I'm taking a little break from eye posts and thought I'd do a quick little post on my Top 5 favourite lipstick brands. There is a mixture of drugstore and high end brands here, and you may guess what they are already since I use them in makeup tutorials more than any other lipstick in my collection.
Bare Minerals
My favourite shade is Live Large,which is a deep plum shade. Gorgeous for the Winter!
L'Oreal
I really love the new Reds collection, although I haven't bought any yet. May save this one for Christmas, since I do tend to get some L'Oreal for Christmas.
MAC
There is such a wide variety of finishes and shades, there will be something for everyone. I do prefer the Satin and Amplified finishes over Creme sheen (which I don't have any of). I just think they last longer and feel better on the lips.
For Winter, if you want to wear a darker shade, but still like your bright pinks; Girl About the Town in a perfect in between shade.
Benefit
I just adore the packaging- the cream tubes are just so different to anything else and the stand out against all the custom black tubes from over brands. They are just so beautiful.
Please, Benefit, develop more shades!
Before the final brand..... here are some honourable mentions....
So here are my honourable mentions:
- Maybelline
- YSL
- Bobbi Brown
- Estee Lauder
- Rimmel
- Body Shop
No. 7
Since the revamp though, No. 7 have entered the market for having some of the most beautiful lipsticks out there. My original three matched lipsticks have steadily grown to seven. They are just so pigmented and so creamy; even the Stay Perfect matte collection has grown on me. They still don't last that long, but I love the shades.
I would definitely recommend you guys get colour matched for this service. You will not regret it, although your bank account might!
Bye for now!
