Lipstick & Nail polish haul // Topshop



Recently I've picked up a few pieces from Topshop, I have been getting really into there lipsticks ,the packaging and the range of colours have just incised me in 


The first lipsticks I picked up were ohh la la// £8.00 which is a bright orange / Pinky colour which is quite sheer with the application , this is definitely a summer colour and really brightens the face, Along with another really summery colour is Innocent // £8.00 Which is quite a shimmery pink colour also quite sheer
I'm not usually into sheer colours and I think they wash me out and I think these were no different would definitely suit a darker skin tone.
Two that I picked up recently were Rio Rio // £8.00 , now this colour was right up my street when I picked up looked like a deep orange but after I took it home it was more of a dark red I don't know  what I was seeing in the store! but none the less red is my favourite lipstick colour and the application is just amazing.

Now the next on is a lip bullet Joyride //  £8.00 this is my favourite of all of them. On the stick it looks quite red but on application its quite a deep pink it goes on really flawless 

All lipsticks out of Topshop are currently 2 for £12.00 which is quite a bargain!



The nail polishes I got were 'All I need is aniseed' & 'Lost for words' both pinks , the All I need is aniseed is a deep pink with great application throne thing I was impressed by were how quickly they dried , this colour only needed one coat and it was good to good so this is great if you were in a rush , The same couldn't be said for Lost for words, a very pale pink that is sheer I had to put on three coats of this to get the desired colour but when it had dried the colour was just gorgeous
These two nail polishes were £5 each

Barry M Gelly Hi Shine Lips

Following my previous post about Barry M Gelly Hi Shine Nail polish which you can check using the link, I've decided to give their new lip range a bash 

I had first heard about these whilst watching one of blogger Rhiannon Ashlee (Fashionrocksmysocks) vlogs, I loved the look of the packaging and I am forever getting taking in my packaging, the color looks so bright and vibrant, Just what my make up bag really needs!!

So I headed straight to Boots to do  little testing on the colors! I was so impressed by all of them but a little strapped for cash, fortunately boots have an offer on for buy one get one half price so it made a little easier to choose what colors I wanted


These don't have names but, the pink color is number 4 and red is 2, I thought these were both so gorgeous even if I don't need any more red lipstick in my life! They both apply very well and smooth but the red is a lot more opaque than the pink but easily layered!

I think I will definitely be picking up more of these

Thanks for reading :)
