With wearing masks more and more, makeup that we wear seems to be getting less and less. My makeup life however is slightly different! I am still wearing makeup daily for work and wear a mask at select times during the day but not all day. For me, this means that I still need a long lasting lipstick that won't budge from my lips with and without a mask. I fell out of love with liquid lipsticks a while back but now they are my new best friend! p.s they're all nudes of course

5 Everyday Lip Options
Saturday, February 4
Following on from Thursday's post all about my everyday makeup essentials, this post is dedicated to the everyday lip. For me its a nude, mauve, pink toned shade that goes with everything and looks good with anything. It was also unintentional to have posts following one another in such a theme, but it works well so why not! The options in this post are what I have currently been reaching for, as they change I hope to keep you updated!
Autumn is Coming - Lips
Tuesday, October 13
Now for the instalment of Autumn Is Coming that I have been very excited for - LIPS! By far my favourite make-up item out there, I could spend £1 or even 1 million pounds on them - they are just amazing. There are a lot of colours that I love at this time of year, and ones that I am still finding when browsing instagram. But these four are the ones I have been going for these past few weeks making them more of my 'current favourites' rather than all time.
1. (Bottom) Wet 'n' Wild in Cinnamon Spice £2.20 Amazon
This is the berriest shade of the four and it a lipstick that is to die for. I am so thankful for Mollie sending me this in the swap that we did because Wet 'n' Wild lipsticks that amazing, and worth the hyper that surronds them. They are only £2 and are creamy, long lasting and smell glorious. The lipstick glides on to the lips like butter and the semi-matte finish doesn't cake or flake away. I do find some bleeding after a few hours but this is due to no lip liner which is changing from today, as I am on the hunt for a berry lip liner for all these colours.
I spoke about this wonderful lipstick just a few weeks ago in my 2 Seventeen Lip Products You Need To Try post. I love this lipstick because even though it is rich in colour and has a pinky undertone it's slightly glossy, making it easier to wear during the day. It is also very hydrating so perfect for those dry and cold lips.
3. Revlon Lip-Butter in Red Velvet £7.99 Boots
I always thought that Revlon Lip butters were only for the summer time, this is due to the shades I had but infact after a trip to Boots last month I realised I was missing out. This lip butter not only has a name that makes me go hungry every time I use it but its a great colour. This is very red compared to the others, yet not a scary colour as the formula of butters are sheer. This means you can either wear it so that it doesn't really show, or build it up. Similar to the Seventeen lipstick the formula is moisturising and 'buttery' making you want to wear it as often as possible.
4. (Top) Bourjois Rouge Edition Velvet in Frambourjoise £8.99 Superdrug
Finally we have a lipstick that is a completely different colour to the other three, this is a true pink, Don't let pink scare you, or make you think that its only for summer nights because it most definitely isn't. If reds and berrys scare you then going pink is your next option and a formula like the velvet ones are perfect as it lasts all day and feels amazing on the lips. If you mix it with a red lip liner you deepen the colour and make it more autumnal.

Haul| Lip Products
Thursday, May 28
Who doesn't love a good old haul? But this isn't any sort of haul, this is a lip product haul - yes all about those lip products so you addicts out there are about to be excited! A few weeks ago I entered a competition on Instagram to win a few goodies from BeautyStash, I don't want to reveal too much about what I won because it will be a surprise and a post of course very soon! But along with the 'big' prize I was also very kindly gifted with all these goodies...
First things are the essentials of your lip base, a brush to apply the heavy colours and a lip balm to help with those chapped lips. The 17 Lip Brush is the perfect sized brush to use on my odd shaped lips and is really soft to help with precision. Balmi lip balms are something I ALWAYS see when shopping or scrolling on instagram and I am really excited to start using this one, This one is he strawberry scent, so lets hope I don't eat it!
Then we have 3 different Rimmel Products, all three are completely different and right up my street! First up is a Provocalips in Dare to Pink, I will have to do a post on these soon because this is my fourth one and each one just keeps getting better and better despite the other reviews I have read about them - I love them! Then a Oh My Gloss by Rita Ora a really pretty nude lipgloss, perfect for on top and on its own. Then the summer colour of them all a Kate Moss Lipstick a bright pink that is getting me in the mood for the hot weather!
Now, I really have been spoilt by the lovely people over at BeautyStash, not one but two MAC lipsticks!! These are actually two colours that I have had on my wishlist for a while now, the first is Pure Zen and the other is Please Me. Both are right up my street as they are pinky nudes, both shades are also great for the summer as are the rest of them. Will be using these very soon and then talking all about them..
Hope you enjoyed this very different style of haul, and look out for the second part of this giveaway prize very very soon ....
