I'm definitely going to try doing that soon! Please leave some flocky lips for the rest of us too! lol
You will have to pry them from my clutching talons. This texture is going to be so much more flattering than retro matte for my dry face, it ain't gonna be funny.

For obvious reasons I hate when anyone asks me if I'm pregnant when I get sick or anything. Ugh. It's okay, you are entitled to your mood!
My family is one of those families that think your life is nothing without children. So it is a big thing when they ask. hate it to the max.

EL luminzers.. these are really awesome, I have the three shown in pic. They can change/alter the shade you are wearing to suit your mood and also finish. The great thing about having a luminzer is that you can quadruple or more the uses for one colour. The grey is amazing (Gunmetal), Foil, and Lame.

must get!

My camera and lighting in my house are both awful and it's a rare day I can get accurate color reproduction. A picture says a thousand words, though so I've gotten over my pickiness and if the photo is way off, I'll just write a few comments along with it.

Don't say "ugh"!! Those lips of yours are beautiful au naturel! When you're a certain age and still have full, colorful lips, it's a major feature - as much as I love lipstick, I have to admit that when there's a day I want to look especially youthful, I do best to wear some eye makeup and leave the lips perfectly bare. That's also why I've been gravitating more and more to pale lipstick colors, since they enhance the shape and fullness so strongly. Lipstick is love, but when you've got it, flaunt it, baby!!!

Gunmetal is literally the only EL lipstick I own. I RUSHED to a store and grabbed one as soon as that collection came out. The sad thing is, i hate that strong, suffocating fragrance they use in their lipsticks. I barely wear Gunmetal, even though it's a perfect dream lippie for me in color and texture, because smelling that horrible smell all day makes my stomach churn. If MAC did something similar (Grey Friday was too opaque), I would hoard the hell out of that puppy.

Take your time

Funny you say that…that's actually where the "juicy flocked lips" came from. We were all talking in the Buzz thread about what lipstick textures would be new and unique and something we've never really seen before, and I brought up matte, flocked texture, like old Liberace flocked wallpaper as something that'd be unique. HG popped in and said "well, as a matter of fact….." and spilled the beans on the juicy flocked lips and ever since, I've gone kookoo for cocopuffs every time she teases us with more. It's seriously been 3 or 4 years now, I think…time flies.

Juicier and juicier flockier and flockiest lips.. lol

on their way darling.. the time has come~!

You are gorgeous - just like Rosie Perez sexxxxy! Mehr looks so different on me - it's one of those colors that looks different on everyone. I'll get around to posting a photo with me wearing it so we have even more comparisons.
I liked SLN the best out of all of them on you too, jenny! You should definitely wear more apricots, peaches and orangey corals, they really liven up your skin beautifully! If your hair isn't as dark now, all you need to do with them is go a shade deeper or lighter or use a soft colored lip pencil with some greyer tones underneath - like a color that's equal to the brightness and "dirty" tone of your hair color - if you're ash blonde, use a pale tan pencil, for example!

Everyone has uneven lip shape! I know I do. I had to sit down and analyze what I needed to do when applying lipstick to make them look more even. For me, I realized that I'd always make one side of my top lip narrower and the other side rounder, just because I held the lipstick tube in the same hand for both sides and it just naturally went on a little different because of that. Once I figured that out, I practiced until I could do the side I'd always draw on straighter and thinner in a fuller, more rounded way, curving it out like I just did without trying on the other side. Now they look even every time, but it took a while before I figured out the trick for me. You'll come up with the perfect trick for you and you will love the results!!!!

I never would of thought you were looking forward to the flocky lips, Liba

Thank you very much! If I can get this wild mane slicked back I'll be sure to try that look out. lol
Try slicking your hair back while it is super wet, like drenched. Then apply a pommade like a shea butter (or any company that makes a wax) or a gel. I have a lot more hair and greys to hide and frizz to combat, and I'm able to get it all slicked own.

flocky is my term.. but it was actually the term used for the prototype.. "Flocky Lips". The idea was to create a matte lip, less drying which would actually make the lips a bit more full. It's smooth on application, matte on finish without being harsh... So, Flocky has happened Took 4 years.. lol.

Of course it was you HG. Are these the fabled frost mattes you've been talking about or are they entirely different? Thanks for the knowledge.

And congrats on making flocky happen.
