I broke that rule a few months ago of course. I wear a different one each day and am now compromising on only replacing my 6 favourites so when I finish up a non favourite, I will replace it with a different make or shade to keep the variety. I constantly reapply so I'm actually using them up but there's nothing like a brand new tube of lipstick to dive intoSelinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18215629620223943455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3782156712187785095.post-47312374306885098042013-09-18T06:43:15.210+01:002013-09-18T06:43:15.210+01:00I do not feel alone anymore.

Oh deer! <br /><br />I also have a tendency to buy lipsticks because of their name, I just love a catchy name! <br /><br />I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one though : D xxxAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3782156712187785095.post-44651703089723874232013-06-18T18:17:49.533+01:002013-06-18T18:17:49.533+01:00I like Rimmel lipsticks but I tend to accumulate w...I like Rimmel lipsticks but I tend to accumulate way too many of them in one go because I always buy them on offer making it instantly almost impossible to finish any of them up! I'll have to look into the shade 'Retro', I'd like to think that maybe out there is my perfect lip colour and fellow beauty lovers' choices are as good a place as any to start looking :) xxAngelica Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00430677445803549278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3782156712187785095.post-1596639335914319652013-06-18T18:07:47.041+01:002013-06-18T18:07:47.041+01:00I'm definitely with you on half sized ones!

I've only ever finished one, I think it was called 'Retro' by Rimmel and I was utterly obsessed with it from the age of 17-18, I wore it pretty much every day! I'd never manage to finish one now, my collection is too big! xoaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13889814058017627931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3782156712187785095.post-62494926741416003512013-06-18T17:56:59.242+01:002013-06-18T17:56:59.242+01:00It probably does, or we're just fickle.

I think that if lipsticks were 2g instead of 4g I would definitely have finished a few by now but 4g of product just seems like too much for me to get through.

I also know exactly the phenomenon that you're referring to in regard to not using the repurchased item- maybe it has something to do with the pleasure of the new? xxAngelica Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00430677445803549278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3782156712187785095.post-48775271760614651132013-06-18T17:15:52.155+01:002013-06-18T17:15:52.155+01:00I've finished several lip balms, but never lip...I've finished several lip balms, but never lipstick. Maybe if Lipsticks were the size of lip balms or even smaller I could finish one, haha! I wouldn't mind half-sized lipstick. I think that's a good idea. Then we could still have the wide range of options and be a little less wasteful especially because the stuff expires. Possibly.
