Current Loves | Lip Products

               Hiya!
So this may sound silly but since leaving school and working a tonne I've been experimenting with my makeup on an everyday basis a lot more, especially my lip colour. While in school I wore very little makeup and only really played it up on the weekends. Recently I've fallen back in love with switching up my makeup and trying some new things. These are a few of the lip products I've been loving during the past few weeks that are a little different to the pale pinks I tend to go for. 
First off lip liners as a whole are a massive fav-they have amazing wear and such a gorgeous finish.
This Rimmel London Exaggerate a Full Colour liner in 063 Eastend snob is a 'my lips but better' type of colour which is great for days when my eye makeup is slightly heavier but I still want something on my lips. Also you don't have to worry about sharpening this.. #lazy
Next is Rimmel London's lasting finish 1000 Kisses loner in 063 Black Tulip which is getting me super excited for fall. It's quite a vampy red but still pretty wearable, reminds me a lot of MAC's Diva lipstick. This stays on incredibly well which is perfect since it is a darker colour. 
Staying with Rimmel I picked up this lipstick about a week ago but already love it. It's Rimmel London's Lasting Finish in 084 Amethyst Shimmer which I feel is a great bright pinky/purple colour for the fall time. It also has a lovely sheen finish to it.
I've also rediscovered my UD Naked lipgloss in Beso, which I was obsessed with when I first bought but kinda forgot about. It's perfect to just through on without a mirror after eating or drinking. Also if you really dislike sticky lipglosses you seriously must check these out, so perfect
Finally an old lipstick I got a while back but never went all out and wore it super opaque on my lips is Barry M lipstick in 146. Recently though I wore this quite a few times just like it's shown in the picture and absolutely loved it. I wish if rediscovered it sooner so I could've got more wear out of it during the summer! It has incredible colour payoff and lasting power! 

So they're the lip products I've been loving recently!
What have your fav lip products been recently?
Hope you guys enjoyed!

Favourite Fall Lipsticks

               Hiya!
As you can see from my previous blog posts I am excited for autumn far too early especially since the weather in Northern Ireland has been surprising nice recently so I haven't been able to bring out my autumn clothes yet.. But today I thought I'd let you guys know what my favourite lip colours are to wear from my collection in the fall time.
My first choice was, of course, a red lipstick. A colour every girl must own and a staple for autumn/winter. Mine is Avon’s Ultra Colour Rich Mega Impact Lipstick in the colour Really Rosy. It is a beautiful slightly dark red colour, with a little bit of shimmer. It also is slightly glossy so you need to wear a gloss over the top!
The next colour is another Avon lipstick but unfortunately this range of lipsticks have been discontinued but I had to include it! The colour is Mauviest, it’s a mauve colour (obviously) but has a little bit of pink in it. It’s a cream kind of finish which I like as I wear this lipstick very casually.
 
My favourite lipstick probably out of my whole collection is Rimmel London’s Moisture Renew Lipstick in Vintage Pink. This is very similar to the previous colour only this is more purple toned rather than pink. These feel great on your lips and have a similar finish to the last lipstick also.
One of my lighter coloured lipsticks for autumn that I like to wear is MAC’s Matte finish lipstick in Please Me. It’s a beautiful medium pink colour which looks great matte or with a gloss over the top.
 
Finally this is a colour that I have recently fallen in love with! It is a Revlon Crème Gloss in Fiercely Fushsia, its stay put all day without fail but it does feel a little sticky on the lips but personally I don’t really mind that! I still haven’t found the confidence to wear it super bright but I’ve been applying a little onto the middle of my lips then blending it.
 
What are your favourite fall lipsticks?
Hope you guys enjoyed this post!
