Current Favorite - Lippies!

On to the next favorite post, lippies!! I picked out my current favorites and most used... and they are all pinks :) Don't judge me! haha

Laura Mercier Creme Lipstick in "Evening Pink", Lancome Lipstick in "Rose Candy", YSL Glossy Stain in #15 "Rose Vinyl", MAC Amplified Lipstick in "Chatterbox", Dior Addict Lipstick in 465 "Singuliere", CHANEL Glossimer in #161 "Bagatelle"
Read on for swatches and mini reviews!

P.S. I know the lipsticks look hardly used, but that's because I cut them off at the base and put them in a lipstick palette.

Laura Mercier Creme Lipstick in "Evening Pink"... This is my first LM lipstick, and I must say I'm impressed! The formula is nice and creamy (go figure) and it doesn't dry out my lips. I like using this lippie by just dabbing it on my lips for more of a "stain." It leaves a less intense color that way, and I've really been loving it! This one was a bit tough for me to find, I got it from Nordstrom but I don't see it on their website any longer.

Lancome Lipstick in "Rose Candy"... I love the formula of this lipstick. It's like a cross between the Dior Addict and Addict Extreme lippies. - super moisturizing and sheer but build-able. This shade may have been limited edition, but you can find other shades here.

YSL Glossy Stain in #15 "Rose Vinyl"... This was the first shade of the Glossy Stains that I purchased, and it made me fall in love!! When you first apply the Glossy Stains the formula feels very wet, but if you rub your lips together a bit and wait a few seconds that feeling goes away and you are left with an only slightly sticky feel. The color of these can be worn sheer, or built up with 2 or 3 layers for a much more intense color. So versitile! This particular shade was sold out for a while on the Sephora website, they may have it now but you can also find it here.

MAC Amplified Lipstick in "Chatterbox"... I own tons of MAC lipsticks, probably too many, and out of them all I would say that Chatterbox is the perfect pink! It leans on the warmer side, but not too much that it wouldn't be versatile for many skin-tones. Find it here!

Dior Addict Lipstick in 465 "Singuliere"... This is an all-time favorite of mine. If my fiance and I are in the car and I'm driving, I can ask him to get out my favorite lipstick (of the 12 that I keep in my handbag) for me and he totally knows which one it is!! Now that says something ;)
This lipstick is more like a pigmented lipgloss in a tube than an actual lipstick. The formula is moisturizing and has a nice slip. The shade looks a bit darker on my lips than it shows in this swatch, it's not as milky looking. Find it here or here!

CHANEL Glossimer in #161 "Bagatelle"... CHANEL glossimers are really beautiful, but I can't justify purchasing them unless the shade has actual pigmentation, which this one does! It is a slightly yellow-toned shade with very fine gold shimmer. I think this one would look great on any skin-tone! Bagatelle is limited edition but is still available here.



So, have you tried any of these products? Have any different shades that are your favorite pinks? Share below!!

    1. I'd say Chatterbox is more of a classic Barbie pink, while Impassioned is a darker more intense shade of coral/pink. Did that make sense?? lol
