washed my lippie

Ya'll are not going to believe what happened to me. I washed and dried my fav lippie-Sherry lipgloss. Not only did I lose my lipgloss but it also got on my clothes, I'm hoping it'll just wash out. I keep one in my scrub pocket at work so I'll always have it with me and I forgot to check my pockets, I must've just missed it b/c I always empty my pockets when I get home. Live and learn!

Oh no! That's not good at all. They generally survive the washer pretty well, but the dryer does them in. If you had a lot of nice clothes in that load- Shaklee products are about the best I've used for cleaning-up lipstick. They're a little on the pricey side- but I love their Simple H2 multi-purpose cleaner (we use that in the shop to clean counters), liquid laundry detergent, and Nature Bright. Soak them in Nature Bright for a while and then wash them with the detergent and they should be presentable again.

They only sell them online, or through their independent distributer network (like Mary Kay)- but for the messes I make they're worth it. Their site is http://www.shaklee.com

I ran over mine and found it about 5 weeks later, around the same parking spot - it's easier to park where you want when you get to work at 7:30!

I've been looking for my Infatuation lippie and finally found it.. in a freshly washed pair of shorts. Sigh...

It looks fine and smells ok... question is whether its still good to use? anyone?

I have done this, too. I washed my Toffee lippie and caught it just before the load went in the dryer. I have been using it and it seems fine. I can't see any reason not to use it as long as the texture is good and it is not wet.

I tried it and my lips haven't fallen off or anything.

tho' honestly, I don't like the colour... just doesn't suit me. Will probably see if anyone else wants it. LOL! don't worry I'll let them know what happened to it before giving it away.

Frond,

You can mix the lippie colours if you feel Infatuation is too light!

I've washed and dried my lippies at least once each, Ok, I admit it , i'm horrible about not checking my scrub top pockets. At anyrate, I've been able to use mine each time, as the color and texture have still been ok. I will admit that they weren't meant to be washed and dried on a regular basis, I have to take the cap off to figure out what color it is, since none of the labels are readable anymore. Hollis
