Gloss out 2011 - too many lip products?



If you are anything like me, then you have way way way too much lipgloss, lipstick, lipliners, lipstains... anything lip related, you have way too much of!
In 2010, a Youtuber started something called Gloss out 2010, which basically was her promise to herself that she would not buy any more lip glosses for the whole year of 2010. She encouraged her followers and fellow youtubers to follow in her footsteps and use up anything they already had for the year of 2010.
I got the idea to do this from another blogger(Kim) when she tweeted that she should do a Glossout 2011. Of course I thought that I should do it too. I have way too many as you can see from the above pic.... which honestly is not all of my lip products.(*blush*
So yeah, I guess this is my written promise to myself that I will not buy any lip products for  the rest of 2011. Of course if I receive any from schools, or work or companies, I cannot control that. I am going to try and use up what I have during this year, it may be hard. May have to give some away. I guess I can consider this a way to save a bit of money!
What do you think of Gloss out 2011? Will you be joining in? Do you have more lip products then me?! I want to know!
And if you want to hear more from me... check me out on twitter and on facebook!

ProduCt.ReViEw. -MayBeLLine.ColoRSenSationaL.LipstaiN.

 
The product: Maybelline Colorsensational Lip stain
Claim to fameLip stains offering sensationally comfortable and a light weight formula with berry nectars and vitamin C to give the lips a natural berry stained colour.
It has a triangular point for precise lining of lip contours and a cushion tip for soft flush colour.
IngredientsColor Sensation Lip stain contains a brand new technology that combines water pigments with berry nectars and solvents for weightless, sheer colour payoff.
Pros: Easy to apply. Great packaging. Easy to use applicator. Nice colour selection. Nice taste and smell.
Cons: Did not last long at all...I applied the colours and licked my lips and half of the colour came off. Licked it again. And it was pretty much gone. The colours came out nothing like the packaging.
The bottom line: I really like the idea of lip stains, unfortunately this one did not measure up as far as my standards. Great for someone who likes light lip stains as a tinge of colour stays.
Price: $9.99 CDN
