Urban Decay 'Stark Naked' Comfort Matte Lipstick

Hey!


Yesterday was National Lipstick Day, so in honour of that I thought I would upload a lipstick review. I've had the Urban Decay 'Stark Naked' Comfort Matte Lipstick for many months now so it is about time!


With lipsticks, I like to have an easy nude colour that is quick and easy to put on when I am getting ready in a rush and don't have time to spend on perfecting my lipstick. After my favourite BareMinerals lipstick was discontinued, I needed to find the perfect new nude for this job. And this is what I chose. 

Revlon ColorBurst Matte Balm Review!

Hello!

Sorry I haven't posted for a while, I am currently taking my A Level exams so I have been busy revising! But anyway...

Here are my Revlon ColorBurst Matte Lip Balms. The red one I believe is 'Striking' and the purple one is 'Shameless'. I had been wanting to try them for ages so when I got them for my birthday I was really happy!

The red one is a lovely bright red perfect for sunny days! The purple one is a beautiful colour, perfect for those who want their lips to stand out. My favourite one out of the two is the purple one by far!

Overall I love these. Just as it says they are definitely a matte colour that ALWAYS stand out. They aren't drying, VERY easy to apply and are long-lasting! I only ever need to go over them when I eat a full meal and that is only a bit! Furthermore I love how the colour of the packaging is the exact copy of the lip colour so you know exactly what it looks like without taking the lid off! It is also really easy to carry around with you in your bag and simple to apply in the restaurant bathroom or whatever.

At the moment I can use them straight away without a lip liner or using a lip brush because of the point at the end of the crayons, however I am concerned this effect may weaken after using for a long time.

I am definitely pleased with Revlon for this one and wouldn't hesitate to buy more of these lip crayons! In some ways I prefer them over lipsticks.

Have you used them? What do you think? Let me know!

February Favourites!

Hey BumbleBeas,

It's that time again!

1. SEVENTEEN MIRACLE MATTE PRESSED POWDER

I have never used powder before so this was my first time and boy it didn't let me down! I will be writing a review on this soon but so far I really like it and use it daily.

2. MAYBELLINE COLOUR TATTOO -EVERLASTING NAVY

I absolutely adore this eyeshadow! I have written a review on it if you'd like to go see it but it is by far the best eyeshadow I have ever used and I'm glad I bought it.

3. RIMMEL MOISTURE RENEW LIPSTICK DARK NIGHT WATERL-OOPS!

A fantastic lipstick which my photos do no justice to. A lovely plum/purpley lipstick which for me lasted six hours before it came off. I am in love with the colour and it makes me feel confident when I wear it. A review will be coming soon!

4. ALLEGIANT BY VERONICA ROTH

The last book in the Divergent trilogy by Veronica Roth. It goes Divergent, Insurgent then Allegiant. This book made me bawl my eyes out and I would say the trilogy is one of my top favourite series of books I have ever read. Can't wait for the Divergent film to come out in April!

So that's it! Have you used any of these or read Allegiant? What did you think? What is in your February Favourites? Let me know I'd love to hear!

Shopping Haul! Swatches + First Looks

Hey BumbleBeas!

Today I went shopping with my sister and spent much more money than I was planning to. Whoops! But how on earth could I resist?

1. Bubblegum Lib Scrub from LUSH.

I have used this lip scrub before and loved it SO much that I bought more after using it for a year until a ran out. It is such a good lip scrub and well worth the £5 it costs.

2.  SEVENTEEN Miracle Matte Pressed Powder

I have never worn powder before so this is a completely new experience for me. Once I get the hang of it I will definitely write up a proper review on it after a long while of using it. It was 3 for 2 at Boots and I already had decided on SEVENTEEN foundation so I thought I may as well give it ago! Something Blogger has taught me is that it is good to try new make up products and broaden my horizons rather than just sticking to the same thing for years until they get discontinued. But this powder just looks beautiful!

 

3. Maybelline Colour Tattoo Eyeshadow: Everlasting Navy 

I have been wanting this for SUCH A LONG TIME! I have been meaning to buy color tattoo eyeshadow for months and finally I am pleased to say I have it. I tried it on briefly on one eye and I have to say I absolutely love the colour. Once I have worn it properly I promise I will write a review on it although you've probably read hundreds of them already!

4. SEVENTEEN On the Spot Foundation

Seeing as my concealer is being discontinued I needed to find something to replace it. As someone who suffers from acne and scarring, the claims of this foundation clearing up your skin in four weeks was something I just needed to see. I haven't worn it yet but once I have I am planning to write a review so look forward to that! Also, because of the tube I didn't expect to see a pump when I pulled off the lid!

5. Rimmel Moisture Renew Lipstick Dark Night Waterl-Oops!

I had been looking for a purple lipstick for a long while and after swatching many brands and shades I finally settled on this one! When I wear it properly (which I am excited to do so) I will write a full review on it. However I did try it on for a little while earlier to see what the colour was like on my lips and it looked better than I imagined. I also ate my tea and gargled some salt water after doing it and it seemed to stay pretty well which gives me very high hopes. Please note I found it highly difficult to take a photo that really showed off the purple in it so I took various photos. You'll just have to trust me on this one- it is a deep purple!

    

So that's it! I hope you liked my haul. Have you used any of these products? What do you think? Like I've said, I will be writing up reviews after a fair amount of use so look out for those!
