S'ALL ABOUT THE POUT #2

 LIP GLOSS REVIEW

MAC's lipglass in curvaceous (£12.50) looks dark grey/purple when packaged; which... sort of scared me... I thought "okay this is NOT going to suit my skin tone" and thought it would look better on someone with dark skin. However- when applied it gives more of a pale nude/light pink colour which I love- especially when layered over concealer/foundation for a neutral base. Okay so it's a little sticky- (but not gloopy), and needs to be reapplied every hour or so but I'm still loving it purely for the colour!


Right so.. my friend sent me the L'oreal lip gloss from NYC and I am unsure whether this is on sale yet in the UK. Google only provided my with US based websites and prices which say it retails for $12, which I think is about £7... So sorry UK lovelies but this may be a wait-and-see product!
The lip gloss itself goes on really smooth, and smells like vanilla - Gorge! Precarious is a mixture between coral and orange which is quiet daring for me; as I've mentioned before, I'm not the biggest wearer of lip colour! Saying that- I'm kinda liking it!! It made my eyes look super-blue which is always a bonus and for a gloss, the colour lasted really well. So, US girlies- get buying.. and UK beauts, keep your eyes out!

My favorite... my favorite.. tra la laa. LOVE-THIS.
Right girls... listen up. If you're wanting to try a new lip gloss- try this and let me know what you think because I LURVE it!!
It reminds me of Soap&Glory's "Sexy Mutha Pucker" but without the pain of the plumping! Too Faced glamour gloss has a really cooling sensation when applied which lasts for ages and is so fresh! There's a little tackiness to it, but no sticky, gloopy gloss which is a bonus. Plus it lasts for ages - I've been wearing it for work and it's lasted me the whole 5 hours with no re-application. The colour (This is pretty) is neutral enough for anyone to pull off so is definitely one to try!
You can buy Too Faced Glamour Gloss from ASOS.com for £14.50... DOOO IT.

S'ALL ABOUT THE POUT #1

LIPSTICK REVIEW
The Bobbi Brown creamy lip colour retails in Selfridges for £18... I don't usually wear much lip colour, and this is the perfect everyday nude for me. Barely there colour, but moisturising and with just enough gloss- loveee.

Dior Rouge can be bought for £22.50 in Selfridges so is definitely a 'higher-end' lip colour. The Rose Allegro colour is a kind of vampy-plum colour; very autumn/winter! Its colour is highly pigmented yet buildable, so it doesn't totally scare you off with the first coat... but if you're daring you could go darker and darker. (I'm not there yet!)

Like the Dior Rouge, Dior Addict retails at £22 in House of Fraser- so again, a little pricey. More glossy than the rouge, but less pigmented; I find the Dior Addict more wearable through the day. It's also super moisturising and lasts a-a-a-a-a-ges!
