A touch of pink....

No I am not going to review a lacoste perfume, but I am simply commenting on this weeks nail varnish choice. I went with a Barry M polish in Fuschia. Forgive the piccie I took it on my IPhone and modified it with Instagram to make it look more like the real colour. Also I hate my wrinkly hands so I was trying my best to disguise them!

I hope everyone has had a good Monday, today I started my training to get fit but I am going to do a seperate post on that.

Roses are Red, violets are blue.... my lips are pink, yours can be too!!!

Ha, Ha, Ha!!! Such a dodgy title! I am clearly in a weird mood today!

Anyway I thought I would just do a quick blog on a couple of Rimmel London, lasting finish lipsticks that I picked up in boots last week. I have to admit I have never really been big on lipsticks as I have very pigmented lips and have never really been too adventurous with the old lippy.


The top pale pink shade is Pink Blush and the bottom bright pink shade is In Vogue. Each lipstick was £4.49 from Boots (purchased with my own money!)

For the last few months I have been on a mission to find a pale pink lipstick that lasts longer than 30mins, doesn't leave a gunky residue on my mouth and is a perfect shade that doesn't give me that walking dead look! I won't say this lipstick is perfect but it is pretty dam good, the finish is slight glossy and it is a very moisturising. It lasts for a good couple of hours before I needed to reapply it, and as it faded it did so consistently so I wasn't left with excess product in the corner of my mouth or a weird pink ring around my mouth!


Errrr facial hair!!! Dam the macro function!

The other shade is a vibrant bright pink, something that is a little out of my comfort zone as I usually go for reds rather than pinks if I feel like a splash of colour across my face. So I wasn't sure how much I was going to like this one!

The product applied really easily and consistently over my lips, it was a bit drying which is what I usually expect with long wear lippies but quite different from the pale pink formula. It most certainly needs to be applied with lip liner applied below to keep in place, as it seemed to go everywhere as I wore it through out the day on the edge of teacups and even on my fingers as I touched my mouth.



I will certainly not be relegating these lipsticks to the never wear again drawer and I might even try purchasing some of the other shades in the range!
