I never want to hear someone say to me "there's no way you wear ALL of that makeup" so what I do is a regular rotation of products so that I am re using things again and again and they aren't just sitting in my drawer for months. My lipsticks are no different. I wear a different one every day and sometimes, just sometimes I find myself sitting there swatching them all over my arms picking new ones to wear. Silly? Maybe....
But that's what my blog is for! To share with you why I love them all instead of talking to myself! Haha.
Here they are! Hope you enjoy reading.
1. NYX Butter Gloss - Tiramisu
Love, love, love. I have said it before, the best glosses I've had so far. They aren't too thick or sticky. They have a lovely sweet scent and come in a variety of colours. The colour Tiramisu is a stunning natural brown colour with a slight hint of pink. This can be worn alone or on top of a lipstick, either way a definite favourite of mine and I'm excited to build up my collection of these. At around $10, I highly recommend.
2. Too Faced Melted Nude
I am a big fan of Too faced products in general, everything I have tried has been high quality. I own 3 of these melted lipsticks and love them all. I like the way they apply evenly and easily with the sponge tip applicator and they don't wear off patchy. They are not a gloss, but not matte either. They are glossy to begin with and then dry down a bit to a more matte finish, but not completely. The only thing I can pick on with this product is the lasting power. If you don't eat or drink, they last a lot longer. If you do, you will only get a few hours out of these and will need to reapply. This particular colour is a beige type colour with a peachy shade to it which I find goes with most types of eye looks. Overall, I love this colour and wear it often, both alone and mixed with other colours. They are around $28 in Australia.
3. LA Girl Glazed Lip Paint - Whisper
Love this brand, love this colour!! Whisper is a very unique beautiful shade of nude. It's very pale, and probably wouldn't suit all skin tones but could easily be mixed with another colour. I'm a fan of mixing colours! I love to wear this alone though, with only a lip liner to help define my lips. The formulation is amazing and I love the scent. I have done a separate review on these if you'd like to read it. :)
4. Rimmel Apocalips - Nude Eclipse
I have back ups of this one, that's how much I love it. It's my perfect nude colour, especially with a dark eye look. There needs to be colour on the rest of your face with this one, to save you looking dead. It's a pale beige nude,with just the slightest hint of pink. The applicator is doe foot, which make application easy if you don't want to wear a lip liner, but it's easy to apply too much so be careful! They smell a little funny but not offputting. If you haven't tried an Apocalips, I recommend them.
5. NYX Black Label Lipstick - Nude
Great lipstick, it's very moisturising and creamy. This one is a light peachy toned colour, again great with a smokey eye. It doesn't have amazing lasting power, but for the price, it's worth it for the colour.
This is around the $7 -$9 mark.
Here are some swatches in order 1 - 5, left to right :)
Thanks for reading!
