It's nothing new to share, I've been having them for a very long time ago but for the last months, I've been wearing a pinky and bit shiny lipgloss gifted by my grandma and sometimes I applied a red crayon from Avon (which I love as it's not super strong, perfect for summer because it gives a pinky red to your lips) but that was all.
It's fall over here and, since I'm keen on the fashion and beauty world, I've notice that dark lipsticks are perfect for fall and winter and lipglosses and light lipsticks look good for summer (you've descovered America, huh?). So, I rushed into my makeup bag and digged inside it to finally found my darkest lipsticks, I put them over my lips and fell in love immediately. I kinda have some reviews for those, so here we go!
First of all, Silkey Make Up Color High Impact N°08 (from left to right, the red one) I've bought it last winter because I was pretty crazy about red lipsticks and I wanted to start a red lipsticks collection that I've never done. Anyways, I wore it all winter and I was completely happy with the colour it gives to my lips; at first, I was looking for a mate bright red and felt a little disappointed when I applied it and looked darker and more oily than I've expected but, at last, I ended up feeling comfortable with it. I cannot let out the fact it has a lovely rose smell!
Revlon Super Frost Lustrous Lipstick in Cherry Crush 91, I should let you know that I'm a violet-lover and this lipstick is also one of my favourites! It's not a very dark colour but you can notice that you're wearing something violet on your lips. It looks good with a dark eye makeup or something quiet, like a cat eyeline or just a little wing in the outer corner. I may not say that it hydrates or makes your lips softer but I feel it doesn't dry them out and that's a point in favour.
Lucy Andersons in the colour Berry Extreme 94, this one is my nightmare. I love the colour, I really do; it's, again, a purple one probably a bit darker than the Revlon one but it's nice. The problem with this buddy is that I can't wear it without moisturize my lips with a balm before. It's rough and make my lips uncomfortable like they're tight enough that when I'm going to smile they'll break down. If you're wonder, why do I still wear it is just because the colour but it's not one I'm always having on my lips. Just wear them on some situations and my mood that day.
L'Oréal Color Riche Violet Saturne 214, again a lovely purple one. To be honest, this one was the first I've worn this fall. It's shiny and I like it, even though I'm not a sparkle obsessed! The colour is super nice, I don't know how to describe it clearly but depends of the ilumination it might look dark or bright, crazy right? I'll wear it when I hang out with friends and probably when I go to a party (calm down, party animal haha)
Last but not least, the L'Oréal Lipcolour Pencil (I'm sorry I don't know in which colour), another nightmare but a bit more loved than the other one. The colour is absolutely perfect, a orange-red complements perfectly a warm and cosy outfit. But the problem here is the same as the Lucy Anderson one has. It makes my lips tight if I don't moisturise them before. Furthermore, I prefer this one than the other, so it's not a big deal of decisions.
Well, that was huge! I've never done a long review like this one but I really hope you enjoy it, I sometime think that everything I write is odd and boring! Hahaha
So now tell me, what are your favourites lipsticks for this season? (I know most of you are enjoying the warm weather but I think you do have a favourite lipstick for spring-summer 2014) I love reading comments so let me know below :)

All those colors look so pretty! Definitely want to try them out! But my favorite lipstick at the moment is an Aerie lipstick but their lipstick range is discontinued. The color is slightly more pink than my natural lip color, and it has a nice shimmer.
ReplyDeleteI've been looking for a shade exactly like that Revelon one for ages now.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing, i'll have a look out for it in Boots tomorrow
