LIPSTICK or LIPGLOSS???

I prefer gloss. Lipstick had always seemed a little too "grown up/old lady"

for me. I like super-moisturized lips, and I'm just now coming to terms with having full lips & rocking a bold lip color so the sheerness of glosses have always attracted me. Lastly, I like flavored lippies so I've always been turned off by the waxiness of lipsticks.

In the last few weeks, however, I've purchases 2 MAC lipsticks (Sweetie & Viva Glam VI) and an Avon lipstick so I'm learning that there are certain formulations that are less "lipstick-like" which I can deal with.

I'm working up the nerve to rock a red lip! You ladies give me confidence to start rockin' bold colors!

Well that all depends on the texture and pigmentation of the product and the finish I want in the final look. I like both, sometimes alone, sometimes together.

The 174 brush is like 70bucks. It's a pro brush... 30 DOLLARS THOUGH, that's amazing!

but to answer the poster's questions. I'm a lipstick kind of girl (They last longer, better color payoff and you can always top it off with clear glass) HOWEVER, i wear lipgloss more often because I'm lazy.

AND my favorite finish is amplified

Get me one too!!

I was wrong about the Brush...Looked at mine paid 49.95 at the CCO for my 174's ...you got a mismarked...Good for you!! and I bought 2 of them ...thinking $50 was a deal!!

I love lipgloss because of the shine and just the glossy texture and the stickiness of it. also like flecks that are added to it so in just the right light there's that sparkle. Mmmm

I'm more of a gloss girl... I definitely favor MLBB looks, no matter what the rest of my face is doing. I flip flop though. In HS, I was a lipstick girl, but since I was about 20 til about now, I've favored glosses.... only juuusssst now getting back into lipsticks and of course, I'm sticking w/the MLBB theme. Boring, perhaps, but it's my preference, ya dig?


P.S. after swatching Lavender Whip, I can be convinced to pair it with my Currant pencil, but since it's sold out and never made it to my ligtly trafficked Dillards counter, I might not ever know, LOL.

I'm sorry if I make you mad, but:

Currant + Lavender Whip was one of the first looks I tried when I came home with LW and it is THE SHIT!

hmmm.... I love both but...Lipstick . Some lipsticks have a bit of sheen and arent drying. I love Mac lipsticks but my current favorite is from too faced and the color is Totally Nude...It comes in metallic pink package!! very cute and the color is the best. Very creamy like Macs amplified cream and luster had a baby.

I like both but I wear lipsticks more. I have three times more lipsticks than lipglosses. And I either wear a lipstick alone or a lipstick with a lipgloss on top, hardly a lipgloss on its own.
