Korres Raspberry Liquid Lipstick - Shade 13, Soft Pink - Swatched!

This liquid lipstick is a gorgeous muted pink, with a slightly coral undertone - although I thought, judging by the sticker at the end of the box, that it would be more of a baby pink. I'm glad it's not though as I adore the colour and also that it can be built up to be a slightly stronger shade.

It's a perfect hybrid between a lipstick and a lip gloss as it has more staying power than your average lipgloss, whilst keeping the fantastic shine that you come to expect from a gloss. It's also not sticky like a gloss, in fact it has a beautiful, silky feel to it that I like very much. I also feel that it is fairly moisturising on my lips compared to a gloss.

I love that there is a small amount of sparkle running through the liquid lipstick, but I love even more that I can't feel any gritty texture on my lips because of it. I can't stand feeling like I have bits of crap on my lips when wearing lip products with a chunkier shimmer running through it.

I get about 2-3 hours wear with it, without excessive eating/drinking which I think is quite good, considering the gloss finish, and the fact that it isn't a bright or dark shade that usually last a little longer, due to the nature of their more pigmented hues.

Available from various outlets such as Zuneta and Bath & Unwind for around £15.

Have you tried a liquid lipstick before?

No flash, dull day.

Accessorize To Launch Dazzling Cosmetics Range!

Accessorize are expanding their treasure trove of high street fashion accessories on include cosmetics and I have to say that I am very excited about this news. The new range of beauty must-haves consists of five unique themes to choose from and as you can see below, they look gorgeous.

Release your inner rebel with edgy ‘Rock Star’

Stand out from the crowd with ‘Exotic Brights’

Go cute and classic by opting for ‘With Love’

If you’re style is playful glamour then go for ‘Illusion’

Or romanticise yourself with the ‘Je t’aime’ collection

They are due to launch at the end of September and one of the best things is that nothing I have seen costs more than £10, with most around the £5 mark. I’ll be sure to swatch when I receive mine.

Victoria Beckhams 'Must Have Lip Glosses'

According to Victoria Beckham on Twitter.com 1 hour ago, these 2 lip glosses are apparently must haves in your makeup bags.

They are Burberry Lip Glow glosses No. 9 and No. 10 and below are sample images taken from the Burberry website to show you what they look like, but first the blurb from the Harrods website:

"Plump, moisturise and add a hint of fresh colour with Burberry Lip Glow. This natural lip gloss has a ceramide complex formula that fills fine lines from within, leaving lips supple, and glowing with natural highlights.

• Natural lip gloss
• Creamy, adherent texture
• Light oils and spherical powders give fluidity and comfort
• Reflects light to create illusion of plumper, fuller lips
• Ceramide complex recreates the intercellular cement
• Hydrating formula keeps lips replenished
• Fine lines are filled from within
• Foam tip applicator
• 6ml"

No. 9 (Nude Beige)

No. 10 (Nutmeg)

I think I might have to get my paws on these as they look lurrrvley from the pictures above, and if they're good enough for VB then they're good enough for little old me haha. If you want to purchase one for yourself they retail at £18 each (haven't found anywhere cheaper as they appear to be sold exclusively at Harrods and on the official Burberry website), and here are the all important links.

Red lips at the ready!

Just like the little black dress, red lips have never really gone away but right now they're coming back with a vengeance. The best thing is that pretty much anybody can get away with them; but you do need to make sure that you get the right shade and the right finish for you. From sheer to opaque and matte to glossy, there is something for everybody if you just spend a little time finding out what works best for you!

It’s not an everyday look, and can take a bit more work to apply properly but it can work wonders for you both in terms of the look it gives you and also how it makes you feel. Wearing red lipstick makes me feel confident, like I can take on the world (and win).

I currently love MAC Lipglass in Russian Red; it’s a full on glossy, glamorous red. I recommend you check it out.
