Inglot Lip Paint and Gloss duo in 17

So you guys already know I love my lip products so I thought I shall add one more to my most loved list. The Inglot lip paints are one of the most amazing things I have ever come across. It feels like a lipstick but shows up like a pigmented gloss. Its just phenomenal how good it makes you look.

The duo I have is in the number 17 which has one lip paint and one gloss. I have not tried the gloss yet but I did wear the lip paint to an event once and everyone complimented my lips.




I love the formulation of this lip paint as it makes your lips look super glossy but is never sticky.

(White light)

(Yellow light)

Pigmentation wise also this lip paint is amazing. The colour in the tub is whats on the lips. If you are like me who hates lip glosses simply because they are sticky then these are for you. I wore this for about 3 hours without eating or drinking and it stayed put. I had a drink after that and the shine did come off a little but there was a lipstick like stain left which came off after dinner. So this is not a long wearing lip product but that is with any lipstick or gloss anyways ( unless they are those extremely drying lip products). 

After the stain came off I did not feel any dryness or flakyness on my lips. They were just normal so I guess its the moisture from this product that stays. I bought this from Inglot for $12.50 as it was on a 50% off sale but usually it retails for $25.

Pros : 
Glossy but not sticky
Amazing pigmentation
Does not bleed without a lip pencil
Packaging is sturdy will not open in the makeup bag
Does not show fine lines of the lips

Cons:
Pricey
Need to carry a lip brush and mirror to reapply
Can melt in the heat and get all messy
Packaging can break if fallen down with force
Low staying power

Overall I personally love this product. I would recommend going in store and checking them out. Im sure if you try one you will go back for more.

Ps: any product with a red dot sticker on it is usually 50% off in the store.

If you have tried the lip paints let me know what you think of it

Weekend haul

Hey guys,

Sorry for being away for a long time now, was juggling work and home and hardly found time for myself. So I thought why not go shopping and treat myself. These items were bought with my own money and I absolutely love them!


I bought Mac's Blush in Blunt which is a dark brown contour colour. I had heard very good things about this and when I went into the Mac store in Australia a few months ago they didn't even know this shade existed. So when I saw it in store yesterday I caved in and bought it.

The next two things are from Inglot. The first one is a cream blush in 83 and the second one is a lip paint in 64.


I have been loving cream blushes for the winter and I hardly have any so I bought this. It is a pretty peachy pink and looks very natural when on.

The next thing is this lip paint in number 64. Now I must say, I hate lipglosses but these lip paints are the bomb! I bought this red coral shade which looks gorgeous on the lips and doesn't stick ( the best part ) I hate anything that makes my lips stick to each other. Also both these products were 50% off so that was a bargain too. ( Inglot always has some products at 50% off when they have too much stock of that item)
Hope you guys enjoyed my little haul.

Do let me know if you have tried any of these products and if you like them or not.

Love!

Rimmel London Lasting Finish Lipstick in Firecracker


Rimmel London Lasting Finish lipsticks claim long wear upto 8 hours and creamy  texture for comfortable wear. It also states it has 25% more color impact.

I would definitely agree with the color payoff and the creamy texture that moisturizes the lips. Does not make my lips feel dry and also does not feel sticky. But the lasting power is not more than 3 hours. If I blot and reapply layers of it, still lasts me no more than 4 hours. But that is with all creamy lipsticks. The more moisture the lipstick has the more likely it will rub off soon.

On my NC 42 skin it looks beautiful when paired with a neutral eye. As this is a bright color keeping the eyes simple and focusing on the lips must be kept in mind. For lighter skin tones this color would look fabulous but for darker skin it could be a little too bright. If you can carry it off well, go ahead! I definitely recommend playing with makeup and not to be scared to come out of your comfort zone. 

I think this is the brightest color I own in lipsticks and it is really gorgeous. It retails for I think $12.45 not exactly sure because I bought mine on sale at priceline. Priceline usually has about 20-30% off on Rimmel sometimes and its a great way to try these lipsticks at a lower cost.
