Recent Activity....In case you missed it!

Hello!

This is a bit of a summary post, in case you missed out on some earlier posts. I realised I've been posting a lot (a good thing) but that may mean that some of you might miss out on posts as they get pushed back to other pages. So here it is, a full page of links to my more recent work.

Review and Swatches: Lime Crime Opaque Lipstick in Glamour 101

Hello!

Following on from my post on the Candy Apple Carousel Gloss, I thought I'd better show you what Lime Crime's Glamour 101 looks like without Candy Apple layered on top of it.

Review and Swatches: Lime Crime Carousel Gloss in Candy Apple

Hello!

Do you love the look of brilliantly red, shiny, sparkly lips? I do. I've loved the look of this gloss ever since I saw swatches of it online and I've waited for what feels like forever to get my hands on this. It's Lime Crime's Carousel Gloss in Candy Apple. It's a red glitter lipgloss.

Review and Swatches: Urban Decay Super-Saturated High Gloss Lip Color

Hello!

I'd just been wishing I had a red as glossy lip colour like the ones I'd seen on some of the Paris S/S 13 catwalks and bam! this arrives in the mail. Perfect timing! Today I'm reviewing Urban Decay's Super-Saturated High Gloss Lip Color in F-Bomb. This product is accurately described by Urban Decay as having a formula which "delivers all the opaque, saturated, high-impact color of your favorite lipstick and an arresting high-gloss finish in one chubby pencil."
