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

Charlotte Tilbury Glastonberry

Hey there,

On this blog, there has a been a lot of posts about MAC lipsticks. It is only when I looked back over all my posts that I really realised this. I think this is what happens when your MAC collection is filled with 47 lipsticks #sorrynotsorry.

Today's post isn't about of my many MAC lipsticks. Today's post is about the Charlotte Tilbury Matte Revolution Lipstick in the shade Glastonberry.

I picked this lipstick to wear to see the band Queen because I felt it fit in well with the rock chick image. Plus the name itself Glastonberry, has big connotations to the massive music festival which takes place in the UK every summer.

Anyway onto the lipstick itself... This shade can look intimidating in the bullet because it is a rather deep shade but on the lips I think you see it isn't too scary. I'd call this a deep red berry shade that is just perfect for a vampy wintery look.

The formula of the Charlotte Tilbury Lipsticks is something special too. The original K.I.S.S.I.N.G lipsticks are amazing and these are great too. They apply nicely and feel a little creamy on the lips but they "set" to a matte finish. 

Have you tried this lipstick? What did you think?

Let me know in the comments.

Lots of Love,

Clare
