Shontay, when is the Sephora sale?  This is the F&F sale, right?  Is it another invite/code only?  :~| And lol @ Misfitted.  What is up with quite a few ladies' significant others not liking lipstick?  Do they think you are going to get it all over them or something?  I love makeup but can understand if a man doesn't like wild and over the top makeup but what's wrong with a little lipstick and mascara?  LOL  I don't get it.

It starts tomorrow. They mailed out cards with the code.

LOL! True!! I love to see so many dedicated fans/customers. That's a good indication of the value of the product. Well...usually. Sometimes stuff is just hyped up to be hyped.

But I'm already familiar with Melt and so far I've been happy!

You got everything I wanted to buy besides DGAF because I already have it *goes back to crying about 6six6* Seriously this hurts a lot. But I can justify spending all that on ONE lipstick? And I'm still scared to buy By Starlight at this point.

Chile... I think the only thing that could curb my addiction is babies. And I only say that because I completely stopped buying lipsticks for like 6 months of my pregnancy. But I quickly came right back lol! And the funny thing is I didn't wear a lick of makeup while I was pregnant, only for my wedding and maternity pictures this past June. Even when I'm not wearing makeup I'm still buying LIPSTICK! I think I'm about to get worse because ended a class hosted by a professional MUA and she turned us onto all kinds of different tricks and products. I walked out of that mug with a list of crap to buy! And I made sure to find out what lippies were used on the model lol.

I had to straight out ask my husband this question because he HATES it. He hates the texture of lipstick or gloss on his lips and he hates it getting on him. He's always worried about it somehow getting on his clothes. Sometimes I'll kiss him on the cheek when he doesn't realize I have lipstick on, then he'll go to the restroom and I hear a scream while he's washing his hands, because he just noticed the lip print on his face hours later lmao. You would think he saw blood or something smh... In there yelling "YOU PUT THAT STUFF ON ME WHYYYYYYYYYYY!"

I have to get my shugah while I'm still doing eyes or face because once the lipstick goes on he is running from me like a little boy that doesn't want his mommy's kisses lmao.


I snort laughed at this...

LOL!! Too funny!

But seriously, it is just lipstick. It isn't going to kill him.

Yeah and I was so excited to wear it, I finally had an occasion where it would have been cool to wear it lol! But I go to the grocery store wearing DGAF so I guess any occasion would be appropriate for wild lipstick colors to me lol. Yeah I've heard of ppl using art brushes, but I just can't get into that. I like Sonia Kashuk brushes because they are great quality and they are really soft, plus I can get them on the ground easily. I went to a professional artist's makeup class this past Sunday and she swears by Bdellium Tools. Because they are a smaller company that's geared more toward professionals I just assumed that they would be as exp or more exp than MAC, but she said they are very comparable to MAC in quality and performance and they are cheaper. There's a spot in my city that sells them on the ground so I might get one or two to try them out. I have three MAC brushes and while I like them, I don't even reach for them that much lol. I also like Sedona Lace brushes a lot, I have tons of those.

Two of my favorite blending brushes come from Bdellium Tools. I also use the The 3/8 Lowe-Cornell 270 Maxine Mop. It's an artist paintbrush that's made from the same hair as the MAC 239. It also has the same exact shape. MAC $23 paintbrush $5. Also have you tried the Sedona Lace Vortex brushes? They are awesome. I love brushes almost as much as I love lipstick. I've got high end brushes and cheapo brushes in my collection. I'm actually currently waiting for some IT for Ulta brushes.

Interesting... I wonder if the "inspiration" for the design of a lot of makeup brushes comes from artist tools, I mean it kind of makes sense. Now Sedona Lace Vortex is my FAVORITE set of brushes! I use every last one of them. I bought a backup set of those plus the zippered brush belt. I even bought the travel set because I felt some kind of way about traveling with my full size set after going out of town for work once and almost having my makeup bag taken at security! I was about to have a fit! I bought an IT for Ulta brush last month, the big fluffy powder brush with the silver handle. I wanted the black one because it is SOOOO big and fluffy and it feels so luxurious, but it's not sold standalone and I was not about to buy the set that it came in. I just settled for the other one. I have to really justify those because they are not cheap!

I bought them during the Ulta 20% off. The two brushes you mentioned are the two brushes that I got. Both huge fluffy powder brushes. One with a black handle and one with a silver one. I have pics of the artist brush vs the MAC one some where around here. Lucky for me my sister and my good friend out here both love makeup. I'm the worst of the crew though.

Back on topic. I grabbed Dark Room. If I had to walk I was going to get that color. At the last minute 6six6 jumped into my cart. I can't wait for my lippies.

I thought you had 6six6 already! You're going to love it!

I'm surprised I don't own 6six6. That sort of color is right up my alley. At first the name put me off but that went out the window pretty quick. By the time I wanted it it was sold out. I only have 2 other Melt lippies. By Starlight and Summer. I'm STILL trying to wear Summer without looking like Tyrone Biggums. Any suggestions?

Aahhhh how'd you get the black one! I only saw it in a set and I asked an associate about it and she said it didn't come separately smh.


WOW! I guess in theory, when applying makeup you are "painting a face" so I guess makeup brushes are really not a far stretch from paint brushes!

I bought them online. I've not gone to an Ulta store in a while and they are EVERYWHERE down here.
