I don’t like lip minis. For starters, they always contain at least one (and often more than one) colour I would never wear but even if I could custom design a lip mini set, it would contain shades I love and wear all the time so I’d much rather just have full sizes. I would love one by the now defunct BITE containing full sizes of the shades I loved from their original (Amuse Bouche, I think) line – shades like Zin and Vigne and Beetroot….

I already kind of like what MAC has done with lipstick mini sets in the past, I just wish they would upgrade their mini format. It’s too… mini; the lipsticks end up being very unpractical to apply.
And also use cardboard or other easily recyclable material for them… and extend the back-to-MAC program to apply to minis as well.

Since my lips are fairly full and wide, mini’s in tube form rarely work out well for me, with the lone exception of the ones by Bite Beauty back in the day. But, I do love MAC Lipglass mini’s, especially when they do more unique, even avant garde shades. So, a set of those would be awesome! They usually do have sets, but not exactly “mini” to me, and usually in the other formula (I forgot what it’s called!), but I have bought a few sets and have always enjoyed them.
Would love a set of those Giorgio Armani liquid lipsticks! (again, my brain isn’t cooperating and so I forget their official name šŸ¤¦šŸ»ā€ā™€ļø)

Not very exciting, but this year I’d love a mini lip oil set from Dior (preferably) or Clarins or Haus Labs. I’m not wearing a lot of lipstick these days and the ones I do wear are faves that I don’t need to see in a set.

Love this idea! I also want Kosas to re-release the trio of lip oil minis in dip, jellyfish and jaws. I panned the first two and loved jaws but lost it before I could really wear it as much as I wanted, and don’t love buying full size lip products. Would repurchase in a heartbeat!

Working in the Airline Industry many years and having to maintain ā€œappearance standardsā€ I always have a lipstick in my pocket (usually Dior 999) which may be why I love mini’s!
I also like being able to try different colors and formulas without a big financial commitment. My dream would be mini NARS lipsticks (same size as their balm minis). Realize it won’t happen but would snap up in a minute. Already buy NARS mini balms and Matte Lip Pencils (Dolce Vita and Cruella). I like the MAC mini’s (Chili) but am heavy into Sephora’s Beauty Insider so prefer to buy there. Also fan of the Dior and YSL Holiday Minis. I will try other brands where mini bullets are offered. Have tried mini glass balms but since they fade fast have not been a huge fan of.

Personally, I am not a fan of mini lipstick sets. The last one I bought was from PMG – and frankly, it was awful. One lipstick broke at the base after a week or two, and the others were dry as dust. A complete waste of money on my part.
Usually they contain shades that I don’t like too. So for my ideal lipstick set, it would be a set of three full sized lipsticks where you can choose the shades you want -like from MAC – I would choose Fresh Moroccan, Devoted to Chilli and probably one of their reds in a creamy finish.
