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…

Ever since I bought my nail art pens that I blogged about here, I’ve got quite into nail art. I’m certainly no professional when it comes to nail art, but I have become quite good at some of the more simple designs. One of my favourite to do is leopard print. Leopard print is one of…
I’m not usually one to get sucked in to the sales after Christmas, but this year I was sucked into a couple of 50% off sales, one being from The Body Shop. I love The Body Shop products and find I always have a ‘back up stock’ of them. I originally wasn’t going to make…
