QUESTION OF THE WEEK: WHAT'S IN YOUR DAILY MAKEUP BAG?


Do you have any beauty products that you can't leave home without? I have a handful of products that I like to keep in my daily makeup bag, which I carry around with me in my handbag. I thought that I would share them with you in today's blog post, so let's get started! :-)

MY FAVORITE BEAUTY PRODUCTS IN 2015

Happy New Year! I can't believe that it's 2016 already, where has this past year gone? I really hope that you all had a wonderful celebration with your loved ones and that the new year is treating you well so far. As you might have noticed, I have been missing in action for a while now. I've been quite busy with work and I just felt like taking a little break from the blog to gain some inspiration.

One of my new year resulutions this year is to get back into blogging again. I love interacting with you and sharing my favorite products with you as well as fun, new upcoming products on the beauty marked. Be sure to let me know if there are any specific posts you would like to see more off on my blog this year, I would love to do them for you! But enough rambling, let's jump into my 2015 beauty favorites! :-) 
Maybelline Fit Me Foundation in 105:
The Maybelline Fit Me Foundation has been my most reached for foundation in 2015. I really like how lightweight it feels and how natural it looks on my skin. It's easy to apply and very easy to blend. It feels a little sticky on the skin after it's been applied, so I always make sure to set it with a powder afterwards. I think this is such a great foundation for the price and I always find myself going back to it whenever I'm doing my makeup. 

MAC Cosmetics Pro Longwear Concealer in NW15:
What I really like about the Pro Longwear concealer from MAC Cosmetics is that it doesn't crease underneath my eyes. The coverage is wonderful and it's got a thick consistency, which is very easy to apply and blend out. I really like how it brightens up my face and makes me look more awake, it's definitely a life changer on those early mornings. The only thing that I don't like about it is the scent. The smell reminds me of paint, you know what I mean if you have tried it out for yourself or if you are familiar with their Studio Fix Fluid foundation. But once you have applied the concealer, you don't notice the scent anymore. Pro Longwear concealer from MAC Cosmetics is a little pricier compared to the Fit Me concealer from Maybelline, but I really think that it's worth the $21 price tag. A little goes a very long way with this concealer, so it's going to last you a good while! :-)

Maybelline Fit Me Concealer in 15:
The Maybelline Fit Me concealer has good pigmentation, it doesn't crease too much under my eyes and it's easy to blend as well. The coverage isn't as good as Pro Longwear from MAC Cosmetics, but it gets the job done. Fit Me is a great choice if you are looking for a more affordable concealer to try out for yourself. I'm almost finished with this tube, so I need to pick up another one the next time I'm at the mall! :-)

L'Oreal Paris Brow Stylist Plumper in Light to Medium:
After hearing so many lovely things about L'Oreal Paris Brow Stylist Plumper from Shaaanxo on YouTube, I just had to test it out for myself. Guess what? I have been hooked on it ever since, ha ha. It has quickly become a must have and a staple in my daily makeup bag. It's very easy to apply due to the small applicator brush, makes it so easy for you to comb through each and every single brow hair. It looks very natural on the brows, it last a long time and it doesn't make them feel too stiff and uncomfortable either. The only thing that I don't like about it is that the brush can sometimes have too much product on it. I like to wipe it with a tissue to remove any access product before I apply it on my brows. But other than that this product gets two thumbs up from me! :-)

Rimmel London Wonder'Full Wake Me Up Mascara in 001 Black:
One of my favorite mascara's in 2015 has been the Wonder'Full Wake Me Up Mascara from Rimmel London. The lovely people over at LookFantastic sent it to me, which I'm so grateful for. It's such a nice mascara, which looks very natural on the eyes. It gives my lashes nice lenght, but not as much volume as I hoped for. I love that it doesn't make my lashes look clumpy,stiff or feel uncomfortable. If you are blessed with thick and volumunous eye lashes and you just want to give your lashes some nice lenght, definitely check out this mascara. I think it's lovely and I would definitely re-purchase it. 

Urban Decay All Nighter Makeup Setting Spray:
All Nighter Makeup Setting Spray from Urban Decay has been a huge favorite of mine in 2015. It feels so nice and refreshing on the skin. I like to apply it after I'm done doing my makeup. It sets everything in place and makes my makeup last thoughout the day. My skin is quite dry, so the powder
 (Rimmel London Stay Matte Long Lasting Pressed Powder) that I use to set my foundation with usually sticks to any dry patches on my skin. But this takes away that powdery, dry look and makes my makeup look so pretty and natural. Urban Decay All Nighter Makeup Setting Spray has quickly become one of my holy grail beauty products and I can't see myself not using it everyday! :-)  
Urban Decay Naked Basics Eyeshadow Palette:
Urban Decay Naked Basics Eyeshadow Palette has been my go-to, everyday eyeshadow palette in 2015. The palette is filled with 6 gorgeous eyeshadows, 1 shimmery shade and 5 matte shades. The eyeshadows are nicely pigmented and they feel silky and very smooth to the touch. They are very easy to apply and blend out as well. Some of the eyeshadows are a bit chalky, but that's okay. It's nothing too crazy that would make me not want to use them. 
 Urban Decay is one of my favorite brands and I personally think that they make some of the best eyeshadows on the beauty marked. If you are looking for a new, neutral eyeshadow palette to try out, definitely keep this one in mind next time that you are going shopping. It's such a handy little palette that is perfect for everyday use and it also makes the perfect little travel companion as well! :-) 
Hourglass Cosmetics Ambient Lighting Blush in Radiant Magenta:
My favorite blush in 2015 have hands down been Radiant Magenta by Hourglass Cosmetics. It's a beautiful golden fuchsia blush, which looks absolutely gorgeous and surprisingly natural on the cheeks. The pigmentation is wonderful and it has a very soft and smooth texture that blends like a dream. Hourglass Cosmetics definitely knows a thing or two about packaging! If you are looking for a high-end blush to splurge on, you should check these out. They are truly stunning and worth the money in my opinion! :-) 
MAC Cosmetics Mineralize Skinfinish in Soft and Gentle:
If you have been following my blog for a while now, this next product shouldn't come as a shock to you. MAC Cosmetics Mineralize Skinfinish in Soft and Gentle has been my favorite, go-to highlighter in 2015. It's a gorgeous golden champagne highlighter, which is nicely pigmented and looks stunning on top of the cheekbones. It can also be used on the eyes, which I have been doing a lot as well. I love using it on the inner corner of my eyes, because it makes the entire makeup look really soft and pretty while making you look more awake as well.
H&M Lipstick in Brunette Ambition:
Have you seen the new beauty range from H&M? I did a beauty haul a while ago featuring a couple of items from their new range (here) and this lipstick is one of the items that I picked up. I'm so happy that I decided to go for this particuar color, because it's the perfect everyday color. This liptsick is called Brunette Ambition and it's a gorgeous, deep pinky brown. The pigmentation is very nice, it's really creamy and it feels  comfortable to wear on the lips as well. The formula and quality of this lipstick is quite impressive, it definitely makes me want to head back into H&M and pick up more shades from this range! :-) 
MAC Cosmetics Lip Liner in Soar and Lipstick in Brave:
My favorite lip combination in 2015 have been Soar lip pencil and Brave lipstick from MAC Cosmetics. They are both gorgeous worn alone but together they create the most beautiful, pinky brown. Lipsticks have always been a weakness off mine, especially deeper, nude shades. ''Concealer'' lips have never been my thing, I've always gravitated towards lip colors like these two. Soar is such a nice color on it's own, but I don't like how drying it feels on my lips. So that's why I love pairing these two together, it's just the perfect everyday combination! :-) 
 There you go, my top favorite beauty products in 2015! What products did you love in 2015? Do we have any of the same favorites? :-) 
Love, Christine ♥

FIVE MOST USED: LIPSTICKS

Today, I have another ''Five Most Used'' post to share with you and this one is going to be centered around some of my all time favorite lipsticks. Most of these are from the drugstore, but there is also a high-end lipstick thrown into the mix. It's one of my favorites, so I just had to include it! :-)

If you missed my five most used base products post, you can check it out it HERE! :-) 

 ♥ L'Oreal Paris Lipstick in Fairest Nude, Revlon Colorburst Lipstick in Mauve, Revlon Lip Butter in Berry Smoothie, Rimmel London Lasting Finish by Kate Lipstick in 08 & YSL Rouge Volupte Lipstick in Spicy Pink. 

♥ L'Oreal Paris Lipstick in Fairest Nude, Revlon Colorburst Lipstick in Mauve, Revlon Lip Butter in Berry Smoothie, Rimmel London Lasting Finish by Kate Lipstick in 08 & YSL Rouge Volupte Lipstick in Spicy Pink. 

 ♥ L'Oreal Paris Lipstick in Fairest Nude, HERE

Fairest Nude by L'Oreal Paris is one of my all time favorite lipsticks. I remember falling head over heels in love with it after seeing the lovely Sccastaneda on YouTube rave about it in one of her videos. Thanks to her, I'm addicted to it and I have already gone through a couple tubes of it. It's not too light nor too dark. If you love nude lipsticks, Fairest Nude is definitely a must have! :-)

 ♥ Revlon Colorburst Lipstick in Mauve, HERE.

Revlon Colorburst Lipstick in Mauve has been a huge favorite of mine for a couple of years now. It's such a pretty pinky mauve. It's nice and creamy, has great pigmentation and it doesn't feel drying on my lips at all. I have been keeping it in my handbag for a while now, it's such a nice everyday kind of shade! :-)

 ♥ Revlon Lip Butter in Berry Smoothie, HERE.

The lip butters from Revlon are some of my favorite lip products from the drugstore. I have managed to collect 8 shades from this range and I'm in love with all of them. One of my favorite is called Berry Smoothie and it's a beautiful berry pink with golden shimmer.

I have been raving about this shade in a couple of my Monthly Favorite posts. I love it and I think it's such a nice color for everyday! :-)

 ♥ Rimmel London Lasting Finish by Kate Lipstick in 08, HERE.

The Rimmel London Lasting Finish by Kate Lipstick in 08 is a beautiful pinky, brown mauve. The formula is infused with black diamonds, which reflects light beautifully. It applies smoothly, has great color payoff and a pleasent scent as well. It doesn't feel drying on the lips, which is perfect if you have dry lips like myself! :-)

♥ YSL Rouge Volupte Lipstick in Spicy Pink, HERE.

YSL Rouge Volupte Lipstick in Spicy Pink (20) is my favorite lipstick my high-end lipstick drawer. It's a beautiful dusty rose with a slight mauve undertone. It's nice and creamy, it looks very glossy on the lips and it has great pigmentation as well. Everything about this lipstick from YSL is beautiful. If you are going to splurge on a lipstick, these are definitely a great choice! :-)

There is no denying that I have a thing for drugstore lipsticks. My entire lipstick collection consist of mostly drugstore lipsticks. There are so many affordable, great quality lipsticks on the beauty market today, so there is really no need for me to be a crazy lipstick lady in the high-end department. But every once in a while I like to treat myself to a high-end lipstick. What lipstick brand do you like to splurge on? :-)

Do you prefer drugstore or high-end lipsticks? Have you tried out any of the lipsticks above?What's your favorite drugstore/high-end lipstick? :-) Love, Christine♥

FIVE MOST USED: BASE PRODUCTS

I have decided to start a new little series on my blog called Five Most Used. In these blog posts, I will be sharing my five most used beauty products in various categories. I was inspired by the lovely Jess from Just Jess to do this series on my blog. I'm so excited and I can't wait to start sharing some of my favorite and most used beauty products with you all! :-)

I thought I would start off this post with my five most used base products, since they are the first step in my makeup routine. I hope you enjoy this new series on my blog, be sure to let me know which category you would like to see next! :-)

 ♥ Benefit Cosmetics The POREfessional, HERE.

The POREfessional from Benefit Cosmetics has been my go-to primer for a while now. It's very smooth and it feels very soft on the skin. It minimizes the appearance of pores and blurs out any imperfections on the skin. It also makes the foundation go on easier and look more smooth and even! :-)
 ♥ Maybelline Fit Me Foundation in 110 & 115, HERE

I have expressed my love for the Maybelline Fit Me Foundation in quite a few blog posts, the Top 10 tag being the most recent one. It has been a big favorite of mine for a while now. I love how natural it looks on the skin, it doesn't feel heavy or make my skin look cakey. It's so easy to apply and it has a very nice and fresh finish on the skin.

Like I mentioned in my Top 10 tag post, I use both 110 and 115. 110 has a yellow undertone, but it's a bit light on it's own. 115 has more of a pink undertone, but it's slightly dark for my skin tone. So I like to mix and match these two shades together to create a more wearable color for myself. Definitely worth checking out if you are in the market for a new foundation! :-)

 
 ♥ Maybelline Dream Fresh BB Cream in Light, HERE

On days that I'm not in the mood to wear any foundation but still want to look somewhat decent and put together, the Dream Fresh BB Cream from Maybelline is my go-to product. It feels very lightweight on the skin, it looks very natural while giving the skin a nice and fresh look.

I have already gone though a couple tubes of this BB cream and I really like it. Are you a fan of BB creams? Which one is your favorite? :-)

 ♥ Maybelline Fit Me Concealer in 15, HERE.

I can't seem to get enough of the Maybelline Fit Me Concealer. I have been sticking to this concealer for a couple of years now and it's always the one that I end up going back to. I just like how easy it is to apply and blend. It has a nice coverage and it doesn't crease too much under my eyes.

I always start by applying just a little bit of the concealer under my eyes, then I go back and apply more if I feel like I need it. By starting with applying just a little concealer, I'm preventing it from creasing and looking cakey under the eyes! :-) 

♥ Rimmel London Stay Matte Long Lasting Powder in Translusent, HERE

The Rimmel London Stay Matte Long Lasting Pressed Powder has been a big favorite of mine ever since the wonderful Krystal from Beauty by Krystal sent it to me in a makeup swap that we did together a while ago.

I like using this powder to set my under eye concealer and to prevent it from moving around throughout the day. I sometimes like to use it to set my foundation in place, but I mostly just use it under my eyes. It's a very nice powder and it's quite affordable as well, which is always a big plus in my book! :-) 

Have you tried out any of the products above? What do you think about them? What category in this new blog series would you like me to do next? :-) Love, Christine♥

TAG: TOP 10

I came across the Top 10 tag over at Cliona's blog called Cliona Hill, which was originally created by Jessica from Pretty Chit Chat. I wasn't tagged by the girls to do this, but I thought it would be fun to do it anyway since I'm a huge fan of fun tags like this one.

The Top 10 tag is all about the top 10 beauty products that you can't live without. So if you were going away and you could only take one item from each category with you, what products would you pick? This is where it gets interesting, lol. I have so many favorite products that I love and adore, so it's definitely not easy for me to choose just ten products. I finally managed to narrow it down to just ten products. These are all products that I have been a fan of for a while now, some are even favorites that I have been loving for a couple of years. Keep reading to find out what products I chose for my ''going away'' trip! :-) 

 ♥ Maybelline Fit Me Foundation in 110 & 115, HERE

1. Foundation: 
There are lots of foundations that I really like and love to use, but my favorite one is hands down the Fit Me Foundation by Maybelline. I have talked about this foundation a lot in previous blog posts, like my monthly favorites.

The Maybelline Fit Me Foundation is very easy to apply. It looks very natural on the skin and it doesn't feel heavy or look cakey. It has a lovely finish, which makes my skin look very nice and fresh. I use both 110 and 115. 110 has a yellow undertone and looks a bit too light on it's own, while 115 has a pink undertone but is a little on the darker side. I like to mix and match both of these shades together to create a more wearable shade for myself. It's not always easy being a pale ghost in the beauty world! :-) 

 ♥ Rimmel London Stay Matte Long Lasting Pressed Powder in Transparent, HERE

2. Powder: 
I'm loving the Stay Matte Long Lasting Pressed Powder by Rimmel London. I have been using it almost every single day since the lovely Krystal from Beauty by Krystal sent it to me in a swap that we did together a while ago.

I mostly use the Stay Matte Long Lasting Pressed Powder to set and prevent my under eye concealer from moving around throughout the day. Sometimes, I like to use it on the rest of my face too, just to keep my foundation in place if it's a hot day. It's such a nice powder. It works great and it's really affordable as well! :-)

 ♥ Maybelline Fit Me Concealer in 15, HERE

3. Concealer:
Definitely the Maybelline Fit Me concealer. It's very easy to blend and it has a nice coverage as well. I love using it with the Fit Me foundation, because they work so well together. It doesn't crease too much under my eyes. I prefer to apply just a little concealer under my eyes, then go back and apply more if I feel like I need some more coverage. That way I won't apply too much product at once and it's going to prevent it from creasing and looking cakey.

This is my second tube of the Fit Me concealer. I don't have much left in the tube, so I need to get my hands on a new one soon! :-)

 ♥ Hourglass Ambient Lighting Blush in Radiant Magenta, HERE

 ♥ Hourglass Ambient Lighting Blush in Radiant Magenta, HERE

4. Blush:
I have been obsessed with the Hourglass Ambient Lighting Blush in Radiant Magenta for the past month. This blush is rather new to my makeup collection, but I have been using it almost every single day since I got it. It blends easily into the skin. It's got a bit of shimmer in it, which gives the cheeks a nice glow. You can build it up and make it more intense if you want to, or you can sheer it and make it look very natural on the cheeks.

I know that Hourglass isn't the cheapest brand out there, but this blush is so worth the money in my opionion. Everything about this blush is just beautiful. If you are thinking about splurging on an Ambient Lighting Blush from Hourglass, Radiant Magenta is a good choice! :-) 

 ♥ The Body Shop Honey Bronze Bronzing Powder in 01, HERE

♥ The Body Shop Honey Bronze Bronzing Powder in 01, HERE

5. Bronzer:
I have been really into the Honey Bronze Bronzing Powder by The Body Shop. It looks very natural on the skin. It's easy to apply and blend, has nice pigmentation, it's build able and it doesn't make you look orange like some bronzers do. After hearing so many lovely things about this bronzer, I just had to add it to my collection. It's the perfect bronzer for girls with a fair/light skin tone. 

 ♥ MAC Cosmetics Mineralize Skinfinish in Soft and Gentle, HERE

 ♥ MAC Cosmetics Mineralize Skinfinish in Soft and Gentle, HERE

6. Highlighter:
I'm still sticking to my MAC Cosmetics Mineralize Skinfinish in Soft and Gentle. It's been my favorite highlighter for the past couple of years now, it's also my most used highlighter in my entire makeup collection. I just love how it looks on the skin, very beautiful and glowy.

Soft and Gente isn't one of the the most affordable highlighters on the beauty market, but I think it's worth every penny. A little goes a long way with this one so it's going to last you a very long time, definitely a must have in my book! :-) 

 ♥ Rimmel London Lash Accelerator Mascara, HERE

7. Mascara:
The Rimmel London Lash Accelerator is my favorite mascara at the moment. I used to use it a couple of years ago, but didn't re-purchase it because I had a lot of other mascaras that I needed to use up first. I decided to pick it up again at Boots in London, because I remembered how much I used to love it. I'm so happy that I decided to pick it up again, because I have fallen in love with it all over again.

I love that it doesn't clump or make my lashes stick together. It gives my lashes nice length and volume and it's build able as well. I will definitely be picking up a couple of backups of this mascara soon! :-) 

 ♥ Urban Decay Naked Basics Eyeshadow Palette, HERE

♥ Urban Decay Naked Basics Eyeshadow Palette, HERE

8. Eyeshadow:
Neutral eyeshadows have always been a weakness of mine when it comes to beauty products, because they are some of my favorite products to test and try out. I always find single eyeshadows or palettes that I want to try out, regardless if I have something similar to it in my collection already.

One of my favorite and most used palettes is the Urban Decay Naked Basics palette. It's such a nice, every day kind of palette. The eyeshadows are soft and they feel quite smooth, they are nicely pigmented and easy to blend. I really want to get my hands on the Naked Basics 2 palette, it looks gorgeous. What do you think about it? Have you picked it up yet? It's available at Sephora, HERE! :-) 

 ♥ Benefit Cosmetics Gimme Brow, HERE

9. Brows:
Definitely Gimme Brow by Benefit Cosmetics. It's been my go-to brow product for a month now and I couldn't be any more happier with it. I have never been good at filling in my brows with powder, so this has been a big game changer for my brows. It's really quick and easy to use and it makes the brows look very natural and pretty. I reviewed it a couple of weeks ago. If you haven't seen it yet, you can find it HERE! :-) 

♥ Carmex Lip Balm in Cherry, HERE

10. Lip Product:
I'm not going to lie, I have become a little addicted to the Carmex Lip Balm in Cherry and it has quickly turned into a big favorite of mine. It feels nice on the lips without being greasy or sticky. I love applying it at night right before I go to bed, because it make my lips so smooth and soft when I wake up the next morning. I reviewed it a while ago. If you missed it,  you can find it HERE! :-) 

Tag your it! I want to see your top 10 favorite products. If you have already done this tag, please leave the link to your post down below, because I would love to check it out! :-) 

What do you think about the Top 10 Tag? Have you done it on your blog? Have you tried out any of the products above? :-) Love, Christine♥

TAG: LIP PRODUCT ADDICT

Hey guys, how are you doing today? I hope that you are having a lovely day! I recently came across the Lip Product Addict tag over at Leah's blog Reviews on Beauty. I'm obsessed with lip products, especially lipsticks, so I thought it would be fun to do this tag as well! There are seven questions in total, so let's get started! :-) 

 ♥ EOS Lip Balm in Summer Fruit & LUSH Cosmetics Lip Scrub in Mint Julips. 

1. Favourite Balm or Treatment:
My favorite balm is hands down the Summer Fruit Lip Balm by EOS. It makes my lips so soft and smooth, I'm obsessed. As for treatments, I love the Mint Julips Lip Scrub from LUSH Cosmetics. It does a really nice job exfoliating the lips. My lips always feel super soft and luscious afterwards. Highly recommend them! :-)

 ♥ Rimmel London Lip Lacquer in Stellar. 

2. Best Eye-Catching Red:
As I have mentioned a few times before, I have never been a big fan off red lipsticks. I do have a few in my collection, but I hardly ever wear them. I don't think that they look that good on me to be honest, maybe I just haven't found the right kind off red that suits me and my skin tone.

I do like the Rimmel London Lip Lacquer in Stellar though. It's not a true red, it's more off a bright pink with hint off red. It's one off those shades that lights up your face and make you look alive, if that makes any sense, LOL! :-) 

 ♥ Rimmel London Lip Lacquer in Stellar. 

 ♥ YSL Rouge Volupte Lipstick in #20 Spicy Pink. 

3. Best Luxury & Best Drugstore Lip Product:
The best luxury lip product that I own is by YSL. I have two off their Rouge Volupte lipsticks in my makeup collection. I like both off the shades, but my favorite is #20 Spicy Pink. It's a pretty dusty rose with a slight mauve undertone. It's incredible creamy and it looks very glossy on the lips. I really want to get my hands on a few more shades, too bad they are so expensive.

As for the best drugstore lip product, I'm a big fan off the Milani Color Statement Lipsticks and the NYX Cosmetics Round Lipsticks. Revlon also have a bunch off really nice shades as well, I adore their Lip Butter range! :-) 

♥ Milani Color Statement Lipstick in Naturally Chic, NYX Round Lipstick in Paris & Revlon Lip Butter in Berry Smoothie. 
 
4. Best MAC Lipstick:
I have a couple off MAC lipsticks that I really like and find myself reaching for a lot. They are called Playtime and Taupe. Unfortunately, Playtime was released as part off the Venomous Villains Collection for Disney, so I'm not sure if you can find it anymore. You might be able to find it on eBay or maybe Amazon! :-)  

 ♥ MAC Cosmetics Lipstick in Taupe & Playtime. 

5. Most Disappointing Lip Product:
I can't think off a lip product that has disappointed me. I usually just get rid off products that I don't like/doesn't work with me. I'm sure there have been a few lip products that I haven't enjoyed, but I can't think off any right now! :-)

6. Lip Liner - Yes or No?
I actually don't have a lot off lip liners in my makeup collection. I have a couple off the Slim Lip Liners from NYX Cosmetics that I like, but it's been a while since I have used them! :-)

 ♥ Revlon Super Lustrous Lip Gloss in Nude Lustre & Pink Afterglow. 

7. Favourite Gloss:
I'm a big fan off the Revlon Super Lustrous lip glosses. Pink Afterglow and Nude Lustre is my favorite shades from that range. I also love the NYX Cosmetics Butter Glosses in Tiramisu and Strawberry Parfait. I also have to mention Revenge is Sweet by MAC, which came out with the Disney Villain collection. I love pairing that particular lip gloss with the Playtime lipstick by MAC Cosmetics! :-)

♥ NYX Cosmetics Butter Gloss in Tiramisu and Strawberry Parfait. MAC Cosmetics Lip Gloss in Revenge is Sweet.

RIMMEL LONDON APOCALIPS LIP LACQUER IN CELESTIAL & STELLAR: REVIEW, PHOTOS & SWATCHES

The Rimmel London Apocalips Lip Lacquers (£5.99 for 0.18 fl.oz/5.5ml.) are offering an intense dose off color, enhanced by a satin smooth shine. They are packed with pure color pigments, and they have a very creamy formula that feels nice and comfortable on the lips. Keep reading to find out what I think about Celestial and Stellar! :-)

Overall, I really like the Rimmel London Apocalips Lip Lacquers. The packaging is lovely, both colors look beautiful on the lips and the formula is quite nice as well. They feel very smooth on the lips, not sticky at all. They are quite affordable as well, which is another great thing about these. I'm not the biggest fan off the scent though, but once it's on the lips, I don't notice it anymore. They do stain your lips though, so just a heads up.

There are quite a few bold and bright shades in this the Apocalips Lip Lacquer range. If bright and vibrant shades scare you, try dabbing the color on your lips a couple off times and blending it out with your finger. It's going to look a lot more natural on the lips, and even the scariest looking shades will become more wearable. I have always been into neutral lipsticks, because I feel more comfortable wearing them. But it's fun to step outside off the comfort zone every one and a while! :-)
