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.

Revlon Colourburst Matte and Lacquer Balms

 

 

 I am a fan of lip crayons, I love the whole concept of it. They're super easy to apply because of the shape of the crayon. When I bought one of the Revlon Colourburst Laquer Balms back when they knew, I absolutely fell in love with them. Now that I have some more added to my collection, including the Matte Balms, I thought I would share my thoughts on them.

Revlon Colourburst Lip Laquer in 105 'Demure'

I'd had my eye in this shade ever since I saw people saying it was their favourite. Demure is a lovely warmer toned nude pink, almost a peachy pink. I love this shade as it is very flattering and is my go to nude lip product. It does have specs of shimmer running through it which I think is quite nice. I love this shade and it is definitely my favourite, it is very natural and quite sheer so it doesn't wash you out. I prefer the formula of the lip Laquers to the Matte balm because they are more moisturising and glossy. They are very soft to apply and don't dry out your lips. However the lasting power isn't amazing, I'd say it lasts for about 3-4 hours before the colour begins to fade, maybe even less than that if you are eating/ drinking. But I cannot rave about this shade enough, if you haven't swatched it and looked at it already I really recommend you should. 

Revlon Colourburst Matte Balm in 205 'Elusive'

When I planned on picking up one of the matte balms, I actually was going to buy the shade Compoex which is a nude. However in the shop I swatched it and it looked like it would was me out so I went for the shade Elusive instead. Elusive is a medium pink that is quite blue toned. Personally I am not a fan of blue toned pinks as I think they make me look like I am wearing a barbie pink lipstick. But I quite like this one, the colour is very natural and nice and doesn't make me look to weird. The formula is very surprisingly nice, I expected it to dry my lips out after a while which it doesn't. It feels very buttery to apply and makes my lips very soft. I would recommend exfoliating your lips before you apply it as it can stick to dry patches. Overall I am really impressed with this, but I am more of a glossy lip girl and I'm not a fan of mattes. But for a matte lipstick it is very good and I still love it.

Revlon Colourburst Lip Laquer in 120 'Vivacious'

I picked this up back in Februray when they were knew. I love the colour as it's super bright and flattering on my skin tone. It is a bright hot pink which I think would look nice on all skin tones. Although I prefer to apply it lightly so it isn't so bold. Again, the formula is incredible and so moisturising. I really recommend these Revlon Crayons, the formula is amazing and there are so many more beautiful shades to pick from.

For all the Colourburst Crayons, matte and Laquer, there is a slight pepperminty scent which is refreshing and feels quite cool on the lips. Something that attracts me the most to these crayons has got to be the packaging, I am a sucker for bright coloured packaging. The Laquer balms have a shiny packaging which I love the most and the matte balms (obviously) have a matte packaging. I like how the packaging (the amount of times I have said packaging in this paragraph is unreal) is the same as the actual lip product as it means you can easily pick which one you want to use. My favourite is the shade Demure as I think it looks so nice and the colour is gorgeous. I prefer the Laquer balms to the matte balms but that's not because the matte balms are bad. Personally I just don't like matte lips in general. I hope you enjoyed this post. Thanks for reading, bye!

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!

 

Benefit Fine One One for Summer Cheeks ~ Summer in the Sun Series

 

 

 

 

 

Okay so I'm going to try mixing a review into my summer in the sun series, hopefully it will work. So seeing as summer is all about glowing cheeks and bright colours, i thought The Benefit Fine One One cheek trio would be perfect. Firstly I just want to say thanks to my best friend who bought me this for my birthday :)

The packaging of this is gorgeous, I love anything rose gold so that was definitely a bonus. Once you take the lid of you can see what the actual products looks liked there are three shades an orange, a pinky coral and a shimmery highlight. Once you twist the button type thing you just swipe it across you cheeks in an upwards motion (the shimmery highlight on top.) Then you just blend the colours in to create gorgeous coral and shimmery cheeks.

I love the whole concept of it as it's super easy to use and I don't think I've seen anything like it. The formula is great as well as it is creamy and incredibly easy to blend. It blends smoothly and doesn't leave streaky marks. The colours are so fun and summery and look lovely on. If you are willing to spend your money in Benefit, this is something I recommend looking at as it is really unique and pretty. However once the cream has blended, it does kind of blend in and become quite unnoticeable, which then makes me put more on and make the product run out faster. Cheeky Benefit I see what you're doing haha no just kidding. I just don't blend it to its full potential.

Overall I love this product and I think it is perfect for summer, in fact I think it's great all year round. The colours are lovely and so is the packaging. I love how original the idea is and I wish more brands did similar things. I hope you enjoyed this post and thanks for reading! Bye!

Sweetie Pie Lush Box

Hey beauties! Today's blog post is going to be about the Sweetie Pie Lush Box. My best friend gave this to me as it was my birthday on Thursday. I am so grateful for it and I would just like to say thank you so much!

It is an octagonal shape and is pink with a yellow, orange and white floral pattern with yellow ribbon. When I opened it, the smell was so enchanting and dreamy and smells like heaven. I cannot begin to describe how excited I am to use this. Inside it contains 7 different lush products. There is the Shimmy Shimmy Glitter Bar, Think Pink Bath Ballistic, Sweetie Pie Shower Jelly, Sunnyside Bubble Bar, Creamy Candy Bubble Bar, Rock Star Soap and the Space girl Bath Ballistic.

I am very excited to use the shower jelly as it is something I have not tried out before, as well as the glitter bar. I have tried the Think Pink and Space Girl bath bombs and I actually loved them. Space girl is one of my favourites so I am looking forward to using that again. The rock star soap smells incredible as well, very sweet and girly. The bubble bars are also very intriguing, especially the Sunnyside bubble bar as it is very glittery so I would love to see how that comes out as! I have also heard many lovely things about the creamy candy bar so I can imagine my bath being very bubble and creamy as it contains almond oil and cocoa butter so that should be very moisturising.

As you can tell I am very excited about this lush box and I cannot contain my excitement about it. If you have the opportunity to buy this I would recommend it as the choice of products are very good and you get the chance to try out different products. I would just like to thank my best friend, you know who you are :) for giving this to me for my birthday. Thanks for reading and I hope you have a nice day, bye!

Tanya Burr Aurora Lipgloss Review

Hey beauties! Today I have a review on the lipglosses by Tanya Burr. If you don't already know who she is, she is a YouTuber who makes beauty videos. I am going to be reviewing one of her lipglosses from her Lips and Nails makeup range. The shade I have is called Aurora which is a really nice name because it is like the Disney Princess (Sleeping Beauty.)

The packaging of the product is really nice as you can see the colour of the lipgloss. It is rectangula and the lid has a really satisfying click when you open and close it haha. I picked up Aurora because it looked like a natural, rosy pink colour. There is a slight shimmer in this shade which I also like about it. But one of my favourite things about the lipglosses is that it smells amazing! It smells really yummy like raspberry sweets. 

The actual formula of the lipgloss is really good. It is not sticky and applies really evenly and smoothly. It is also very nicely pigmented and isn't too glossy but still has a nice shine to it. I really like this shade because it isn't too in your face but it isn't a nude colour either. I think it is a perfect, rosy pink.

Overall I a really impressed with this product and congratulations Tanya Burr for creating such an amazing makeup range. This lipgloss is priced at £6.99 which is a decent price and I definitely recommend them. There is a wide range of gorgeous colours and I would really like to pic up some more! Thanks for reading and I hope you enjoyed this post! Have a nice day, bye!
