Matte Revolution in Glastonberry

Matte Revolution in Glastonberry

It could be said that I am a bit of a Charlotte Tilbury fan...but that would be a fantastically large understatement. I am obsessed, obsessed and in love. Her new collection of 'Matte Revolution' Lipsticks are the perfect balance of moisturising and matte, leaving you with a plump, perfect pout, with no cracking in sight. Ideal.

Rihanna for Viva Glam

Viva Glam Packaging

With all of the selling price going towards helping Men, Women and Children who are suffering with HIV/AIDS, this concept by MAC not only looks good, but it does a lot of good too. This time, (no doubt influenced by her extremely popular sell-out collaborations with MAC just recently), the Viva Glam campaign is fronted by the effervescent sensation that is Rihanna.

I was a huge fan of the RiRi for M.A.C collection prior to this, so I couldn't resist picking up a few bits (mainly because of the AMAZING packaging). I decided on another RiRi Woo, (I adore this retro matte shade, a favourite from her first collection), Who's that Chick Lipstick and RiRi Woo Lip Liner.

Woo for the Win, a Liner of Gods

I adore this liner, it is so creamy and easy to apply, as well as being the perfect blue red shade of RiRi Woo, which is extremely wearable and very flattering.

The above looks demonstrate the easiness of application, making sure that your lipstick not only doesn't bleed and lasts longer, but that it looks flawless too.

As you can see, the combo of the RiRi Woo liner and lipstick, create a flawless beautiful, blue-red lip. Perfect for chilly Autumn days and Fiery Christmas nights.

Who's that Chick is a frosty Orange. It just sizzles and shimmers in a flattering red-orange, which compliments a tan and darker skin tones beautifully. For a really dramatic look, you can actually do as Rihanna herself and line your lips with RiRi Woo before application, for a modern and bold lip. Gorgeous.

The above application is a pretty light one, and with no liner. If you would like to see it heavily applied or as I said above, with the RiRi Woo liner, just pop me a comment and i'll be happy to oblige.

This Autumn (Fall for you American Types...) collection by Rihanna for MAC, is yet another stand out triumph. I don't think this will be the last you hear of this pairing either, so watch this space.

Lots of Love,

A/W Pink Lips with Chanel

Chanel Rouge Allure Lip Colour in 93 'Exaltee'

This is such a perfect lip to work the A/W obsession with Pink. If you don't fancy covering yourself in a pastel Pink oversize cocoon coat, perk up your pout with Pink instead. This gorgeous, cream lip by Chanel Rouge Allure glides on like a dream. It is such an easy pink to wear for most skin tones, and for any occasion. Its sophisticated, yet sexy. I have fallen hard.

You can pick one up yourself from all good Chanel counters, for around £24. It may sound pricey, but it's an undeniable luxury, and the packaging is just irresistible.

Lovely Packaging

This is already an invaluable asset to my Lip collection, and I have a feeling it's going to be my favourite way to warm up my face in the chilly months ahead,

Baby Lips: Part Two

Peach Kiss, Intense Care, Cherry Pie and Mint Fresh Baby Lips

This is the second part of my Baby Lips infatuation. You can see my first post here, reviewing the Blue Intense Care and the gorgeous Pink Punch. I loved them so, so much... I couldn't resist finishing my collection with Peach Kiss, Yellow Intense Care, Cherry Pie and Mint Fresh.

Peach Kiss; as it may sound... is a lovely Peach scented balm, with a subtle peachy colour when applied to the lips.

The Yellow Intense Care balm, is very similar to the Blue Intense Care, bar the packaging. I don't think you can have too many super hydrating, SPF 20 miracle working balms making an appearance in your handbags, so the more the merrier when it comes to these care oozing lip BFFs.

Intense Care

Mint Fresh, is a... well it's a super minty fresh lip balm. Not forgetting that all of these balms not only, feel/smell/look amazing, but they all really hydrate your pout, which is so important as the chilly months start creeping up on us. Heating and harsh winds, a sexy pout do not make. Enter - the Baby Lips.

Last, but most definitely not least is the irresistible Cherry Pie. It looks as tasty as it sounds, and gives you a gorgeous subtle red hue to boot. Amazing. Perfect for a sexy, seasonal day lip, whilst maintaing a soft and gorgeous pout for the all important Mistletoe in a few months time. Well, it's never to early to be prepared...

As you can probably tell from my constant raving, I love these balms. The packaging, the colours and most importantly the product itself. It works and looks fabulous, what more could you want?

Kisses and Love,

Maybelline Baby Lips in Hydrate and Pink Punch

Baby Lips were a huge deal when they crossed seas recently and landed on British soil, fresh from the USA. These nourishing lip balms add a pop of colour, care and altogether gorgeousness to your pout, and so worth the wait.

The two colours I decided to try, were the au natural 'Hydrate' which is clear, and pretty much scent free, but is super hydrating and with an SPF of 20, it's perfect for Autumn/Winter chill and Sun. The other, 'Pink Punch' is a super svelte pop of pink, which adds that coveted moisture and a super cute pink lip, which is a lovely balance between sheer and opaque.

I absolutely love, love...LOVE these! They definitely live up to the hype and I am going to buy the rest of the colours next week! Just an amazing way to love your lips this A/W,

Really Ruby Lipstick

Topshop's Really Ruby

How many Red lipsticks do you need?... I think that's a pretty unanswerable question, because 'Red' can be a lot more than you think. Case in point - Really Ruby by Topshop. This is a Raspberry lip colour, with a Blue undertone (fantastic for making teeth look super white), and perfect for the encroaching Autumn/Winter season. As much as I love an Orange, or 'Fire-Engine' Red, I have been searching for quite some time for a blue based, Raspberry lip... an everyday RiRi (or Ruby) Woo if you will. And I think I may have found it....

Kissable Raspberry

On the Lip

If you're a fan of M.A.C's Ruby Woo (or Rhianna's very similar RiRi Woo for M.A.C), this is the perfect everyday, cheaper sister. At around £8 it's great value for money and provides and very luscious, similar colour with a slightly more of a cream (as opposed to matte) finish. It glides on very easily and lasts for ages! An absolute bargain and  the perfect way to heat up your lips as it gets colder.

Lots of Love,
