Rock the Gloss Challenge for September 7th 2006:
"Lipstick and mascara are the two most important cosmetic tools; the two that women can't do without. If you have only a few minutes---lipstick is the thing to use---within just those few minutes, lipstick gives vivacity to the face.
Quote from Diego Dalla Palma in Lipstick by Jessica Pallingston
My lippie is a sheer lipstick called Tipsy by Goldie. It is a sheer watermelon color. I love Goldie's packaging. The case is a heavy metal with cool etchings.
Read a great article about their packaging at:

Here is a snippet:
Our packages have to be streamlined but also so cute that you’d want to collect them,” Chavez explains. Even the cartons are meant to be kept, not thrown away. The carton containing mini gloss features a graffiti-inspired design. Last spring, Kim Petty, daughter of singer Tom Petty, created illustrations that were printed in black on the white cartons. In the future, the brand plans on continuing to use artwork commissioned from different artists on all its packaging, in order to present the image of the brand in a different way each season.

Today, I'm wearing Sue Devitt lipstick. There are a lot of great lipstick cases, but I think my favorite would have to be Guerlain Divinora Colour and Shine Lipstick, with the beautiful gold casing and flip out mirror on the tip. I also love the Lola lipstick case with the fold-out mirror.
I adore the pink Bakelite-inspired cases for Paul & Joe's lipsticks and glosses, as well as the golden "bullets" for the Besame lipsticks. Both are so vintage-y, and the products are excellent, too.
Today I'm just wearing some Fresh Gloss Absolute in Dahlia, which is another beautifully packaged lip color. I love having gloss in a little compact with a mirror!

I love Goldie's packaging! I just love Goldie, it's completely slept on. I just found that BBW are just going to carry it in their flagship stores.
I'm wearing Bobbi Brown Shimmering Tint Tube in Dusk Shimmer.
Today I'm wearing Vincent Longo Cherry.
As for cases well it's boring, I know, but I prefer Giorgio Armani's understated slick black lipstick cases.
Today the gloss of choice was Kevyn Aucoin liquid fountain pen in Lilette - a sort of wine colour but sheer enough for still hot weather but nearing fall-ish days. Nice plumper, not sticky.
I used to love the Versace lipstick cases, heavy and bling-y but Fresh has won me over for its packaging and I do still quite like those brown stila boxes.
The Goldie packaging is adorable! =) Our BBW is open again too, so that must be visited this weekend! ;-)
I like the smooth contours of the Armani lipsticks very much. And I like the red box-iness of the Kevyn Aucoin lipsticks. They look lacquered. Remind me of bento boxes, for some reason.
Oh...
I like Aura Science Lipstick packaging.It looks like a bullet and becca's packaging is so beautiful and sleek.
I wore Cherry Chapstick all day. Not very fancy, I'm afraid.
And, I really like Guerlain's gold lipstick tubes.
So I am on the hunt for the perfect berry lip colour. Any ideas???
I really like the Chanel lipstick cases. Mostly because of the click and the fact that the lipstick has chanel stamped on it.
