The True Reds

Hello everyone! 

It's nearly winter and that means getting out my red lipsticks! 

L'oreal Paris came out with a new ''Color Riche Lip'' collection called ''Exclusive Pure Reds'' ft Blake Lively, Julianne Moore, Liya Kebede and Eva Longoria. 

L-R - Liya's color, Blake's color. 

Liya's color has a slight orange undertone and is also a warm red. 

Blake's color has a blue undertone and is a cold red. 

I couldn't decided which will look better on me since I have neutral undertones in my complexion so I bought the two that will look the best with pale skin. 

Turns out because I have neutral undertones in me I can pull off the orange and blue undertones in the lipsticks! Score!  

Liya's color. 

Blake's color. 

I really like these lipsticks, they are semi matte and doesn't dry the lips. Also very pigmented. 10/10! 

You can get them here and they range about £6.99

CHANEL - Rouge Coco Shine

I have bad news...My camera is broken! Forgive me for the awful iphone pictures I will be posting until my camera is fixed.

Anyway today I'm blogging about one of my favorite lipsticks. The Chanel rouge coco shine hydrating sheer lipshine.
Although I only have 2 they are the best lipstick I have ever owned and I have owned a lot of lipsticks!

The shades I have are L-R - ''Boy'' and ''Chance'' which is no discontinued. And I can't believe it because it's my favorite lipstick of all time! 

They are not pigmented but sheer. They also give you an amazing shine to the lips and its very moisturising to wear. 

The only bad thing about them is that they don't last on the lips at all. But that doesn't really bother me as I love the smell of these so I just love reapplying them. 

As you can see from the picture above, they are very glossy and sheer. ''boy'' is such a nice nude everyday colour and ''chance'' is a beautiful pink colour that really goes well with my pale skin.

Loving Nudes

Hi everyone! Currently i've been loving nude lipsticks, lip balms etc! I always thought that nudes would never look good on me since i'm so place but i've been fake tanning it up and so my foundation colour has gone up 2 shades darker...shhh don't tell nobody ;)

Revlon colorburts matte lip balm in complex 

Revlon lip butters in creme brûlée 

MAC Viva Glam 2 Lady gaga *limited edition* 

Rimmel London moisture renew in nude delight 

I just think these are the perfect nudes for me. If i'm not feeling them on me then i'll just wear a pinkish lipgloss over them to give my colour back in my face. 

Have you get any fave nude lipstick? let me know in the comments below!

My favorite nude lipstick! - L'oreal Paris Colour Riche Collection Privée

Hi everyone! 

Hasn't it been long since I last updated?! I've just been so busy with college and other personal things that I haven't got the time to wright a post! I have so much things to review/ tell you guys about so watch this space! ;

Anyway, resonantly L'oreal released a nude lipstick range for every skin colour. This collection is provided by celebrities such as Eva Longoria and Doutzen Kroes. I picked up the Julianne Moore shade is ''Barely peach'' 

As you can see it's not really a peach colour but more of a true pink colour. Which i'm not complaining about because I love pink colour lipsticks! 

I love this packaging! For a drugstore lipstick they made it look really classy and expensive! 10/10 L'oreal! 

Top - Without lipstick

Bottom - With lipstick

It's the perfect shade for me as it's like the colour of my lips but better! 

Pros - Creamy 

Smooth

Lovely packaging

Gives great colour

Cons - Horrible, old ''fashioned'' lipstick smell  

Long very long lasting 

Smudge off easily

Overall - 8/10

TREND - Autumn & Winter 2013 Makeup!

Hi!

Autumn and Winter is upon us! Summer is long and gone! (about time! I love the winter!) 

As I was browsing on different websites I came across this trend for Autumn and Winter!

Its all about the eyes! 

Dramatic eyes, cat-eyes, Orange eyeshadow and The classic for Winter - Red and Wine lips.

The eyes are dramatic. Emphasise your eyes by doing the classic smokey eye look. Cat eyes are a favorite. Personally the cat eyes look is my favorite look on any occasions! 

When having a dramatic eye look do not wear a bright, shocking lips. Go for the nude, pink, peach lips. You don't want your lips to be overpowering your eyes! 

The classic red. Of course. Nothing beats winter than having red lips! This seasons its best to go for a shine or gloss red look rather than a matte. Don't go for the harsh red instead choose a light lipstick/lipgloss for a more subtle look this winter. 

Another trend is the wine/plum lips. The wine lips will look great this season with the dramatic eyes. The wine lips are made for the winter! It's getting dark so the lips get darker! 

Maybelline's master precise liquid eyeliner is a must have for cat eyes look. Easy to use - £5.99

Urban Decay's most popular palette ''Naked'' is a must have. Great colours for a dramatic eye! - £36

Revlon's lip butter in Red velvet give your lips a tint of red while moisturising it - £7.99

For the wine lips try Lancôme color design matte lipstick in Plum Show - $22
