Dollar Tree strikes again!

As we head into fall, I've been contemplating new lip colors. I'm big into gloss, and little-to-no color on lips is a great look for summer, when you want to be "effortless" or "sunkissed" or any of those other summer-look buzz words.
But for fall, i think of bundling up, warm rich colors, darker hair, etc. So i told myself i needed to reach out and try some new lipsticks. I'm notorious for finding something i like, and then buying that similar color in every brand i encounter. Well, a few days ago, I went to our local dollar tree store to find some Halloween decorations, and found Maybelline Wet Shine lipstick! And they are packaged on cards, so no broken, squashed, or "tested out" sticks at all. I bought 10 for $10 and loved almost all of them!

I got:

#30: Flushed
#40: Pink Pout
#50: Pink-a-boo
#73: Strawberry Ice
#90 : Plumscicle
#105: Ripe Plum
#200: Nude Glow

#430: Pink Diamonds (Wet Shine DIAMONDS Lipcolor)
#520: Blushing Diamonds (Wet Shine DIAMONDS Lipcolor)
#570: Ruby Desire (Wet Shine DIAMONDS Lipcolor)

The colors vary from lighter pinks and peaches, to rich berry and red-ish. I always WANT to wear red lipstick, and then i think, "who do I think i am?? wearing red lipstick..." but who DO i think i am? unworthy? lol! So red lipstick i bought, and red lipstick i shall wear. at some point. maybe i'll break it in around the house.


DOLLAR TREE.

GO.

NOW.

I am so there! I never buy new lipsticks because I hate paying 10 bucks for a tube that inevitably always looks terrible on me and I toss it in a drawer never to wear it again.

Wow, you got some great colors!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't wear red. I don't know if it's my skin coloring or because my lips are so damn skinny!

Justine :o )

I have to get over to Dollar Tree! I'm with Bridget, almost every one I buy, outside of my comfort color, looks terrible on me. Do you have any tips for buying lipstick?
