Top three lipsticks

Hello everyone,

For this weeks post I am coming at you with a beauty post, sharing with you my three top lipsticks! I have covered every price range I would say from drugstore, semi high end and high end! I am starting to get back into the beauty posts slowly, as I have a few more up my sleeve!

(For some reason in the pictures they look much brighter, but the swatches are more true to colour)

Sleek Matte Me in Birthday Suit: 

This is a matte liquid lipstick and I have to say it's aa very nice one, my friends and I all picked this up in Superdrug during out break and we all are in love with the colour and the formula. The colour is a rose nude beige, the formula is easy to apply with the applicator, but not the neater way applicator. I would say this does last a good amount of time, without feeling too dry but tacky over time it 'disasters' in the centre of the lips, so application is needed throughout the day. This is a very flattering shade and I struggle wether I am going to wear this or Velvet Teddy. I also apply Mac Spice lip liner under neath, which isn't needed but I like the more intense colour. (Price - £4.99, link)

Mac Velvet Teddy:

I haven't had velvet teddy for long, not even a year yet and this is the most I have gone through a lipstick! I was never into nude lipsticks too much, letting no a beige nude. I am going to make a big claim, this is I think the best nude lipstick I have used. This is such a flattering colour, but it's just so easy to wear and goes with everything! This isn't the most drying lipstick i've tried, but it goes on so well and it's my everyday lipstick. (Price - £15.50, link)

Bobbi Brown cream lip colour in Rose petal:

I got this lipstick as part of a box gift set from Bobbi Brown for my birthday, as i've always wanted to try their lipsticks especially! This was the shade that I picked out, as I wanted a your lips but better shade, this is a pink/peach nude which looks very flattering for everyday especially! This is more of a glaze type shade, but it's beautiful on the lips and completes any look you have on. This doesn't last for too long as this is more of a 'shimmer' but it glides on the lips, and one you can put on without a mirror! (Price - £20, link)

Favourites// A bit of everything

Hello everyone,

Good morning, I am up bright and early today, and instead of watching TV I thought I would do a blog post today. I am going to show you what I have been loving lately/ my top 5 favouirtes this week/month.

I have a mix of everything this month, which I suppose is a good thing!

I am going to talk about my sunnies first, these sunglasses are from Next. They look just like Ray Ban Club Masters, which are stunning. These were only £12.50, they suite me quite well I think. But the thing I love the most about this are they don't have a nose thing in the middle, this is great because it doesn't get stuck in your hair when you put them on the top of your head. I would reccomend these a great pair for the sunny months.(Couldn't find link)

Now moving onto something I have been loving for quite a while now, and this is the Maybelline Fit Me Concealer, I have the shade 15. This is a great coverage concealer without being over the top, I use this for under my eyes and on redness or blemishes. This is priced really well for a drugstore concealer, I highly reccomend this for everyone looking for a new concealer. - £5.99 (Link)

Next I have to mention a lip colour i'm loving. This is the MUA Power Pout in Justify. This is a very natural coral lip crayon, I think this is great if your looking to venture into different lip colours. The pigmentation is like a Cherry Me Baby lips sort of pigment, but you can build this up to look more vibrant and bold. These are only £3 (Link)

I only have one high end favourite, this is the Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick in Pink Quartz, Tanya Burr has been going on about for a lot recently. This is why I decided to dig it out again, it is a perfect highlight, it makes you look glowing and healthy. I would reccomend this for a highlight just because it's a multi purpose products, you can use this on your cheeks and eyes, and it's amazing! A great highlight. - £32.50 (Link)

My last product is a hair item, this is the Herbal Essences Hello Hydration shampoo and conditioner. I have use Herbal Essences for a long time, but forget about it. Recently I have been using this again because it's getting hotter and I feel like my hair is getting dryer, but not anymore because I am using a wonder products. I would reccomend this for every hair type, I would use this more in my hotter months. I love it so much for moisturising my hair I am taking this to Turkey with me!I also forgot to mention that this smells, amazing! This is summer in a bottle, and for your hair to smell like summer is a plus. - £3.99(Link)

Spring Makeup Look

Hello everyone,

Once again I was wondering what I can do and I though of My Spring Makeup favorites/routine. Also this is my opinion and you can mix and change things up to make it your own individual look. I hope this is helpful...

 Base 

In Spring I love a medium coverage base and then save the dewy and light coverage for Summer. My favourite foundation at the moment is the Mac Studio Fix Fluid in NC15, this also has SPF 15 so if it is sunny one day you will be protected. Contour and bronzing your face is a must for any season, I like the Bourjois bronzing powder in shad 51, I use this very lightly because it can look quite orange for pale skin. For a blush I love using Mac sheer tone blush in Pinch o' peach, I love this in the spring and summer it's a great sheer and matte baby pink blush. Because the Mac Blusher is matte I love using the Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick in Pink Quartz, I only love this highlight with matte blushers because it looks stunning the colour really complement the matte blush.

Eyes and Lips

In spring I wear a bit more colour on my eyes but still keeping it natural, and I love the NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil in Yogurt, this is an amazing over the lid colour, inner corner highlight or on the water line. It looks amazing because it's a shimmery gold, a must for Spring. For mascara I have been loving the L'Oreal Mega Volume Collagene 24hr mascara because it lengthens and volumises and it makes your lashes look amazing. I think going stronger on the lashes bring the whole look together. Then for lips I have a nude option which is Mac's Liptstick in  Angel, this is a great nude with pink undertones, but I also think more colour looks great to and I picked the MUA Power Pout in Justify, this is an amazing peach orange.
