Winter Lips

I own a lot of lip products, I hate to admit it, but probably too many...

What am I talking about?! There's no such thing as too many lip products!

Here are a few that I've been reaching for most since it's gotten colder. Bolder lips are always a winner in the winter, they make a great contrast against paler, sun-less skin.

From left to right...

Mac Satin Lipstick in Film Noir - A very dark berry colour.

Rimmel London Lasting Finish Lipstick by Kate in 107 - I think nearly everyone and their mother owns this, but for very good reason. A matte berry/purple; the photo does not do it justice.

Rimmel London Lasting Finish Lipstick by Kate in 01 - A glossy, dark blue-red.

Diorific Haute Couture Long Wearing Lipstick in Dolce Vita - A matte orange-red.

MaxFactor Lipfinity Lasting Lip Tint in 03 - Another berry shade, more sheer than a lipstick but builds like a dream.

But what would winter be without some gorgeous lip balms to beat chapped lips away?!

Burt's Bees Lip Balm with Pink Grapefruit - Grapefruit is the best scent in the world; it's so cheerful and refreshing!

Clinique Chubby Stick in Two Ton Tomato - A sheer but fairly bright red. If I could buy one of these in every colour I would *sigh*.

Also... Isn't the fake snow in Plymouth so pretty? It hasn't snowed here in over 150 years, how depressing!

These are a Few of my Favourite Things...


The candle (lemon scented - Next) makes everything look so much prettier.

The lipstick above is Christian Dior - Diorific Haute Couture Long Wearing Lipstick in Dolce Vita. It is without a doubt, the nicest lipstick I've ever used.

Now, honestly, my photos still aren't great. I put that down having a camera that is 7 years old! (Excuses, excuses.) But I think they're getting better! Putting the candle in the background was just for the light at first, because my camera flash is broken, but it came out rather festive!

But I'm not saying the "C" word... Not yet.
