Revlon Matte lipstick + mini haul

Hi everyone,
As a treat for myself I went out to Boots and thought that I'd buy something nice for myself. I ended up buying two lipsticks, both from the Revlon Matte collection. I've always said I've never been a 'lips' person which basically means that I tend to focus my make up on skin and eyes and tend to leave lips bare or with lip balm. However I've been trying to venture out into this area and build up my collection and confidence with statement colours.

Me: No lip colour, au natural


Below I'm wearing Revlon's 'Nude Attitude' which is such a warm nude colour. I've been looking for the perfect nude colour because I always tend to find ones which are either to pale or too brown. I think I just have found ones perfect for my lips and skin tone.






Below is a picture of me wearing the infamous GOSH Darling. This lipstick is loved by one of my favourite gurus, Lollipop26, that is why I went out to buy it before I even tried it. I realised later that it made me look anaemic and like I did not have any colour in me. It drowns me out because of its cool pink tones, where as Revlon's Nude Attitude is a honey toned nude which is perfect for

Also you may recall a few blog entries ago I came up with a 'pin up' look which a few of you liked. It made me think about the idea of wearing red and looking for the perfect red colour. This is one of the first statement red colours I've voluntarily bought. This is Revlon's Strawberry Suede


What does everyone think? I will have to make this work one way or another and I love that it has a beautiful matte finish.


Other things I bought:



Angelfish hair wax spray


Rimmel Clear Complexion Transparent powder



Cutex strengthening




Peace x
