Collection Lasting Colour Lipsticks

Hello

On my venture into Superdrug last week I also purchased two Lasting Colour Lipsticks from Collection:

The shades I bought are 5 Passionfruit and 14 Mango Tango. Passionfruit (on the left) is slightly more muted than Mango Tango but they are quite similar. Passionfruit has gold flecks of glitter running through it which usually isn't my kind of thing but I actually really like it on! It is nearly Summer (apparently) after all. Mango Tango is the brighter of the two and leans more towards a coral shade, with no glitter. Both are quite pigmented and only needed a few swipes to get quite a bold look.

These are quite moisturising with SPF15 so absolutely perfect for summer. These are designed to last all day, but lets be honest - what lipstick does? They do stay put for a good few hours but I do need to reapply in the afternoon. At £2.99 each I don't really think you can go wrong. There are 9 shades that I can see on the website but I seem to think there were more in store.

Have you tried anything from Collection? Can you recommend any other brands of budget lipstick?

Bourjois Cream Blush

Hello

I bought the Bourjois Cream Blush last week in shade 02 "Healthy Glow".

I haven't used any Bourjois products since I was at school (a loonnnggg time ago) and the packaging hasn't really changed apart from this feels a lot skinnier than the old ones.

This is my first cream blusher and I am quite impressed, it is easy to apply and to blend to create quite a natural look. It is a cream to powder blusher so it feels very comfortable on the skin. I was a bit wary of trying a cream blusher because for some reason I thought they would be sticky (I have no idea why) so I have been pleasantly surprised.

At £7.99 it won't break the bank and Superdrug have 3 for 2 on all cosmetics at the moment which is always a good time to try new things!

The cream blushers come in 4 shades in total, the others being: 01 Nude Velvet, 03 Rose Tender and 04 Sweet Cherry, so there is something to suit everyone really.

Have you tried any of the new Cream Blushers? Are you a fan of Bourjois products?

Essie Tart Deco

Hello

I thought I would share with you today one of my much-loved Essie nail polishes. This shade is 74 Tart Deco and I would describe this as a warm summery coral.

I decided to wear this shade today as I have two exams and thought this would cheer me up! So far it is working :).

In the image above I have used two coats of Tart Deco followed by a top coat for extra shine. I find that the wear time on Essie polishes is around 5 days which is good for me seeing as I work on a computer.

These polishes retail at £7.99 for 13.5ml which is pretty standard and in my opinion worth the money.

Here is your daily dose of Karl, he is trying to make me feel guilty for putting him away after play time! It's working :(

As always thanks for reading and please leave a comment to let me know what you think :)

Love
