My Autumn Lipsticks

Hi guys, so we are deep into my favourite season now, which is obviously Autumn, I just love being able to go outside in a jumper and finding I am not too hot or too cold. There are many things I love about this season including the weather, the leaves, the celebrations, the fashion and of course the makeup. I really love the darker hues and the warmer shades and the ability to experiment with the endless trends around this time of year. Having said that I thought I would share a few of my favourite highstreet/drugstore lipsticks at the moment. So here they are...

From left to right they are: 17 Supreme Shine Lipstick in shade Pink Posey, Revlon Colorburst Lip Butter in shade 050 Berry Smoothie, Revlon Colorburst Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain in shade 001 Honey, Rimmel Kate Moss Matte Lipstick in shade 107 and 17 Stay Pout Lipstick in shade Rule Breaker.

 

1. I love this colour simply because it is so unique, it is a vibrant berry shade and looks amazing on a variety of skin colours. It only costs £4.99 which I think is amazing for the formula which is glossy and moisturizing but yet still long lasting and after wearing off leaves a lovely stain on the lips. I think this is the perfect day to night Autumn lip colour.

2. The Revlon Colorburst Lip Butters were a huge success and had a high level of hype around them, I wasn't a fan of the first shade I picked up but when they were on offer I decided to pick up shade 050 and this shade changed my opinion on the whole line. I really like this as it is so wearable, if you want to darken your lip colour yet still want to have natural makeup, this glossy easy to wear lip butter is for you! Price £7.99.

3. I bought this in the recent summer and have loved it since day one. The shade is stunning and the reason I have included it in my fall picks is because it is in my opinion a berry twist on a classic nude. I love the mauve look it gives my lip and it just works so well with any look. I think it is a real must have as the tingly formula and the unusual colour make it perfect for the colder months. Price £7.99.

4. This colour is a classic, I would describe it as a raspberry wine, perfect for an evening as it is a rich colour and because it is matte, it lasts ages! I love this line and own three of the colours, I love how the matte formula doesn't dry out my lips. Price £5.49.

5. This is my latest addition of all the five lip products, it's gorgeous (my pictures don't really do it justice). It is the perfect purple lip for me as I can wear it comfortably because the slight berry look to it makes it more wearable in my opinion. The formula is long lasting with a satin type finish and I love this line, will definitely be picking up a few more colours as the colour selection is fab! Price £4.49.

(pictures are no flash, flash, no flash, flash) Sorry I swatched them in the same order as the first image however the Rimmel lipstick is at the end and the stay pout lipstick is second to last, sorry.

 

So these are my favourite Autumn lippies at the moment, I would love to hear yours! It has made me realise I need to try some less pink colours and maybe get out of my comfort zone. This is my first ever blog post so constructive criticism, questions and ideas for future blogs are more than welcome. -Alex-
