Do you reapply your lipstick throughout the day? Why/why not?
If I’m out and about, yes, I will! If I’m at home, not so much.

I do if I have the time or if it’s something I can apply quickly without needing a mirror (one of the real pluses of Sephora’s Matinee lipstick as well as a few tinted lip balms). My lipstick never lasts through my work day and my lips do get dry if I don’t have something on – lipstick, gloss or a balm of some sort.
Same here for me too, Christine. Our running errands/food shopping, socialization or medical appointments, yes, I reapply as needed.
If at home, I hardly even wear makeup anymore. But if I did so like pre-pandemic, I would probably just top off a dry feeling or half worn off lipstick with either a gloss or lip oil.
It sort of depends on the lipstick and whether I am home or out. If I am wearing a somewhat drying lipstick then I will reapply every time my lips feel dry which amounts to about every 2 hours. I know, put a balm or gloss on, Deborah! If I am not wearing lipstick then I put Nuxe Reve de Miel balm on and I do reapply that regardless of where I am, home or out. I am a lip worrier so when I am doing something boring, like driving I will worry my lips and so I keep a Nuxe in my car, in my purse and in my house.
Yes, I don’t like lipstick that stays on all day. I actually like reapplying it.
I apply a liquid lipstick to last all morning so it just needs a touchup after lunch with a lipstick or lip oil.
Yes, I love applying lipstick. It’s my favorite cosmetic. I drink tons of water so it fades. I’m not a lip stain or long wear woman nor do I wear lipgloss. I wear sheer lipsticks in various shades. Holding the tube and applying it make me happy.
YES! When I am out and about and also when I am at home. I love my lipsticks, and they give me joy!
Same. But how often depends on the color and formula of the lipstick.
Yes, I do! I wipe it off before eating and reapply after eating and/or brushing my teeth. I don’t like eating my lipstick or getting it on my toothbrush.

I’m constantly applying SOMETHING to my lips. If I do wear actual lipstick, it needs to be hydrating and/or glossy. I’ve been loving MAC lustreglass in Syrup & Nars satin lipstick in Rosecliff that i will reapply throughout day. Mostly it’s a balm, gloss or mask. My purse always has a NYX butter glosse, this is milky glosse & a Colorscience lip shine – I apply 1 of those 3 very often during the day.
Yes U defubutekt reapply my lipstick during the day – many times over as ut helps to keep my lips moisturised and not feeling dry.. I can apply my lipstick without a mirror too, just whip it on!
If I’m out, yes, so I look nice. Usually after eating or drinking. At home, I’m usually wearing lip balm, which I reapply as needed throughout the day.
Yes I do, as often as needed. I reapply both when out and about and when at home. I love my lipsticks and love applying colour to my lips.
I always mean to reapply, but do I remember to? Not often! Haha. I talk a lot at work so I should be reapplying more often but I often forget unless my lips feel parched. It’s one of the reasons I like the longer-wear formulas: less likely to be caught without lipcolor.
I really only wear lipstick that needs reapplication with a full face of makeup and in that case, I will reapply. For day to day, I wear tinted balms and if I happen to have the tube with me, I’ll reapply but most often, I just put on a clear balm or lip oil once the tint fades completely.
