"The shade of lipstick you pick can make or break your entire look."
When it comes to lipstick, you can never go wrong with a Nude and a Red. I feel like these are the two colours you always need in your collection, come rain or shine. The shade of lipstick you pick can make or break your entire look.
My go to daily shade has been Bella, it is a Nude with a subtle hint of pastel Pink. This is a real feminine shade, yet something that suits every makeup look. This lipstick compliments my skin colour and my hair colour, I feel like it really is the perfect Nude for me. I am obsessed with the texture, the lipstick is velvety on the application. It leaves your lips feeling nourished, the lipstick feels so lite on the lips. It's a big fat thumbs up from me.
If I'm feeling a little brave then I reach for Evelyn. It's the perfect corally Red shade. The kind of shade that looks beautiful with a tan, yet still compliments us pale girls skin tones. I personally find it really hard to wear Red shades in the summer, in the winter it's a bit easier, I just pretend I'm rocking the dark red "vampy look" but come summer I want it to look a little softer. I also love this shade just to make me feel put together when I'm in a rush. Literally a bit of bb cream, blush and mascara and a quick swipe of this over the lip and your good to go.
I genuinely feel like this brand needs more hype. Whilst these lipsticks retail at £18.00, so a little pricey. They are worth it. I feel like they are way up there with the quality you would get from Charlotte Tilbury or Mac. Also, the packaging is gorgeous and really durable which is always a winner.

Yes I'm a sucker for a nude but when Im feeling bold I like to have red as an option. xx

DeleteI don't use red lipstick a lot but it's just good to have at least one in your collection.
