Hi everyone!

 

Welcome to the second post in my top 10 series. Today I am going to share my current favourite lip products with you. As someone who loves lipstick and has way too many, it was really hard to chose only 10!

June Favourites 2016

Hi Everyone,

 

Today I will be sharing my favourite products from the month of June with you. Some are new products that I have discovered over the last month and some are golden oldies! So let's get started!

November 2015 Favourites

Hi Everyone!

I haven't done a favourites post in a long time so I decided it'd be fun to do one today! I've tried a few new things over the last month, mainly lip products, so here are my stand out items!

Beauty Blender: I have owned my Beauty Blender for quite a while now but I've just recently gotten in to using it every time I apply my foundation! Nothing blends product into the skin like this little sponge!


La Roche-Posay Effaclar Duo: This is stuff is AMAZING! I have recommended it to so many people! It does an excellent job of clearing up your skin. I apply it once a day after cleansing my skin and before moisturiser.


Make up Geek Eyeshadows: These are a relatively new discovery for me and I love them! Especially Peach Smoothie, Crème Brule and Cocoa Bear. They are so pigmented and apply like a dream! I'm planning on doing a swatch post soon!


MAC Tan Pigment: This is my favourite MAC pigment and has been for a very long time now! Its a stunning rosy- tan colour and works wonderfully when paired with the three Make up Geek eyshadows above!


MAC Soar Lip Pencil & Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Lip Cheat: I have really been loving a rosy-nude lip recently and these two lip pencils are the perfect accompaniment to lipsticks such as MAC's Whirl, Brave and Velvet Teddy.

L'Oreal Miss Manga Mascara: This is a mascara that I've has several tubes of and I just keep coming back to it! It's quite simply brilliant!


Becca Skin Perfector in Moonstone & Anastasia Beverly Hills Contour Powder in Fawn: We all love to highlight and contour our faces nowadays and these are the best two products on the market for that job in my opinion!


MAC Lipsticks in Brave & Mehr and Charlotte Tilbury Lipstick in Stoned Rose: As I previously mentioned I have been trying out some new lipsticks recently and these three are my pick of the crop!


OPI 'Just Lanai-ing Around Nail Polish: I've been all about rosy colours over the past couple of months so this colour suits me down to the ground! It's a gorgeous dark, creamy mauve shade that's so flattering to wear!


Tom Ford Velvet Orchid: This perfume is incredible and perfect for this time of year! It's quite a heavy fragrance but I love it! It's worth the heavy price tag in my opinion, if only for the staying power!


I hope that you enjoyed reading about my current favourite products. Please feel free to share some of your below!

Charlotte Tilbury Golden Goddess Lip Kit - Review & Swatches

Hi everyone!

I love Charlotte Tilbury! The products, the packaging, the lady herself, maybe not the price, but you get my drift! I have a few of her eye palettes but I decided I wanted to give one of the lipsticks a go! I'd had my eye on Stoned Rose for a while now and got suckered in to buying the 'Golden Goddess' Lip Kit by the lovely artist at the Trafford Centre! All three products are available to purchase separately, however Charlotte herself recommends that the three are worn together! Who am I to argue with that?!

The kit contains the following:

Stoned Rose Lipstick: A warm, nude rose colour. This lipstick is beautiful. It applied smoothly and evenly and has a slightly glossy finish. The colour is really flattering and would suit a range of skin tones. The packaging is stunning too! The lipstick costs £23 when purchased alone.

 

Pillow Talk Lip Cheat Lip Pencil: This is a pinky-nude lip liner and I love it! It is close to the natural lip colour so would suit a lot of different lipsticks. It applies smoothly and evenly and isn't too drying. The pencil is priced at £16.

 

Ibiza Nights Lip Lustre: This is a sheer, sparkly champagne colour. I'm not a massive fan of lip gloss if I'm honest but this is really nice! It's a pretty universal shade and would look nice paired with a wide range of lipsticks. Its priced at £16.50 which is expensive!

(L to R) Pillow Talk, Stoned Rose, Ibiza Nights, Ibiza Nights over Stoned Rose

(Swatched on MAC NW20 skin for reference).

This set is gorgeous and there is no doubt that the three products work beautifully together. However, I would probably give the lip gloss a miss, it is nice but there are other glosses on the market which are more affordable and would give a similar effect! The lip pencil and lipstick do get a big thumbs up from me though!

You can purchase this set for £49 and the each of the products individually from Charlotte Tilbury
