Re: LIPSTICK TUBE. AND HOW LONG......

@Pink123     You know that medicine strips with M, T, W, etc.? I have several that hold my discontinued lipsticks and ones that were almost gone . I did dig them out with the handle of a baby spoon. Remember to refrigerate after the transfer to help them get really solid before use. 

 

What was your favorite BB lipstick? I miss all the shimmer shades.

Ridiculous.  

 

Whatever, best of luck nasty.

 

 


I was not nasty to you in the least, I never am nasty to anyone here, I just answered your question, just like anyone else here, and I even got 3 heartts, certainly meant no harm, it is a shame you saw it that way.

Temptalia might have a good dupe for it @Pink123 . Good luck!💐

 

And my favorite lipstick was "Mauve" from Prescriptives so I sympathize. So often this happens.


Thanks @Trinity11  I will.   I just don't get it.  They do this with classic's in clothing too. ugh.  Smiley Happy

I once called Estée Lauder about why the constant removal of popular, favorite products. I received what amounted to a tongue lashing from the rep about how new, improved innovative products was most important to them...replacing even favorites @Pink123 .🥺

@Shanus  it was the simple Bobbi Brown "nude".  I've been using it for at least 20 years. Unreal.

Re: LIPSTICK TUBE. AND HOW LONG......

@persiflage  I do too.  I do use a lipliner for stayng power undeneath but I feel the lip brush does not have the saturation of color like right out of the tube.

 

Unless I can color recreate I'm stuck and need to move on..  Thanks..

I must have several older posts on the company that creates duplicates of lipstick colors and foundation.

 

Name: Three Custom Color Specialists P.O. Box 983

                   Provincetown, MA. 02657

If they already had a request for your color,  they will make it up from their library.  

If this is the very first time the color has been requested, there will be a higher cost.  Subsequently, future requests by you or others will be at their regular price.

 

You will get 2 tubes of the finished product.  Tubes are in a simple black case.  ( Simeone posted this month that GMA had a segment on for a similar service but it included your name on the tube....really ! )

 

The duplicate will not be " creamy " or tasty or perfumed.

 

To submit your sample, simply retrieve a small sample from the bottom of a used tube.

 

You really need to go on their website...be careful in how you type it....I recall a copycat type website.

 

BTW, that lipstick brush is very old.  I just got a modern one that clicks to push out the brush: all in one piece !

 

 


This is amazing @jlkz.  I never knnew such a company existed.  I will indeed look them up and if they have a toll free number will give them a call.

 

The only thing was that this Bobbi Brown "nude" was a creamier shade with a bit of shine.  I'm not a big fan of matte. I guess I wuld have to add a bit of gloss in clear but that would be manageable.

 

Mine is retractable, just got it on Amazon. lol.

 

Thank's again, this shade has been around for so long I bet they have a dupe already and I would be happy to give it a try.

@Trinity11  Woah....that's too funny!  Mine seemed to be a kid and hardly had a clue of what I was talking about.  But we try at least.

 

I did complain at "Equipment".  They carry silks.  There was another sleeveless classic they ditched about 2 years ago.  I called and complained. (after about 2 years of drycleaning they loose there bright white shade and become dingy)  Guess what?  It came back two months ago.  The cut is a little looser but it's ok.  I love silk for the hot weather here in Soflo.

 

Anyway, in this situation it helped to speak up.  I'm sure I was not the only one though in this instance.

 

PS. I got the last 4 tubes of Bobbi Brown in Nude at of all places Ebay.  They are quite handy sometimes.

I love silk! I remember back in the 90's wearing washable silk to work. I still have some Diane Von Furstenberg wrap dresses in the closet in silk. Still enjoy wearing them to a nice restaurant.💕

So happy @Pink123 you found your favorite lipstick!! eBay came through!!!💕
