Whats new in my makeup collection?

So there is nothing better in life (for me anyway) then buying new make-up. It's become a very bad and expensive addiction for me since the age of 18 and studying make-up in college. The only difference is now I like to splurge on what I would class as "normal" make-up opposed to the face paints and fake blood I used to buy back in the special effects days!

Anyway I'm starting to blab so lets get into my new purchases!

I picked up three of the NYX cosmetics Lip Lingerie Liquid lipsticks in the following shades:

(from left to right) Embellishment, Teddy and Exotic.

These were £6.50 each from Boots.

I have seen many Instagrammers showcasing these and I just had to get my hands on some of the shades.

I will be doing a swatch an review post on these so keep a look out!

Following my lipstick obsession I noticed Soap and Glory have released and repackaged an entire new range of the Sexy Mother Pucker Lipsticks so I decided to try one out and picked the colour Cinnamon Beige which is a brown nude. These are currently retailing at £9.00 in Boots which seems a little pricey for a drug store brand but they always have offers on!

To be honest I only purchased this because I am a sucker for packaging! 

So again for purely for packaging reasons which really pains me to admit! I purchased the Rimmel London Sculpting Palette by Kate in the shade #003 which is a combo of  highlighter, shading powder and a blush. The product is beautiful and well worth the price of £6.99 in Boots

Futhermore I was asked by Maybelline to be apart of the Maybelline Squad, of course I said yes and a few weeks later I was sent an amazing package filled with goodies such as the entire range of their Vivid Matte Lipsticks, the Baby Lips Moisturising lip gloss and a few other products which are yet to be released!

Let me know if you would like a blog post on all the products I received including swatches!

Rimmel Provocalips Review

So i picked up a couple of the Rimmel Provocalips because quite frankly i needed cheering up after a bad week and what better than a lipstick purchase! I picked up the shades "730 Make your move" (above right) & "310 Little Minx" (above left) These were £6.99 each in Tesco.

So here is what Rimmel say about the Provocalips:

• Kiss-Proof, Transfer Proof, Trouble Proof. Up to 16 hours of lip liberation. Weightless Non drying colour for endless comfort!

Now as a lipstick lover this sounded like music to my ears so i had to try them out and see if what they said was really true!

So above i have both shades on my lips! My favourite of the two is probably "Make your move" (Top) as its a neutral pink shade and something i would wear daily, so i decided to test this one first.

When applying you use step one which is the colour and then leave this for 60 seconds with your lips apart, then you apply step two which locks and shines the lip.

On first impressions i found the colour part quite liquidy so you have to apply it carefully otherwise you look like you have just come back in from a night out! But after applying the step two i was quite amazed at how it transformed the lip gloss, it felt soft and moisturizing but as if it wasn't going to budge!

• So firstly i tested the kiss proof! & yeap it really was kiss proof and did not budge!
  • After eating a sandwich and a roast dinner the lipstick was still there perfectly!
  •  12 hours later my lipstick was still on and looked pretty good, maybe not as shiny but i would say that's pretty good going, i didn't test it for 16 hours but i have no doubt in my mind it still would be there!

 Overall a fantastic product and i will be buying all the shades! what do you think if you have tried the Rimmel provocalips?
