A/W Dark Purple Lip Combo

Nivea Colour Passion Lipstick - Aubergine 13

LA Colors Lipliner - Deepest Purple

Hello lovely readers,

This is the second part of my A/W lip combos, yesterday's one was a red lip combo.

Today's one is going to be my dark purple lip combo, I bought this lipstick towards the ending of  Summer and I couldn't wait to wear it. 

Some people may be scared to wear such a bold and dark lipstick but it's not as scary as it seems. I've never tried a purple lipstick before this one so I wasn't sure what to expect but I really wanted it for A/W so I just went ahead and bought it. Are there any shades you've been scared to buy?

Before buying the lipstick, I went into the trusty Beauty Base and picked up a LA Colors lipliner in Deepest Purple, that's when my hunt for a lipstick began.

This combo lasts all day, I was really shocked to see that my lipstick was still on after having a drink and something to eat. My lips weren't dry either, I don't know if that Nivea being part of the combo helped but I didn't have to apply Vaseline during the day to keep my lips moisturised.

Again, with this bold colour, I pair it with a neutral eye, bit of contouring and that's about it, I think I'm a bit scared of clashing colours so I'll be experimenting!

What was your favourite lip combo? The red or the dark purple?

Any lip combos you can't live without?

I'd love to know guys, thanks for reading!

A/W Red Lip Combo

LA Colors Matte Lipstick - Berry Ice

MUA Lipliner - Brooding Plum

Hey everybody,

Apologies for being absent for a few days on here, college has taken over my life and the amount of work they're giving us is so depressing. As I'm in my 2nd year of college, thinking about uni, my portfolio and all that is making me so stressed so blogging's taken a backseat recently.

Anywho, I'm back to share with you my lip combos for a/w, the first one is my red lip combo.

I've been wearing it a lot this a/w and my bright red has been forgotten.

I usually where this combo with a simple neutral eye, very minimal make up because the lips are quite bold.

The lipliner keeps the lipstick on as opposed to wearing the lipstick by itself. I put the lipliner just on the edge of the lip with some vaseline first to moisturise the lips and then put the lipstick on top. 

Even when it started to rub off, my lips are still quite stained so it's not as noticeable, getting it off is not a problem, my L'Oreal micellar water does the job!

What are your favourite lip combos? 

Stayed tuned for tomorrow's lip combo, thanks for reading

LA Colors Metallic Eye Shadow - Devious - Review

Hey everyone,

This is going to be a review on an eye shadow palette I purchased from Beauty Base in Westfield.

It has 5 shades and goes from light to dark.
This palette is great for creating a blue/purple smoky eye, it's super pigmented so you have to be careful not to pack too much onto your brush or you'll have too much product on your lid.

It performs best when it is applied with a primer, the colour is much bolder when a primer is used.

I don't see the difference between the two blue shades and I think it's a waste of a shade, a darker purple could've been added instead of another blue. What do you guys think?

The great thing about this palette is that it was only a £1, which is crazy for the quality it provides.
I'm definitely going to be purchase more shades. £5 for 25 shades sounds so good and definitely not bank breaking.

I love LA Colors and their price range is unbelievable.
I'd really recommend them.

Have you tried anything from LA Colors?
Let me know!

Plum Wine

LA Colors Nail Lacquer with Hardeners - Plum Wine

Hello lovelies!

As you can see by the colour of my nails, you can tell that I want autumn to begin now. Summer's done for me, I've had a 2 month summer holiday and summer is boring me.
Fashion to make up, I can't wait for that change.

Back to the nails. I really love LA Colors' nail polishes mainly because of the wide range of colours and the fact that they have hardeners in them.
Whenever my nails feel weak, I whip out their nail polishes. My nails literally don't go anywhere, even after having them in water for a long period of time.

It took 2 coats to get this colour, if I only applied 1 coat you'd be able to see my nails through the nail polish.
One thing I hate is sitting still, waiting for nails to dry. This nail polish dries insanely quick, I'm always shocked when I check to see if they're dry and they are.

The only downside is that it doesn't last very long, maybe around 2-3 days which is annoying but I don't mind that much cause I can re-apply and it will dry super quick.

Overall, I love this nail polish, the colour and all!

What colours are you going to be using this A/W guys?
Whose looking forward to Autumn?
