Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain

I'm such a bad blogger. Between it being very busy with friends for summer and decorating my rooms my little corner of the Internet has been rather abandoned! But today is my first free day of summer so far and I'm going to pre-write a few posts to try and keep on top of things.

I've had this less than two weeks and I cannot stop using this! I seriously really like this and will be buying more colours as soon as they come back into stock!

 The packaging is fine, it does the job. I like the applicator as you can easily apply this without a mirror, but because it's pointed you can really outline and shape your lips if you feel like it.

I won't compare this the the Revlon Lip Butters as they are just totally different, the only thing I will say is that it is 100% justifiable to own colours from both products! I also won't compare this to the Clinique Chubby Sticks as I have never used them ( not for lack of wanting)

I love how hydrating this is, if find that most balm type products have a really bad lasting power but this smashes the stereotype which is wonderful. I wouldn't say the stain lasts a really long time, however it doesn't fair spectacularly well with food and drink. I really like this and intend to but a couple more whilst they are still on an the introductory offer of £6, normally £8, so a little saving!

Collection 2000 Cream Puff

So this is a product that I had basically heard nothing about, I hadn't even taken any notice of it instore. That is until it popped up on this blog, I can't find the exact post but basically it's meant to be moisturising and very pretty so I thought I would give it a go.

I'm so glad that I bought this! It only costs £2.99 so  it doesn't break the bank. It's a really obscure product, but it a good way! It's like a lovely cream and it just feels very pleasant to wear. It's very light and glides on like a dream. I have the colour Fairycake and the colour is actually a really nice pink, just a little brighter than in the tube.

I apologise but I seem to have forgotten to take a swatch picture of this, but you could always try one on your hand next time you near a Collection 2000 counter. I fully recommend buying this, it can be worn on it's own or with another lipstick so add a bit more colour. Oh! And the best thing of all? It smells like cake!

Have you tried this? Let me know!

Body Shop Love Gloss

Body Shop are really famous for the Body Butters ( of which I own about ten), however the makeup really isn't spoken about very much. I had my Makeup done there (for free!) and at the time the deal was buy any two makeup items and receive a  free Mascara ( worth £10), so I buckled and chose this gloss and a foundation brush. This shade is definitely still sold by Body Shop ( at least it was as of last week ), but for some reason they don't have it on the website, but should you want to look for other colours then 'clicky'.

I love both he packaging and applicator of this product, it looks very high end and it's one of those products that you would be proud to have in your makeup bag. As for the look of the product on the lips, it looks beautiful, very shimmery but not cheap looking, it's also a very flattering shade that would compliment most skin tones, it's not very pigmented at all, but I don't think it's supposed to be.

I feel like I'm insulting the product by using this picture as it doesn't even come close to showing how pretty the product is. Just for clarification the gold colour is an eyeliner swatch for a different review. The shimmery pink in the middle is this lip gloss.

I'm so disappointed with the picture as I feel like the look of the product is it's main redeeming feature. It feels very sticky on the lips and you can even feel the little specks of glitter when you pres your lips together, which isn't awfully pleasant. However if you leave your lips alone it will last as long as you would expect a £10 lip gloss to last.

All in all, I do love the look of this whenever I wear it, but saying that I don't wear it very often because a) It's too expensive for everyday wear and b) I have to be in a mood where the feel of it won't bother me. I should really point out that this is my most expensive lip product to date and it's sadly, despite the prettiness it is not my favourite. In hindsight I really wish I had bought the Blusher ( Shade Petal), which looks terrifying in the pan but was actually beautiful.

Please do let me know if there are any products you'd like me to review,
