Wet n' Wild Lipstick Shades
After my successfully indulgent trip to the drugstore (as well as the follow up online confession), it was only right to expose how the colors looked like in real life. In this photo - I tried to make the lip shades look like a Cingular sign :).
As I've said in my review, the lipsticks are creamy and highly pigmented, and very very worth the money. Something else I found out with these babies? They're not for the faint of heart, and by that I mean, they are high maintenance. These sticks (or at least the colors I chose) need a brush applicator on hand at all times. If you use the lipstick on its own and brave it out, you'll have plenty of cleanup to follow (it's the worst to do cleanup after red lipstick, because your skin may turn pink from either the coloring or the irritation from rubbing). Every time I tried to apply Red Velvet on my own, I was running cleanup interference to the point that I wiped the whole thing off and started again. Did this three times before I gave up and took a brush thankyouverymuch
What do you think? Any better?
I kind of want to get more colors but my wallet is asking that I take a conservative stance with the pending holiday and birthday events. Ever notice how birthdays are always in clusters (and never in the clusters where you have the most discretionary income!)?
Which is your favorite?

I'm really interested in just peachy, but I'm a little afraid it would be too pale on me... -_-
It's true Gaby - your profile picture has your skin tone around the same family as mine. That color would probably wash you out. They have lighter and darker shades too, I'll take a look and see if I find anything better!
