Current Top 5 Favourite Lipsticks

Image
As I've done so many nail posts in a row, I thought I'd shake things up a bit and talk about something else. So what is my other obsession apart from Nail Polish? Lipstick! Although to be honest lipstick is actually my longest running love, as I've always had a soft spot for it since being an iddly biddy girly. As I haven't done a favourites for so long I thought I'd let you know which lipsticks are getting my attention at the moment. Mac's Jubilee has been one of my favourites for a while as it's so easy to wear and goes with everything.

I usually get a couple of hours wear out of it. I think this would suit all skin tones, thus making it a great staple for anyones collection. Mac's Viva Glam Gaga 2 is one that I got towards the end of las...

I'm always on the look out for new products to try so please let me know if you can recommend anything or if you want me to try something and review it for you. Eyeshadow Mac- Naked Lunch . I really love to use this all over the lid, as a highlight or on the inner corner. It's a beautiful shimmery shade and goes with most other colours. Mac- All that Glitters . This is a lovely golden shimmery shade and I tend to use this all over the lid or in the outside of the lid. It goes particularly well with all the other shadows shown in the pallet. Mac-Sketch . This is a beautiful deep plum shade with some shimmer. It's a great shade to use in the crease or in the outer v. Stila-Jezebel . This is a lovely coppery, peachy bronze colour. I love the cosistency...
