TOPSHOP Lipsticks | A/W

As per usual Wales has had plenty more delightful rain than sun this August and it's making me more and more impatient for Autumn/Winter to come around! i just hate this in between stage where its super cold yet still summer, so frustrating! i'm ready so rock a darker lip and get all cozy now!

I've had my eye on Topshop makeup for a while, I've been seeing a ton of great reviews and swatches and been dying to get my hands on the lippy's! they don't seem to sell much of the makeup range in the store nearest me, So during a recent shopping trip into Cardiff I thought I'd have a little look through see what the fuss was all about..There is also a 2 for £12 offer on lipsticks at the minute! So they turned out to be an absolute bargin! i spent a ridiculous amount of time swatching most of the pretty colours and finally decided on the shades 'Red Lippy' and 'Drive'.

Red Lippy

'Red Lippy' is well.. pretty much what the name says, it's a gorgeous red shade with no undertones of any other colour.. just your basic red! I love a red lip especially in the winter time and coming up to Christmas so I'm sure this shade will be getting plenty of use. 

Drive

'Drive' Caught my eye instantly before I had even swatched the rest of them.. It's a deep plum purple shade with a metalic finish.. i'm not normally too fond of a metalic finish but as you can see from the swatches its very subtle. Again sooo pretty! This may i add is my first purple lipstick so i'm definately looking forward to rocking this through A/W.

Here is a swatch of the two..

I was actually shocked at the amazing quality and pigmentation of these lippy's for only £8.. they apply effortlessly and are sooo creamy! I think I possibly may have started another collective addiction!

uh-oh!
