Ciaté London Liquid Velvet - Moisturizing Matte Liquid Lipstick - Head Over Heels










The creamy long wearing bright fuchsia berry liquid lipstick went on smoothly. The ultra vibrant lipstick has a matte finish that promises to be non drying. It is enriched with hyaluronic acid to enrich  and condition lips. The color was long lasting, bold and beautiful but sadly the formula felt very drying. I would recommend moisturizing lips prior as it showed every flake on my lips.

Borghese Princess Marcella Classic Velvet Lipcolour - 06 Bruna










I am not sure where I got this lipstick and I also can't seem to find any information about this lipstick. I guess it just proves I need to stop buying makeup and start using the stuff in my possession first (like that's going to happen). I never wore black lipstick before but it took some getting used to. After applying it for the first time and having mixed feelings, I am starting to like the lipstick. The black lipstick is slightly sheer (even with a couple of coats) with purple iridescent glitter to give it dimension. I can't say this is my favorite lipstick, but it is quite bold.

Zoya Matte Velvet Lacquer - Mitzi




















The matte chartreuse green is easily one of  my favorite matte colors. I love the color but it is easily one of the most disgusting nail polish to apply.  With only one coat it goes on very streaky and uneven. When you put on three coats to get an even application, my nails looks chunky, weird and thick. I also hate how as soon as I finish putting it on, I manage to get a bunch of chips. No matter, if I used a top and base coat.

NARS Velvet Gloss Lip Pencil - New Lover







This velvety lip pencil imparts a glossy sheen and leaving lips buttery soft. The  creamy lip pencil is packed with vitamin E, hyaluronic spheres, and phytosterol esther. The lip pencil left a soft strawberry color with gold flecks. While I like the color, it is hardly noticeable against my natural lip color. Overall, I like the soft wash of long lasting color and how soft my lips felt. Applying the lip pencil felt like apply lip butter but not as greasy and not sticky. A word of caution, I was using this during the summer, so try not to sharpen to much product otherwise the tip breaks off easy or melts a bit.
