❁ Current Favourite Lipsticks ❁

"Give a women the right lipstick and she can conquer the world"

I haven't always been a massive fan of lipsticks, I was more of a lip balm kind of girl, however over the past few years, and I have come to love them! 


Left to Right -

Estee Lauder - Lilac Lover - This is one of my favourite lipsticks, the colour is perfect for everyday, however I try to save it more for special events, as it is more on the expensive side at £22, but the formula is amazing, it help keeps the lips mosturised and the colour stays to the lip for a long time.

No.7 Moisture Drench - Mulberry - This lipstick has amazing pigment, I wear this lipstick when I wear more of a darker makeup look, and the lipstick is more matte than a normal lipstick however it doesn't make your lips dry at all. It has amazing staying power lasting all day even when eating and drinking. 

Kate Moss Matte Lipstick - 110 - This is a bright matte lipstick, I don't normally wear bold lipsticks like this however on nights out or on more summer/spring days I like a more bright lip, sometimes for a more sutle lip, I would use my finger to apply the lipstick for a lighter colour on the lips. The only problem with this lipstick is I find that it does dry out the lips, so I do wear a lipbalm under which does take away the matte a bit, but it makes the colour look better on the lips with a bit of lip balm. 

M.A.C - Peach Blossom - This is another one which I wear daily, it's a very simple colour which makes it perfect for everyday, creating a simple look. It's a very moisturising lipstick, I find it does last a long time if you don't eat or drink, otherwise you have to keep applying it.

Avon - Oxford Wine - This is a deep berry colour, this is more of an autumn colour, however I love to wear this colour on nights out or more bold makeup looks, I am not normally one for dark colours, however this colour is really easy to wear. It also has amazing staying power and lasts you day/night, even if you drink and eat, its only fades a bit.




What are your current favourite lipsticks?

♡ Barry M Nail Polish Collection ♡


So I don't know about you, but first thing I do when I walk into boots or Superdrug is head straight to the Barry M section and look at their Nail Polishes, they have endless colours and the just scream 'buy me, buy me!' can't say no can I? 


 Out of the range of different nail polishes BarryM I have, I find that the nail paint isn't my favourite, as I find you need more coats and it takes longer to dry, but when I have time to pain my nails, I love the colours


If you can't tell, then the Gelly Hi-Shine Nail polishes are my favourite from BarryM, I love the range of different colours they have and the finish to the polish is amazing, and they have a lovely shine, these are my go to nail polishes, you also don't need many coats, on the brighter colours a lot of time one coat is enough!


These three nail polishes I tend to wear more for nice occasions, I Really like the Matte colour in the winter, the other too I find I wear a lot more in the summer!  

Overall Barry M nail polishes have a long wear, don't tend to chip easily, for around £3.99 they are amazing! 

Thank you for reading!
