I'm just saying! I think not unless you are a makeup artist.
A lot of us BU buyers do that in case they lose the first lipstick and also there have been people in the past (ones that have over 50 lipsticks) that posted pics of used lipsticks and in those pics you could definitely see how much the lipstick was used. If I choose to buy multiples that's my choice and if you prefer differently I won't complain either. If I find out I don't use the lipstick often enough to want a BU anymore I'll just put it in the clearance bin for retail (which it seems like it's more, but in the Netherlands the prices are higher). I've also done cp's in the past for Heroine during the Reel Sexy release. It didn't sell fast that time in the Netherlands and I was able to help a lot of people out. I didn't get my 2nd BU of Heroine until the re-release this year, so it's not like I'm trying to buy everything so others don't get a chance.

True that. I actually buy so I can have one to take with me and have one safe at home. That's only for things I love though. I wish I could come across a venomous villains hoarder lol I search every stinking day for darkly my dear and heartless!! Forget heroine lol

Forget heroine lol
That is one good point. I have a few random BUs, and I def feel more comfotable to take a lippie that has been BUed with me on a trip (or a perm one). I have sooo many lippies though that I don't really need BUs.

Things that make you go hmmm. For the folks that have 50 plus lipsticks and still going.......will you ever really have a chance to use all of your backup?????? Lol I'm just saying! I think not unless you are a makeup artist.
That's exactly why I don't back up anything. I already have a problem.

I buy whatever makeup I want because it's my money. Once I have it it I do whatever (and I mean whatever) I want with it because it belongs to me. Why is this even a discussion (again)? My mama always said stay outta other people's pocketbooks.

I like the packaging on this lipstick and am curious to see swatches. It looks more wearable for me than the Nicki pinks.

I've only bought 2 backups of RRW since that is my favourite red that I have ever tried on and I use it all the time, everything else is singles.

Not at all! Playing with and looking at my lipsticks is my relaxation at the end of the day! By the way, this is my first post. I wanted to join in all the fun!
Welcome!

I'm probably worse than you. I can't use the restroom without applying a different color lippie. I do this several times a day on the weekend when I''m off work!!! Hubby laughs at me when I come to bed with lipstick on....rofl

True that! I see rich people wipe their asses with their money basically and people have a shit fit saying they need to donate. Like sure that'd be nice but really?! You make and earn your money, no one should tell you what to do with it. Unless it causes bodily harm to someone else of course

So it safe to say that you have already started designing your 420 lipstick holder. Lol! The thing is I have been looking at some lustres I currently only have mattes. That the only reason why I dont have more.

Another point to remember - for some people, makeup is very much about fashion and trends, so someone might want the latest hot color to wear for a season or two as a major style statement. If the next year that color is out of the spotlight, does it really matter too much if the tube gets shoved in the back of a drawer? It's waaaaaay cheaper to wear simple clothes but have the latest in makeup textures and colors, than to buy lots of new outfits every season, that's for sure!

If you're the sort of person that mostly wears makeup to enhance your looks subtly, rather than for a fashion statement, yeah, you may not feel the need for multiples of the same nude or pink color, so 50+ lipsticks could sound impossible.

This thread made me count my lipsticks (I had no idea) and I have 76 not including lipglosses. Now that I am a Specktra member, I am sure this will get worse as the months progress LOL! I can't explain to people why I love buying so many lipsticks, but it's like they're part of my wardrobe or something.

would be nice if they come up with something sparkly and girly but that doesn't really match with Rihanna's personality. idk I am not crazy about this news here.

You go girl. At least it's cheaper than 76 pairs of shoes or designer handbags or 76 dresses.
