A month of lipsticks, January 30th 2013.

Hello lovelies, If you read yesterdays post you will have seen that that was my last lipstick post and swatch and today I have for you my lipstick collection with my lip glosses and some lip balms just thrown in for good measure.



So to start with the storage, My storage drawers are from Muji and my lipstick case is from Ebay! At the top I store my lipsticks and in the draws I have lip glosses, lip crayons, lip stains and lip lacquers. 


To the left I have all sorts of lipstick brands
17, Glossybox, Rimmel, Elf, Sleek, L'Oreal, Maybelline, Collection, Gosh, Revlon  and Max Factor. These are all my drugstore lipsticks and I adore them all. The sleek pout paints are super pigmented and last hours. Rimmel are a fantastic brand for affordable lipsticks in all sorts of finishes and shades. 17 do some lovely lipsticks from super pigmented to super sheer they do affordable lipsticks for everyone's individual style. There all great up there apart from the 17 mirror shine lipsticks they are just to sheer for me but some people like sheer its just personal preferences.


This is just a close up of the L'Oreal Glam shine stain splash's these are very nice. They feel and look luxurious to me, they go on like water then dry like a lipstick, I really need some more of these.


Then to the right I have my more expensive lipsticks, I don't have very many as there are so many good drugstore lipsticks out there and I can't justify over £15 for a lipstick that isn't going to last very long on my lips? Although I would love to try some more higher end lipsticks such as YSL, Chanel, Tom Ford and Burberry. But here I have Mac, Clinique, Topshop, Maybelline, Yves Rocher, Rimmel, Revlon then I do have some MUA at the back. Mua do some amazing lipsticks for just ONE POUND. Ridiculous they smell sweet and the pigmentation is great. Also a Bare minerals lip gloss as it didn't fit in my lip gloss drawer. I do love my Mac lippys, who doesn't love a good Mac lipstick? There just so nice and soft on your lips, glossy and sleek packaging. I love my Revlon lip butter and need to pull my finger out and get some more shades! There are so many gorgeous shades available and they feel so hydrating on your lips. Maybelline Colour sensational wow, these are just mega pigmented and stain your lips up to hours on end, you must check these out lovelies! Especially that 910 one its just gorgeous.

Inside the drawers...


At the bottom I have my chunky lip crayons, I adore my chunky lip crayons, they feel hydrating, glossy, pigmented and such pretty colours. I have So Susan, Chit Chat, Jelly Pong, Borjouis, Revlon, Catrice and MUA. My favorite of them all are my Borjouis ones they just feel like soft butter on your lips and the colour pay of is great. 


In the middle drawer I have lip glosses and lip lacquers. I have Mac, No7, Rimmel, Max Factor, Soap&Glory and Mally. My favorite from all these are my Rimmel Apocolips they are very pigmented and last for hours and come in great shades that I need to expand.


Then the top drawer I have my little lip crayons and some more lip glosses. I have Nars, Urban Decay, Bellapierre, Elf, Barry M, Benefit, Gosh, Max Factor and MUA. If you don't know this already Nars - Cruella is my absolute favorite lip crayon it lasts hours, super gorgeous red and stains your lips, it is a little drying as most matte pencils are but if you hydrate your lips with a lip balm you will be fine. Also love the Max factor one very similar to the Nars pencils but not matte and very glossy and pigmented also a lot cheaper.

Then lastly I thought I would just show you some of my lip balms, I say some as some are in handbags, at work, floating around the house and probably left on a bus or something.


Eve, Nivia, Bodyshop, Read the label, Malibu, Lacura and Beauty fixation.
There all great lip balms and do the job! I have the Maybeline Baby Lips floating around somewhere there nice aswell as the Bodyshop ones for a touch of colour with your hydration.

I love looking at peoples make up collections and storages so if you have a lipstick one please share in the comments below would love a peek! 




My make up collection

Hello lovelies, I have been umming and arring alot about this post but finally got round to doing it. Im quite happy with the space my make up collection is in at the moment but awaiting my new dressing table. I haven't got a massive make up collection but have got an unhealthy obsession for lip products! Also probably don't need that many mascaras but this is what I love! Most of my pennies go on beauty products I really am obsessed with make up and skin care products you can never have too much honestly! So here goes, a warning there are lots of pictures.


I currently use my spare room upstairs as my little getaway, my beauty haven such a great place to just chill out. It has most of my favorite things upstairs so I love it very much.


This is a little floating shelf I just popped on top of a radiator, very safe hey. That consists of three little drawers where I mainly keep cu-tips, buttons and random little flimsy things. On top of that a cute little pot I keep my make up brushes in containing Real Techniques brushes, Eco Tools, Elf and other random brands. A little whiskey glass I got from a charity shop in a set of four which I usually keep my little Yankee candles in but this one keeps my eye lash curlers and pencil sharpener. Then a little pot from Ikea which you will probably see everywhere over the blogosphere containing random brushes I rarely use and a glass jar containing eye brow pencils and eye liners of all forms. 







Then in the middle a plastic clear container I got of Ebay which has my mascaras scattered in the slots which is usually for lipsticks but I like to be different consisting of Clinique, Benefit, Yves Rocher, Gosh, 17, Max factor, Rimmel and more and a glass jar next to it full of random lip products that don't fit in my other designated places. Then three clear draws full of my lipsticks from Highstreet to drugstore. Mac, Topshop, Clinique, Sleek, Rimmel, Maybelline, MUA, 17 an others. Next to that a Ted baker tin mug full of lip glosses. Mac, Rimmel, Elf and many drugstore lip glosses. 




Then in the large glass jars I have a big one containing all my little samples, sachets mostly then the other full of cotton pads. Two little jars containing hair grips and perfume samples.  



Then in the two draws below I have in the left hand side my 'Eyes' draw.


In the back basket I have eye shadow palettes and eye brow palettes, I have bigger eye shadow palettes to the side and the little glossy box lid in front I have single eye shadows with a couple of shimmer sticks and eye lid primers. The little black pot next to that is full of random things. 


Then in the right hand side draw I have my 'Face' products. 


This consists of my Foundations, Primers, BB creams, Concealers, Powders, Highlighters Blushers and Bronzers.


My foundations, from highstreet to drugstore consisting of Estee Lauder, Mac, Benefit, Rimmel, Loreal, MUA, Lush and other brands.


Then BB creams, Tinted moisturisers, Concealers, Highlighters and Primers all ranges of highstreet and drugstore.


My blushers, Elizabeth Arden, Mua, No7, Elf, Mac, Rimmel, Revlon and others.


My Bronzers, consisting of Avon, No7, Elf, Bourjois, W7 and other brands. My Powder brush also lives in here as it fits nicely. 

Then lastly on my make up draws I have my nail varnish collection along with my two mirrors.


A whole different variety of nail polishes up above, I love experimenting with nail art and I pretty much have every single colour I think. My nail art bits and bobs are in the bigger draws. If you would like to see more into my nail collection don't be afraid to ask :)

Like I said I haven't got a huge collection but I'm pretty pleased with it its enough for me and I love spending a good few minutes choosing what look I'm going to go for in the morning. I hope you liked this post and I LOVE Make up collection videos and posts and if you have one please pop it in the comments, I love a good nose through.
