My contribution is a lip product that combines three of my least favorite things: drying matte formula, purple, and Kat Von D. It was gloppy after living in the furthest reaches of my vanity for the past year+. Throwing it in the trash will be a pleasure. (I already removed it from my lips.)

Wearing Nars Autumn Leaves to kick off fall makeup and lip challenge.I believe this color has been discontinued but I could be wrong.
Sheer warm orange/whiskey color with shimmer Feels great overall Staying power is very lame, especially for the price It's a keeper, I do not have any other color like it in my collection.
Photos aren't mine.
I was going for a monochromatic look and the eyes didn't come out how I liked so played a little bit and ended up with something I like but a wee bit much for running errands on a Saturday LOL.
I bought a Pur blush palette a while ago, I really like it but the pigment is so out of control. It's easy to get clown cheeks.
Today I dug out a YSL lip color (Tint-in-Balm shade 5--dark berry in the tube, but sheer bright pink on my lips) that I wish I liked better. It should probably be tossed.
I used a MAC gloss I got in a holiday set. It's a pretty basic neutral. I did my eyes up a little more than usual since we're going out to dinner tonight, so i wanted to go light on my lips.

I really hate pale neutrals, so I decided to do this one first. It’s so blah. And it’s matte, and I can’t stand it. As soon as it wears down, I’m putting on lip balm for the rest of the night.
Glamglow Poutmud lip treatment in clear is my lip choice for the day. The lips are a bit flaky, so I’m trying to get them into shape before I pile on the drying matte lipsticks.
It’s a bit tingly and very moisturizing. A little goes a long way. It does a decent job, but once it’s gone, I wouldn’t repurchase it.
Figures I dropped my phone and shattered the glass in front of the camera so no selfies from me for a few days lol. I wore UD Sheer Liar today. I’m close to finishing it and I might try to pan it by the end of the year.
Today I'm using a Tarteist Lip Paint in Delish, which is a pinky mauve like at least 50% of my collection. I stopped using these even though I really like way they look and wear because I usually do my lipstick in the car before going into work, and it's way too easy to mess up my lip lines (and way too hard to fix mistakes) given how fast they set.

Mirabella Tantrum - I believe it's been discontinued, which sucks as it's a great bright hot shimmery pink. It goes on really nicely and leaves a lovely pink tint after food/drink/day.
9/1 was Bite Amuse Bouche lipstick in Virgo. I didn't get any other good photos to show that it can look deeper, but I think this gives a pretty good idea. It's beautiful and comfortable and I love it.
secretlyevil - Bite Glacé is one of my absolute favorites. It’s a great color for when it seems no other lip color will work (like with a fuchsia top.
Yesterday I did two because I was running errands in the morning, then had a dinner in the evening.
Morning - the Balm Read My Lips gloss in Ka-bang. Not particularly long lasting but comfortable and a nice shade. I forgot how much I liked the color. I will keep.
Today... trying Date from the Bite fig/date duo. Meh. The bullet is broken so it’s hard to put on and the color is fine, but kind of boring on me. It’s a rosy brown, and I have other rosy browns, like UD Sheer Liar, that I like more. I plan to try the Fig half later today.
I am so out of practice taking MOTD selfies. I went full fall today with Maybelline Maple Kiss. I love this shade so much. It’s not super long wearing because it’s a cream formula but it’s very comfortable and I don’t mind reapplying.

My makeup is a hot mess today. I couldn’t get anything to work right.
But here’s my lip. I used a bite matte lip crayon. I really like this and the color, and it’s super fall like. I’m definitely leaving this one out, for me to grab.

It also feels nice on.]
We wore the same one!
I just read that! So funny that We both picked it. But it’s such a versatile color, and I always forget about it!
I'm not going to post a pic with this on as it just looks like a clear gloss in pics. I think it's supposed to be a lip topper. It's a clear base with gold flecks in it. Just enough sparkle to go with my mostly matte eye and face look today. Laura Geller color luster lip gloss. I really like the formula and bought all of the color duos last holiday season.
Today I'm wearing MAC Twig, which I remembered pulling very brown on me, but is actually a dusky rose. I can't believe I've had it for several years now and haven't been wearing it because I was misremembering how it looked!

A bit back I was in need of a quick lipstick and went into this random drugstore on the way to an event. I ended up being sold something called Magic Lips. It was green. But it went this lovely pink shade and the tint remained for hours on end. Haven't worn it in ages so tried it again today. Still love it. Weird, but love it.
No makeup today so I’m switching between these two in place of a lip balm. The NYX lip oil is the closest dupe I’ve found to the YSL tint in oil they discontinued. I like the UD gloss ok, not this sparkly shade though. It has a nice minty feel to it.
Went to try the Fig side of the Bite Fig/Date duo. That half was also broken. I couldn't even get it swiped on because of how it had broken, so I swatched it and decided I didn't love it enough to deal with the fact that it was broken, so into the trash the duo went. Also I like the new Bite formula so much more than the old one.
Then I found one of the old Bite Lush Honey lip glosses, the old formula from years ago. I opened that up and saw that the wand was broken and the doe foot was no longer attached. So I threw that in the trash. Next I pulled out a Bobbi Brown gloss that I had gotten with Sephora points, and that container was cracked and sticky. Trash.
Productive morning.
Finally I grabbed a UD Super Saturated Lip Gloss Pencil. I somehow have four or five of these, I think I grabbed them on a few Nordstrom Rack trips. I went for the one in Naked. No pic, but here's what it looks like -

I used a trestique lip crayon that came in a Birchbox or something.
I love the color, and it’s comfortable. It’s a balm type texture so I doubt it’ll last long, but at least it should fade ravenous. I’ll definitely pull it out to wear again.
I didn't get a photo of yesterday's lip, but it was the Bobbi Brown Crushed lipstick in Babe.
Today i decided to go with a fairly new purchase that I'm still deciding on. NYX Intense Butter Gloss in Toasted Marshmallow. I think i like it better when it's a little worn down/worn off. It leaves behind a nice stain. I'll keep it for now, but it might be more of an apply and blot color for me. Sorry for the picture quality.
