I think I need Lancome's Gris Fumee eye palette. I mean, this taupe eyeshadow monkey is on my back in a big way.

and we decided we'd extend the nudes out for the whole week.
I totally forgot about changing colors and wore red on Sunday, and than I put on the Pantone Marsala lipstick because I was dying to try it. We can extend them but
we're starting a different lipstick for a year as well, right???

That's a very nice palette!! When do we start? I'm looking forward to it. I went through all of my palettes to ID taupes. I think I'm ready!!!

I think I am ready too. I usually don't spend on palettes like this ( Gris Fumee costs for 5 shadows almost what Naked palettes do for 12 shadows) but this is one Lancôme palette that looks like every single shade could work for my skin (doesn't hurt that Lupita Nyong'O is repping the Bright Eyes Collection)

Ok so what are the parameters---do you want to start Jan 1 and go to Jan 14? This is going to be so much fun because we can wear any lipstick we want, just a
different one each day.

Lupita is GORGEOUS! I say get the palette Sage...you've earned it.

Hi Mango. Welcome home!!! I don't wear gloss on bare lips so I'm not a good judge for anyone who prefers to wear it that way. I did try the Dior Fluid sticks on bare lips because I thought they might be more like a liquid lipstick, but quickly found they are not. I do wear them over lipstick and enjoy them more that way.

In the YSL Baby Doll Kiss and blush line, there are two oranges that are nice: Corail Affranchi (Med Orange) 07 and Orange Fougueux (Dark Orange) 04
I'm glad you love Gipsy!! Like you, I remain on the hunt fro my perfect HG orange lipstick!!!
I also thought the Fluid Sticks would be actual liquid lipsticks and when I tried it I was so disappointed, but I like it now. I like a gloss if it's very pigmented otherwise I wouldn't wear it much.

I've been thinking about the YSL ones for a while, but I keep forgetting to swatch them when I walk by the counter. Maybe I'll check it out in the next few weeks.

I think 2015 will be a great year for orange lipsticks. MAC alone has three oranges coming out in the spring/summer collections that have info (I'm sure there are many more that are yet to be announced) and more than likely other brands will follow.

I can do two weeks of taupe. It will help me get through the chaos of the new year. I am off to get the palette at lunch! And maybe a new cardigan or two.

hello ladies!
i'm ready for nudes this week and also for officially starting the different lipstick every day from the 1st of january. i marked some nude shades in my spreadsheet, so i'm ready to go!
i'm also going to start the taupes from the 1st. it might be a good thing since the lipsticks could potentially vary a lot, so taupe will be a good balance!

I hope you're feeling better Pretty! I have migraines AND sinus problems and hate it.
Very pretty. No booty but gift cards lol. No lippie yesterday xmas eve ha D to work super early. On Christmas I was in the bed all day with a migraine and sinus pain all day. My whole head hurt. And I missed our dress up dinner. But get this I was more concerned about work Friday because I can't work like this but we are in our season where we can't take days off idk what to do. Head still hurts. I hate having to debate this. I'm down for whatever challenge. I'm happy to say I've purged so much the last few Months I Prolly have 5 months worth of lipsticks.

Hey ladies! I hope everyone enjoyed Hanakkuh/Christmas/day(s) off! I see that I need to step my lipstick game up. I thought that I had too many because all of them won't fit in my lipstick drawer. Not that I'm sad about buying more lipstick. Lol. I still need to pick up the Mac satin taupe and the Nars eyeshadow that I can't remember. I have some other tables in a couple of palettes to get me through until I make it to the mall. I have a couple of Nordstrom notes so maybe I'll use them to pick up these eyeshadows. For the family pics, I went with neutral makeup. In hindsight, I should have worn more color on my lips.
