot. I find most other shades make me look too overdone.

I tend to do my lips in the car (after I’m done with that morning commute coffee!) so my selection is more limited. I keep a few different shades in my makeup bag and try to change them up once a month or so. Lips aren’t really my thing, though, so the limited selection doesn’t bother me much.

My lipsticks may change most days, but my COLORS are almost always the same. As much as I would love to pull off a red or bright pink lipstick, I never can. So my lipsticks are always pinky-nude or my-lips-but-better colors. So yes and no šŸ™‚

I wear basically the same type of color (MLBB), but I try to change it up a little bit. I work at a law firm, so natural is key. I’m trying to step out of my comfort zone at least a little bit and wear something a little more pink sometimes or a little more nude, but I do still have to look professional.

When I first started wearing makeup, I had exactly two lipsticks – a nude and a berry red. Now, I have as much lipcolours as the rest of my makeup stash combined! With a collection that big, I tell myself I’ve earned (or purchased, rather) the luxury of getting to wear the EXACT shade I want every day. Stash ranges from nudes to pinks to reds to purples to browns, but my everyday choices usually fall somewhere in the red/brown family.

I have a lot of lipcolors so I try to change it up regularly. Of course I do have colors that I fall in love with, like NARS Luxembourg or Maybelline Fuschia Flash. And the moment I bought UD Anarchy it was on my lips!

NO! I do a different eye look pretty much every day, which normally calls for a different lip color! But in general, I do more bright/neon/rose/mauve/peach during the summer, and more dark/vampy/red/burgundy/dark purple/nude (with dark eye makeup) during the winter.

I get into phases of wearing the same colours – normally my newest purchases – but I do switch it up. That said, I’ve recently been cycling between L’oreal’s Balmy Gloss Stick in 909, Bourjois Shine Edition in 1, 2, 3 Soleil, and a couple of nude/peach shades.

I really try to vary my lip colour daily because I have more lip product that one could possibly need in a lifetime, but lately I’m so guilty of just slapping on flesh tone tinted lip balm. When I get bored of that, I wear something a little sleeker or darker for a day or two to get my lipstick fix and then it’s back to the balm. My latest lip fixations are MAC Heaux and MAC Midnight Mambo.

There are phases when I’m really hooked on one lip color or I really want to shop my stash and use up a color if I have just a bit left of one lipstick. But usually, it just depends on my mood, the clothes I’m wearing, the season… it’s more often than not that I change up my lipstick daily.

Michelle Avatar

No way!!! I love to change my lip color on a daily basis depending on my mood, the weather or what I’m wearing or how I’m feeling. It’s no fun sticking to the same color day after day. I love to mix it up & have fun, plus I have so many colors to pick from.

Jackie Avatar

A few years ago, I used to wear variations of the same color, but I’ve branched out a LOT more since then. I usually wear different shades from day to day but stick with one shade throughout the day. I have way too many lipsticks not to switch it up regularly!

Nikki Avatar

During the weekdays, I tend to reach for MAC Spice lipglass. I only change up my makeup looks on the weekend when I have more time to play in my collection, so my lip colors usually changes for the weekend.

Jan Avatar

I change it up and layer like crazy to try and make sure my neutrals are truly neutral, and the colored shades are wearable. Always mixing it up. No HG brand or shade in the last 10 years. Not even close.

Rachel P Avatar

I rotate my colors frequently, every day for sure and usually throughout the day- I get bored of one thing and love to experiment! I do keep some emergency lipsticks/balms in my desk at work that go with anything, and I don’t need a mirror to apply them, so I suppose they get a bit more use than anything šŸ™‚

I used to wear some form of red almost all the time but the finish would change from matte to creme to gloss sometimes within one day. Now because I’m older and styles have changed I tend to go lighter a lot but I still gravitate to the reds and burgundies if truth be told though I still siwitch it up often sometimes several in one day.
