Hello all! I think
everyone who is interested in makeup, loves lip products. I’m a huge concealer
junkie-I tell everyone that, yet I never really mention that I love lip
products. I guess I kind of assume that it’s a given. I wouldn’t say I’m an
addict, none of my lipsticks look alike (in my opinion) so I don’t think I have
too many either. Nonetheless, and long intro over, I’m doing the Lip Product
Addict Tag today.
I love these videos/posts
because you can tell when something will suit you or not, if someone with the
same sort of coloured skin/face shape as you wears it well. It also gives me an
insight into the formulas of the products. Anyway, let’s get onto the
questions!
1.
Favourite
balm/treatment?
I used to use
balms/chapsticks religiously. Then I saw something that said balms aren’t good
for your lips as what it does, is attempts to trick your lips into thinking
they’re waterproof. I’m not 100% sure how accurate this is, but I picked my two
favourites. Lucas’ Pawpaw Ointment is a cult classic to everyone-my dad even uses
it. I don’t care that much about the taste, but it’s just genuinely a nice
ointment to soften and make you lips moist. My next favourite is Chapstick in Cake
Batter. This moisturizers my lips well and tastes amazing!
2.
Best Eye-catching
red?
This was quite a
hard one for me as I love red lips as much as the next girl! Sometimes, when I don’t
feel like wearing makeup, I’ll just put on some red lips and I’ll know people
will be distracted to not notice anything else. I’m basically a magician. My
favourite red lip is Rimmel Kate Moss in #107. This is a matte shade and is a
deeper red. I adore it, and probably always will.
3.
Best luxury & best
drugstore?
I would be lying if
I said I had a lot of money to buy luxury makeup. I’m sure I will buy some
sometime soon and I’ll justify it in some hideous way, but for now I’ll stick
to drugstore. As my “luxury” I’m counting Limecrime. I have two limecrime
lipsticks and I love them! Centrifuscia is a gorgeous bright pink, and Beautiful
Rocket is a bright orange. The formulation is amazing and the colours come
across so pigmented. For drugstore, I am a huge fan of the Rimmel Kate Moss
lipsticks (in the red tubes, may I just add). The staying power is incredible,
especially for a drugstore range.
4.
Most disappointing?
When I saw this question I was like “damn what’s a bad lip product ???????” I then looked in
my drawer and knew exactly what I would talk about. These were raved about so
much, and I love this brand. Unfortunately these didn’t work for me in the
slightest. They’re the Australis Velourlips. These were so drying and clumpy.
They’re supposed to be matte, but that doesn’t mean they can’t be creamy am I right?
5.
Liner-yes or no?
Yes! I use liner
mostly for underneath lipsticks, which is why they’re all nude colours. The
essence liners are amazing, especially on their own!
6.
Something extra?
My current favourite
nude is the Model’s Prefer Nude lipstick in Bare. This year I will hopefully
get more into nude lip colours. I think they really class up a look.
Well that’s it! I might do
an updated one of these in a year or more, if it changes.
Have a good day/night! x
