Favourite Lip Products | Summer 2016

Hey lovelies! Today, I will be sharing with you my current favourite lip products!

NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream in Prague

Firstly, the NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream in Prague was a recent purchase, but it is an amazing product. I saw the product in a YouTube video and really wanted to try it out. It is a gorgeous colour that complements my brown hair and olive skin very well and stays on all day even if you have food or drink. It also leaves your lips feeling very soft and smooth which is a bonus. I was worried that it was too much of a berry tone to wear in the summer, but it actually goes with a few summer outfits I've been wearing. Overall, I really recommend trying out this NYX products or any of the other products in the range.

Revlon Ultra HD Matte Lipcolor in Devotion

Next is the Revlon Ultra HD Matter Lipcolor in Devotion. I've mentioned this product before because ever since the range as come out, this product has been a holy grail for me. It is another product that stays on your lips all day and is nourishing as well. The matteness of the product does not dry your lips out or anything like that. The shade is very summery to me as it is a coral shade. It always makes my lips stand out and look fuller than they actually are. Overall, I recommend this product since it is inexpensive and is an amazing product.

Revlon Lasting Finish Lipsticks in 17 (Kate Moss Collection), 038 In Vogue, 111 Kiss of Life (Kate Moss Collection)

The next few products are three of my favourite Revlon Lasting Finish Lipsticks. The first one is in the shade 17 from the Kate range and I've also mentioned it lots of times before. It is the perfect pink shade as it is not too nude or too pink. It complements every skin tone and is a great lipstick. The next one is 038 In Vogue which is a bright pink shade. This lipstick is a staple to have because it is just a standard bright pink which I think goes along with everyone's looks. It is also just a good shade to have as it is very classy and chic I find. The last one is 111 Kiss of Life by Kate which is a standard red shade. This lipstick is not too pink or dark, but it is just a stable red lip shade which is another basic lip product to have in your collection. Overall, these Revlon lipsticks are long-wearing and come in standard lip stick shades that I think are necessary for a basic makeup collection.

Nars Larger than Life Lip Gloss in 1338 Paris Follies

The last product is the Nars Larger than Life Lip Gloss in 1338 Paris Follies which was in my Shishedo and Nars Haul. This product is very hydrating to the lips and is long-wearing as well. Most of the products I have chosen for my favourites are long-lasting because it is important in the summer when you are by the pool, at a water park, or just eating good food to have a lip product that will stay on all day. This particular lip gloss goes along nicely with a few of the other products on this list and makes the lips look plumb. It is not too glossy, but instead, has the right amount of sheen to add to your lip look. It also is not sticky so that if it is windy, the lip gloss will not get in your hair. Overall, this product is the perfect lip gloss to have and it compliments many lip looks.

I hope you all enjoyed and that this helped!

Makeup Essentials: Reviews

Hey fashionistas! Many of you liked my last post about what was in my bag so here are some of my essentials that are usually in my everyday makeup bag.

SmashBox Camera Ready BB Cream

This is my current favorite BB cream! This product has great coverage without being too cakey or heavy. It is smooth to blend out and apply multiple times throughout the day. The only downside to this product is that it is a little pricy and usually hard to find as it is a very popular product.

NYX Xtreme Lip Cream in Nude Peach Fuzz

I use this lip product every day and it is almost always in my purse or makeup bag. I use it either over my lipstick or just alone, but it is a gorgeous daytime colour and a creamy formula. This product can be found at most drugstores and is very inexpensive. However, if your lips are dry/cracked, it does not moisturize them, but instead it enhances them. This can be good for some people, but for others who want to cover their dry lips, it does not work out as well. I would recommend using a lip balm before using this product for better application.

Urban Decay Eyeshadow in Sin

This product is my favorite highlight colour for my eyes. It is a shimmer shadow that has a pinky tint that just looks very romantic on the eyes, especially when it hits the light. It is extremely pigmented, but easily bendable. This is sold individually, but is also in the very popular Naked palette. The only downside to this is it is pretty expensive either way you get it and there are a few drugstore alternatives (they are just not as good).

Maybelline Lashsentational Mascara

I have mentioned this product various times on my YouTube channel or blog because I love it so much. I usually am a sucker for Maybelline mascaras because they are the best drugstore mascaras in my opinion. This product elongates the lashes and add volume and the brush curls the lashes. However, it can be flakey with prolonged wear.

Rimmel Scandaleyes Eye Shadow Stick in 002 Bulletproof Beige

One of my favourite ways to quickly do an eye shadow look (that looks like I actually had enough time in the morning) are shadowsticks. I have found many in the past, but this Rimmel one is amazing. I like it the best because it has a thick diameter which covers more space at once and it very pigmented. This base also lasts throughout the day. I use this colour the most because it is a light, goldy-bronze shade which complements my green eyes. I definitely recommend this product if you want to wear eye shadow, but never have enough time.

Maybelline Color Tattoo Metal in 70 Barely Branded

This is another Maybelline product I always mention. Maybelline’s Color Tattoo line is my absolute favourite way to prime my eyes or use as a base. The product stays on all day (can even be hard to take off at night) and is completely waterproof. It is a good inexpensive alternative to primers such as the Urban Decay Primer Potion or the Too Faced Shadow Insurance Primer. If you want to wear it just as an eyeshadow and not as a base, it has great cover payoff no matter the colour. Currently, I use “Barely Branded” on a daily basis because it is a white, neutral, shimmery cream shadow, but I also use “Bad to the Bronze” for night looks as it is more bronzy and sultry.

Chloe Eau de Parfum Roller Ball Perfume

Recently, I have been into roller ball perfumes because they are so much easier to carry around and reapply throughout the day. I found this one at Sephora through recommendation as it is one of their popular scents and it is absolutely amazing. It has a sophisticated scent which is also feminine and slightly strong. I find that this product I can still smell at the end of the day especially when I apply it to my jaw and neck. The negatives of this product is that it is pricy and is a pretty strong scent so I do not recommend it for people that are not good with powerful scents. I hope you enjoyed this review and that it helped you out with your beauty essentials! xx
