Bourjois Rouge Edition Velvet Lipstick Review

These are two lipsticks that i have been in constant use since i brought them over 2 months ago. I LOVE THEM. They are perfect colors for me as both I have worn on a daily basis, these lipsticks are the ones i constantly get compliments on. They have great lasting power however I don't believe they last 24hr's like they state especially after food and drink.

(Top) Hot Pepper (Bottom) Nude-ist

These lipsticks are very lightweight and great velvety texture. One of the main complaint is the smell which i think smells a bit like burned caramel. The smell goes away after a few minutes and then you will see the wonders of these lipsticks. I love both colors equally and there are more shades that i want to try and the first is Ole Flamingo which is a very bright pink. This is raved by ViviannaDoesMakeup on YouTube.

Overall 
Brand:  Bourjois
Price: £8.99
Pro's: Light Weight, Long Lasting, Velvet Texture, Color Selection
Con's: Smell
Overall Rating : 5*

I hope you enjoyed my blog and if you know a really good eyeliner please comment

Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain Vs Bourjois Paris Colour Boost Lip Crayon

Its been a while since i last posted a beauty review because i have been so busy at work , but i knew i needed to post a new beauty review . I wanted to do a little comparison of these two lip products because they are so similar , the prices are the exact same however i believe that the products are very different in many ways.



I first got the Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain a while ago in the colour in Smitten , as i love quite dark colours on the lips i thought this would be a great lip stain. When i first got it i used it almost everyday , i believe the colour pay off is very good and you don't really need to layer it up much. However i find it very messy when you apply the lip stain to your lips , as its a dark shade it is hard to make it look perfect. I believe its due to the fact that it has quite a thick tip to the lip stain which makes it hard to go close to edges of your lips without going outside and making you look like a cloud. Although it does stay on for a long time it is very drying to the lips which i don't like especially when it gets to the winter months. It Claims that it is a moisturizing balm and that 100% of women who tried it felt their lips were instantly moisturized with a soft stain of colour which i believe is not true.
Overall 
Brand: Revlon
Price: £7.99
Pro's: The colour is very pretty for the winter time , and it is easy to pop in your handbag.
Con's: I don't like the thick tip of the stain because it makes it hard to look perfect, and it can look very patchy
Overall rating : 3.5*


I recently purchased Bourjois Paris Colour Boost Lip Crayon in peach on the beach which is an amazing summer lip colour , it is very moisturizing and smooth. The only down side of this product is that i find it goes on quite patchy. It is a beautiful colour for the summer months but i don't think you can really wear it in the winter as it is very bright. The strange thing is , is that i find this lip product easier to use rather than the revlon balm stain and it is defiantly find this product very moisturizing. I find this product does stay on the lips however i believe the revlon one was much more long lasting.

Overall 
Brand: Bourjois 
Price: £7.99
Pro's: The colour is very pretty for the summer time , very silky and moisturizing on the lips  and it is easy to pop in your handbag.
Con's: It goes on quite patchy and doesn't last that long so you will have to apply regularly 
Overall rating : 4.5*

I hope you liked the comparison and please comment to recommend any make up products.

Boots Haul and First Impressions of Products

So i took a trip to town the other day and picked up a few things from boots as there was a 3 for 2 offer on. I thought instead of doing the normal haul so actually give you my first impression of all the products i brought.

Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum - I found the colour that suits my skin perfectly which is very hard to find cause i have fair skin so i was very happy about that . This is renown for being a dupe of the Chanel vitalumiere aqua , this is looks very smooth on the skin and gives a beautiful glow without being too cakey.

Bourjois Colour Boost Lipstick in Peach on the beach- I love the colour on my fair skin , goes on so smooth onto my lips and its got a beautiful glossy sheen on my lips. Zoella recommended this lipstick so i had to pick it up in the offer.

Bourjois Bronzing Powder - It renown for its luscious smell of chocolate , i must say that the product is very lovely its easy to use for a beginner you can build the colour up for a contour.

Maybelline Fit Me Powder - My very first impression was how soft to touch and takes away the shine , i had run out of my Maybelline dream matte powder so i thought i should try a different powder. So far i like my fit me powder more as it is more smooth and less cakey.

Maybelline Dream Pure BB Cream (2% Salicylic acid for oily skin) - I picked up this BB cream instead of the normal BB cream because i have been breaking out lately and thought it might treat my spots will giving a bit of coverage. Its a perfect light colour for my skin and gives a very smooth finish.

Maybelline The Eraser Concealer - Its a nice concealer for the under eyes , although it is a anti age concealer i heard it was great for the under eyes , so i have been using it in my daily routine . I am not liking the sponge applicator because i think it is very unhygienic so i completely torn it off.

I hope you liked my post , please comment so i can talk.
