"What Makeup or Beauty product are you Lemming for right now?"

For me, it is Chanel Rouge Allure Laque # 75 Dragon. I’m slow to the game, I know… but oh my gawd, I’m obsessed with it right now.

Things I’ve tried to tell myself:

  • I don’t like gloss.
  • Rouge Allure Laque is just a less sticky type of gloss.
  • The color looks very much like MAC Russian Red.
  • Russian Red is half the price.
  • I already own Russian Red.
  • I do not need one more deep red lipstick.
  • It is going to be high-maintenance (smears, touching up, etc).
  • It is SGD45 here.
  • That is USD36 here.
  • I need to buy work clothes more than I need makeup.
  • I’ve got too many lipsticks.
  • I’ve got too many lip products.
  • I’ve got too much makeup.
  • I dislike a lot of Chanel’s packaging. I don’t care that it’s “Classic” and a status symbol. It’s always felt like the Emperor’s New Clothes to me. (Ugh, but the Rouge Allure Laques look gorgeous!)
  • This obsession is going to pass. Eventually.

I don’t think it’s working.

What items are YOU lemming right now?

Update @ camijoi: I know of one online seller, strawberrynet.com but they seem to be out of Dragon as well. :(
