Chanel Boy

Hello,

Sometimes, once in a blue moon, you find something you can't live without that you can buy from a blog sale. In previous blog sale purchases, I have picked up perfumes for super reduced prices and one of the best finds was a hardly used 50ml bottle of Estee Lauder Advance Night Repair for around £20 (it retails for over double that in stores).

However, I think my favourite purchase from a blog sale is a lipstick, Chanel Boy.

This lipstick is a perfect lipstick which can be paired with many a beauty look, from a simple every day look to a deep smokey eye this lipstick can do no wrong.

I first was introduced to this lipstick after watching Fleur De Force videos. For many years, she has mentioned this lipstick as one of her favourite PLUS I believe it was this lipstick which she picked for her wedding look.

The colour of this lipstick is a pink, which on me is a little darker than my natural lip colour (but only a tad). I can definitely see why a lot of people (including FDF) pick this as a bridal lipstick because it is such as sophisticated lip colour.that can easily be retouched without a mirror.

Chanel Boy is from the Rouge Coco Shine range. From experience this range has medium pigment but feels very balmy on the lips. Think a MAC Lustre Finish for pigmentation but with more of a Revlon Lip Butter balmy feel to it if that makes sense.

I'm so glad I found this in a blog sale and I definitely think that once I finish this, I shall definitely be repurchasing. The lipstick is £25 but it's Chanel so that's ok right?

Lots of Love,

Clare

30 Days 30 Lipsticks Day #10 Revlon Berry Couture

Hello there,

It's day 10 and I'm still going, are you impressed? I am.

Today's lipstick is a lovely Revlon, which I recently picked up on a whim but I really love it. It is 

Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick Berry Couture.

                                

Classic Duckface right there. Berry Couture is a pinky purple shade which isn't too offensive or scary, perfect for the girl who is unsure whether she can rock a purple or bright pink lip. 

The finish of this lipstick is creamy if a little sheer and lasts a couple of hours on the lips. Think MAC Amplified Creme finish and you've got the idea. 

Do you own this lipstick? What do you think of it?

Love

30 Days 30 Lipsticks Day #9 Chanel Rouge Coco Shine in Romance

Hello there,

Today's lipstick comes a little late in the day but it is still the 9th so I'm alright. The lipstick is a snazzy one, which I bought from a blog sale way back when I started blogging and it's a Chanel Lipstick (look at me being all snazzy).

The Rouge Coco Shine lipsticks are very balmy and glossy. I think I'd liken them to Revlon Lip Butters. I have to say I actually prefer Revlon Lip Butters... controversial I know.

The colour pay off of this lipstick is a very muted. I would say a little bridal in appearance. For the price of a Chanel Lipstick, I would like to have a bit more pigmentation for my bucks..

What do you think of this lipstick?

Love,

C
