My Top 5 Purple Lip Colours

Hi guys ! Happy Tuesday . Hope you are having a great week so far. 


Today I'm sharing my Top 5 Purple / Berry toned lip colours that I think is perfect for Valentines day. I prefer more of a purple or pink lip personally on myself, but I will be sharing my favourite red lip colours too. So keep an eye out for the other posts later this week. 



Revlon ColorBurst Lip Butter Gumdrop 
I have to admit - on this lipbutter I'm on my 8th tube of this colour since discovering this little magical tube of lipbutter ( I do own a few other colours too ... But this is by far my favourite ) This is a gorgeous light purple colour that does have a sparkle . The colour doesn't last hours but it does last a good 3/4 hours on me, and the best part it's SUPER moisturising. It does fade nice and evenly , which is a huge bonus too especially with eating and drinking. This is one of those colours I have a open one in every bag , all downside though, if it gets super hot , it does melt a little. But nothing a lip brush can't fix. 

Colorpop Lippystix Brills
I've mentioned this colour in my Top 5 Colorpop post HERE , and this is still one of the most gorgeous purples I own. The colour does transfer (which means you might want to keep kissing until later the evening... ) but the colour is so gorgeous and yes ... Smelling like cupcakes is a HUGE bonus. I know Colorpop isn't available super easily to anyone, but this colour is really one that should be on your wish list if you love a purple lip. 

Colorpop Ultra Matte Lychee
The colorpop Ultra Matte's have an impressive formula , they are kiss proof and last all day . (I have to remove this lip colour at night with some make-up remover ) . I know a few people (Especially you Ghila ) want to know from my last post how comfortable they are - I have super sensitive extremely dry lips (and when I have an allergy flare up, they swell really badly too) , and with a good lip exfoliate , and lip balm, these don't irritate my lips at all.  I can wear it all day without my lips feeling itchy or dry . 

Essence Sheer & Shine Lipstick in Sparkling Miracle
I will be reviewing three colours of this range soon, but this is one of my favourites. Yes, it's not super pigmented , but it gives your lips a nice wash of colour , and looks super girly and kissable . And it's nice and hydrating. The colour doesn't last too long though , about an hour or two at most . but then again it's super affordable and easy to pop into your bag. 

Maybelline Baby Lips Dr Rescue Berry Soft
I love the Maybelline Baby Lips Dr Rescue range. While I wasn't a big fan of the normal baby lips , I love most colours of the Dr Rescue range. These are nice and hydrating, perfect for a casaul date night or more natural make-up look - but gives a gorgeous wash of colour. It's really a "Your lips but better" colour . And yes , the colour won't last that long, but this can easily be applied without the need of a mirror to be precise. 

So that's a round up of my Top 5 Purple Lip Colours. Stay tuned on Thursday for my Top 5 Pink Lip colours.

  4. oh wow this is such a nice fun and interesting type of post, i'd like to see more of them. i admire your "courage" with lipstick in experimenting and trying colors and different things. i am so boring on this side, mainly have neutrals and some reds. i used to have a purple liquid once, way before the trend was on, but i hated it and never had the gut to wear it properly. now i wish i did have something like this but i'm not sure which color and shade i should pick and if it would actually look good on me. i always am afraid to look clowny..so, PLEASE show us a swatch pic of this bold purple in the middle!!!!

Catrice ICONails Gel Lacquer Review and Wear Test

Hi guys. Happy Monday. How was your weekend ?? Today I will be sharing my review on the Catrice ICONails Gel Lacquer . I have worn this quite a few times since buying the product - so I have a pretty good idea how it preforms. The colour I got was a typical Lynette colour - The Catrice ICONails Gel Lacquer in Donut Worry be Happy. This is such a gorgeous fun pink colour. The range does have quite a few colour options - and what I do like about the range is that no top coat is needed. So while I always top coat polish or gel polishes - I didn't when I tested this out. Since I did mention I have worn it quite a few times - I always wore it without top coat. The polish dries amazingly fast - and is dry enough to not make dent marks on it within 20 minutes. Which I think is pretty impressive for a polish without top coat. The brush is on the thicker side - making the polish super easy to apply. I prefer nailpolish brushes like this since it's mostly just one swipe on each ...

CATRICE TREATMENTS SERUM REVIEW

Hi guys! Happy Wednesday. How was your week? I totally lost a day with the public holidays and Easter Weekend threw into the mix ... I was pretty convinced today was actually Tuesday. As I mentioned in my New on my Beauty Desk post in February - I got a few Catrice serums from their new range to try out. In total I picked up the Hydro serum as well - so today I will give you a rundown on the three serums I chose from the range to my routine.  Overall - I have a pretty good idea of which ones I love - which ones are good and which ones I'm not 100% sold on.  CATRICE HYDRO PLUMPING SERUM  This serum contains 1.5 %  hyaluronic acid and panthenol to plumps up the skin as well as have a soothing effect on the skin. Hyaluronic acid is well known to hydrate the skin and absorbs easily into the skin super quickly. I love using Hyaluronic Acid in the morning before applying make-up as it gives me a hydrated base to work with. Honestly, while I did enjoy using this serum - I d...
