Top Three Lipsticks // Drugstore (ish) //

Hello darlings..

Since i enjoyed writing my last top three i thought i'd continue with my 'top three' series, today would be lipsticks! Looking back at the pictures i realized how similar colours they are! I apologize for that, but i guess i do have a favourite shade. I find these rosy nudes suit my skin tone the best, the work for almost every look and every season. I have included a matte, satin and creme texture lipstick. 
Mac's 'Velvet Teddy': £16.50. I'm cheating with this lipstick, its not technically drugstore (i'm sorry) but it is one of my all time favoruites. Its the very famous 'Velvet Teddy', its a  a brownish nude tone, i've heard people describe it as pink toned but i don't think it has any pink in, it has quite warm undertones. It is a matte but i find it very creamy on the lips, but as the day goes on it turns matte on the lips. 

Rimmel' Kate '08': £5.49. This is a lovely nude brown, very 90's.  I love the smell of this one, it smells like vanilla, which is always good in my books! I haven't got many of the Kate Moss lipsticks but i love this one so much i will have to look out for some more! 
Max Factor 'Rosewood' £ 7.99. This is one of my favourite all round shades, its a beautiful brownish pink, its got a little purple to it too. Its quite a warm shade perfect for Winter as well a Summer. Its very moisturizing, very creamy, its definitely not a matte its more stain finish, It its very pigmented with no shimmer or patchiness to it. I think this would be a great first lipstick for someone. 

I'd love to know have you tried nay of these?

My Top Three Current Concealers // Drugstore

Hello darlings.

Today's post is just a quick one about my current top three concealers. I thought it would be fun to make a little series of my current top three products. I'd love to know if you guys would like that? I've done it in price order, cheapest to dearest, i hope you find this useful. 
Collection Lasting Perfection £4.19. Who doesn't have this concealer? Everyone and their mother has tried this product. It has a very liquid texture, blends beautifully with both fingers, sponge or brush. I find this is great for dark circles and acne, its my go to concealer for covering my spots, as it provides a medium to full coverage. Out of all three concealers this is the longest lasting, it does exactly as it says on the tin. The only con is the colour range, its doesn't over much for dark skinned girls as the darkest shade is't dark at all. 

Rimmel True Match £5.99. The lightest shade is the perfect colour match for my skin similar to the Collection concealer the shade range isn't great. I love the applicator on this product, i know not everyone gets on with the plastic applicator and prefer a doefer one. But i find the plastic one draws the concealer on to the skin perfectly. I find this product is much better for dark circles and highlighting rather than covering spots. I love that this is a highlighting product as lets be honest as a new mum i need a little help under the eyes!! No glitter in this product, which is a bonus. Who wants glittery under eyes. The texture is creamy and very thin, which is great as it doesn't leave you looking cakey.  

Maybelline Age Rewind £8.99. Now that its coming up to Summer i'm whipping this bad boy out as the lightest shade is a little too dark for me in the Winter. This again similar to the Rimmel concealer i wouldn't use this to cover up spots, this is specifically designed to go under your eyes. I love the applicator, the sponge tip is a big win for me but i know a lot of people who don't like it and think its unhygienic but at the end of the day i'm the only one who is using it so its not an issue. It blends beautiful applies a very thin layer and disappears into the skin and makes your skin look gorgeous. 

I'd love to know have you tried any of these three products?
