I wanted to point out that I made the mistake of wearing bright shadow for this set of pics which is a little distracting. Oops! See if you can ignore that. Lol. But yes, I do believe there is a difference between that way I look with lip color versus the way I look without. I think I look more natural and down-to earth (minus the bright blue shadow) without lip color. Applying lip color, however, gives my lips a fuller, more symmetrical shape with prominent definition. So can I leave the house sporting bare lips? Sure! (Though I have to at least be wearing some SPF balm, bare lips are one thing, dry lips are gross!) If I want to add a little more glam to my look, however, having a prettily-colored lip is the way to go. Which do I prefer? I like it both ways! Like eye makeup, I feel that going out with or without lip color depends on my mood. :D
Well, that was fun! Hope you all enjoyed my little experiment. I certainly did and learned a lot about myself in the process. Have a great night!

I really think you can pull it off without any lipcolour because your own lipcolour is really nice too :).
ReplyDeleteAw, thank you! :D
DeleteI think you look great both with and without! I'm less lazy about lip colors when I have no eye makeup (which I tend to skip when I wear glasses. I can't wear contacts every day because my eyes are sensitive), but when I have eye makeup on I rarely reapply my lip color!
ReplyDeleteThanks Sunny! I agree that for a more natural look, it's good to balance eye makeup with bare lips, or lip color with bare eyes. :)
DeleteThe experiment was very fun! It's something different too! :D
ReplyDeleteYou look awesome with/without lip color! I don't think you need make up at all tbh! You're gorgeous either way. :D
I love love lip color but I'm so lazy about applying it XD I tend to forget about it like I do with mascara/curling lashes. D:
Thanks my Kuri! xoxo I know for a fact that you can definitely get away with forgetting lip color and mascara! :D
DeleteYou look equally pretty, but the image is different, if you know what I mean? Lip products are high maintenance, so if your lips still look flawless at 4pm, people know that you have touched them up. It shows off how vain you really are, whilst wearing bare lips has a more nonchalant feel to it.
ReplyDeleteGreat experiment! It has even caused me to philosophize, haha :D
Excellent observation and philosophy, Pearl! Haha, I totally agree with the fact that lip color is rather high maintenance and that all-day perfect lips are an excellent indicator of vanity, lol. Actually, I used to be one of those annoying girls that brought my makeup bag everywhere with me. I won't lie, I was vain. I'm STILL vain, but less so now. (I hope) :D
DeleteAnyways, glad you enjoyed the experiment. Thanks for hanging out and reading! :)
I never have time to do my lips! And I hate applying lip gloss, because my hair ALWAYS end up sticking to it...
ReplyDeleteHahahaha! I have the same problem with gloss, sticks to my lips on a daily basis. Sometimes, since my hair is so long, it drags the gloss from my lips to my cheeks and I end up walking around with pink stripes on my face without knowing it till I look in the mirror! Lol.
