Lipstick Lovin’

Hello, my name is Nancy & I’m officially a lipstick whore.

I never thought I’d see the day! I’ve developed a major addiction to lipsticks. Before this obsession developed, I only had 4 lipsticks, now I have 11 and one on the way. With the weather transitioning and getting cooler, lipsticks are perfect to wear; especially on a windy day. Pictured are the ones I wear the most (in no particular order)

The Pinks:

L-R: MAC  Lady Gaga, MAC Hue, NYX Strawberry Milk, MAC Angel & YSL Lingerie Pink

The Nudes

L-R: Creme D’ Nude(LOVE IT), YSL Nude Beige, YSL Sensual Silk, Revlon Nude Attitude

…bought Creme D’Nude from MAC and….I’M IN LOVE. I’ve never found a lipstick that worked so perfectly for me. It’s fabulous & such a flattering shade for my skin tone.

I took some shots to add to my Fashbo portfolio which I’ve added to this post as well.

I was oh so happy with how my eyes turned out too! I created a really awesome maroon smoky eye using MAC’s eye shadows in Jest, Sable & Sketch. With a little bronzer & MAC’s Creme D’nude-I feel head over heels in love with this look.

My Signature Look

I’ve pretty much come to the conclusion that I have a major obsession with nude lips. My signature look seems to be smokey eyes & a simple nude lip.

I don’t even know how or when it all started but I was going through my lip products the other day and came across 99.9% nude colored lip glosses!This is just a small portion of the many nude glosses I own!

Nude glosses are simple & versatile and I think that’s why I’m so drawn to them. When I think about the last 10 years, my makeup techniques and looks have come a long way. Ok….ten years ago my signature look was…*cringe*…. snow white eyeshadow paired with a mauve/purple lip. In fact, I think my make up collection consisted of no more than…5 products? Oh goodness, thank god I have come a long way!


Although I have come a far way from “snow white eyes & purple lips” I would very much like to start using lipsticks again. I’ve heard some good things about MAC’s Crème de Nude lipstick. I picked it up this past weekend. I’m very excited. It’s a simple color & can be paired with many different looks!
