Lip Products

All about lipsticks & Lip Stains..

So, let's start with lipsticks, I had been dying to buy a nice Nude lippy for myself. I had tried the drugstore to find that perfect nude shade but after trying and also buying a couple of nude shade lipsticks, I still wasn't satisfied with the shades I had. Girl problems right? Yup. And to be honest I wasnt looking to go and buy an expensive Nude lipstick. But thanks to my sister who was in Germany and was very kind enough to buy me the Mac Viva Glam II. Omg you guys it's like the best Nude lipstick I own. I absolutely love it. It is really creamy and pigmented. And the colour just looks amazing on the lips. It goes with any look, whether it be a smokey look or a natural daytime look. 

There are more lipsticks I want to talk about so I will keep the descriptions short & sweet :D.


The other lipsticks I want to talk about are from a drugstore brand, Max Factor. Right, this is one brand that I just haven't bought much make-up from. I don't know why that is. Maybe it's a good thing. Mmm I don't know. But I was in the Boots the other week and was just looking through their lipsticks. And decided to buy only 2 colour. Like can you believe it? Only 2? Yes I know.. But I just had to pick the 2 I really wanted to buy. So the colours I bought are Bewitching Coral and the other one is Dusky rose. 

The Bewitching Coral.. Well as the name suggests, yes it is a coral colour. It's a beautiful pink with a tiny hint of red. Absolutely gorgeous colour that is. I have swatches of the colour, so don't think I have forgot.  As this colour is a bit on the bright side i wore it with a neutral eye, as I didn't want to look like I had a lot going on, on my face, and also I don't like putting on too many colours. Don't want to look like a clown :P no offence to anyone who loves wearing a lot of colour. This is just my opinion :). This one is a kind of a matte finish.

These are the swatches of the three lippies.
The other colour the Dusky Rose is a bit hard to explain. But I will try, so here goes. This is a really nice satin dull pink, but with a satin finish. The colour to me honestly looks like a mixture of pink and plum but more on the pink side with a hint of plum and purple, the only reason I am saying that because I couldn't decide on one colour. But this is a really nice colour if like me you love pink lips. I absolutely love pink lips as I think they go with any kind of look just like a nude lipstick. And I think I have more pink lipsticks than any other colour. So weird. But I am swear they are all different kind of pinks ;-).





So another 2 lip products and that will be it :D hopefully this isn't too long. It's just when I start writing I just keep going on and on. 

So this other lip product is also from the drugstore. Yes I love the drugstore product, especially the lip products.  

This one is not a lipstick but a lip stain, and it's from the brand Revlon. It's the ColourBlast lip crayon in the colour 001 Honey Douce. Yes another pink, am sorry I couldn't help myself. This I would again say it is a mauve pink/purple. But when you put it on your lips, well when I put it on my lips it slightly darker than my actual lip colour. Funny?? Yes I know but you can still tell I have some kind of lip product on. This is really hydrating when you put it on. As you can tell this is a stain but I don't feel it stays on for long enough, maybe even less than an hour on my lips. But it still a good product, if you are some one who like lip balms and want something that has a hint of colour in it, then this particular colour is for you. Just something you can throw in the handbag and apply it when needed :). Really handy and compact that way. 

And the last product I would like to talk about is also from the drugstore brand called Bourjois. And it is also a lip product. And this is also a Stain. This one is from the Rouge Edition Velvet Matte Finish in the colour 07 Nude-ist. This is also a beautiful Mauve colour. Omg you guys as it suggests it is a lip stain and a very good one. I am absolutely in love with this lip product. I had this on today and this colour stayed on the whole day. I am not even joking. The pigmentation of this product is amazing. It did not budge of my lips, even after drinking water from a bottle the whole day. And I did not have to touch up or anything. And this is the colour Kylie Jenner has on her lips at the moment. I think i need to try the other colours too now :P but not just now I think. 

Right guys that is it for now. I shall be back with another post.
Hope you enjoy.

  1. This is a lovely assortment of lip products. I think you have chosen a nice variety of colours and finishes and I'm sure you will have something to wear for every occasion now! The nude Viva Glam lipstick sounds amazing! The Revlon ColourBlast lip crayon seems like it may be more of a tinted lip balm than anything else but it's still a nice product nonetheless. xx
