My Lipstick Collection: Purples

In connection with the whole Use It or Lose It program, and seeing as it is a new year, I figured I would start taking a good look at my makeup collection. I might actually find things that can be rehomed, which is awesome. I might find dupes. I might find things that have gone off. I figure purple is as good a place to start as any.


There is no real order to these swatches. I just waited for a day with decent light, and slapped them on there. I definitely found a few that I love, and need to throw into heavier rotation...and a few that I really don't know if I need them.

MAC Heroine
Covergirl Lip perfection Jumbo Gloss Balm 260 Plum Twist
H&M Landinksi
Milani Liquid Lipstick Violet Addict


 OCC Lip Tar Lydia
Nyx Macaron Lippie Violet
Maybelline Colorsensational Magnificent Mauve
Nyx Macaron Lippie Lavender


Bite Luminous Creme Lipstick Violet
Nyx Jumbo Lip Pencil Vixen
Maybelline Color Elixer Vision in Violet
Revlon Colorburst Matte Balm Shameless


I see a couple of dupes already, and I am going to put those to the side for a few months to see if their absence bothers me at all. I am a bit of an actual hoarder at heart, so I rarely toss things immediately. I tend to put them out-of-sight for a few months, then toss them.

Is this an interesting sort of post? Maybe once I am finished with the entire rainbow, I'll post my toss/swap list up on the fb page. I recently swapped a bunch of stuff on r/makeupexchange and that went really well. Let me know in the comments if you want to see more posts like this.
