Hello!
With Valentines Day fast
approaching, I thought I would share a ' Valentines look' for you all. You
don't need Valentines Day as an excuse to rock this, but hopefully it could
inspire those who are in bit of a rut and want to try out a different look.
My main focus was my
lips, and I just added a slick of eyeliner to really finish the look.
Only
fellow make up junkies will understand when we start talking about finding '
The right shade of red'. Finding a lip colour that is long lasting proved to be
difficult, however, after much (too much) testing and swatching, I now have my
holy grail of Lip products that I will just continue to re-purchase.
Hope you
enjoy this post!
Firstly. If you've read
my blog, then you know I'm a fan of the ' Sleek' range. I love their eye
shadows and contour kits, and my love didn't stop there, because my new
obsession is their ' Pout Paints'. ( Swatch 2)
I have purchased every
colour, but for the sake of this post, I have just shown the colour ' Pin Up'
There is alot of product packed into this little tube. I do warn...Tread with caution, because you may scoff at these little tubes, but with this product, less is more! You only need the smallest amount to achieve the look you want.
The pout paint to me
does everything I want- it gives me a red gloss that lasts! It's a bright red
that’s perfect for an evening look, a night out or a bridal look. A staple in
my make up case!
Next is the Ben Nye lip
palette. I love this palette and it’s so handy for mixing colours to get a
desired look. It comes with a lip brush, which does the job. I took this
palette on Holiday with me, to see if the colour would last through the Indian
heat and it did not fail me. I wore this for 4 hours without having to
re-apply! ( Swatch 3)
Last but not least is my
Tom Ford lip lippie in 10 ' Cherry Lush'. I always have this with me,
because its one of my creamiest lipsticks and the colour is like no other lipstick.
It's has a very subtle orange undertone, which gives it that pop. I usually
need to re-apply this after 3/4 hours if that, so to me it’s a keeper! ( Swatch 1)
I hope you all enjoyed
this post and have a great Valentines Day!
