1. I like Bobbi Brown and Prescriptives brands (MAC too).
Edited on Tue Aug-02-05 09:20 AM by Shell Beau
But if I am going to go with a cheaper brand, I like Revlon or L'oreal.

4. No, not really. I mean
I won't buy bright pinks or any bright colors. But I love to mix it up. I usually prefer neutral colors, though.

6. Second favorite would be Christian Dior's Ultra Gloss's "Taste of Toffee"

They are fabulous glosses

3. MAC "O"
Of course, I've never known if it's "O" or "0"

Loved Prescriptives "Outspoken" but it only lasted for one season.

8. City Lips, a pale pink or clear
I would urge you all to go to Sephora and get some. It is without a doubt the best lip product I have used (it's called a collagen plumping treatment.) You will never have cracked or dry lips again. It's a little pricey, but worth it. It comes in a variety of shades, but I like the more subtle ones.

10. Not too purple. Not too brown. Not too red. Not too orange.
Not too light. And not too dark.

Anything that fits with all the above.

12. None at all.
Last time I wore lipstick was 1971. My husband has never seen me wear makeup of any kind.

23. None
I almost never wear makeup, and when I do it doesn't necessarily include lipstick.

I think my face and lips look just fine the way they are now, thanks.

33. I don't really wear makeup - except for special occasions.
When I do I like something subtle like a light pink or something.
