Hot pink lipstitcks! - Swatches included

Hot pink lipsticks

 These are a few of my personal favourites for hot pink lips! 

Rimmel Pink Gossip lipstick
Pink Gossip (#110) is a lighter hot pink, with a coral undertone. This is my go-to for summer pinks!



Loreal- Audacious Amazon's Pout lipstick

Deep, blue based hot pink. Not matte, but not shimmery, quite a cream finish.


Revlon Sweetheart Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain

One of my more wearable hot pinks. Really nice wear, I love these balm stains in general, but this hot pink is lovely!










Australis Kiss me quick lip liner

 A perfect lip liner for all of my hot pink lipstitcks. I recommend this lip liner for really any HOT pink colour, it blends and wears lovely on the lips, I really recommend these liners for any of my favourites.




















I love wearing hot pink lips with a wing liner for a night out, or for day, I normally pair it with a bronze/shimmery eye.

What are your favourites? Leave them below for me to check out!

Maybelline Colour Tattoo Swatches and Review- Australia




 So I know I'm super late, but here are some swatches of these colour tattoo's. 

Just to summarize first though, I LOVE them all!

L-R: Bad to the Bronze; Tough as Taupe; Audacious Asphalt; Pomegranate Punk; Tenacious Teal
Cost:
These are around $14 here in Australia, which is cheap anyway, but buy them when they're on sale, I bought MOST of these for $8-9 AUD which is so cheap!

Application: 
Only Audacious Asphalt is slightly patchy, but with these, the trick is to start with a small amount and build up layers for more pigmentation. They last a long time on the eyes and do not crease, on my anyway.

Go out and get them!

Swatches: 
L-R: Bad to the bronze; Tough as Taupe; Audacious Asphalt
Love all of these shades, Bad to the bronze is one of my all time favourites!

L-R: Pomegranate Punk; Tenacious Teal
Pomegranate Punk is my favorite of all the colour tattoos to wear alone with mascata for the
easiest eye look.

Too Faced Boudoir Eyes Swatches and Review




I just got this palette in the mail from beautybay.com
I couldn't get onto the Beauty Bay website today as their website was down, so I forgot how much it cost but I believe it was around $40 AUD.

I have another Too Faced palette so I had high hopes for this palette as well. 
They didn't let me down, this is one beautiful eyeshadow palette.

It also comes with a little pamphlet of how to's for different eye looks which is super handy.

Here are the swatches:
Too Faced Boudoir Eyes Palette 

Top row: In the buff;Fuzzy Handcuffs;Voulez-Vous
Middle row: Satin Sheets; Sugar walls; Garter Belt
Bottom row: Birthday Suit; Lap dance; French tickler



Pigmentation:
Every colour in this palette is super pigmented. There are no duds in this. I know in the Summer Eye palette there were a few colours that are very sparkly but very sheer, but in this one there are none. They are smooth and creamy and are so easy to blend.

Finish: 
Although In The Buff, Fuzzy Handcuffs and Garter Belt all look to be matte, they are more of a satin/demi-matte finish, they are not entirely matte. The other shades are all shimmery, French Tickler and Sugar Walls do contain amazing, chic glitter.

Who will it suit?
The purple colours will suit anyone but it is quite a cool toned palette so keep that in mind if you are into more warm tones.

This palette is so versatile, can go from day to night easily.

For a bride who is going to do their own makeup, pick up this palette, it would be super pretty for bridal makeup!

I believe it is limited edition so get your hands on it if you love taupes and mauvey purples like me.
Thanks for reading.
