Favourite Lipstick/Lipgloss Swatches

Do you have a few favourite lipsticks/lipglosses that you always wear eventhough you have many other lipsticks in various colours ? Well, I'm guilty of that. I have loads of lipsticks and lipglosses but I tend to wear back the same ones and the same shades.

From L to R :

Anna Sui Rouge S373

Anna Sui Lip Gloss 601

Stila Lip Polish - Sheen

Laneige Snow Crystal Melting Glossy Lipstick - YR323 Nude Orange

Stila Lipstick - Serena

Stila Long Wear Lip Colour - Exquisite

My shades are either pinkish nudes or brownish nudes. I just can't seem to accept other colours like red (urgh!), mauve, orange, peach or corals.

Do you face the same problem?

I have swatches of other colours but these are rarely used.

Laneige Lipstick - LRC 3

Paul & Joe Lipstick CS044

Stila Lip Glaze Stick in Vanilla

Paul & Joe Lip Gloss 03

I have many more lipsticks still new in the box unused. Do I stop buying more ? No ! I continue buying. Why do we women do that ???

Stila Lippies

I hardly use eyeshadow and blusher products, so I indulge myself with lippies, i.e. lipsticks, lip glosses, lip glaze sticks, etc. Looking at my collection, one would expect a wide variation of colours. But, I tend to buy the same shades over and over again. My favourite shades are the natural, earthy, pinkish colour. I especially love Stila lippies, so when Stila Malaysia had its closing down sales, I took the opportunity to get myself "some" lippies.

The 5 lipsticks I have are diane, tina, aida, pixie and serena. Hmmm, not that many huh ? Stila is my largest collection of lippies and coming in a distant second will be my Anna Sui lippies. Other than that, I have a few each from Paul & Joe and Laneige.

At first, I thought of doing a swatch of all my Stila lippies but after taking stock, I decided not to. My lips would be a disaster after the swatches. But, I can still do the ones that are requested.
