Blogmas Day 6 | Red Lips

Whats more festive than a bright red lip and a moody picture? (Probably a less moody picture).

 Red is probably my favorite lip colour to wear. It's classic, fun and good for day or night. For day 6 I'm going to share my favorite products for red lips!

No7 Precision Lips Pencil - Fire

This is one of those twisty up crayon type lip liners. I prefer these because no sharpening = no mess. Its really soft and doesn't pull on the lips to much. It's a really nice red, slightly darker than the Revlon lipstick. Sometimes i wear this alone all over the lips or, underneath the Revlon lipstick. It lasts a long time depending, obviously, on how much I'm not eating/drinking.

Revlon Matte Lipstick - Real Red

Real Red is my favorite red colour I have ever owned/swatched in a shop. Matte lips are my favorite. I find they last longest, look best on me and are usually pretty kiss proof (Cheeky!) 

Ohh.. I do love a swatch!

In the picture above I layered this over the No7 lip liner. Both products are really long lasting but together they last a lot longer! I also find putting the lip liner on first makes putting on the lipstick a lot easier.

You can find both of these here!

Have you tried either of these?
Whats your favorite red lipstick?

Blogmas Day 2 - Christmas Glitter Nails

Hello!
So I decided there was no better way of starting December than by giving my self a little Christmasy manicure. Red is the most festive colour I could think of, and whats Christmas without a dash of glitter?

I used Natural Collection's clear nail varnish as a base and top coat. I then applied 2 coats of Rimmel London's Lasting finish in Double Decker Red. I added a bit of BarryM Silver Glitter onto my ring fingers to try and create a gradient effect. (You could do it on every nail but I'm feeling lazy today). If you like glitter nails check out my previous post on them. (here!) I think these nails would be perfect for Christmas day.

You can find these nail polishes at Boots. (The Rimmel one is currently free when you buy 3 other Rimmel products)

Let me know what you think?
