Happy Christmas Eve Everyone!! Hope your all getting festive :)
Other than the one red lipstick I bought in America last year, I don't really 'do' lipsticks. Or at least I didn't used to wear lipsticks - I was always more of a lipgloss/ lipbalm girl! However since blogging and seeing the infamous mac lipsticks on every other blogger - I've become interested and enticed into trying out more lipsticks. These w7 lipsticks are so reasonable at only 75p from fragrance direct! You can afford to experiment with colours at that price, so why not go for *that* colour you would usually be too scared to try! I chose to try Pumpkin Pie* and Apricot Brandy*, not only for their autumnal/winter names but it was a big selling factor!
I was really impressed with the intensity of colour in both of these lipsticks, for 75p I was expecting a very 'wishy washy' colour that lasted no more than 5 minutes. I put Pumpkin Pie on for my work's Christmas party, after reapplying it only once, it still looked fresh on.
The Pumpkin Pie colour is a peachy, shimmery lipstick with pink tones. It didn't really add much colour to my lips but did add a lovely shimmer, which lasts a lot longer than a lipgloss. The Apricot Brandy lipstick has a more neutral tone with a light brown, shimmery colour. I really liked this colour after I had tinted my lips with 2true cheek and lip tint. Both of these lipsticks are perfect for transforming a day time make up look into a night time look quickly!
Do you wear lipstick a lot?
Feel free to leave me a comment :)
