I had wanted to try these lipsticks for a very long time, but I was sceptical as I had heard mixed reviews. Some people love them, some people dislike them. I had also heard that they are very hard to remove, which leads me to believe that the staying power must be there. My current favourite liquid lipsticks are still the JSC Velour ones and nothing else I have tried has topped them yet, a couple of brands have come close though! ABOUT THE PRODUCTS The packaging of the lipsticks is simple, but aesthetically pleasing; I like the blue accent caps. It is made out of plastic and there is something inside the tube to make the formula looked twisted in the tube, which is a nice detail that I haven’t seen before. The applicator is a little pear shaped sponge with a little well in the middle to hold the product. The packaging of the remover is also pretty simple and cute. The container is made of lightweight plastic and you could easily repurpose it once you have used up the wipes. You get 3...

I received this sample for FREE when I purchased two OFRA highlighters from BeautyBay.com. I was lead to believe that it would be a full sized lipstick, but it was a mini sample size that arrived. It does look quite cute, so I am still happy with it. It is the Long Lasting Liquid Lipstick in Bel Air by OFRA and it is mini sample of the full sized lipstick. Bel Air - warm nude with a hint of peach (matte) This lipstick is supposed to have long lasting colour with minimal transfer. It should also be comfortable to wear. It is infused with Vitamin A and antioxidants. It is a beautiful colour and definitely the sort of shade I would wear. It is long lasting and comfortable to wear, but I would suggest that you try to avoid eating and drinking large quantities as it will wear away (especially if oil based). I am looking at purchasing a full sized tube of it, but I need to swatch it against some lipsticks I already own to make sure I don’t have a dupe. I will make do w...

I re-subscribed to the LookFantastic Beauty Box in May and received my first box in June (Staycation Edition). I did enjoy that box so I decided to stay subscribed to see what July’s box (Sunkissed Edition) would have to offer. Last month’s box was a bag and this month we are back to the usual cardboard box. The six items should be worth over £65.00 altogether! Here is what I received:- MÁDARA Regenerating Night Cream | 25ml - £17.00 | This night cream is supposed to work best throughout the night, which is when your skin is best at repairing itself. It is supposed to help stimulate cell renewal, which should reduce fine lines and wrinkles. You should wake-up to brighter, more hydrated and more youthful-looking skin. I am interested in using this. I currently use a basic moisturiser at night, but I have been looking at upgrading to an actual night cream. I hope it is not too thick as I have used a night cream before and I could still feel it on my skin in the morning af...

I tried these lipsticks a while ago and I did recently de-clutter them all (April). I thought I would still share the swatches with you for reference. I only de-cluttered them because I didn’t use them, not because I didn’t like them. Poet (60) - soft beige pink Seductress (65) - dusty beige rose Amazonian (70) - rich caramel brown Fighter (75) - rich gingerbread brown Self-Starter (130) - muted smoky peach Ground-Breaker (117) - dark orange red Lover (15) - dusty rose Ruler (80) - marsala red Voyager (50) - cool toned wine red Heroine (25) - bright scarlet red Creator (35) - bright violet Believer (40) - dark eggplant purple These matte liquid lipsticks are mean’t to be long lasting and stay on for twelve hours. They should also have intense colour pay-off and be non-drying to the lips. The arrow shaped applicator is mean’t to make it easy and more precise to apply the product to your lips. You can purchase them for £9.99 each from Boots,...

Don’t you just hate it when a brand discontinues your favourite product? Well, I certainly do! I thought I would share with you the products I wish weren’t discontinued. I have re-used some of my old photos for the products, I apologise for the quality. Here are the ten discontinued products I could think of so far:-   Avril Lavigne Black Star Eau de Parfum This perfume was launched way back in 2009 and it is still one of my favourites to this day. I haven’t actually smelled anything like it. The notes are; Black Currant, Mango, Pear, Jasmine, Lotus, Hibiscus, Musk, Sandalwood, Vanille and Mexican Chocolate. It was discontinued a few years ago, I’m not exactly sure when. I remember last seeing it for sale around 2013-2015. I don’t know why it was discontinued because it was a stunning fragrance. I used up my last bottle around two years ago and I am so sad it is no longer available. You can still find old bottles of it on eBay but bottles are being advertised for £100.00...

I decided to buy these and give them ago after hearing good things about them online, there is also a great shade selection. My current favourite lipsticks are the Jeffree Star Cosmetics Velour Liquid Lipsticks and I wanted to see how these DOC ones would compare. Old Flame - warm rusty orange Camp Fire - burnt sienna These creamy matte liquid lipsticks are mean’t to be rich in colour, long wearing and dry down to a velvety, comfortable and matte finish. You should exfoliate your lips prior to application and avoid consuming oily/greasy foods once applied. You can purchase them for £18.00 ($18.00) each from DoseofColors.com and BeautyBay.com. They are also cruelty-free and vegan. My First Impressions The packaging is like the Jeffree Star Cosmetics Velour Liquid Lipsticks and the actual formula of the DOC liquid lipsticks kind of reminds me of the JSC ones too. The formula is more of a cream rather than liquid, unlike the JSC’s ones. The formula comes out kind ...

I received my last Glossybox for a while last week, as I cancelled my subscription last month, but you have to give 30 days notice to cancel otherwise you will still be charged for the next month’s box. Here is what I received:- bellápierre Kiss Proof Lip Crème in Nude This liquid lipstick is supposed to be full coverage, creamy, glide onto your lips, dry instantly, matte in finish and last for hours without needing a touch up. This comes across pink in the tube, but it is a nice nude shade. It is creamy, full coverage and glides onto your lips. The only thing I didn’t like is that it feels quite tacky, even after it has supposedly dried. It is tacky enough that your lips get stuck together when you close your mouth; this has put me off trying the other shades. | 3.8g - £20.00 | BYBI Plumper Lip Balm This lip balm should have a thick and creamy formula that plumps, restores and protects your lips, whilst leaving them soft, smooth and healthy. It also contains peppermin...

I thought I would share a haul with you today. I have made several purchases here and there since my last haul, but I thought I would share these items with you today and I purchased them all around the same time. First of all I purchased a few things from FeelUnique.com. I bought the Urban Decay All Nighter Waterproof Setting Powder , Urban Decay De-Slick Complexion Primer , Maybelline Baby Skin Primer and Maybelline SuperStay Matte Ink Liquid Lipsticks in Believer and Heroine . I also received two skincare samples with this order and got my Platinum Member discount off all of the Urban Decay products. I also made a small Jeffree Star Cosmetics order on BeautyBay.com. I purchased two Velour Liquid Lipsticks in Anna Nicole and Leo and Reflective Make-Up Bag in Dark Blue . I also wanted the Pumpkin Pie liquid lipstick from JSC, but it was out of stock. I am also interested in the Flamethrower shade as well, but it is such a bright block orange shade and it kind of sca...
