mosyluFor someone who hardly ever wears it on a regular day (I can reliably put on moisturizer, concealer, and foundation and that's about it) I sure do enjoy buying makeup. Today at Walgreens I found a new kind of lipstick with a very very shiny tube, on buy-one-get-one-half-off special. My kryptonite - sale + shiny.
One is a very sweet and subtle kind of peachy tone. Okay, nice enough. The feel of it was nice, too. The lipstick I do wear on a regular basis is most often tinted lip balm because I hate the waxy, drying feel of actual lipstick. Look, folks, I live in the desert; everything I put on my skin has moisturizer in it somewhere or I will turn into the damn Mummy.
This lipstick I found today has oil or something in it so it feels very smooth and moisturizing without being a gob of goop (looking at you, lip glosses). So all right, even if the color won't set the world on fire, I also won't want to scrub my lips and then apply half a stick of lip balm.
The other that I got in the deal is a deep, deep plum. I put it on and I look like I should be cracking a whip and telling hapless men that I am Madame Von Payne and I cost more in an hour than they make in a day. When I blotted, it was actually purple on the paper.
I am delighted.
