Boujois Rouge Edition 10

So today I've tried out my new lipstick. It's a really creamy feel on, the colour is really vivid and it's lasted really well this morning. It doesn't feel too heavy on either which is really nice, some red lipsticks go bobbly when you top it up but this one hasn't which is a win in my books! Would totally recommend this colour! Only downside is I thought it would be a little more orange coloured but I do love the colour!

Revlon& Boujois Reviews.

The 3 for 2 poster at boots dragged me in today, I have a serious makeup buying problem and the thought of getting some free just made it worse! I try to justify buying too much makeup on the fact that I'm a blogger and I share new things with you lovely readers! Not convinced? Yeah me either! But the offer did give me a chance to finally buy the Revlon ColourBust Balm I've been umming and ahhing over for a while! So I bought Revlon ColourBurst Matte Balm in 205, Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain in 040 and Bourjois Rouge Edition in 10. 

 Revlon ColourBurst Matte Balm in 205 £7.99

The first thing I thought when I took the lid off this was ahh minty, its scented and I love that! On the lips it doesn't feel too heavy and it gives a lovely matte finish and is very colour true to the packaging. I love the packaging of this too as it texture of the 'stick' is matte, its very handy and easy to apply.

Bourjois Rouge Edition in 10

£7.99

I chose this colour as it was the nicest orange tinged red that I could find and I've never tried Boujouis makeup before so I thought why not? As a swatch I can see the orange tone very well but haven't tried it on properly yet so not sure how it will look on my lips, especially with my pale skin. I like this packaging too although the pink and red colour clash wording lets it down a little.

Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain in 040 

£7.99

This balm is also mint scented, but don't be fooled by the bright orange packaging it really isn't this colour! On the lips it gives a subtle orange tinge that on my lips appears a coral colour. It feels very light weight and nourishing. Packaging again is a great size and design.

You can see by these swatches the different intensities

Lips of the day.

So yesterday I went shopping and bought a new lipstick, it's one of the revlon 'colourburst lip butter' and it's in the colour 'candy apple'. I thought it would be a more vivid red but was really happy with the colour it actually is, it's a quite sheer red and feels so silky on, this is the perfect spring/summer red. 

It looks quite pink on this last photo, but I think that's just the lighting- here's a hand swatch. 

In other news I also bought some fabulous chunky black heels from primark yesterday which I'll post about later and I'm having my hair recoloured today so I'll post about that at some point too!

Howl by Illamasqua.

So recently with my illamasqua order I got a free lipstick in 'Howl' this is a orangey-red colour, its quite a dry lipstick but thats what i would expect from a matte colour. It's very pigmented in colour and lasts a long time. I love a good red lippy, and for me this is a bit different to my usual(normally use MAC-Russian Red) i would say that this is a lighter red as well as being tonally different. I really like this lipstick and will be using it a lot over christmas! Heres some pictures and swatches:
