I'm ordering some new lipstick......because.

My lipstick collection is out of control already. I mean seriously - I HAVE A PROBLEM PEOPLE. I can't help myself. I just fall in and out of love with new colors constantly. I am really excited about ordering some new ones though.

I decided some new colors would be the perfect way to see in the new season. I've never owned any of these brands before and some careful research went into ordering them. I decided on Wild Ginger and Cherry Lush by Tom Ford and Latte by Smashbox because my nude lipsticks are almost empty.

I just wish there was a way to swatch the TF lippies before ordering but no such luck. I'm excited about it. They should be with me by the end of Feb. I don't ask for a lot from lipsticks but I do expect them to be matte. I'm happy that the Smashbox one is but I am not sure about the TF ones.

The easiest way for me to swatch them is a trip to Brown Thomas in Dublin for a play. This is actually not in any way easy at all. I was hoping to get to Dublin this month so far, no luck.

I am thinking that if this works out then it wont be my last order from Tom Ford. I'm hoping to invest in a brush or two as well. Every June for my birthday, I order something silly. Something I don't need but want very much - this could be it. I am really hoping to that I can get the brushes although they are the most I have ever spent on a brush. In fact, its the most I have ever spent on lipstick too.
