Today I have another lipstick swatch to show you.
I recently received a bundle of goodies from ilovebeauty - as you may well be aware from my last post. I am slowly but surely trying to make my way through swatching my goodies...
Here is another beautiful lipstick!
Rimmel Moisture Renew in Rouge.
This lipstick was actually very moisturising, but accordingly wore off rather quickly... The colour is lovely and vibrant and I would explain the end finish as a satin as oppose to an intense gloss or deliberate matte. I will most definitely be wearing this again!
Now for some pictures for ya'll
Thanks for checking this post out, I really hope you enjoyed it.
For Christmas MyLove purchased me an ilovebeauty voucher.
Now as you may know I am very fond of ilovebeauty... So it was a perfect gift!
I got around to spending the voucher and this lipstick is one of the goodies I purchased!
And I love it!
This is probably one of my favourite lipsticks!
This colour looks so bright in the tube, so at first I was a little hesitant, but then this is on, boy does it shine!
The staying power is amazing! this lasted most of the day, even with eating, drinking and all sorts of talking...
As one would expect from Elizabeth Arden, superb packaging, chic sleek case and a smooth formula that glides on easy!
Cute and comfy...
It makes me feel a little bit country.
I must say thought I was pulling my white singlet-slip down a number of times throughout the day, and pulling my tights up. I should wear leggings next time.

No jewelry for me today- I wanted the focus to be on the funky print of my dress!
Without further ado here are some polish photos:
Thanks for visiting... Please let me know what you think :)
Look at this cute polish!
What an epic colour!
This polish is created by Ovarian Cancer Awareness NZ. Each bottle is $10. More info about buying these can be found on the Ovarian Cancer Awareness NZ Facebook page.
Look at how cutely (is that a word?) it was packaged!
This polish is smaller than my usual size. I'd say about 7.5ml (which is the size of maybelline and China Glaze mini's).
The brush is a pretty standard small brush:
The colour is so lovely!
This is a shear polish, I'd say it's a crelly (?) - it's quite sheer and jelly like with a slight milky-cream-like-ness to it...
This is one coat (looks yuck just one coat!)
Looks heaps better with two-thick to three coats:
This is just overall a lovely polish. To be fair I don't have many jelly polishes or sheer creams come to that. I think I will actually get a lot of use with this.
I can't wait to try a jelly sandwich with this one!
Isn't it beautiful?
Hope you enjoyed my photo-spam.
One of my favourite designs at the moment!!
To be honest I am positing this so late and cannot remember if I did the gradient first for the striping tape first.
Next time I do a design like this I'll try to make a tutorial...
What are your thoughts?
would you be interested in a tutorial for this?
Who else loves this cider!?
My favourite flavour - all berries!
My work in progress
The finished design:
What do you think? Cider Addict like me?
Oh my goodness I love this polish!!
For those of you who know me well, know I LOVE pink. It is my favourite colour for just about everything! (Orange is a very close second)
So when one of my polish friends was destashing this beauty I just had to grab it!
Introducing Cult Nails- Morning Glory The colour is AMAZING!!
This is everything I could want in a hot pink polish!
The formula was smooth, consistent and super opaque!
It actually dries a little matte (the photo is on plastic nail enhancements) and with a top coat it's super dooper shiney!!!
What are your thoughts?
I love me some Butter London Nail Polish, so I was pretty darn excited to get my hands on this beautiful blue polish- Blagger.
I am quite fond of the Butter London bottles, however they have quite little bottle caps, which can be difficult to paint with.
The colour of this one is a bit more vibrant than in the bottle and a really solid opaque colour.
The formula was fantastic, smooth and consistent!
The colour was easy to apply- no streaks - and super opaque.
Overall I love this polish! I can't wait to get my hands on more Butter London.
