How are you all. I was going to talk about what i do to store my lipsticks, Ive done a post before on lipsticks so check that out (HERE)
Depotting your lipsticks can be a bit messy, you could either melt them or smoosh them into a palette. A lot of people have different opinions on how to store lipsticks some people say that it changes the texture and feel of the lip colour but i honestly don't think it does all of my colours are the same as they were in the tube and feel totally the same.
There is one really big things that i love doing when you can depot them, it is to mix your own colours which i think its an amazing idea because if you need a colour but don't have it you can simply take some of of lipstick and some of another melt and mix and you have a new colour but still have the 2 originals as well which is amazing as you never loose out. You don't need to just use 2 you can use as many as you want to use
What do you think of storing them like this?
Would you rather carry 60 lipsticks? or 4 Palettes?

I keep mine in their original bullets, but I can see why people would want to put them in palettes!
ReplyDeleteI like having a tiny palette that I can carry with me but I would only use half of the lipstck to melt it down, that way I can keep some in the tube for on the go! this is cute though
ReplyDeleteI do that xD so i have some left so i can top it up if i need too :P hehe
ReplyDeletei take maybe half the lipstick and leave half :P xx
Thanks for commenting xx
Yeah id rather use my palettes because my kit would be even heavier with 60 lip colours :P hehe

When I get to the end of a lipstick, I give it a spray with some surgical spirit and scoop it all out into a palette. Have you seen how much is in the end?
ReplyDeleteI love the Japonesque palettes - I got one after I watched Lisa Eldridge show her palettes in a vid.
My sister does this with her lippies and they're so much more convienent this way! x

Yeah, there is like a whole lipstick in the bottom and just think people chuck them out and how much lipstick they are actually wasting!
ReplyDeletesaw these when in Dublin at the weekend, they're expensive enough but I instantly wanted them! Am training as an MUA so think they're fab!
ReplyDeleteThey are amazing, i dont use them for eyeshadow as you can see but i think they are great for lipstick xD

I'm going to start training as an MUA this summer and I'd really like to invest in that Japonseque lip palette. I think it would help me be more creative with my colour choices having them all laid out infront of me.
ReplyDeleteThanks for commenting! :D
ReplyDeleteYeah i agree its a lot more helpful to see all the colours in front of you in a Palette! <3 xxx
ReplyDeleteWell,
ReplyDeletegood news for me, thanks!
I'm so warming to the idea of depotting my lippies that I'm planning on picking up some palettes later in the week HOWEVER what about travelling and if they get warm? Wouldn't that remelt some of them and they could potentially run into each other? That would suck!
