If you saw my Bourjois A-Z of Beauty Giveaway Winnings post you’ll have seen I was lucky to get my hands on several things from Bourjois, and one of them included one of the Shine Edition Lipsticks in the shade Rouge Making Of. Being a complete lipstick addict this is one of the first things I got around to playing with first. I also thought that out of everything the packaging stood out the most.
First thing I thought when I tried this was how it reminded me of the Revlon Lip Butters. The packaging, texture and the balm like feel of it, are all very similar. One thing that I found to be different is the pigmentation of the colour. I have the shade Rouge Making Of, a gorgeous bright red shade, and I found that once applied it stayed on for hours. In fact I completely forgot I even applied it and caught my reflection hours later to find it was still there. Just like the Revlon Lip Butters I found it to be super moisturising, which will come in pretty handy now we’re approaching the winter months. I’m not normally a bright red lip type of girl, in fact I’ve only just started venturing out into the world of a dark red lip. So when I first opened this I thought it seemed a little bright, and wasn’t too sure if this would be for me. However when I applied it I found it didn’t come out so bright, and you could even apply it with a lip brush if you wanted a more softer colour.
I think I’m some what smitten with this Shine Edition Lipstick, and I think it may be making several appearances in my daily make up. I’m now even eyeing up some more of the Bourjois Shine Edition Lipsticks…
It’s probably been forever since I’ve posted a NOTD post. In fact since May I’ve hardly worn nail varnish. I had the worlds most boring summer, where I spent the whole time at work, where I can’t wear nail varnish. The first few weeks of not being able to wear nail varnish was horrible. I…
Recently me and my lovely friend Sophia went to get our nails done to treat ourselves. I’ve never had my nails done but I’ve always heard that Shellac is a good choice. Apparently it’s meant to last for 2 weeks without chipping, but sadly I’ve not had that much luck with them. First of all…
If you’ve been a close follower of my blog over the past few years you’ll have seen that many Lush products have been mentioned. I’ve grown quite an obsession with their products, and my bathroom is slowly filling up with all sorts of bath bombs and bubble bars. I decided its about time I dedicated…
There’s no denying it but every blogger probably owns the real technique brushes. Since these came out in Boots stores last year everyone has gone mental over them. I purchased mine back in July and since I bought them its changed how I do my make up. Once upon a time I used to apply…
Soap & Glory is a brand I have loved for the longest time. Since discovering them when I was 16 I’ve bought hundreds and hundreds of their products, and none of them disappoint. It had been a while since I last had a Soap & Glory haul, so when payday came around I decided it was…
I frequently rave about Lush face masks on my blog. Since discovering them I’ve gone a bit mad for them and constantly find myself buying them. I tend to stick to the same ones so there’s not been many posts about them, but last time I was in Lush I decided it was about time…
