MATTE LIP HEAVEN
One of my favourite places to buy American make up, who I have worked with in the past, surprised me with a fabulous gift today which I was not expecting... La Belle UK Cosmetics have created their own make up line, and sent me the matte lip creams to try (they know me so well)! I love matte lip products because generally they are more long lasting, you don't really need lip liner with them, and they are different to most looks you generally see.
I wasn't expecting this package so I didn't get to choose the shades I was sent, and I am glad I didn't as I would have gone for all the nudes and avoided the rest... However, they sent me three shades that are completely out of my comfort zone and that I LOVE!
The shade 'Wild Child' (the darkest) is like a brown, and it reminded me of the colour Kylie Jenner was wearing on Instagram the other day, when she announced her Lip Kit Line, so here's a drug store steel for Kylie's lip colour!
They are quite long lasting, I had to reapply after I had eaten, but I do that after I eat with any lipstick so that doesn't really bother me, I would say it lasts around 3-4 hours with no re application, which is really good, I find most expensive brands can not hold their original colour pay off longer then an hour. This product is going to last you ages, one dip in the bottle will do your whole lip and more, in fact its too much, I have to wipe the applicator on the bottle first because the product just goes such a long way.
WARNING: Make sure your lips are condition, with ALL matte lip products no matter the brand, the matte dry finish will pick up any flakes or chaps on your lips and highlight them, and it just RUINS the look. I would strongly recommend this product if you love a matte look. or even if your trying something new, I know I'm so predictable but the Nude shades looks unbelievable, seriously the shade 'Bare' is unlike anything I have seen.
