xD I tend to use the lippies I don't use as much when I'm sitting around doing nothing, so it kind of defeats the purpose of the lippie! I should just use it. Hahahaha.

Hahaha, I do the same!

Because yeah, even when I'm sitting around with the lip color on for no reason, I get bored and want to try another one on!

^^ Is this normal behavior, or is this some kinda makeup-obsessed behavior that only we're capable of pulling off?

Um, given that many people don't even where makeup to work, out on the town, etc, I'd say it's the latter.

Yes, it is very orange red on me as well. Its really sad because I love corals and orangey colors but they HATE me.

Good idea.

Too bad I didn't get Splendid though.

 

[rocking chick]

I didnt purchase Splendid too but I have similar coral lipglasses, so I use them as replacement.

Definitely the latter.

I've been exhibiting this sort of behavior since I was a preteen.

I put on make up, especially lipsticks, an innumerable amount of times eeeeeeevery day. I have never, ever in my life, gotten tired or bored with trying out lip combos and doing eyeshadow swatch combos on my hands and arms.

 

[dreamer246]

I know, anyway, the best time to experiment is in the comfort of your home!

So that provides justification for us makeup addicts.

Besides I don't ever hit pan on anything, I don't feel like I'm "wasting" makeup by putting them on at home.

I was going to get Coral Polyp last week but I was afraid that it would look to bright on my lips. I wanted to get Splendid but I'll probably wait for it.

From what I have seen on this thread, you either love or hate Coral Polyp. Hopefully you can try it on your lips before buying it.

 

[GlamQueen21]

Hopefully that I will. It looks so pretty when I saw pics of it in the Product Swatches board. Maybe I'll purchase it soon if they still have it.

I caved in and got the Wisteria trio, I was supposed to save all my money to BBR but the colours were just so me that I couldn't resist it even though tha packaking in still hideous IMO.

Aww, that's so sweet

The colours really are so me, that's why I could get past the hideous packaking.

 

[GlamYOURUs]

Coral Polyp makes my teeth yellow. lol I think its well suited on fairer tones.

Thanks!! I am IN LOVE WITH IT. I normally dislike purples on me but the soft lavender that was created by mixing Dame's Desire and Climate Blue together is just sooooo gorgeous. :[ I'm gonna miss wearing it to work, but at least that look helped soccer moms know that Dame's colors were wearable.
