Worst lipstick phase?

Original post by jenweaver

This topic came up at work today...
What was tackiest lipstick you ever owned?
Unfortunately I have more than one. How about late 80s
highschool years... kind of a bright
flamingo pink, yet frosty
at the same time. Ick. It practically
glowed in the dark. I was ok during college (didn't wear much makeup)
but then the dreaded dark lip liner, frosty
lipstick
phase. I only did that for a little while,
but in my area it seemed like everyone was doing it. How 'hoochie!'.
The late 90s I went through my dark brown,
matte
phase. Verrrry dramatic. Very pain in the
butt,as it came off on everything. My coffee cup had a permanant
brown ring, and hubby was afraid to kiss
me! I've been
doing pretty good for the last 3 or 4
years, sticking to nudes and glosses, but I'm sure in a few years
we'll be
thinking 'ugh, can you believe I used to
wear such
blah lipstick??'
Who else had lipstick disasters?

I had this too!! That was definitely my worst. Well, that and my 'use brown eyeliner as lip liner' phase, which may have coincided with this lip color

In 8th grade I wore this hot pink frosty stuff, then in HS I wore varying shades of brown, sometimes a light brown with a dark liner...iewwwwwww

in 7th grade, I had a GIGANTIC crush on my music teacher (leave replacement for the preggo teacher.)

He was only there for 3 months, but OMG, I used to drive him NUTS by playing my flute with sparkley glitter green lipstick on, purchased at Spencer's. He would get so mad! One time he even kept me in his office at lunch.

I couldn't count how many tubes of Toast of New York I had...that was after I was nicknamed 'Death Lady' because of my obsession with Blackberry lipstick in highschool. I thought I was soooooooo freakin cool.

when I was in seventh grade I wore this lipgloss that had a number(i forgot it). It was a white pearly irridescent color. It made me look like I had no lips!!



Did you get it in the Commack Flea Market? I think I had one like that.



Oh yeah!!! Remember it used to goop up after a few weeks, so you would go to apply some and a big irridescent blob would come out of the tube???

Don't feel old...I rebelled against my 'immigrant mother' who I thought just didn't understand what it was like at that time...I was too young to be wearing lipstick, dying my hair, shaving my legs...my poor mother

Perhaps I am showing my age, but does the brand 'Wet and Wild' mean anything. We also bought these by numbers, and I had only 2 #s I would wear.

Re: Worst lipstick phase?

I wore a pink frosty one from Mary Kay--I can still remember the scent of it!

I never got into the darks. I tried them on and they looked bad on me and I was so sad because my friends had better coloring for it.

I still like a little bit of a frosty or shiny look but the color has to be very plain.
