Rockalily Lipstick In ZOMG!

So, i have a confession to make. Im not a regular lipstick user, i admit it. But, this lipstick. I LOVE! Like extreme love. 
Ive herd of this brand before, but i always thought i would never ever suit the beautiful reds and the daring pinks, im very pale, and my lips are not the thickest. After the ZOMG! blogger bash on Monday i tried this shade on and kept it on for the whole night, i was amazed at how beautiful and rich the colour was, and how the shade suited my skin colour and my lips. 
Ive tried and tested the other high street brands of reds and pinks and they are just not right, they either make my lips dry as anything or they make my lips look even thinner. Which i feel defiantly put me off trying darker shades, i just couldn't find the right one, the one i can rely on to make my lips soft, conditioned and not to bleed all over my teeth. UNTIL, this little baby popped along.
The packaging is stylishly retro, and takes the rockabilly theme to a whole new level. Its perfect handbag size and as soon as you whip it out, you know you look cool.

On the website, it gives a small description of the shade as 'a creamy matte fuchsia shade'. The lipstick smells Divine, i want to say a vanilla smell, but im not sure. It feels so conditioning on my lips, like im putting lip balm on instead of a lipstick, its highly pigmented and only takes a quick sweep to give me the desired colour.

The brand Rockalily was made by ReeRee, sick of trying to find a lipstick that suited her, she decided to take matters into her own hands and create lipsticks that will suit all skin types and that is the highest of quality. Some lipsticks are blue based, for pale skins, and some orange based ideal for olive and darker skin types.
This colour is beautiful, and looks really nice with a day look, or all out for a evening look. I love this whole brand too, its different and edgy and unlike anything ive seen before. I am in love, its such a good feeling to find something you love, especially since ive been looking for a lipstick that suits me for what feels like a lifetime!
You can buy this lipstick and many more for £14 from http://www.rockalily.com
In my personal opinion, i love it, and my whole outlook on red and pink lipsticks has defiantly changed, for the better. My next one will defiantly be a red, im torn between Rockette Red and Sailors Beware, what do you think?

Thanks for reading, and in the words of Rockalily 'Lifes too short not to wear lipstick!'

ZOMG! Blogger Bash!

So, if all you guys hadnt already guessed or seen, my sister is the writer of The London Lipgloss, an amazing blog which gave me inspiration to start my own blog. Shes teamed up with Rockalily Lipstick to create her own shade in 'ZOMG!'. Its a dark pink shade and looks amazing on, (one of the only dark lipsticks that suits me). I was lucky enough to be invited to the blogger bash they held for all the amazing bloggers to get together and to have a massive party to celebrate the brand and this new lipstick.
I stupidly got too excited in the heat of the moment and forgot to take many pictures, so sorry about that guys! The theme was definatly 50's glamour, there were vintage hair and make up artists, make your own cupcake, design your own cards, pop up photo shoots and much more. There were even burlesque dancers (which was a first for me!). I had such a good evening and met so many new people. I got talking to Fran, who writes http://insertsuitabletitle.wordpress.com/ and she was so lovely! There were raffle prizes and all of the prizes were amazing, Fran next to me won a stunning necklace!
Had a awsome night and a big congratualtions to my sister and Rockalily for a amazing shade! I will be purchasing!
Lots of love.

MUA Out There! Lip Plumping Gloss!

I love a good lipgloss. Especially if its plumping because i dont have the plumpest of lips (i wish i did!) so anything thats going to help the situation is always good in my books. A couple years ago a trotted off to the local boots and purchased a tube of the Sexy Mother Pucker. The tingling and stining in this was just too much, and i found the formula to be so thick and gloopy and sticky it put me off glosses for a while (dont get me wrong, most of my friends love it, just my personal choice) so when i got these and saw they were lip plumping i thought that they would be the same problem as the soap and glory one. However, the tingle in this is a comfortable tingle, and i was pleasntly suprised.
Top to bottom- Nude, Peach Shimmer and Candy Pink.
        Without Flash- L-R- Candy Pink, Nude And Peach Shimmer.

With Flash L-R- Pink Candy, Nude and Peach Shimmer.

I actully love all of the colours, the peach shimmer will be amazing in summer! And for the bargin price of £2 per lip gloss, can you really go wrong?
You can buy these and more colours from Superdrug.

Thanks!

FashionistA Double-Take Long Wear Lipstick Haul!

I have thin-ish lips, and i dont suit dark or bright red lipsticks, so i explained this to my sister and asked for a nude lipstick for christmas, she took it on board and got me 3 insted! I was chuffed as every colour she got me was perfect. I love these lipsticks because you can layer them up and make them true to the colour in the stick, or just cover lips lightly for a subtle colour.
                             The colours she got me was Baby Doll Pink, Buff and Cinnamon.
Left to right : Baby Doll Pink, Buff and Cinnamon.

These lipsticks smell amazing and look and feel really conditioning, and as you can see from the picture they look conditioning aswell. I have swiped this over my arm quiet thickly so this will be the colour you will get if you put alot on, but i like to just put a little bit on for a subtle dash of colour. 

You can buy these and more colours from Superdrug for £7 each.
Thanks!
