Please help us streamline the comments' section and be more efficient: double-check the post above for more basic information like pricing, availability, and so on to make sure your question wasn't answered already. Comments alerting us to typos or small errors in the post are appreciated (!) but will typically be removed after errors are fixed (unless a response is needed).

We appreciate enthusiasm for new releases but ask readers to please hold questions regarding if/when a review will be posted as we can't commit to or guarantee product reviews. We don't want to set expectations and then disappoint readers as even products that are swatched don't always end up being reviewed due to time constraints and changes in priorities! Thank you for understanding!

PML Soft Core, ND Muse,CT Pillow Talk and Lisa Eldridge Velvet Blush….for gloss, all PML’s Prima Donna,
Pale Fire and Bronze Venus….can’s beat PML’s gloss! Oh, and occasionally Dior lip oil in pink or rasberry!

I’ve been using a lot of glosses for the days when I want a natural look, particularly NYX’s Sugar Rush and NARS Orgasm (the stick kind, not liquid). In lipstick, I’ve been gravitating towards my autumn colors for some reason so Smashbox Cognac and MAC Mocha have been getting a lot of use.

A friend from Twitter just bought me a bunch of lipsticks because I mentioned that I had never really worn any after my lips were insulted as being too thin, so I have 11 various shades of red and pink in my rotation to play with and see if I like. The one I’m wearing today is More Ruby Ultimatte by Maybelline.

Fenty Goji Gang and Lipstick Queen Frog Prince and not often but it’s with me Revlon Wine With Everything (Pearl).

I love Red Dahlia! I have a tube in my school bag, one in my gym bag and one in my purse makeup bag. I just looked and I also have one right here in my desk drawer! I apply/reapply often, especially at school, since my lippie wears off during the day and I’ve no time to search out a mirror and reapply. It’s so great!

I have a bit of a grudge against Tower 28 because of the ridiculous price they charge for their SOS spray (it’s hypochlorous water that I get from e11ement for about 1/3 the price) but I just looked at those lip balms and think I might need one in the shade Drink (or maybe Shake).

Well if you like easy to wear , comfortable tinted balms Tower 28 tinted balm as well as Red Dahlia are good options. I find Tower 28 mostly an overrated brand . Too expensive for what it is but it was the Sephora Spring sale and I caved. I do like their lip products!

Old ones I only wear in spring: Bobbi Brown artstick in Punch, my beloved YSL Rouge Rose, and an old very warm light pink (also Bobbi Brown)

It has still been cold where I live so my lips need something hydrating, and the Givenchy Rose perfecto liquid balm in 011 Black Pink checks this box. Chantecaille Acacia is in rotation almost all year round. An honarable mention goes to Chanel Rouge Allure Velvet in 108 Terre d’Etoiles, which is pretty a soft brown but the formula isn’t the most hydrating.
