Feeling pink

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I’m wearing another one of my favourite lipsticks at the moment which is the Maybelline Colorsensational lipstick in the colour Feel Pink. It’s just such a gorgeous neutral pink that goes with pretty much any eye make-up.

Lillium

In mid January I ordered two products from BeautyBay.com one of them being this Stila Convertible Color. It’s described as a dual lip and cheek cream. I’ve only worn it on my lips once, and it didn’t last very long on the lips, but I absolutely love it on the cheeks. This one is in the colour Lillium and it’s a very neutral light mauvy pink colour which is one of my preferred cheek colours. I would love to get some more of these, because it’s a really great cream product.

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. As I wrote when I bought the silver liquid eyeliner, it would most likely become a party make-up stable for me, and it has. I wanted to wear a hot pink lipstick to go with my pink blazer, and that requires a simple eye make-up, and some silver eyeliner is the perfect way of glamming up the look.

Maybe it’s Maybelline

I’ve been purchasing quite a few lip products lately (no surprise there), and here’s another two. I bought these when Maybelline still had the 30 % off deal, and on top of that they had a deal where you would get a free brush if you bought two products. The brush is a big, fluffy powder brush, as you can see, and it’s actually quite nice. And now on to the lip products. I’ve written about my obsession with the Maybelline Color Drama lip pencil in 210 Keep It Classy, so I decided to pick up another shade. I chose the one called 410 Fab Orange, and I think the name describes the colour very well:) I also picked up my first Maybelline Colorsensational lipstick which I’ve heard many good things about. I chose the colour 162 Feel Pink which is a very pretty, neutral pink, and I love it. After my past few shopping trips I have definitely opened my eyes to Maybelline lip products, and I’m impressed.

Keep it classy

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I’m wearing the Maybelline Color Drama lip pencil from this post, and as I’ve already mentioned, I’m obsessed with it!

Purple and pink

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. As I wrote here, the sweatshirt screams for colourful make-up looks, so I decided to go with metallic purple eyes and soft pink lips.

Neutral pinks

I did quite a lot of shopping in January and I still haven’t shown you a lot of the stuff I bought. I bought these three products when the drugstores had a 2 for 1 deal on Rimmel and a 30 % off deal on Maybelline. From Rimmel I bought another Lasting Finish Colour Rush Long Lasting Intense Colour Balm and a Lasting Finish Soft Colour Blush. The Colour Balm is in the colour 110 Make Me Blush. I’m really into neutral pinks at the moment, and I been swatching this one on the back of my hand many times and finally decided to get it. It looks more like a neutral pink in the tube and on the hand swatch than on the lips. It’s less neutral and more pink on the lips, but it’s still very pretty. The blusher is in the colour 020 Pink Rose, and even though it looks like a peachy nude in the pan, it’s actually more pink on the skin (which fits with the name), but I really like that. I really like the colour and I really like the texture and finish as well, and I been wearing it quite a lot since I bought it. Last, but not least, I bought my first Maybelline Color Drama Intense Velvet Lip Pencil. It’s in the colour 210 Keep It Classy and I’m obsessed! It’s obviously a jumbo pencil type product, but it’s sooo smooth and really easy to apply. It’s long lasting as well, and the colour… the colour is incredible. It’s the most gorgeous, deep, neutral, rosy pink. One of my favourite lip products at the moment.

Same red!?

I’ve been wanting to try these L’Oréal Collection Exclusive lipsticks for a long time, and when I found them really cheap on sale in January I decided to get two. I couldn’t see the actual colours, so I chose them based on the colour of the stickers on the bottom of the lipsticks. I’d heard beauty youtubers talk about Blake’s Pure Red, so I went for that one, and then I thought J Lo’s Pure Red looked pretty too (based on the sticker), but as it turns out, the two lipsticks are almost identical. The colour(s) are gorgeous and I love the matte finish, but if I had known that they were this similar I wouldn’t have bought both of them. But as I said they were so cheap, so it’s not a big loss:)

Wearable blues

Here’s the make-up I wore Monday January 12. I remember just wanting to play around with blue shades that day, and I really like how the look turned out. Blue shadows can sometimes be tricky to wear, but this look is quite subtle and very wearable in my opinion.
