MAC Wee Coquette Lipglass.

MAC lipglass in 'Wee Coquette' - £13.00
As well as my other recent MAC purchases I picked up this one too. I like it because its an easy to wear colour, despite being a light, pale colour I don't feel it appears too pale on my lips. I think it will work well as a top coat over a similar shade of lipstick too. Overall I think it's an easy to wear colour, and will work most of the time for everyday use. However, I dont like this colour as much as the other MAC lipglasses I have tried, for example the Viva Glam Gaga lipglass (reviewed here), which I feel is a much nicer colour as well as consistency. Has anyone else tried Wee Coquette? Thoughts?

Viva Glam Gaga liplass alone
I haven't tried many MAC products before, but recently I've splashed out on a few! I should really stop spending but I've been searching for a nude lip colour for a while and I think these two work. I'm absolutely in love with the Viva glam Gaga lipglass, it's the perfect nude colour Ive been looking for for so long! I think its such an easy colour to wear everyday, and will go with anything.

as for the 'Delectable' mattene lipstick, i love the corally colour but I'm not sure I would ever wear it alone. I'm not a fan of the matte finish, i much prefer a glossy finish. That's why I've included a photo of the Viva glam lip gloss over the top, I think this is a better look so I will probably combine the two, or otherwise I would probably add a clear gloss over the matte lipstick. Has anyone else tried either of these ?

Sally Hansen natural butter lip shine.

Sally Hansen Natural Butter Lip Shine - 99p

Whilst browsing on the fragrance direct website the other week for a few bargain bits I spotted this Sally Hansen lip butter it was an absolute bargain at 99p so I thought I'd give it a go. I chose the shade 'lush' it's a very nude shade, I tend to go for pink or coral lip colours and haven't had a nude one in a while so it caught my eye. I'm really impressed with how it looks on, I wasn't expecting it to be as visible as it is with it being such a nude colour. Excuse the odd face I'm pulling on the second photo but here's an example of what it looks like on when I wore it the other night:



As you can see it's not an overpowering colour but I'm really liking it as a subtle colour as it won't be too much for the day time / at work. Anyway, hope everyone is having a lovely Easter weekend!
