My top 5 are:

1) Shrieking Violet liquid wand lip gloss. Somehow purple/violet works for me. I apply lip balm on first, then I sweep Shrieking Violet on top with just one swipe on both upper and lower lips and smoosh them together and it gives a nice, sheer punch of color.

2) Delacouer liquid wand lip gloss. This is the perfect pinky shade for me. I love how I can see the subtle silver shimmer in it when the light hits my lips.

3) St. Tropez liquid wand lip gloss. Perfect pinky/nude shade for me. This was my first purchase of the liquid formula and I wanted more!

4) Ginny liquid wand lip gloss. I guess I really love the liquid formula since my top 4 are all in the liquid formula. I was a bit scared of Ginny because I thought it would be too much like Mirabelle which I didn't like all too much but it thankfully is sheer. It gives a subtle hint of coral.

5) Mango butter cream. I'm not a fan of the butter cream formula but if I apply lip balm first and then apply the butter cream on top it applies more evenly and smoothly. Mango isn't as bright as it looks on the website. It's a bit warmer than that but still a nice color.

This list will probably change once I get more SN lippies for sure. Just when I think "this is my favorite!" another one comes along and changes my mind.

Oh man alive, that's my all time number one lippy. *tears start to fall....* I'm trying to forget my first love :cry: no-one else ever has ever quite measured up or captured my heart the same way since... :lol:
I loved it - such a wearable, warm red. The 24 K Gold used in it also gives it an added dimension :D Or so I like to think!
Pure luxury on lips!

I have only 3 colored lippies... and one sample)))) I use clear tubes more often, Bad Girl is the best!

When I'm not a bad girl I like:

Desire
Fashionista
Birthday Suit

I'm still waiting for my Mango f/s, but I got it as a sample in a previous order and I love it!

This thread is so in time, I seem to get interested in lippies: I'm waiting for 5 lippies now)))
Current ratio, Sept. 13: 1 Ebony : 1 Buttery Gold : 15 All Purpose : 5 Ivory : 2 Yellow : 1 Liberty : 1 Beach Bunny

I already gave my 5 favorites, but like Aud and Cupcake, I loved Carpe Diem and so miss that one. I would reach for it all the time. And if I could add number six to the lippies that are my favorites from those still available, I would add Stockholm.

This is me! Every new SN lippie that arrives in my mailbox becomes my newest favorite.

My current five favorites:

Hibiscus
Innocent
Heirloom
Azalea
Delacour

Also in my purse at this moment is St. Tropez. (Being in my purse is the sign of being a current favorite.)
