DeLush Reader Roundtable: Lip Love

lipsmarch.jpgHey, DeLush readers! We want to know what's in your bag!

Specifically, we want to know what lipstick or lip gloss is currently your absolute favorite - that one you take everywhere. Yes, yes...we know that there is a multitude of choices, and that you most likely own a frightening amount of them (what, is that just us?). However, at any given time there's always one that makes its way into the heaviest rotation and becomes a favorite. Tell us! Right now, what's YOUR most-used lipstick or gloss?

*Here's what I currently carry everywhere: M•A•C Lipglass in Revealing

I'm addicted to Blistex's Complete Moisture - it's so smooth and hydrating, and especially non-goopy (hate that).

My favorite lipstick is by Rimmel.

MAC Plushglass in Oversexed. It's a great colour; it looks really dark, but is beautiful on. Nice smell, no taste, and the "plumping" effect, if there is any, isn't noticeable (not like the Lip Venom I bought just for fun). Followed by MAC Lipgelee; I carry it around because I like the texture and it actually is great if my lips are dry, but the colour I bought isn't really the thing for me (too pallid and neutral, it's Jellybabe) and I haven't been arsed yet to drive across town to the MAC counter and look for a more appropriate shade.

Neutrogena MoistureShine gloss in Dreamy - I have one for my bag and one to keep in my bathroom, so I'm never without it.

e.l.f. Soothing Lip Gloss in Mauve Luxe - this has the most pleasant texture, smell, and taste and is also very long-lasting. I'm afraid it might be discontinued, though, since I can't find it on their site any longer. Emails to them have gone unanswered.

I also like Maybelline's Shinylicious lipglosses.

I use CO Bigelow Cinnament & Peppermint Mentha Lip Shine from Bath and Body works. I love it. Seems like it freshens your breath too.

I also use Blistex Silk & Shine.

my FAVORITE lipstick/gloss is the Bobbi Brown lip duo (limited edition, but found it here: http://www.gloss.com/bb/index.jsp?clickid=hmp_leftnav_img&n-state=http://www.bobbibrowncosmetics.com/templates/products/sp_shaded_multi.tmpl?CATEGORY_ID%3dCATEGORY2796%26PRODUCT_ID%3dPROD10199~~shopping-cart-location!www.gloss.com~G!0B8B4C96E071!Sh8A6k4NYYzj~~ws-nocache~~@http://syndicator.esteelauder.com/syndicator/Gloss/bobbibrown_us)

its moisturizing and looks natural, but polished.

My favorite lip treatment (at night before bed) is Aquaphor ointment. BEST stuff, ever.

I've recently fallen in love with Bare Escentuals Buxom lip gloss in Dolly. It's a plumping gloss, has real staying power and has a great minty tingling feel!

Softlips tinted lipbalm. It's moisturizing and it gives a flattering hint of colour to my normally pale lips.

Oh! It's hard to pick just one. For day time, I default to MAC's Dubbonet with a touch of Springbean gloss on the bottom lip. Shimmer is on order for evening and my absolute fav is Giorgio Armani's Black Gem Collection #32 - a red with shimmer galore. I top it off with another Armani favorite, Midnight Lip Shimmer #4. I like to use Laura Mercier's Redwood pencil with both colors.

MAC Viva Glam V

MAC Lustreglass in Wonderstruck (although when I use it up, I think I'll ask for something with just a tiny bit more pigment in it).

Trish McEvoy lip gloss in a subtle light pink - I'm not sure which shade it is! I loooove the texture of this, it's not sticky AT ALL.

I love all my lip glosses, but what I reach for the most is my Viva Glam V lipglass!

I always have my Prr lipglass along and of course Kiehl's Lip Balm #1 to smooth things out!

Clinique's Almost Lipstick in Black Honey is my must-have. It can be light by itself or more dramatic along with lipliner.

MAC Lipglass in Lust and MAC Satin lipstick in Twig have been my everyday staples for several years now.

I'm just loving MAC Syrup. Such a pretty, spring-y, feminine pink. And I love the Lustre formula, too.

Not sure if it qualifies as a lip gloss, but I can't live without my Smith's Rosebud Salve.

without a doubt, my lancome juicy tube in touch of gold. perfect amount of sparkle without looking too glittery. But lately I've been falling in love with Victoria's Secret beauty rush lipgloss in pinked lemonade- pretty hot pink color, but subtle, and it smells great!

Right now, my favorite lipstick for day is MAC Lustre Lipstick in Rubia - it is the perfect pinkish-brown neutral. For evening, MAC Matte Lipstick in Velvet Teddy is the perfect nude lip to be paired with a smokey eye - not in blacks or greys, but greens or purples ... more springtime appropriate, I think.

My favorite lipglosses are peaches and pinks: MAC Lipglass in Pink Poodle and Oyster Girl, MAC Lustreglass in Love Nectar, Global Goddess lipgloss in Enchantment.

I carry Bourjois Lovely Brille in a plum shade. It's a pretty color and glides on easily. Lurve it.

let me see.....Clinque's Black Honey, Chanel's Turbulant Moonglow with Bath & Both Works Plumper in Pumpkin Pie over it or Chanel's Glossimer in Pin-up. I also like Sally Hansen's plumper in clear, its minty and I am never without a Burts Bees Balm.

Love the new Loreal Colour Riche Lipgloss in Rich Rose - not sticky at all, great neutral daytime color with hint of pink brightens complexion, goes on smooth & moisturizes your lips. Also, Lancome Juicy Tubes Swirl in Candy Twist gives great color and glitter! No awkward taste which is a plus.

My basic neutrals are either MAC lipglass in Adventurous (or Lovechild, basically the same color but not LE) and lipstick in Hug Me. Those get the most use because they go with everything. Lately, though, my brightly-colored favorite is MAC lipglass in Malibu Barbie. :D

L'oreal Color Juice in Glazed Lillies is my perfect pale pink nude shade,and Glazed Pansies is a pink that pops out and makes my lips look juicy. I pair them both with Post-Modern Pink lipstick. These colors are all Limited Edition. I have 2 of each!

I'm with shopdiary on this one:
Mac lipglass in Lust and lipstick in Twig are a couple of my faves too!
I'm also loving CG Smoothwear Liptints in rose petal. It's so moisturizing, with the sheerest hint of pink. Plus, it smells like cookies.
love it!

Looks like I'm carrying around Revlon Colorstay in Raisin. I'm so heavy-handed with the black eyeliner that I've been rockin the Revlon Raisin for a while now.

MAC Oi! Oi! Oi! So pretty and springy. Also Tarte's Westley & Buttercup. Just a hint of color, super moisturizing and stays on.

I am using the Neutrogena Moistureshine lipsoother (cooling hydragel) in 'Gleam.' It has a nice fruit smell I can't place, and it stays on my lips pretty well, and it tingles a little! It has almost no color to it though,so first I'll use...

Benetint, but I have to be careful not to put it on the inner part of my lips. I have those type of lips that absorb things like wine, coffee, and gatorade (so I'll have a dark purple stain all along my inner lips after drinking wine). Benetint does the same thing, but it's really pretty if I put it on right, avoiding my inner lip.

MAC lipglass LUST and a few shades of CoBigelow mentha lip tints that I bought in Bath and Body Works, they freshen the breath, non-sticky and long lasting shine

I love NYC's clear lip gloss. Its cheap and wonderful. I liked Maybelline Shinylicious.

I made this one lipgloss with a berry red(too bold for my complexion), insanely bright and sparkly pink that was totally unflattering, a beige lipstick, that is a great way to look like a corpse, with vaseline. I mixed and I mixed to create a girly and versatile, peachy pink uber flattering gloss color. It was fairly cheap, considering I would have never used these colors.
