How do you resist a "collect them all" mentality?

How do you resist a "collect them all" mentality?

For me, it’s been a lot of trial and error to gain self-awareness of that type of mentality, where I suffer most from it, and then just reminding myself why it’s not a healthy mindset for me. I often review all shades in a makeup formula, so I can get away with it there, but I’ve noticed it...

Have you ever purchased a mega set or vault?

Have you ever purchased a mega set or vault?

I have! The one that stands out to me is Tom Ford’s Boys & Girls lip color sets; I know I purchased one of the sets that included a black lacquered box with 50 shades in it.

What do you like about orange lipstick? What don't you like?

What do you like about orange lipstick? What don't you like?

Tell us what you love and hate about...

Orange Lipstick

I rarely find myself reaching for true orange lipsticks; I’m more likely to go for a copper hue or a coral, so something lighter and not as neon/intense as a true orange. Though I’ve had readers compliment me when wearing orange lipsticks, I just never gravitate toward them… it might have more to do with how bold/bright/intense my eye makeup is 90% of the time, though.
