Welcome to tubeoFLIPgloss! This is my very first blog. The main reason I decided to start this blog was to contribute to swatching makeup that I own. As I've gotten into collecting makeup more (and buying it online especially), I've searched for swatches and have been appreciative of those who have posted them. I thought I could possibly help those wanting to have another view of what certain products look like by starting my own blog. I also thought it would be an easy way to be able to list and quickly view the makeup products I do own. That thought was triggered by me going through my collection the other day to throw out old products and noticing I had a few tubes of the same lipstick (and it's a bad color for me to make matters worse). I impulsively buy the cheaper makeup a lot, just to test out a color. And not all of my makeup is together; it is scattered all over, in different containers in different locations in my home. I have some things I use on a regular basis and keep together, and stuff I've collected over the last several years that I have in other areas. I'd forgotten that I'd already bought that particular shade of lipstick a couple of times before as a result.
I also thought I might as well have a place for my musings on some of my other interests, such as TV shows and Olympic sports (gymnastics and figure skating in particular). So combining those main three interests together, I came up with tubeoFLIPgloss (tube for TV, FLIP for Olympic sports - gymnastics/figure skating in particular, gloss - or the overall name, tubeoflipgloss - for makeup).
For anyone viewing this blog, I'd like to say thank you for stopping by, and I hope you enjoy it or find it at least a little informative.
