Lipstick Haul!

So I went to Florida around the start of July and I picked up some stuff, makeup being the number one thing but since I haven't tried much of the makeup that I bought (and also I cbf showing all the makeup / clothes I bought) I thought I would just show what lip products I bought while overseas!

Also I didn't swatch any because my lips are dry af and no but I will say that most of them do look quite divine :D

I shall start off with MAC and say I'm regretting that I didn't buy more MAC lipsticks because in the US with the conversion rates it's still $15 cheaper in the states than it is in Australia, but oh well.

I got the MAC lip pencil in the shade Burgundy, since I have a lipstick in the shade Sin and I wanted a pencil because I find with MAC it's harder to apply than say, Revlon. I don't know whether this is just me because I have dry lips but I find that MAC is quite dry. Which sucks because I LOVE their colours.

Next, onto Urban Decay. I got a lip pencil in I believe it's called Naked 2? The tip is quite blunt because er, I made it blunt. My bad. It applies smoothly though and it's a nice shade on my lips, so I can't wait to find some way to sharpen it so I can use it again.

I got the pencil to match the liquid lipstick from Anastasia Beverly Hills in the shade Pure Hollywood. Though the colour looks nice on my skin, my lips have a more pinky tone to them so I felt like the nude stood out too much. I might give that one away to my best friend and keep the lip pencil to myself.

Next is Revlon, because Revlon is bae and $8 lipsticks guys please do not complain about the price of these because in Australia, Revlon is $32 for a lipstick. THIRTY TWO DOLLARS. I got four lipsticks after mum made me narrow it down from 9 to 4. You suck, mum. I love the packaging, it's quite nice and not at all cheap looking, which I like. They're all super lustrous, and though I tend to gravitate towards a matte finish I like this look too.

This is Black Cherry 477, which I realise now is very similar to my other lipstick MAC Sin, but oh well. I think it's a little darker and I look cool af in it so I'm not complaining.

Image

This is Wine With Everything 520, which appears more pink on my skin than I would've liked but with that being said it doesn't come off as too bright, which I like.

Image

This is Berry Rich 510, which is more of a darker pink and one I won't wear too often. I might give this away but I'm thinking of keeping it because what if I'm in a girly mood?

Image

This is my second most-worn colour so far, Rosedew 407. It's a light pinky peachy colour and since my bottom lip is more pink than my top lip, it appears as my lips but better type colour.

NOW ONTO MY FAVOURITE / MOST WORN LIPSTICK

This is Estee Lauder's Pure Colour Envy Sculpting Lipstick in the shade Discreet. This is another my lips but better colour, as my upper lip is more brown than my bottom lip so on it looks rad. This is also my most worn because it's quite neutral but not too in your face, which I like. Also I love how I've become a pro at putting it on because it's that easy to apply.

And that's all the lip stuff I got! I think my best friend is getting me some more EL shades from her Europe trip so here's hoping she got the colours that I asked for. If so, I shall probably haul those too!
