i have always been the kind of woman who would take forever to put makeup on and not bother to take extra moments to put on some lip color... i used to have full face of makeup and only dab some lip balm..
but then.. i was introduced to lipsticks, lipliners and i found my new love...
i am now a declared lip junkie and here are my favs. most of these shown on the picture are current purchases but i m litteralli almost running out of some.
L to R:
Flormar: L16
NYX:565
MAC:ruby woo
Essence:soft nude
Flormar (L16): this lipstick is nude.matte and has some beige orangy undertones which i must say does look pale at times but still it has the most amazing payoff. it is from the longlasting range and let me tell you.. it is longlasting.. unfotunately it can get a bit drying so LIPBALM is key. ( it is said to be a dupe for MAC Cherish)
NYX(565): if you know me you know that i am into VERY matte lipcolors but this lipstick however made me change my mind. it has a satin finish but i still wear it a lot because of the beautiful color. it is such a nice muted berry color. i actually recommend this for those of you who like a vampy lip but aren't too daring. BUT it is not very long lasting.
MAC(ruby woo): i don't think this lipstick in particular needs any introduction. it is a very vibrant classic pinup red but that has a very very dry ( since it is a retro matte) so i apply it in dabbing motion after having already moisturized an lined my lips with essence's lipliner in femme fatale.
Essence(XXXXL matte soft nude): This gloss is the cheapest one among my favorites but i still get the most use out of it because not only it is the kind of "your lips but better" lip color but also has a very sweet caramel scent to it. it doesn't dry completely matte but is still doesn't feel dry <3 I AM IN LOVE.
i have swatched these babies for you :) hope you'll like them.
L to R: NYX,Flormar,MAC,Essence.
