Why not buy just your own lipstick?

My wife and I kiss on the lips and sometimes share chapstick, but I can see where sharing lipstick might bother some people.

Rule number 1... do not use your wife's stuff...:)

[Beverley Sims]

Wives are not doormats to walk over, buy your own makeup.

[Barbara Ella]

I hope she is not using yours if she doesn't want you using hers. Her wishes should be granted. If you wish her to call before coming home, you need to follow what she asks you to do.

[MsRenee]

I could never use her lipstick . She prefers the shade a little darker than me as I favor the light pinks.

Personally, what does it matter between husband and wife? You kiss, make love, share bodily fluids. What is a little lipstick? Now, if you tend to ruin the tip of her lipsticks or use it up too fast, maybe that is a problem that needs to be addressed. I do not believe in using antibacterial soap everywhere, like in your car, in a restaurant. More people are getting sick because they have not built up a natural immunity to common bacteria and it will only get worse over time. Doctors are writing about this "too clean" world that some people are trying to create and the negative impacts it is having on their general.

In the future, when you go out and buy make-up; always buy 2 of everything,
then mark the containers your's and mine. Then all you have to squabble about
is who is "mine". LOL

God...... I'd divorce her in a heart beat! lol ..... it's really not sanitary to use anyone else's makeup for one thing..... so go buy your own!

[Taylor186]

Rule number 2 ... see rule number 1.

If she has taken some of the lipsticks you bought in the past then buy new ones, and keep them separate. My wife and I never share makeup ... or clothes for that matter.

Wives are not doormats to walk over, buy your own makeup.

+1 on that. Totally agree.

[Diana L]

Dana said it all !
We do not share makeup or perfume. nail polish yes! I don't like her shoes no heels sometine she wil have me wear her shoes to stretch them a little

[Eryn]

Is this a battle worth starting or fighting? Seems pretty trivial to me.

If she objects to your using hers, buy your own, keep it separate!

If she asks to borrow one, give it to her with a smile. It's only a lipstick, after all.

[Tara D. Rose]

Husbands and wives are supposed to share everything, except make-up , lipstick, clothes, heels, or anything feminine. My wife has borrowed some panties of mine on some rare occasions, but I don't mind, easy come, easy go.

[Tamara Croft]

So you're wife asks you to stop using her lipstick and you say 'aint happening'? I know what I'd be putting on my lipstick if I'd told someone to stop using it!! It's NOT hygenic to use ANYONE's lipstick, so don't be an ass and go by your own!

[BRANDYJ]

I think the OP has been told in so many ways. It's just wrong to disrespect your wife's wishes and use her things without permission. You should be happy that your wife even accepts your dressing! So many here would wish anything to have a wife that accepts them. You need to appreciate her more and honor her wishes. The "ain't happing" statement shows total disrespect. I feel sorry for her.

Two lingerie drawers, two make up cases. -makes for a happy marriage. Don't share eye make up. You can pass back and forth an eye infection.-Celeste

thanks girls will try > But i do have my own. and i usely wipe it first and it makes it flat and that is what this all about even if i do not use hers i get blame for it enty way
thay way she gets more and i have to pay for it. . she allways wins

[Lady Slipper]

Is it just me, or is anyone else getting the "deeper issues here" vibe? Cindy, you should try to open up some more lines of communication, if that's feasable. Good luck Cindy!

[lingerieLiz]

My wife and I went through that years ago. What she pointed out was that women put on lipstick a certain way and I was messing up her tube. She and daughters used to battle over it too. One of them would grab hers and she would instantly know. Told her it was a fetsh of hers once. Not a wise choice of words.

[DebbieL]

You should use your own lipstick and your on mascara. Growing up, girls frequently share lipstick with each other, until suddenly all of them end up with cold sores at the same time. After that "no sharing".becomes the rule. Often mothers forget about this when they tell their daughters they can't wear make-up - which encourages them to share with their friends. Mascara is another bad one for spreading pink-eye. Both should be thrown out after 30 days, whether you have used it all or not. I would suggest that you go shopping together. She can help you pick a liner, stick and gloss combination that will work well for you - and you won't have to use hers. You should keep your make-up in a purse, ideally in a clear container. That way you know where it is, and you can get to it quickly. Having everything together helps reduce the time spent doing make-up. Many cosmetologists recommend no sharing of ANY makeup and replacing anything over 90 days old.

If you're keeping score and worrying about who "wins" you need to reexamine your priorities. It would be crazy to jeopardize it over a couple of tubes of lipstick.

[Tara D. Rose]

I have a drawer of with all my make up in it, plus all of the other things to wear in a separate dresser. We keep those things separate from the others stuff like that.
Your problem can be solved Cindy, by going and buying your own lipsticks in your favorite colors and put them in a make up box and in your drawer. I'm sure your wife will not bother them as well as you should not bother hers. I think this should solve this problem.

Lipstick is not something I share with my wife.....the only thing I borrow sometimes is her blush,.

[Beverley Sims]

Just revisiting.....
Am I right?
The general consensus of opinion is "BUY YOUR OWN"? :)
