The other night at dinner, my friends and I talked about many things, among them was lipstick colors. Everyone has their favorite go-to shade. You know, the kind you can put on while driving and never look in the mirror. Which reminds me, I need to tell you a funny story later. Anyway, I found this cute little video and it has me wanting to try a new lipstick color, or five. Enjoy!
About the funny story...
One day while driving, Mom reached into her purse for that "go-to" color. You know, the one you can put on without looking. She ran many errands that day and saw just about everyone she knows in her little town. When she got home and looked in the mirror, she realized she had reached for the wrong color. Even worse, it was bright red and outside the lines.
The moral to the story is:
Always look.
I love you Mom! Thanks for not disowning me after sharing this story ;).
PS Have you entered the giveaway?

That is such a cute story about your mom - we've all been there in one way or another haven't we?
ReplyDeleteI have to share this video with my girlfriends….and by the way I bought Geranium Essie nailpolish and it's such a fun summer color! Thanks for the recommendation.
Lisa, yes, we have all been there. I had a friend once who had a long piece of tp coming out of the back of her pants after going to the restroom. We have to look out for each other :)
ReplyDeleteGlad you like the color!
oh oh oh - I LOVE the perfect lipstick. i recently wanted a hot magenta one, like the Kardashians wear, and it took me forever to find something with that pigment. i lurrrrrrrve it tho. hope it doesnt go out too quickly. makes my teeth look whiter!

ReplyDeleteWow -- I love this video! I am always wondering how to do my makeup with different colored lipsticks. I am going to have to research that a little more. ;-) And thanks for sharing that cute story, lol! So funny.
ReplyDeleteOh what a funny story about your Mom. I can relate! It's always fun to try a new shade of lipstick...a great little pick me up. I love Sephora.
ReplyDeleteThat was so cute, and i loved the girl who was getting made up, there was just something so great about her face and expressions! Funny story about your mom, and of course she saw everyone she knew that day... oh brother!

One of my goals for this year was to wear lipstick more often - I'm definitely doing better at it. I have 2 go-to colors and of course I have no idea the names of them right now off the top of my head other than they are MAC. I need to get my Mom to try some new colors.
