Nars Blush


Deep Throat
A pink toned blush which easily blends and can be built up. I do think it's your standard blusher and there must be many dupes out there for it if you're not willing to spend the money on this one, but it's still a really pretty colour and one of NARS' most popular shade of blush.




Orgasm
A peachy-pink colour with a gold shimmer in it. At the moment this is my favourite blusher, it doesn't matter what eye makeup or lip colour I have on, to me this completes every look. I wear it in the day, in the night, ALL THE TIME! Its so worth the money because its just not your average blusher, I've never seen a blusher that looks like this!


The next blush I want to buy is a cream one called 'Cactus Flower'.


  • The packaging is sleek and black with a rubbery texture.
  • One of the only downsides to NARS products is the actual packaging. It collects up makeup and eventually becomes covered in glitter.
  • The blushes are £21.00 each.

Review of the 8 lipsticks I bought last month

So I'm going to review the 8 lipsticks I bought last month.



1. RIMMEL LONDON - Moisture Renew Lipstick in 'Funtime Fuchsia' (320) £6.29
I love this first lipstick, it's such a bright amplified pink and is very similar to my 'Girl About Town' from MAC. Ive mostly worn it on nights out and it seems to last a long time. I love.

2. RIMMEL LONDON - Lasting Finish Lipstick in 'Sugar Plum' (980) £4.99
Not that much to say about this lipstick, its a shimmering pink which personally I find hard to have an occasion to wear for. I think its not 'crazy' enough for a night lip, but definitely too much for the day. Mixed feelings.

3. REVLON - Super Lustrous Lipstick in 'Mauve It Over' (003) £7.49
I like this nude lipstick because when I have heavy eye makeup on I like to tone down the lips and this is perfect for that. I also like to use this lipstick as an everyday lipstick when I'm not trying to make an effort with my makeup. Only downside is when I have dry lips its doesn't look so good, so I have to moisturise my lips loads before wearing it. I like.

4. NATURAL COLLECTION - Moisture Shine Lipstick in 'Rasberry' £1.99
For the price of this lipstick it's such good quality, although the lid does occasionally fall off. The lipstick itself is very pigmented and the colour is true to its name a raspberry pink. I like.


5. TOPSHOP - Lips in 'Innocent' £8.00
This lipstick is really nice and creamy. It reminds me of the texture of MAC lipsticks and has made me want to try some more of the Topshop lipsticks (as this is my first one). The colour wears away well throughout the day. I love.

6. BARRY M - Lip Paint in 'Touch Of Magic' £4.49
I only bought this lipstick because I was so intrigued by the green 'magic' lipstick that turns pink. When I apply it to my lips, yes it does turn pink but I think it turns the same shade of pink on everyone who apples this lipstick, so I don't think it 'turns the colour depending on the alkali levels on your lips'. This lipstick is also really hard to get off and leaves a bit of a stain when removed. Mixed feelings.

7. NYX - Soft Matte Lip Cream in 'Antwerp' £5.50
I bought this lip cream because I had heard a lot about it on youtube, so I wanted to try it out. I found the best way to wear it was to apply a coat, leave it to dry and then add another coat. I do like this lip cream, but I feel it dries out my lips big time. Mixed feelings.

8. RIMMEL LONDON - 1000 Kisses Lip Tint in 'Perpetual Plum' (300) £6.99
I was really not pleased with this lip tint. The felt tip side seeped into the cracks in my lips which is not a good look lol. Then when I added the glossy side and left it, it came off really quickly. I don't like.
