My Top Autumn Lipsticks

Autumn is a time of berry shades and dark lipsticks. So I bring you my Top 3 Autumn lipsticks consisting of a dark vampy shade, a classic red and a berry shade. How very autumnal!

Rimmel Kate Moss 107

Probably the most typical autumn lipstick out there, but it's because it is the most perfect autumnal shade! It's the perfect mix between a red and a purple creating the most beautiful dark vampy berry shade. However it's not too dark that it is still very wearable. I can see myself wearing this lipstick a lot this season (whose to say I haven't already worn it?) It is a matte finish which I think is best for such a bold lipstick. It also means that it lasts a long time and doesn't slip and slide everywhere. For around the £5 mark, you can't go wrong with this lipstick

Revlon Lip Butter 'Berry Smoothie'

Sometimes you may want to have a more subtle autumn lip option, and for me that is this lipstick. The Revlon Lip Butters are like a very pigmented tinted lip balm, they are moisturising, hydrating but also have a lot of colour in them. This shade is a really pretty pinky berry colour (hence the name) and when applied will leave you lips feeling nice and moisturised but also leaves a nice tint on them!

Rimmel Kate Moss 08

This doesn't look like your typical autumn lipstick shade as it's more of an autumn nude shade. I really love the colour of this lipstick as it is a dark mauve/ pink nude shade and is definitely, for me, a my lips but better shade. I never really hear many people talking about this lipstick but the colour is stunning and so is the formula. It isn't a matte finish like the 107 shade, but it is very creamy and pigmented and smells really nice as well!

L'Oreal Colour Riche 461 'Scarlett Creme' 

I think red is probably the best autumn and winter colour. So why not wear it as a lipstick? I'd say this is more for Christmas time as red is very festive. But it's September now so that means Christmas is very near (as you can tell I'm very excited for Christmas!) the quality of L'Oreal Lipsricks are incredible and they are about £7 which is so good for the lipstick! The lipstick is very pigmented and glides on smoothly. I really recommend you try out some of the L'Oreal Lipsticks!

Summer Lip Choices

There haven't been too many summer related posts on my blog this year, so I thought about doing one and I decided to do it on my Summer Lip Options. For me, summer makeup is all about the pink and coral lips and wearing really peachy toned lipsticks. So I have picked out a few of my favourite lipsticks for this summer!

Bourjois Colour Boost Lip Crayon // Peach on The Beach

This is a summer must have! I absolutely adored using this lip crayon last summer and I have also been loving it this year too! It's a peachy pink shade which is really pretty and the name is also adorable! The actual lip crayon is nice and hydrating to apply and very pigmented which is always good! But it has a nice sheen to it which is nice as I'm not a fan of matte lips in summer.

Revlon Colourburst  Lip Butter // Sweet Tart // Sorbet

In this post I've included two Revlon Lip Butters because they are my absolute favourite! The colours are so pretty and because they are a mix between a lip balm and a lip stick, it means they are really moisturising when applied. They are slightly sheer which means you can build the colour up depending on your preference. The shade Sorbet is a much darker and bolder pink so I tend to wear this more sheer. I also like the shade Sweet Tart which is a really pretty pink and easy to wear.

MAC Lipstick // Chatterbox

Chatterbox is the perfect pink shade! You can build it up for a very bold pink look, or you can wear it more muted (how I prefer to wear it) for a more subtle pink lip option! This lipstick is really creamy to apply and I think it is an Amplified finish which is one of my favourites finishes from MAC.

MUA Lipstick // Nectar Shade 16

If you're looking for a bargain lipstick, this is the way to go as MUA lipsticks are only £1! They are also very pigmented which is surprising for such a cheap lipstick, the colour I have is a peach shade and is really suitable for summer. The formula of the lipstick is also very creamy but can be a little but drying after a while so make sure your lips are hydrated before you apply it!

Maybelline Colour Sensational Popstick // Chery Pop

I've recently started using this lipstick a lot more as I used to quite dislike it a while ago as it's a bit deceiving. The lipstick looks red in the bullet but is orange when swatched (?) It is a very sheer lipstick, almost like a tinted lip balm but I quite like that as it means I can add a bit of colour to my lips to give it a slightly red (and also orange) tint to my lips. Plus it smells like cherries which is always a bonus!

So there are all my lip options for this summer, I hope you enjoyed this post! Thanks for reading!

Underrated Lip Products

I'm sure we all have some of those lipsticks which you bought because you heard people raving about them, I know I am guilty of doing that! But there are some lip products in my collection which I haven't heard many people talk about. These are what I am talking about in today's post, it's all about the underrated lip products!

The first products is the Collection Work The Colour Lip Butter in the shade 3 'Vintage Rose'. I have heard lots of bloggers talk about lip crayons from other brands such as Clinique and Revlon, but I think the Collection ones weren't talked about that much because there are so many other lip crayons out there! I quite like the shade that I have because I don't really have one like it, it's almost a mix between a pink and a brown. I would describe it as a neutral pink with brown undertones. So this shade is very difficult to explain but I also really like how creamy and buttery the formula is. But because of this creaminess, it doesn't last that long. For £2.99 I think these are actually really good, however the shade range is quite limited and I do feel like there are lots of lip crayons out there.

The next lip stick I have chosen is from L'Oreal. I know that the L'oreal Colour Riche Exclusive Nudes and Pure Reds Collections (the ones with black and gold packaging) were quite talked about. But I haven't heard much about their original Colour Riche Lipsticks, my one is in the shade 256 'Blush Fever.' The colour is a really natural pink and it has a slight shine and shimmer to it. The formula is really good, it feels really good quality, which is why I really like it. Even the packaging looks expensive. I really want to pick up some more shades from L'Oreal as their lipsticks are really nice!

This lipstick is probably one of my favourites, and when it runs out I will definitely repurchase it! Its the Rimmel Kate Moss Lipstick 08. It is the perfect nude and suits my lips and skin tone so well. It is a slight mauve shade and is one of those Kylie Jenner-ish shades. I have talked about this lipstick a lot on my blog, but it's because it is such a pretty liptsick!

I don't wear lip glosses that much, but if I am going to then I like to wear the Barry M Lipgloss 'Toffee' as it is a relly nice natural brown shade. I included this in my Top 5 Nude Lipsticks post from a while back (read it here!) and it just is a really nude! It's so quick and easy to apply and is really not sticky and also smells like Toffee which is always a bonus.

So there we have it, all the underrated lip products in my lip collection! I hope you enjoyed this post and thank you for reading!

What lip products that you own do you think are underrated?

Top Pink Products for Spring

 

 

 

 

 

One of my favourite colours to wear in Spring is Pink. It just seems like such a spring appropriate colour, corals and brighter neon colours are more summer. But neutral and pastels are always in for spring! I have put together my favourite pink products that are perfect for this spring.

 

Blush and Eyes

 

My favourite brand for when it comes to blushes is definitely Sleek. The products are amazing quality and really pigmented. I have the Sleek Blush in Pixie Pink. It's a gorgeous bright pink that is just the right pigmentations, by this I mean it isn't too bright but not too subtle. Just right!

 

The other blush in the photo is from Topshop and its a cream blush in the shade Flush. It's a cream to powder formula so it blends nicely and gives your cheeks a nice pink flush, hence the name :D

 

I have a little eyeshadow that is so pretty, the swatch of it doesn't show how stunning it is in real life! It's from No7 in Antique Rose and is a lovely gold and pink eyeshadow. It is nice and shimmery but also very natural at the same time!

 

Lips

 

If you've been reading my blog for a while, you may know that I do love my pink lispticks. I find them so easy to wear and they can suit anyone with any skin tones! For this post I decided to pick out my most pink lipsticks that would be perfect for spring. Most of my favourite lip products are from Revlon, so I have included the Revlon Matte Balm in Elusive. This is a gorgeous medium toned pink, its so natural and is also really creamy and not at all drying.

 

I also love the Revlon Lip Butters and I chose the shade Strawberry Shortcake. The lip butters from Revlon are so hydrating and feel like lip balms, this shade is a light nude pink and is such a nice spring shade.

 

 I think MAC lipsticks are such amazing quality so I couldn't not include it in this post, its the MAC lipstick in Chatterbox. Again, its a very pretty everyday pink. Finally, to change things up a bit I have included a lip gloss.

 

 It is the Tanya Burr lipgloss in Aurora. I absolutely love this lip gloss, especially the name. Its actually very good quality and I have a whole post dedicated to it here.

 

Brushes

 

I know, I know, I only chose these brushes because of their pink packaging. But it was too pretty to ignore and just fitted nicely with the post! So from top to bottom in the picture (they are all from Real Techniques by the way, I'll just tell you the name of the brush.) Multitasking Brush which I use for powder and sometimes blending in foundation, Setting Brush which I use to blend my under eye concealer and the Stippling Brush which I love to use for foundation.

 

So those are my top pink products for spring. I hope you enjoyed this post and tell me your Top Spring Products in the comments below! Thank you for reading.

Lip Crayon Obsession

I've slowly grown an obsession with Lip Crayons and I thought I would share with you the collection that I have! 

The first 3 are all from Revlon and I think these have to be my favourite! The first one is the Revlon Matte Balm in 'Elusive', it has a really creamy consistency and isn't drying at all! The next 2 are both the Revlon Laqcquer Balms in shades: 'Vivacious' and 'Demure'. I think demure has to be my all time favourite as it's the perfect nude! Vivacious is also a really nice bold pink shade.

The 4th lip crayon is the newest to my collection, I got it for Christmas and it's from Collection. It's the Collection Work the Colour Lip Butter in 'Vintage Rose'. It's a browny pink nude and is very creamy. I don't really have a shade like it so I really like this lip crayon!

Last but not least ( I can assure you I will probably have more lip crayons in the future!) is the Bourjois Colourboost in the shade Peach on the Beach. If you've been reading my blog for a while, you'll know that I was obsessed with this product last summer as it's such a pretty peachy summery shade!

As you can see lip crayons are really my favourite! What are your favourite lip crayons? 

Shades of Red

When it comes to red lips, you can choose from many different shades of red. I picked out some of my red lipsticks with different undertones. I chose the orange undertoned red, the classic red and the dark and vampy red.

The Orange Red - Revlon Clourburst Lipstick in Coral 080

I think orangey red lipsticks are stunning in summer, I also think that they compliment brunette hair nicely. But obviously it looks lovely on other hair shades as well! I also love the formula of this lipstick, it's creamy and moisturising and doesn't dry out my lips.

The Classic Red - L'oreal Colour Riche lipstick in Scarlett Creme 461

I got this lipstick in a loreal set for Christmas, and it's my first red lipstick. The formula is amazing and, like the Revlon one, is creamy and moisturising. I'd say it has a satin finish as it isn't matte but isn't glossy either. This really compliments my skin tone as well I think, which is always what you want in a lipstick I'd say. I just wish I had blonde hair and a fringe then I could have the perfect Taylor swift red lip look, haha but fringes really dont suit me so that's a no! I also love the packaging of L'oreal lipsticks as they look so classy with the gold casing!

The Dark and Vampy Red - Rimmel Kate Moss lipstick 107

I can't believe how late I am on the bandwagon for this lipstick, I'm sure you've heard all about this lipstick. It's such a gorgeous vampy lip shade, perfect for autumn and winter (although autumn has kind of passes - told you I was late on this lipstick!) This lipstick is from Kate Moss's Matte lipstick range, I expected this to be a bit drying but it totally isn't! It applies smoothly and lasts a very long time, this is an amazing lipstick range ( I featured this in my recent post as well!)

 

As you can see, there are many different shades of red lipsticks to wear. In fact, there are probably more but I don't have any other red lipsticks. I hope you enjoyed this post and thank you for reading!

 

 

Summer Orange Lips ~ Summer in the Sun

 

 

 

Summer is the time to bring out the bold and bright colours on to the lips. I love wearing pinks, but this year its all about bold orange lips. I have a range of different shades of orange, from peachy more muted oranges to bold almost red oranges.

 

The first orange lipstick I have is by Revlon. It is the Revlon Colourburst Lipstick in 'Coral'. This is a very bold fiery orange. It is almost red but still classes as an orange. If you want to wear a daring colour this summer, this would be a good lipstick to go for. But I'm not to keen on the smell as it is quite chemically. Apart from the smell, this lipstick is really pigmented and lasts very long.

 

 

If you are looking for a more subtle and wearable orange, I recommend the MUA lipstick in shade 16 'Nectar'. For £1 you cant really go wrong with this. The formula is amazing as the lipstick is smooth and creamy and highly pigmented. I love the colour as it is a peachy colour and not so bold. The only bad thing about the MUA lipsticks is the packaging, but I guess you get what you pay for. However the actual lipstick is great.

 

The next orange lipstick I have is a bit of a weird one, as you can see the lipstick in the bullet looks red but when swatched comes out orange. But trust me when I say it looks better on the lips than in the swatches, for some reason it looks almost yellow :/ Anyway, this lipstick is the Maybelline Coloursensational Popstick in Cherry Pop. I have done a full review on this here. I am slightly disappointed in this lipstick as the colour was not what I expected. It is quite sheer which is good because that means it won't be too strong, especially as the colour is a bit odd. But the smell and the packaging is definitely pleasing! It smells like cherries and the packaging is very lovely. Overall, I wouldn't recommend it though, but I put it in this post anyway,

 

The last orange lip product is the Too Faced Sweet Sun Shines Lip Gloss in 'Papaya Slushie'. I love this lip gloss, its such a lovely colour and feels very creamy and glossy on the lips. There are tiny little specs of gold shimmer which adds a bit more to the lips. If you can get your hands on this I really recommend it. I cant even think of anything bad to say about it!

 

I hope you enjoyed this blog post. Do you like wearing orange in summer? What's your go to orange lip product? Thanks for reading and have a nice day, bye!

 

Battle of the Lip Crayons

 

 

                                 

                                        

 

               

Hey guys! Today's blog post is going to be comparing lip crayons. Back in 2013 when Clinique came out with their Chubby Sticks, many other brands decided to come out with their own editions of lip crayons. Bourjois came out with them, ModelsOwn, Rimmel, MUA and many more. You may be thinking that this blogpost is a year late and haha its true but today I'm going to be comparing the Bourjois, Revlon and Primark (yes I said it, Primark!!) lip crayons. Primark have recently came out with their P.S Love makeup range. I was watching Velvetgh0st and BeccaRose 's videos on YouTube as they both did a Primark haul which included this new beauty range. The products they mentioned looked quite nice and good quality so I decided to purchase some. Anyway enough about that and onto the blogpost. This blogpost includes the Revlon Colourburst Laquer Balm in 120 Vivacious, Primark P.S Lip Gloss Crayon in the nude shade (no name) and the Bourjois Colourboost Lip Crayon in Peach on the Beach.

Starting with the Revlon one. I included this in my Mini Haul blog post which you can view here . The shade I have is in 120 or Vivacious. It's a hot pink and is very glossy and pigmented. It comes out really bright so I don't tend to apply a lot. The Revlon Lip Crayons are very good and pigmented. I really want to get some more neutral shades as this one is quite bright. They also have a peppermint scent which can actually be quite mildly refreshing on the lips, however I'm not a fan of mint so I don't actually like it. For £7.99 these are very good. Definitely going to be purchasing more of these (though I have quite a lot of lip products already haha.)

The Primark lip crayon is actually quite nice. For £1.50 you can't exactly go wrong though can you? I got a nude browny shade, there was also a pale pink and another colour which I cant remember. These lip crayons are quite sheer though, so it's more of a gloss. But I think its quite nice that its sheer as I can wear it to school etc. To be honest I wasn't expecting it to be as good as maybe Revlon for eg, but surprisingly it's not bad. The bit where you twist it is a bit loose but it still works. Also it's really moisturising and glossy.

Moving on the the Bourjois Colourboost Lip crayon. I can remember when these came out in summer and everyone had it (except for me haha). But now I do have it and I'm glad I do. The lip crayons are so nice and are really pigmented! I have the shade Peach on the Beach which is a bright corally peach and I think it's perfect for summer. This is £8.99 which is £1 more expensive than the Revlon one.

My favourite lip crayon is probably the Revlon ones because they have a nice colour range and are really nice. Also they're cheaper than the Bourjois ones haha. But I do actually really like the Revlon ones and I totally recommend you give it a try. But I still recommend the other two, especially the Primark one seeing as it's a bargain! Anyway, I hope you enjoyed this blogpost and be sure to follow me on bloglovin and Instagram. Have a nice day, bye!
