Review and Swatches: Lime Crime Centrifuchsia Opaque Lipstick
Hello!
Today I'm back with a review of Lime Crime's Opaque Lipstick in Centrifuchsia. This bright, bold colour is a great alternative to the classic red statement lip.

Hello!
Have you seen the new Rimmel London Kate Moss collection of lipsticks? The colours look great, but of course my red-lipstick-addicted self made a beeline for the bright red. Today's review is on the Lasting Finish Lipstick in No.10.

Review and Swatches: Lime Crime Alchemy Collection
Hello!
I'm back! With a vengence, I must say. Beware, this is a detail and picture heavy post!
Today's review is on the Lime Crime Alchemy Collection. This came out fairly recently, and the whole set includes the Alchemy eyeshadow palette (5 duochrome eyeshadows), two opaque lipsticks (Serpentina and Poisonberry), and a mook (it's a photoshoot mini mag, basically).

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."

Paris S/S 13 Beauty Trend: Bright Red Lips
Hello!
The main lip look from the Paris S/S 13 catwalks is BRIGHT red. Sure, there were glossy corals at Moschino and hot pink at Dries Van Noten, but the most notable lip was red. Many designers opted for bright red lips in all sorts of finishes from matte at Paul Smith (matte tomato red shade) and Barbara Bui (matte blue-based red), demi-matte at Jason Wu (demi-matte berry red), satin finishes at Burberry (satin finish bright red lipstick) and Prada (bright red, satin finish) to the glossy orange-red lips at Akris.
I thought it might be useful to put up a product guide based on colour and finish.

Review: Revlon Lip Butters
Hello!
Today I'm reviewing a product the beauty blog world has been raving about these for a fair while now- Revlon Lip Butters.
There has been SO MUCH HYPE about these- I read all the reviews before they'd even come out, so naturally I wanted to see what all the fuss was about. I went out and got these when they first came out with a "buy one, get one free" deal at Priceline, so I got them for half price, effectively.
