Lips of the Day #7: Rimmel Kate Moss in 107

So in my most recent haul, I finally picked up a Kate Moss for Rimmel lipstick. I've heard amazing things about the Lasting Finish Matte range, so naturally I went for the most beautiful red. I can't figure out if I love this lipstick. I LOVE the finish, the colour isn't as deep as I would of liked, but it has wonderful blue tones that make your teeth sparkly white, and I can definitely get along with that. The lipstick has amazing staying power and glides on the lips so easily that application takes seconds. I enjoy the packaging too, it feels nice in your hand (is that a weird thing to say?!) and is sturdy enough to not open itself in your handbag. The lipstick has a smell to it, its kind of sweet, and I do like the smell, but I don't like it in a lipstick, and I notice it for ages after application. This is an easy red that anyone can get along with though, and I think that explains it's popularity, and I'm happy to have it in my collection.

Lips of The Day #6: Mac Lipstick in Ravishing

I am very excited to announce the arrival of my first Mac Lipstick! Up until now I was a mac lipstick virgin, and with my lip collection, this surprised me too!

One of the main reasons I have never bought a mac lipstick is the shop near me is horrible. Its a a department store and the staff are fine and lovely, but its always so busy and I like to take my time when makeup shopping, swatching anything and everything on my hand. For this reason I tend to steer clear of mac shops and much prefer online - but with lipsticks you can't tell! I took my mum shopping for her birthday recently and I saw this colour and snapped it up. In the store I really adored it, and then I got it home and I'm not really sure. It's a cremesheen formula and I really prefer matte lipsticks, or a satin. Nothing too high shine... but this one, I'm really torn. Say hello to Ravishing.

The colour is just lovely, and the lipstick actually smells and tastes really nice too. I know because its cremesheen it won't last as a well as a matte lipstick and this definitely comes off and needs a re-application after lunch. I do love the colour though - a wonderful mixture of peachy pink and it does have a little bit of a gold tinge in the shine I think.

Lips of the Day #5

I  feel like I haven't done a lips of the day in ages! I thought I would showcase one of my favourite lipsticks - No7 Moisture Drench in 04 Romantic. Its one of my favourite pinky nude colours that I reach for when I don't know what to wear, and it matches everything. It's a satin/matt finish is really pigmented and long lasting.

I'm also wearing my new foundation - which happens to be Bourjois Healthy Mix. What do we think?

Lips of the Day #4

Today I wanted a quite understanded lip - I'd gone for some 60's inspired eye makeup, and teamed it with Rimmel's Apocalips in Nude Eclipse.

Lips of the Day #3

Today I didn't feel like wearing lots of make-up, so I've gone for a very light eyeshadow and no eyeliner. Today's lipstick is Max Factor's Lipfinity in 006 Barely Blush. It is a really subtle peachy-pink colour with a matte finish and is just perfect for subtle days.

Lips of the Day #2

Today's lipstick is NYX's Jumbo Lip Pencil in 724 Chaos! I adore this deep vampy red - it has such a lux finish and I've not found another red in such a perfect shade.

Lips Of The Day

So I'm starting a new little section called "lips of the day" as I wear lots of lipsticks and its about time I shared them all with you. Today we've got Nyx's Jumbo Lip Pencil in 720 Honey.
