In the last few weeks I have purchased a few extra little lip treats for myself (because I deserve a treat for no reason) and I wanted to show them to you since I am a little excited about them. Where I live I don't have any Boots shops that stock NYK products, not even the MK store has them! So when I went to Leicester with my boyfriend and friends and noticed they has a NYK counter, well I was quite embarrassing if I do say so myself. I had to leave with something so I picked up the Butter Gloss in shade 15 Angle Food Cake. It is a mauve coloured nude which is my favourite lip colour at the moment as you can tell from my previous post. I love a lip gloss recently and after trying this butter gloss I am excited to get a few more shades.
My next purchase was the Soap and Glory Sexy Mother Pucker Lipgloss (see the theme here?) in Plumsup. I had an old Sexy Mother Pucker lipgloss in my stash that just needed to be thrown away so I re-purchased a new one and I forgot how tingly it made my lips! The sensation is probably the best thing about the product and then there is the plumping of my lips. I don't have small lips anyway but sometimes you do want your lips to be bigger and juicer. Again this shade is my favourite nudey shade which I know I will get a lot of use out of.
Lastly I picked up the Bodyshop Lip and Cheek Stain in Deep Berry 029 as a whim really. I didn't have any in my collection yet and I wanted a shade which I knew would be something I could get a lot of use out of and this dark berry colour is perfect for me. It is very pigmented but a watery consistently like most lip stains, I find that this lasts longer on my lips then the products I have tried years ago. I usually apply a small amount on my lips with the wand and then use my finger to blend it out and cover every inch of my lips. It dries quickly and then lasts for ages on my lips which is why I wanted it, it makes it look like I have permanent rosey lips which only you guys will know is not true.
After getting this set of Revolution Lip Crayons for my birthday I was excited to try them out as Make up Revolution is fast becoming one of my favourite budget brands. These haven't disappointed at all in my eyes.
You get three colours in the set, a nude/orange shade, a red shade and a bright pink shade and all of these crayons don't have any codes on them so I'm sorry if they are hard to find. These crayons apply really easily to the lips and last a good amount of time without going cakey. You don't have to worry about putting too much product on your lips as the colour comes out lightly and you can build it up, which I find better than products that come out too much.
My favourite shade to use is the nude-y orange as it is the most natural of all the shades and looks really nice with bronzed cheeks. Although I got these products as a birthday gift I can imagine that they wont cost that much as the brand is so affordable.
I also have these super cute little lip glosses as another set and I cant wait to use these lip glosses during the summer when I want a pop of colour on my lips.
Here are some of my favourite lip colours for the autumn season, and I know in the photo they all look like the same colour but I promise they are all different! haha
Avon in Chilli
This lipstick is my number favourite of this time of year as it is super moisturising on my lips and never dries them out like other lipsticks, especially when the weather is colder than usual. The shade is really nice dark red that isn't too much during the day time but can also be worn at night on a night out with a full face of makeup. It lasts a good few hours but you might just need to reapply it after you've eaten.
Mua Power pout in Crazy in Love
I love this lip product so so much! It is a great colour unlike anything I had already and although it looks red in the photo it is more of a mix between a purple/maroon/hint of red, the colour is really hard to describe but it looks great on the lips. It has a little shimmer to it that looks subtle on the lips and not like you've dipped your lips in glitter.
Rimmel colour show off in Be Bold
You cant really go wrong with Rimmel lipsticks I think, when it comes to lip products Rimmel are always on form in my opinion, that is why I have two Rimmel lipsticks in this list. This colour show off lipstick is something that I always come back to, its easy to apply and top up and lasts a good amount of time before you need to.
Rimmel Kate moss in 22
This Kate Moss lipstick is a little more subtle then the colour show off lipstick as it isn't so bright and looks a bit more natural on. It is a deep but bright red at the same time and has a slight shimmer to it which isn't too in your face. It lasts as good as any other lip product too.
Revlon colorburst in Wild Watermelon
This lip butter was one of the first lip products I ever bought and I have been in love with it right from the start. The texture of this product is so rich and soothing, you wouldn't need to ever use a lip balm before applying it because It moisturises your lips so much, you have no need too. I wrote a post months and months ago about my four Revlon Lip Butters which you can click on to take a look at. The only downside to the lip butters is that they don't last that long because they are so creamy BUT I will take that for such a good lip product, I don't mind reapplying them often.
During the summer I purchased some highly recommended Lip Butters by Revlon and I fell in love, seriously I have used them so so much since I purchased them. If I couldn't buy another lip product for the rest of my life, I think I'd be alright.
First of all I love the packaging of this lip product, I love that they are more square then circle and the design makes them look more expensive that they actually are. They really aren't expensive at all and I usually get them in Boots 3for2 promotion so that's even better!
I have four colours in the lip butters, the four I think are most wearable. The first colour is called 'Pink Lemonade' (047) and is a lovely pale baby pink colour which looks great if you are wearing a lot of eye make up, it gives your lips a peachy/pink colour and doesn't look too much for a casual make up look. I always go to this product when I don't have anywhere special to go or have dressed really casual that day.
My next colour is call 'Tutti Frutti' (015) and it is a really rich orange colour. I personally have found that I don't really suit this colour, I think the colour is too orange for me, I think I would suit more of a coral shade rather than this bright orange. But it is still a nice shade that would look great during the summer months with bright coloured clothes, maybe it would suit me more when I'm on holiday and I have a tan? Maybe, I won't write it off for me just yet.
My next colour is called 'Sweet Tart' (090) and it is a really rich pink, it is a really wearable pink and looks great with both minimal and bold make up. I found this shade is very much like my Collection 2000 Lasting colour lipstick in shade 'Sweet Tart' (8) but the Revlon Lip Butters are more creamy and moisturising on my lips.
My last shade is definitely my favourite, 'Wild Watermelon' (063). The colour is amazing, a really nice red shade that isn't too bold, doesn't take over your face and suits most skin tones I've found. I love this colour a lot and wear it so often. I definitely prefer wearing this lip butter to any actually red lip stick, and I have a lot red lipsticks in my collection (all different shades of course, I'm not silly)
I would definitely recommend these lip butters so go try them out if your like bright coloured lip products that really moisturise your lips while you wear them :)
