Sep 09LIPSTICK QUEEN
I mentioned on Monday that I hit the makeup counter at Barneys while in Las Vegas. It was Wednesday night (they close at 11p) and I wanted a new shade for our night on the town. Boy did we have a night on the town but that is too x-rated to mention right now. Back to the lipstick. I cozied up to the Lipstick Queen counter and the girls encouraged me to have at it. I tried on many different shades and I was immediately drawn to the wines and purples.
I’ve been wanting to incorporate a more severe lip color – I’ve only worn a pinkish nude – and since I’ll never go near red it was clear in which direction I was heading. I first tried the Saint Wine and was quite pleased, but then I added a top coat of the Chinatown Glossy Pencil in the “Mystery” color and I knew I found the perfect combination. I was such an exciting moment for a girl who was always weary of lipstick.
P.S. Lipstick Queen lipsticks are not tested on animals, are gluten-free and do not use any harsh ingredients.
Shown here: Wine Saint ($18.00), Chinatown Glossy Pencil “Mystery” ($20.00)
I love the color! I am definitely weary of lipsticks myself but this looks like something I would try! Thanks for the post!
I’ll have to try it out.
beautiful!
oooooooohhhh! maybe i’ll start wearing lipstick this fall/winter. thanks for the inspiration

Actually, I think your husband might have thrown it away! Remember you said he didn’t like it. I think he’s the culprit. Lets find some more when I come up to SF.
You are welcome! Lipstick Queen has a great selection of colors and they truly look and feel great on the lips. I started off with their “Honest Politician” which is the pinkish nude I had mentioned in the post and that is a great one to start off with for those weary of lipsticks – like you and me! ♥
You won’t regret it Wendy! They’re so wonderful and won’t break the bank. I love them so much I should try and join their p.r. team.
I cannot wait to show you!
You would look great! Cannot wait to see what color you rock.
i like the color you posted in particular!!!
Lets hit the Lipstick Queen counter together. For realz!
