We're not all softwood lumber and high seas trawling here at RTK. Tonight's post is lipstick.
Yesterday Tearfree bought herself a tube of Mac Captive for the first time since she gave it up 18 months ago. She originally renounced Captive because she realized she'd been wearing it for 10 years and she feels it's important to change your main lipstick colour every two or three years.
Tearfree's mainstay lipstick since giving up Captive has been Tulip by Bobbi Brown, which she really likes but is too summery for fall and winter.
Now Tearfree has fairly white skin and she needs pink and red tones in her lipsticks. She can't do browns and beiges. Anything too purple brings out the dark circles under her eyes. And if it's too sheer or minimalist, she might as well be wearing nothing, which makes her feel nude.
Can anyone suggest a good new lipstick for Tearfree. Or is it okay to wear the same lipstick colour for 12 years (or forever like Paloma Picasso?) Presumably they wouldn't still be selling Captive if it weren't a great colour

I have full lips so I have always preferred glosses -- lipsticks, particularly matte lipsticks or deeply hued ones, tend to make me look 60 years old and I don't know why that is. So I stick to pale glosses.
If you want some gloss with colour, you can't go wrong with Clinique's Black Honey. It seems to adapt to every skin tone in just the right way.
flip to benefit cosmetics. or for a minty taste, move to origins cosmetics. both are fab. get your colours done at both places et voila - a new shade or two should pop up. glosses i agree will make the feathering/lines of experienced lips look less and less whereast the matte/shear lipsticks might make them appear more - i'm with jacy on that one. fyi jacy - i think that most clinique lipsticks/glosses(as well as YSL's lip stuff) have lead in them. not so good.
What does concened lumberjack have to say?jp
You should try Mtystère by Chanel;)
Sorry, can't help you out here.
JP, just because I"m gay doesn't make me a drag queen.
