This is for all you LIPSTICK ADDICTS! My Lipstick Collection revealed!
It was requested many times, and I've actually been meaning to do it for a long time now, but I always thought next week....next week....procrastinate ++++. Now, I can't delay it anymore, since I'm leaving my home & country (reason here)
*Please Note: This is what we Beauty Bloggers do, and we NEVER call it "showing-off", okay? =)
That's never the intention. I personally enjoy seeing other people's makeup-collections & how they store them. I mean, we buy & review them, so we also need to see how they live too, no?
Since I put all my lip products in this stack of drawers, you'll see my other lip products too- lipglosses, lip balms, etc.
These are Nayasa drawers I've shown you before. On top there is the Vanity Organizer from Home Stop
3 drawers. Top- Lipsticks, Middle- Assorted/Messy, Bottom: Lakmé
Top Drawer (from back): Kryolan, Rimmel London, NYX, Lotus Herbals, ZA, Essence, IN2IT, L'Oreal, Inglot, Colorbr, Revlon
Bottom Drawer: Only Lakmé lip products.
The middle drawer is full of assorted products & very messy. Let me take out some products, and show you what's under that pile.....
MAC Lipglosses, Nivea Fruity Shines and stuff, Maybelline, Illamasqua, Elle 18, etc....etc
On the side, I put in a Ferrero Rocher container just to keet lip balms and stuff. MAC Tinted Lip Conditioners, My Lipstick Sundae, The Body Shop lip balms, Inglot Lip Paint Duo, NYX Cupcake glosses, Urban Decay Naked Lipgloss, Lip Liners in the right corner there to save space.
In the Vanity Organizer ~ Left row: Maybelline, MAC permanent, MAC Limited Editions. Right Row: Bourjois, Make Up For Ever, Nice-Packaging-High-End combined
Doesn't this look like a lipstick choir? They are singing: "Tik Tok on the clock, but the party don't stop, no...oh oh oh oh....oh oh oh oh...."
The "Special" section:
- Jelly Pong Pong Muffin & Meringue Gloss Set from my blogger friend from Netherlands- Witoxicity
- Shu Uemura Lip Gloss Set ~ Mr.CZ got it for me from Hong Kong many years ago. His 1st make-up present that wasn't on "The List" =) ♥
- In the front are lippies with the best packaging & Limited Editions: Guerlain Rouge G, Lancome Absolu Nu, Max Factor Elixir, Shu Uemura, Skin Food Honey Pot, Etude House Angel Kiss, YSL Rouge Volupte, MAC Give Me Liberty Of London Collection, The Balm, Etude House, IN2IT, MAC Venomous Villains Collection. Right int he front MAC Hello Kitty Perennial High Style Lipglass
Hope you enjoyed this post. It was so tedious lining up the opened lipsticks, and I have never felt so nervous, coz I was afraid I'd knock them over like Dominoes =D
By the way, I've decided not to sell any of them at this time [ I WON'T! I CAN'T! Nahiiii! ]
I will keep the ones I'm not taking to England with me in my traincase & ask someone to keep them for me.
I want to be "The Girl With A Collection Of 5000-10000 Lipsticks" someday.
I really do.

DeleteThanks Rash, happy u love the pics! :))
♥xx♥
I guess you could get rid of the cheaper, easier to find things? Like nivea lip balms and lakme glosses?
ReplyDeleteI have moved away for a year twice in my life, and after the first time, the one thing I learnt is, throw away whatever glosses you arent taking with you.. Because glosses are the first to get icky smells and lose texture...
Also it helps to give some stuff to close friends or people you love.. cuz its KINDA nice to see your things make someone else happy.. KINDA... its not the same as having stuff... but well... :D
I understand what u mean :)....and yes, I'm thinking about giving some away to friends & family :D

ReplyDeleteO__O How do you keep track of these lippies! I'm sure you need a filing system just to know what is where! LOL! Seriously amazing! How do you know which ones are close to expiration and stuff?? SO MANY QUESTIONS! Most important one: Have you counted them all?? :D
ReplyDeleteI always remember Nisha...I also know what's missing- so weird lol. I'd rather not think about expiration dates, as long as they still smell & look the same :D
DeleteNo I have not counted....I started but got tired :D

OMG!! I didn't really believe you when you said that you couldn't take all your lipsticks, but now - Whoooooooaaaaaa!!!! BTW, you should probably contact the Limca Book people and see if they have a category for lipsticks :-))) And they all look so pretty, too!!!!
ReplyDeleteHahaha..nah, it's too less for that still. Maybe in the future :D
Delete♥xx♥
question is, do you actually USE all these lipsticks? (considering they expire quickly)
ReplyDeleteI don't use most of them, actually. I like to collect them more, and use only about 5-10 frequently
Delete♥xx♥
OMG!!! dats more than i can ever own in my lifetime!! whew..i said earlier that i'll not buy any lipsticks but i've changed my mind after seeing ur collection...n now u r not selling any lipsticks :(

ReplyDeletewow u must have had a tough time lining up those lipsticks for the fotos.. this clearly shows ur love for the lipsticks :) very very impressive CZ!!
ReplyDelete(Lipstick) Respect <3
Aww thanks Rekha hehe
Delete♥xx♥
You are a lipstick queen! Whenever I look at the pictures of the lipsticks, I think they are your lipstick minions (Despicable Me),lining up for your orders. They are so pretty and pink! If you don't want to give any away, why not create a makeup collection? I love collecting vintage makeup, you can do something like that. Then later, you can have a museum of makeup. Imagine showing ladies of the future, how our time did lipstick, their colours and styles. :) Okay, I'm daydreaming again~
ReplyDeleteLOL! They are sort of my minions, I guess :P. Collecting them, I am, but don't know if I'll ever have a museum :D
Delete♥xx♥
oh dear..I'm so jelly! You store them so well! Very organised. Thanks for sharing :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Sara :)
Delete♥xx♥
OH MY GOD!!!!!! I can't believe my eyes!!! Dear Cynthia, how on earth do you decide which one to wear? Oh my! I am still amazed, seen the pictures over and over again :)
ReplyDeleteThe collection is awesome, and I love how neatly everything has been kept, but seriously - how do you decide which lippy to pick when you need one? I have only about 7-10 (and I thought I was hoarding too many ;P) and I feel sad for the ones that are kept in my cupboard as they don't see the light of the day, only the two in my purse keep getting repeated :)
And again - OH MY GOD!!!!!!
I can totally understand your not wanting to part with these! :)
recent post: http://ourexternalworld.blogspot.in/2012/07/nails-of-week5wet-and-wild-misty-rose.html
LOL Shilpa! I don't really decide that much, I just pick anything that goes with my eye makeup. To be honest, I still think this is less :P
Delete♥xx♥
I have been reading your posts for a long time now... i just never comment :)
ReplyDeleteI couldn't resist this one thou....What an amazing collection..... m shell shocked !! what a fabulous collection !!! i m dreaming about your sale and you broke my bubble.... NO SALE !!!

Thank u Shalini....for the 1st comment, too :).... I'm still selling other stuff :)
Delete♥xx♥

Hops so Amee :)
Delete♥xx♥
*Hope
DeleteDAYUM!!! That's one helluva collection Cynthia. It's so well organised and I love all the products that you have stocked up. Great stuff!
ReplyDeleteThanks Priya!
Delete♥xx♥
I'd be reluctant to sell off my collection too, so I quite see your problem. Hope you enjoy them for a long time. Personally, I find that cream based makeup (including lippies) stay the longest time if they are stored in the fridge. Maybe you can leave them in your family fridge?
ReplyDeleteThey'd have to have a different fridge just for my lippies & cream blushes then hahaha....so it won't be possible. So sad :D
Delete♥xx♥
WWWOOOOWwww!!!!!LLLLOOOOvvveee the collection :D....very difficult to manage all that but hats off to uu :) ....wwoooowww..still in a state of shock ...
ReplyDeletehttp://in2-myworld.blogspot.in/

ReplyDeleteomg so many lipsticksss.... these are so many... even ur daughter's daughter wud use it for lifetym if we keep aside d 'expiry date' :D
ReplyDeleteWowieee! its a treat to the eyes. So many lipsticks and such variety of shades. :D Loved this post. I totally get you when u say u can't sell these. I feel the same way for my lipsticks. Want to get the load off but then get emotional. :)
ReplyDeleteOOOOOOOOOOO..... it took me almost 1 hr to read this complete post...... so many lipsticks... so many pictures...... wow! i know i will come back to this post at least once everyday for next few weeks or maybe months or.....

ReplyDelete10000 lipsticks... Wow, I could never even think about having that many! What would that cost, $70,000-200,000? It's good that your setting goals though haha ;)
ReplyDeleteOH MY GOD!!!! Those open lippie look like an army of lippies representing the makeup team :P
