Destashed Products 2016- Lip Products
1. Chubby Chap Strawberry Banana and Pina Colada Lip Balms- These lip balms just did not work for me. The strawberry banana flavor just smelled like bananas and was a dry formula that tugged on my lips. The pina colada smelled like oranges and was a very thin and slippery consistency. I found that these actually dried out my lips so they went into the trash.
2. MAC Lipstick in Bombshell- This is such a pretty color but all of the shimmer made it look way too frosty for my liking.
3. MAC Sheen Supreme Lipstick in Blossom Culture- This formula kind of bothered me because it is thick and glossy. I don't really enjoy the texture and I am not crazy about the color either.
4. YSL Rouge Volupte Lipstick in #7 Lingerie Pink- This formula is really nice. It is pigmented and creamy and comfortable to wear and it smells really great. This color just isn't very flattering on me. It is a baby pink with a very strong white base that just washes me out.
5. Marc Jacobs Lip Creme in So Rouge- I believe this was the rouge welcome gift last year. It is a very beautiful red but I don't ever reach for red lipstick and I know I would never use this up.
6. Revlon Lip Butter in Juicy Papaya- I love this formula and I love this color but I got rid of it because I have an Urban Decay lipstick that is almost the same shade and is also newer.
7. Covergirl Jumbo Gloss Balm in 270- These are very comfortable to wear but I have a similar color in a high end formula.
8. Covergirl Jumbo Gloss Balm Creams in Berries N Cream and Parfait- These are comfortable and beautiful colors. Since I have other lipsticks that are similar I passed on these.
9. Nars Matte Velvet Lip Pencil in Cruella- I think this was part of the Sephora birthday gift last year. I never wear reds so I passed this along.
10. Colourpop Lippie Pencil in Skimpy- I am not one for using lip liners, especially with nude lips. I never used this while it was in my collection.
11. Colour Pop Lippie Pencil in Bossy- Since I decluttered both of my red lipsticks from my collection, I had no reason to keep around a red lip liner.
12. Sephora Collection Cream Lipstain in #14 Blackberry Sorbet- This was so dark on my fair skin. It looked way too vampy for my personal taste.
13. Sephora Luster Matte Longwear Lip Cream in Nude Pink Luster- This shade was not flattering on me.
14. Becca Beach Tint Shimmer Souffle in Raspberry Opal- This gloss was just too sheer for my liking.
15. Gerard Cosmetics Lip Gloss in Butter Cream- I bought this because of all the hype the brand recieved on Youtube. This gloss is way too thick and sticky. I also hate the scent. There are so many more lip glosses that I prefer to use in my collection.
16. Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain in Honey- I really like the formula but I am not in love with the shade.
17. Jordana Twist and Shine in Cranberry Crush- I have a similar color in a high end lipstick.
18. NYX Butter Gloss in Apple Strudel- This is my least favorite and least used Butter Gloss. I never reach for it because there are others I like so much better.
19. Covergirl Jumbo Gloss Balm in 216- I have other lip products in the same shade that I would rather wear.
And that's it folks. That is all of the products I have removed from my collection this year. I am so happy that I gave them to people that were so excited to recieve them. I know the people that took them will use them. I am actually so relieved to have so much stuff removed for my collection. I haven't missed anything I have gotten rid of. I am so happy that I have my collection and makeup buying under control. Hopefully any more products that leave my collection will be because I used them up.
