Fuchsia Obsession


There's something stirring inside of me, and it's getting a little unbearable day by day. It's been haunting me in my sleep, and it occupies my mind most of the time hence I can't eat and focus on my priorities. I can't keep it in any longer-I have to let it out before it consumes me--before I explode and lose my sanity. I can't help it anymore....

I'M IN LOVE WITH FUCHSIA LIPSTICKS!!!!

LOL. Sorry if that intro got you a bit worried haha. I just want to say that I'm madly in love with Fuchsia right now, and I want to amass a Fuchsia lipstick collection. Well, that's a little exaggerated though. What I wanna say is that at the moment, I always find myself going for Fuchsia whenever I buy or wear lipstick. Maybe it's the color, maybe it is because it's one of my most favorite shades, or perhaps it's just summertime already and Fuchsia truly represents this season. Ah! Whatever the reason is, all I can is that I'm digging this shade nowadays.


Let me introduce you to my humble Fuchsia family. :)

  2. Fuschia and pink is the only color I feel comfortable putting on my lips ( i envy those who can wear sexy red lipstick!) Right now I have Avon comfort wear lipstick in vintage pink but that dries up my lips so most of the time I just wear Maybelline Baby Lips Pink Punch lip balm. :)

    Nice collection you have there! :)

  3. You have one big collection over there, Ms. M! For me, that's already a great investment; thinking the price of each lippies. I'm a huge fan of lipsticks too, but I'm not really particular with colors.

    But if I were to chose a specific color, then it would be burgundy/deep plum colors like Wet n Wild in Wine room. ♥

  5. I looooove your fuchsia lippie collection! I love that color too! I have Maybelline Color Sensational in Fuchsia Crystal and the very cheap LA Colors Grape shade. They are a lot like your Nars Funny face lippie :) I hope to add more to my collection just like yours :D

  6. Fushia types are the most flattering for me, nudes and corals emphasizes the blotchiness of my face while reds make me look old. What a nice post, the Mac Petals and Peacocks looks just like the new Mac lippie I bought, Daddy's Little Girl from the Archie's Girls collection. Your review on the Maybelline Jewels lipstick was the start of my liking for lipsticks, I thought fushia types would look unflattering but it was the opposite thus starting my liking and addiction on lipsticks.

  9. Try MAC's Girl About Town lipstick :) It actually has a Satin finish and it is absolutely worth it!

  10. That's quite a collection! I don't have fuchsia lipsticks like these but I want to get some so there's variety naman in my lipstick collection. I own a few pinks and nudes and a few dark-ish shades too (like NYX RL in Hope, one of my faves, and WNW Sugar Plum Fairy). I have a thing for shades with hints of brown in them too <3

  11. Awesome collection! Well, I read somewhere that fuchsia signifies confidence and maturity. Perhaps you got the same personality as well, Martha. Keep up! I love reading your blogs, the reviews are written in full detail. I always read your posts.

  12. sooo many Fuchsia :) I'm not yet brave enough to try fuchsia as my comfort zone will always be red. I'll try BYS since its the cheapest among the bunch and I'll have to see if I can rock fuchsia.

  15. Eloise: I like that shade too! :D For your skin tone, I'd say get Ruby Woo! It looks awesome on fair skin tones. :)

    Detsy: Thanks for sharing your faves, Detsy! :D

    Glenn: Hi and welcome to TBJ! Thanks for sharing your fave! my fave VMV lipstick is a shade called Babe. :)

    Desire: If you love deep colors, try out MAC's Rebel. It's my most favorite plum shade! :)

    Anonymous: Hello there and welcome to TBJ! :D Thank you for sharing your thoughts. :) So happy to know that my Maybelline review was quite effective haha! I agree, Fuchsia is such a flattering color, especially on warm skin tones! If I'm not mistaken, Daddy's little Girl is sort of a repromote of Petals and Peacocks. :)

    Anthea: hi and welcome to tbj! Thanks for dropping by. Will check out your blog. :)

    Somilge: Hehe. :D Told myself before that I'll always be a red lippie girl but when I've tried Fuchsia lipsticks, I got hooked! :D

  19. I'm planning buy my 2nd MAC lippie (my first is MAC Amplified Girl about town. you must try it! It's more of a fuchsia color), and you got it; it would be Rebel! i love that color and just a swipe of it makes the work done. no need for eyeshadows and all. just groomed brows, curled lashes and a glide of cheek tint, then you're good to go! ♥
