Bite Beauty’s Multistick in Mauvember
This color was introduced in November 2017. I like this shade, but I do wish that it had been more purple…you know, actually “mauve.” (They probably chose not to do that, to make the color more widely appealing. But damn, I could really wear the heck out of a reddish-brown purple, or even a paler purple!) This is a pretty versatile shade for me. It works equally well for my lips, cheeks, and lids.
Simply Naturals’ Plasma
I’ve had this for so many years…I can’t believe I hadn’t swatched it before this point. The color complements my eyes very nicely, and compared to some of the Simply Naturals colors, this has pretty good adhesion. I can’t find any single TKB mica that I own, that matches this color exactly.

ColourPop’s Lux Lipstick collection
When the screenshots of this collection flooded Instagram, my first thoughts were “I do not need more lipsticks” and “...but there’s a lavender one!” I told myself that I’d consider the lavender. I...
Shiro Cosmetics’ Crème Pâtissière
I have a few other similar colors to this one; but it’s something that works very well for me and I use them fairly often. It leans just barely warm, but on me it’...
Aromaleigh v2.1’s Wild Solitude
This is almost more of a brown than a pink. (When I received my jar, I had to check the label several times because I was sure that I’d been accidentally sent a different...

About six months after my first DEC purchase, I decided to slowly start getting sample sets of all of the older collections - both because I’m an Extreme Completist, and so that I could...
