Ysl sale lipsticks

So basically I can’t be trusted around a makeup sale and since you’re reading this I’m guessing you can’t be either…

I had thought about buying 34 Rose Asarine  after I got the 32 and 33 from the spring collection but just never got around to it, so imagine how happy I was when I found it for £12.50! It’s a really pretty dark pink, perfect to dress up or down, it’s very long lasting too. ( I have a few white tee shirts that will vouch for this.)

I wasn’t going to get 108 but then the pretty shimmer kind of sold me. 108 is easy to wear and lovely to mix with other  lipsticks to achieve the shimmer effect and this was also £12.50 (Both from the John Lewis sale). I wouldn’t bother looking online as everything is sold out but pop in to a counter and you might still find they have stock.

**3 most used lipsticks this ss14**

 

 

Hello every one! how has your year been going? I’ve been missing in action for a while, my son’s been growing so quickly that I don’t want to miss a thing! so we have been quite busy with life. I definitely need to get back into the habit of posting weekly though, I actually have quite a few things to share- my new skin care regime being one of them and a few product reviews also.

So any way moving on…here are my 3 most used lipsticks this SS14!

 

 *M.A.C Amplified in Impassioned– I saw this in the airport and I was immediately drawn to it. This color is so bright it’s basically fluorescent, the perfect corally pink with a tiny hint of red. I really enjoy the formula, it lasts a long time throughout the day and feels quite rich on too.

*Elizabeth Arden ceramide in Coral vibrations – I was telling my friend today (whilst buying 2 more lipsticks…i know.) that Elizabeth Arden makeup shouldn’t be underestimated, this lipstick backs up my statement 100%. The super pigmented and thick formula actually gives the appearance of bigger lips and the color selection isn’t to shabby either. The only place I’ve been able to locate this particular shade is in the USA but if you like the color it is an almost exact match to YSL’s Rouge Volumpte 52 and I mean you can barely tell them apart!

 

*Lime Crime opaque lipstick in Babette- One thing that I never fail to fall for is any variation of a nude and this one is so deliciously pink that when it came out last year I wasted no time in acquiring it from love-makeup and this summer it’s been in my bag constantly. Not only is it gorgeous by its self, it’s a great mixer to lighten up other shades too! High quality and great price point.

 

 

So keeping it short and sweet these are the lipsticks I’ve been reaching for the most recently, what are yours?
