T applies lip product too thick i think. I guess that's why they don't look as nice as they can look. I don't have too many everyday colour. I got so many bright lipsticks lately, so i think Spice will be nice for a change.
True. When I do my research I always keep in mind that the colours may be off, the way of application might be different etc. I always compare several blogs and get a picture in my head of how it actually looks IRL. I am ususally very close and I have not been disappointed so far, even though I often do minimal swatching in the store.

After wearing really in-your-face make up I also enjoy a more toned down look every now and then. It is always good to have some variation in your stash.

Finally got my goodies. I love Spice lipstick. It is exactly the shade I was looking for especially for work. For fun I dabbed a bit of GAT l/g on it and it actually was pretty that way too. As someone who NEVER buys back ups, I will get a back up of Spice.

Girl!! That is definitely a winner! I'm trying to get more people to understand that sleeping on a brown lip liner is a big NO NO! lol lipsticks like Reel Sexy, Peachstock, Ravishing, etc look AMAZING with a brown liner. I cannot wait to get my hands on Peachstock LOL

unfortunately when i went into my macys counter they didnt receive the Spice set. They had Please Me, Myth, Rebel, Russian Red, Snob, girl about town and Chestnut. I guess they basically got Please Me instead of Spice.

I might order spice if its still available when i order my hey sailor stuff.

Yay! I'm so glad you like it! It's easily one of my favorite every day colors! It's rainy and blah here in Oregon, but I'm holding off 'til Fall to rock it! Getting some good use out of my Watch Me Simmer and Pink Pigeon though. I'm trying to inspire the sunshine, lol.

Love this idea. Do you recommend using the liner all over the lips? Can you recommend a brown MAC liner, I'm NW20.

Thank you so much for your help.

Stripdown or Spice are nice brown lip liners for gals around your complexion. You don't have to fill in your lips completely.. just outline the outer area and blend it by pressing and slightly moving your lips together. Then proceed to put on the lipstick and the gloss (if you desire to use one). Occasionally I use lip liner in lieu of a lipstick (especially on date nights) because once they set on your lips they don't move. They last much longer than lipstick.
