Lipstick lover!

Hey to whoever may be reading :)  After watching millions of YouTube videos lately, something that has tended to feature rather heavily, is the "favourite lipsticks" style video, which I have undoubtedly been obsessed with watching, as I am a massive lipstick lover.  I wear a mix of high street lipsticks such as Rimmel and Maybelline, thrown in with a few more higher end lipsticks, which I have treated myself to at certain times!  I'm gonna do a list of my favourite high street lipsticks, then the high end ones that I also love, enjoy!

Kate Moss for Rimmel: in shade 01.

My ultimate go to red lipstick, this is THE red lipstick you need on a budget.  I think they cost around £4.50(I think?!), and they are so worth it.  This is the lipstick I wear when I want that classic red lip, as it is highly pigmented, very classic and surprisingly, very wearable for most people!  If you want that classic red lip on a budget, this is the lipstick for you, I also find they are very moisturising.  

Shade 20.

Kate Moss for Rimmel matte range: 107.

These are both my favourite alternative colours for when I want a change from my trusty red lip. The pink shade is, as you can obviously see, incredibly vivid and really makes a statement, whereas the purple, which is from the matte range, is also a very gorgeous colour, probably more suited to somewhere more dressy, and is actually also surprisingly wearable, thumbs up for the Kate Moss lipsticks, they're so fab.





Rimmel "Apocalips" lip laquers.

Another product that has been high on the beauty radar!  I've just realised I've been loving mostly lipsticks by Rimmel, so I praise Rimmel for bringing out some totally brilliant products!  These are great, and as I'm sure you've heard, are extremely popular right now. I own two of these, the red in "Big Bang" and the off duty, muted rose pink in "Celestial" which I, at first was hesitant to try, as I prefer statement lip colours like red, fuchsia pink and purple, but this is a colour I am loving for a daytime, off duty look.  They dry like a lip stain, rather than a tacky gloss, and stay on for a good while. I'm definitely going to be trying more of these!






MUA lipsticks.

A product which is an absolute BARGAIN! These cost the outstanding price of £1, I know right, £1! When I first purchased one of these, in the trusty red of course, I assumed that for the price, they would just be a not very good, to distinctly average product, I was so wrong! These are highly pigmented, last all day, and the colour stays as strong as ever, no fading! I am going to collect most of these, as for a £1, you cannot go wrong, plus I can experiment with colours I'm not that sure of, and for a £1, it doesn't matter!  If you haven't tried one of these lipsticks, I suggest you do so, because for a bargain of £1, they're the best inexpensive lipstick ever!




Soap & Glory matte lipsticks.

Soap & Glory lipsticks, cost around £8, which is not as low costing as some of the other lipsticks I've listed, but these again are so worth it, I'm saying that about everything, but these really are.  They are a matte lipstick, with a powder coat finish, which really makes your lips look amazing, as I think matte lipsticks are so flattering and wearable, they add that pinup/glam edge to your makeup.  I have a fuchsia  pink in this range, and I will definitely be repurchasing more S&G lipsticks, thumbs up!




Revlon lip butters.

I've never spoke about these before, but lately I've been loving them! They're not too pigmented, but leave a lovely colour, as they are a cross between a balm and lipstick, leaving your lips really moisturised and soft! You can get them in lots of different colours, I've got a berry colour, which looks really nice now it's autumn time!  


Onto my favourite higher end lipsticks!


MAC "RiRi woo" lipstick.
This is my FAVOURITE lipstick! This lipstick is part of Rihanna's range for MAC, but it is just a play on of a colour they always stock, being "Ruby woo" instead of "RiRi woo". I'm not a massive fan of Rihanna, but I wanted this lipstick anyway, and it's FABULOUS. If I could only own one lipstick for the rest of my life, this would be it. MAC lipsticks tend to have a sweet scent, which is really lovely, and they literally stay on all day, being highly pigmented and long lasting.  I'm pretty sure Rihanna's MAC collections are limited editions, so if you can't get your hands on this one, "Ruby Woo" is exactly the same shade. They cost £14, which I admit is not exactly cheap, but then £14 isn't THAT bad for a higher end lipstick, definitely worth the money!




Dita Von Teese makeup line for Art Deco.
As a massive fan of the gorgeous Dita Von Teese, her look is AMAZING, she's immaculate.  Dita's known for her glamorous, pinup look, with her statement red lips, so when I received the red lipstick as a gift, I was so happy!  I knew this red lipstick was going to be the best, as it's her signature look, so any product she releases would be reflecting her personal style perfectly.  It's pigmented, stays on hours and if you're a fan of Dita's makeup, her range is perfect for you!



NARS satin lip pencils.
I LOVE these! I love lip crayons, and using this all over your lips really looks amazing.  There's such a wide range of colours to chose from, I love the red, plus the deeper pinks, and I think they are the ultimate treat if you're a lipstick lover! These cost £17.50, so not cheap, but definitely worth it for a treat! There's definitely a colour for everyone.



Well that was probably harder than I thought, especially as I love so many different lipsticks, narrowing it down has been a task!  I'm also keen to own a "Rouge" lipstick by Chanel, as I've heard such rave reviews, and Chanel is the ultimate luxury brand! I love lipsticks, and I'm constantly looking to try more, so let me know what you think! :D
