I am obsessed with lipstick, which is like most beauty bloggers. So I thought I would start a little mini series on my blog, about my most used lip products for each occasion.
Today I am going to be covering what I wear day to day, whether I am working or I am just having a casual kind of day these are my top picks.
This is going to be a picture heavy post so I apologize now.
These are the 6 which grace my lips most days depending on which bag they are hiding in.
Introducing Lasting Finish by Kate Moss for Rimmel in shade 28, so this year during July I was in Belfast. I thought I had packed a nude day to day lip shade, panicked ran to boots and purchased this little gem. Its not nude it's a sugary pink which is fine by me, it saw me right in my need of a casual lipstick, Hurrah!
I was annoyed with myself when I bought this!! I went into Boots (I am addicted to boots if you couldn't tell!) to purchase a lip product that was a bit more daring, to get me out of my comfort zone! And I walked out with this, I could have kicked my own ass. I went for my generic cutesy pink lipstick generic cutesy pink is my comfort blanket. But saying that I use this everyday at work as it is so moisturising and sheer, meaning I don't need a mirror to reapply. WIN.
There had to be a Mac Lipstick in here somewhere, Crème Cup is my favourite nude/pink lipstick ever! Until I get a gorgeous Chanel maybe. Described by Mac as a blue toned pink, I don't disagree but I think that Snob is a bright blue toned pink, Crème Cup is in my opinion a pastel blue tone pink. Wearable, subtle and classic.
Clinique is a brand to me that doesn't get my ear pricked. I was bought this in a gift set, and doesn't get the use it should. I use it most days just because of it balmy consistency. Mighty Mimosa is a sheer inoffensive shade, I neither love it or hate it. I feel quite meeeeh about it.
I purchased this because I wanted a go to nude, until last month it actually had not been used. Once I slicked it on I wondered why I had not used it!? Its moisturising, its nude and smells awesome. I think because it was not my usual candy pinks it scared me a little (I know I am a serious wimp!!). In the way of nudes it does lean to the pinker side but hey whats new there!?
Last but not least, is my Soap and Glory Sexy Mother Pucker Gloss Stick in Bashful. I used to own the original Sexy Mother Pucker Lip Gloss which tingle your lips......Whatever happened to that!? If anyone knows please update me on this I NEED IT IN MY LIFE. Anyway I don't think this makes my lips look any fuller, but the formulation is so moisturising I don't mind. You can tell by the grotty state of the packaging that this gets a fair good used, so please don't judge lol. This is what I used when on those "I can't be bothered but want to look fairly respectable days"
That's all today then, if you liked the post let me know. Also if anyone is aware that the original Soap and Glory Sexy Mother Pucker Lipgloss is still available drop me a comment!!
I have been working super long hours this week, as well as training in London, a close friends funeral, and continuing study at university. So have not had a brilliant time, during which I have not seen Chris for more than an hour.
Chris took it upon himself to pick me up a few bits and as the title explains: The Boy Did Good.
He has bought me a makeup bag from Zoella's beauty line, Chris knows how much I love Guinea Pigs and animals for that matter. The bag is big enough to put all my cosmetics and more in. I am a very happy bunny.
While getting me the cutesy cosmetics bag, he noticed that customers had also bought this Urban Decay Makeup Setting Spray because it had some good reviews.
He went to Mac.......MAC! He has never ever gone into Mac unless being caveman dragged by yours truly, so he went replaced my MSF in Medium Deep which I use for my bronzer.
So the boy did good, happy with my little treats he is such a cutey.
I am writing this and it looks where I live is about to have a huge downpour, so where's better to blog than from my comfy living room!?
So maybe this is a little bit late for my September favourites, my most used products etc. You guys are not new to "Favourites Posts" so I do not need to go to much into it.
*Warning! Picture Heavy* *Sorry*
So first up are this six gorgeous products which have saved my face and hair during September.
I know this lipstick may look a little used and maybe a little gross......But its one of my most favoured lipsticks, Its bright enough to make me look primped and chic, but subtle enough to make me look I haven't tried to hard. It last for approx. 3 - 4 hours on the lips without being too drying.
I love you Snob!! I have pretty much used this every work day this month and have been complimented while wearing it.
I have commented on Benefits Oxygen Wow Foundation before, but I have worn this everyday and I mean EVERYDAY! Its like a second skin I am in love. As well as Oxygen Wow I haven't been able to stop using Benefits Gimme Brow.......I have defined eyebrows, you do not understand how happy I am about this......like ecstatic eeek.
This is a hair tie and I am excited about a hair tie. These are awesome, keeps my hair in place for a full 13 hour shift no having to re-adjust. Doesn't give me a headache because of tying my hair too tight. Not much more I can say really.
Uniq One All in One Hair Treatment is next, this allows me to put a brush through my hair when its wet, if I did not use this it would take me 5-8 minutes to brush it through (I have timed this I am science geek need I say more!!) and some serious pain with some choice words thrown in. Smells like coconuts and transports me to an exotic tropical island.
Last but not least, two nail colours which have made me feel Christmassy, if that's even a word. The gorgeous wine red is aptly name Bordeaux which I picked up in the Ravishingly Rouge Essie Duo, Which I have been pairing with the festive golden Beyond Cozy.....What a duo nearly as great as Meredith Grey and Christina Yang in Grey's Anatomy (sorry I am addicted).
Before I finish I just wanted to say Thank You to all my new followers on BlogLovin, hope you all have enjoyed reading.
