Review: MAC Lipstick in Lickable

MAC Lipstick is the newest pink in my lipstick collection, bring my bright pink lipsticks to a confusing four.

When the heck did I buy so many? And more important how did I get suckered in to buying so many???

Lickable is a hot and very bold fuschia pink-berry colour with a blue undertone that would be great for summer.

It's a cremesheen so expect this lipstick to have great wearability, a creamy formula, a great colour payoff and the infamous MAC lipstick vanilla smell.

Now while it does have a great colour pay off when built up, this lipstick comes off as semi-opaque, so depending on your preference that could be what yo umight be looking for or a deal breaker

Now while I'm still in a state of confusion on why I own so many bright lipstick, I just have to say that I  love the name of the shade . . . say it slowly with me lliiiiicccckkkkaaaabbbllllleeeeeee looool

I would love to say I preferring for the summer months and that why I own this . . but we all know it was an impulse buy.

What's been your latest impulse buy?? Or better yet what do you think is an awesome lipstick for summer so I can add this to my mental impulse buy checklist??

New Cid Cosmetics

Thursday night I was invited to the New CID Cosmetics studios in Central London, to get a sneak preview of some their soon to be released products and let me just say . . . girlies you are in for a treat this year.

I'm really new to New Cid Cosmetics (I'm a CID Virgin *sniggers to self*) but I've heard a lot of good things about their products; especially about their lipsticks, so as you can guess I was really excited about learning about their products . . .and more importantly what they had that could suit my skin shade.

The first thing that caught my beady lil' eyes were their lipstick and glosses. I know why everyone has hyped up the i-pout lipsticks now. They are bloody amazing, so glossy and pigmented which is exactly how I love my lippies. If the pigmentation had not swayed me, the inbuilt touch and mirror that comes standard with each i-pout won me over. I think this would be a perfect addition to my bag, especially at night when I'm trying to find my keys. There are 12 shades in the i-pout collection and my favourite *which you can see below* is a gorgeous pink shade called Fuscia and Very Cherry, an indulgent dark red/plum shade.


A new product which will be hitting the shelves in the next few months is their i-Perfection Colour Adjust Foundation to replace their current i-Perfect range. The i-Perfection is a light to meduim coverage foundation which allows you to warm up and cool down your foundation to match your skin tone perfectly. It is available to purchase in 9 shades ranging from Nougat (very pale porcelain skin tones) to Mocha (dark/black skin tones). 

Our Makeup Artist for the Night, Mikey was on hand to show us just how wonderful this new foundation was and how easy it was to use.

It looked so gorgeous and lightweight.

New CID Cosmetics have a lot of great goodies coming out in the next few months, like i-Polish, which is a Light up Nail Polish that I will be keeping an eye and an ear out for, and I suggest you do to.

After all, who wouldn't want chic packaged cosmetics which light up??

Kate Moss For Rimmel

"Look what I've got" 

* sing-song voice*

On a totally impromptu trip to the Bond Street Superdrug this week, I locked eyes on the Kate Moss Collection for Rimmel and it really does look every bit as appealing as I heard (and read) it would be.

Bronzed and Patriotic . . Reminds me of a certain Person I know ;)

The Eyeshadows which come in a range of purples, browns, greens and a really random Union flag coloured blue,white and pink combination, looked really pigmented (and patriotic), while the casing for the lipstick looked absolutely gorgeous!!! I know you shouldn't judge a make up product by its packaging but this time I have to make an exception.

I picked up the Kate Moss Lipstick in shade 08, which comes in a pinky brown shade; perfect for a nude lippie *for me anyway* and also the bronzed out eyeshadow palette. So far I've had a little play around with both the lippies and eyeshadows and I actually really love the way the shades show up on my skin. I can't preach about the durability yet but I feel it the eyeshadow should last for a good while before becoming dull but then again only time will tell.
