I like tinted lip balms the majority of the time. Not that lasting though. Another moisturizing lipstick is Revlon Lip Butter. </p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lipstick-booties---update#post-1056793 Sat, 19 Oct 2013 18:30:56 +0000 donnat 1056793@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great post Shannon! I had the same feeling about mac lipstick, especially in winter. I will have to try the Lise Watier. Good to hear about the bootie recommendation too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lipstick-booties---update#post-1056241 Sat, 19 Oct 2013 02:34:34 +0000 Adelfa 1056241@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am testing the hypothesis that I'm not a lipstick girl either, but a tinted lip balm girl. My current favorite is NYC Applelicious glossy lip balm, available in drugstores. The Apple Blossom and Big Apple Red are surprisingly lovely pink and soft red tints, and I actually don't mind the taste--it's more tart than apple-y, like a Granny Smith.</p> <p>Yay for comfy booties, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lipstick-booties---update#post-1056211 Sat, 19 Oct 2013 02:12:55 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1056211@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's kind of validating that some of you have also found MAC lipstick so drying. And thanks for telling me about your favorites -might have to check some of those out. </p> <p>Ornella - good for you on knowing you prefer gloss. I do actually like MAC Lipglass when I feel like wearing gloss.</p> <p>Nicole - I'm definitely going to check out more of Lise Watier's line. Thanks for the tips. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lipstick-booties---update#post-1056161 Sat, 19 Oct 2013 01:07:13 +0000 Nicole D 1056161@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sounds like you can put a Lise Watier lipstick on everybody's Christmas gift list! &nbsp;I love &nbsp;her stuff, and her face creams are to die for! &nbsp;There is a new one with Labrador tea extract that is so rich - it's luxurious. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lipstick-booties---update#post-1056117 Sat, 19 Oct 2013 00:08:51 +0000 rae 1056117@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The Aras sound dreamy for the feet. Crossing my fingers that they make a style that feels like me one of these days! Congrats on two seasonal scores. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lipstick-booties---update#post-1056006 Fri, 18 Oct 2013 22:35:04 +0000 Ornella 1056006@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm&nbsp;glad you've found your product.</p> <p>Just today I had an "aha! moment" about lip-stuff in general: lipsticks are no longer my thing. Regardless of the moisturising qualities, or lack of,&nbsp;I actually am lip-gloss girl.</p> <p>Regarding Aras, I can vouch for their comfort and&nbsp;quality too, but my shoes (flat Mary Janes) overstretched so much that it appears I could have easily size down next time I buy from the brand.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lipstick-booties---update#post-1055982 Fri, 18 Oct 2013 22:12:21 +0000 Caro in Oz 1055982@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Darn it's a Canadian brand. Lipstick is&nbsp;the bane of my life, for all the reasons you mentioned&nbsp;:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lipstick-booties---update#post-1055954 Fri, 18 Oct 2013 21:57:45 +0000 Vicki 1055954@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is such great feedback, from head to toe, Shannon. That's outstanding news on daily mileage you can put on the booties. I've never heard of Lise Watier lipstick. Is this a Canadian brand? It can be frustrating to have lipstick this is drying and then when you want to apply more color, the poor little lips can look even worse as they're dried out WITH lip color. </p> <p>As Neel said, I found a low-budget one by Revlon called Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain lipstick and they are chubby pencils that look like crayons, which makes almost fun to use. They are moisturizing and the color is long-lasting.</p> <p>Now, off to search for your lipstick brand. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lipstick-booties---update#post-1055932 Fri, 18 Oct 2013 21:32:30 +0000 deb 1055932@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yea to comfy feet and pretty moisturized lips </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lipstick-booties---update#post-1055866 Fri, 18 Oct 2013 20:34:31 +0000 Inge 1055866@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh thanks for sharing this, Shannon. I have the same problem with MAC lipsticks and am going to see if I can find the Lise Watier brand here.<br />Brilliant news about the booties, they are going to get so much wear! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lipstick-booties---update#post-1055753 Fri, 18 Oct 2013 19:07:24 +0000 Neel 1055753@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I hear you on&nbsp;the *desert* lips feeling!! &nbsp;I had never invested in good quality (moisturizing-wise)&nbsp;lipstick until I realized the damage they were doing to my lips (pigmentation and extremely chapped lips). &nbsp;I didn't know lipsticks could dry your lips? (How dumb could I be?!)</p> <p>For now I love two of my lipsticks (Maybelline Color Sensation Moisturizing Lipstick Summer Sunset&nbsp;and Lipstick Queen Jean Queen)&nbsp;to death and they don't dry my lips. &nbsp;For maybelline's price point the lipstick is super moisturizing, has incredible staying power AND super pigmentation! &nbsp;Love it! &nbsp;Lipstick Queen is a new find and the rave reviews sold me into buying it. &nbsp;And I don't regret!</p> <p>Finding that right lipstick makes you feel over the top. &nbsp;Isn't it?! &nbsp;And I am very glad your booties are comfortable. &nbsp;I just culled my faux leather booties because they were killing my feet. &nbsp;The last time I wore it I almost had muscle spasms. &nbsp;Eeks! &nbsp;Lessons learnt &nbsp;The importance of good footwear can never be under estimated. &nbsp;Thanks for recommending them </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lipstick-booties---update#post-1055729 Fri, 18 Oct 2013 18:42:42 +0000 Von 1055729@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I totally agree with your MAC lipstick thoughts. &nbsp;Everyone else I know loves them, but it does a number on my mouth. I really did think everyone's lipstick was that way until I started trying out brands. &nbsp;Good for you for finding one that works! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lipstick-booties---update#post-1055723 Fri, 18 Oct 2013 18:38:53 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1055723@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ha!

So glad the Aras are hits for you. Fabulous news. I will be looking into them as well!</p> <p>Also, I wear Lise Watier, too. There's one line of theirs that is positively moisturizing. I wear it all the time and love it. So we are lipstick twins as well as clothing and haircut twins!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lipstick-booties---update#post-1055714 Fri, 18 Oct 2013 18:31:58 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1055714@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b><u>Lipstick:</u></b><u></u> I adore MAC lipstick and the gorgeous saturated colors they carry and the staying power is amazing...BUT...they dry out my lips like I've just gone for a 20 mile hike in the desert. Even if I put on lip balm first. So my new fall dark plum/burgundy color is Lise Watier. This is the first time I've tried that brand and I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE it! The staying power is just about as good as MAC, the color nice and saturated and rich, but best of all - actually moisturizes my lips and no more drying out.</p> <p><b><u>Booties:</u></b><u></u> Today is the first wearing of my Ara booties and I have done a whack of running up and down to the wards today, as well as across the street three times to our Purchasing Department and let me tell you...these are ALL DAY booties! Comfort is 11 out of 10. I think it was Vix who first suggested these to me so thank you! Will be looking to this brand again in the future.</p> <p>Just wanted to share - that is all </p>
