#PinkLips for Breast Cancer Awareness - October 2015

#PinkLips people, yes I know but this was one of the images I posted in October for Breast Cancer Awareness Month. On to Pink Lips. Totally unprepared, I decided to do a #PinkLipsChallenge in October but there were certain factors that weren't considered so it was kind of incomplete *covers face*.

First, I don't like Pink so doing pink lips for any number of days is a challenge. Second, because I don't like pink, I don't favour pink lip colours so don't have a lot of them. Third, the planning element was missing so a couple of days were missed here, there and eventually everywhere.

But I'd love to share some of the pink lip looks I did with you nonetheless so here they are. Be warned, there were only 9 of them. I'm working towards a #PinkLipOctober in 2016 so this time, it'll be complete for all 30 days of the month.

#Goodmorning this morning 😊 Happy New Week Pink is by no means on my list of favorite colours. But, this is October ie. Breast Cancer Awareness month. We are almost halfway in so this is quite late 🙈😜 I've decided that regardless of how much I don't like the colour, I'd better wear my creative hat and rock a pink lip everyday for the rest of the month......so help me GOD. Today is the 1st day of this challenge I've set for myself and I'm getting into the spirit. I created this pink lip with the @zaroncosmetics hyper blush in Electric Crush. I have it on my cheeks too 😊 Let me know if a video on how I achieved this is something ud like to see. ______________________________ #Barbara1923 #instamakeup #Breastcancermonth #pink #pinklips #bblogger #zaron #buyNigerian #beautyblogger #instabeauty #teamshorthair #teamnatural #naturalhair #sidepart #Barbara1923pinklipschallenge

Is that actually cleavage? 👀 I don't think it qualifies 😜 but that @millesimernm chevron shaped vintage necklace ain't helping my matter at all o. It's day 3 of my #pinklipschallenge for #BreastCancerAwareness 💃🏽. Created today's lip using the @sleekstudiong Flash 'a' Pout in Naivety. The @clinique skinny stick in my goodie bag from yesterday is SUPER pigmented. I used it to create this fabulous (if I say so) ombré pink lip look. What do you say? Yay or Nay ________________________________ #Barbara1923 #pink #bblogger #pinklips #fashionblogger #beautyblogger #instabeauty #smile #JORDwatch #woodwatch #instadaily #teamshorthair #CliniqueinLagos #Barbara1923pinklipschallenge

My last post was a lot of text but I've got to get back to the #pinklipschallenge for #BreastCancerAwareness. Not my usual self today and bit under the weather so it's a #nomakeup day for me but......a #challenge is a challenge. Rocking sunglasses from I don't know where to hide my dark circles and wearing the @Clinique lipstick + balm lip colour in Raspberry Pop. Get yours at @thenailstudiovi In other news, my #hair is growing. ______________________________ #Barbara1923 #Barbara1923pinklipschallenge #pinklips #bblogger #instagram #thenailstudiofiles #CliniqueinLagos #naturalhair #teamnaturalhair #teamshorthair

#TGIF A soft, dusty pink lip for Day 5 of the #PinkLipschallenge for #BreastCancerAwareness. I've literally run out of pink lip colours so I'm having to mix and match now. .....to think I've got 15 more days 😭😭😭 Applied a purple lip pencil to my lips and toned it to this soft pink with the @Clinique Curviest Caramel Chubby stick. Happy Friday guys 😚 ______________________________ #Barbara1923 #barbara1923pinklipschallenge #PinkOctober #bblogger #CliniqueinLagos #naturalhair #naturalhairjourney #teamshorthair #BarbarasBigChop #sidepart #vintagestyle #thenailstudiofiles #twa

I'm MIA today but it's still #PinkOctober and my #pinklips for #breastcancerawareness challenge is still on. Today's lip isn't exactly a pink but it's in the same family so we'll give it a pass. It's a combo of @zaroncosmetics Brandy & Chilli matte lip stains. __________________________ #Barbara1923 #barbara1923pinklipschallenge #pink #instamakeup #instabeauty #bblogger
