Revlon | Super Lustrous Lipstick Rediscovery

Sometimes when you just don't wear makeup that often you kind of forget what products you own. Especially when they're in a draw out of sight and then you have a look and rediscover things, it's like shopping all over again. This happens to me a lot. Today's rediscovery is a Revlon lipstick which I got a couple of years ago maybe, I don't know my perception of time is shot. I am however pretty sure I got it from that makeup clearance place at the Downtown Westfield, R.I.P.

Makeup Clearance Company Haul

Hey

Last week while wandering aimlessly around the city I came across a Makeup Clearance store in the Downtown Westfield.  It was the first time I'd seen it there and needed to have a look.  I got the chance on Thursday which was a special day as my Student Allowance finally came so I was in the mood to spend.  So yeah I kinda went a bit crazy especially when it came to the lipsticks, I was good though in that I didn't even go near the O.P.I's.

 

 

 

From Left to Right:

 

Maybelline 985, Infra-Red

I nearly didn't buy this one. I already had the three lipsticks and the concealer but I just couldn't help myself.  I can't resist a gorgeous red, and I knew if I didn't get it I would regret it forever.  I basically bought it so I could emulate Taylor Swift.  The bullet looks very red but when applied it's more of an orangey red but is still a gorgeous colour.

 

Revlon Super Lustrous 485, Raspberry Freeze

As soon as I saw this colour I wanted to get it.  I already has a Super Lustrous lipstick which I have raved about numerous times on the blog such as here so I knew it was a good lipstick.  The name is also what got me, the same goes with nail polishes if it has a cool name I'm more likely to get it.  I just like the pairing of Raspberry and Freeze, I dunno I'm a bit of a word freak.  The colour is a demure purple I guess, all I know is that it is gorgeous.  It comes off a more pinkish purple but still purple if you get what I mean. I'll stop now.

 

Maybelline Colour Whisper 290, Strike a Rose

I've always wanted a light pink colour that was more like a gloss type thing and as soon as I swatched this I knew I had to have it.  As the name 'Colour Whisper' might suggest the colour is more like a tint/lip-gloss situation. I love it, it gives a nice pink gloss to my lips and my fear of having patchy lips is not needed as it's not that noticeable.

 

Rimmel Kate Moss 103

I was so excited when I saw they had these lipsticks. Unfortunately 107 was not there *sigh* but I did find this colour which caught my eye.  It's a pinky nude which I thought was gorgeous. I don't really have a nude so I got it of course, it will be nice to wear just on an everyday basis.

 

 

L.A. Girl Pro Conceal

As soon as I saw this I knew I had to get it.  I've heard Shannon from Shaaanxo rave about it and use in her video's so I knew I had to find some.  I got the lightest shade that was there, Natural, so hoped it would be ok.  So far I've used it once and it wasn't too dark, YUS! I've noticed it's more thicker and more yellow in colour compared to my Collection Cosmetics concealer but I really like it.  My Collection Cosmetics one is definitely more brighter so will maybe be better suited for the under eye area.

 

Hope you all enjoyed this post! I'm struggling with studying at the moment, there is just so much to study and the lecturer's have given no hints to what the questions are going to cover *sigh* lets hope my memory has improved.

My Favourie Things #3

Hey

It's the end of another week and once again it's time for the latest post of my favourite things.

Popbasic

I first learnt of Popbasic through one of Shaaanxo's videos and I really loved the concept of the website.  Each month there's a different collection to buy that consists of simple classics pieces of clothing and jewellery.

 

Popbasic has given me the opportunity to join their ambassador program which is something I am very excited about.  You'll notice there is a Popbasic badge along the side bar and if you click on the link and sign up you'll get $15 credit which is awesome.

 

Popbasic is launching the Le Breton shirt pretty soon but you can pre order it here.  The shirt is $48 and the website has free shipping which is the best thing ever! This will probably be my first purchase from Popbasic and I am so excited as you can wear the Le Breton any way you want.

 Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick in Love that Pink

I've already done a post on this lipstick which you can see here and I'm mentioning again because it's amazing.  I don't really wear lipstick to uni and on Monday I decided to be brave and wore this colour.  The colour lasted pretty much all day and only need to reapply a little.  When I put it on in the morning my lips were quite dry, I thought it might hinder the wear but it didn't which was great.

 

Lily Pebbles and Vivianna Does Makeup ITAtube Vlogs

If you read both Lily and Anna's blogs, watch their videos and follow them on twitter you'll know that they went to ITAtube in Milan.  Italy is one of my dream destinations to both visit and maybe (if I'm lucky) work in as the Italian Renaissance is my favourite period of art history.  Watching both these videos only reaffirmed my love for the country and made me crave pizza and pasta (yum!).

 

You can watch Lily's vlog here and see Anna's vlog right here.

 

Hope you all enjoyed this post. Hope you all have a great weekend and Mothers Day :D

Revlon Colourburst Matte Balm

Hey

This post is a follow up to the Revlon lipstick review as I bought two products because there was a sale and I hadn't bought anything beauty related in ages and I wanted it (does there need to be any other reason).

Like with the other lipstick I swatched about every colour there was and in the end I picked 'Shameless'.  I've seen bloggers rave about these products and I wanted to have one of my own.  Everybody lately is embracing the dark purple lip look, which I love but am not brave enough to do but I got this colour as it's purple which I love.

Some people are not a fan of it's scent which is very pepperminty but I love it. Peppermint reminds me of candy canes which reminds me of Christmas.  It's very easy to apply,  the crayon like tip makes it easier for me to apply accurately and not look like a complete mess.  For me it does not last very long with it wearing off particularly in the inner part of my bottom lip so I do need to reapply. It also helps to have your lips moisturised so it's easier to apply.

Hope you all enjoyed this post

Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick

Hey

So on Saturday the fam and I went out shopping, firstly because my sister needed to get a ball dress; the experience was a bit of an eye opener for me if you know my sister.  We did stop by Farmers which was good for me as they were having 25% off all Revlon products and I had some gift cards so it was too good and opportunity to miss.

I brought two products, I'll do a post on the other one later on.



Colour 435, Love that Pink

So I pretty much swatched every colour on my hand and out of all of them this one took my fancy the most.  I might of (yes I did) picked this colour because of the name (Love that Pink), as you've seen in my previous post I am a fan of the colour pink.  Despite the name the colour is not really pink, it's more of a red when you look at it.  When compared it to my other lip colours that are very red and pink the colour is very orange which is interesting but still looks nice.

 

The lipstick is really creamy to put on and wear, it's easy to apply and does not wear easily which is a major plus.  I am definitely going back to get more colours.

 

Hope you all enjoyed this post
