what's in my stash? bareMinerals Pretty Amazing lip colors & lipglosses

these are the new (well, sorta new) lip products that Bare Escentuals released in the past few months. i first received "rouge" or "bravado" as it's now called in the stores with a QVC Today's Special Value (TSV) last year and i accumulated 20 of them! i didn't get them all at once and i believe i've only bought a few of them off QVC when they released them as sets of 2, and because of that, i have duplicates of a couple of them since they also came in future sets.

when they released the lip glosses (which i had no idea they were going to do), i fell in love with this formula! the lip colors are nice, but they're a bit too rich for my taste and style. i find that you have to be rather light handed when applying the lip colors because they really cover your lips. i like full coverage, but i find the lip colors to be a bit too thick. that's why i was so excited to get a lipgloss in a kit! the feel of the lipglosses are really nice (and pretty! LOL) on my lips. i reach for them more than the lip colors, but i still like the lip colors, too. the one i'm wearing "confidence" is a nice, everyday berry color. it's been a few hours since i put it on and it's still on my lips (but it has transfered a bit to my glass). so it definitely has staying power! no need to constantly reapply! xoxo Kathleen
