Wet n Wild lipsticks review

Let me start off my saying im reviewing two different types of lipsticks from Wet N Wild firstly 

  • Wet N Wild Silk Finish Lipsticks (i own 2) 
Wet N wild Says: Give yourself a silky smooth lips with Wet n Wild Silk Finish Lipstick! Packed with conditioning ingredients of vitamin A & E, and Aloe Vera, this Wet n Wild Silk Finish Lipstick glides on your lips effortlessly, leaving lips feeling moist from morning till night! Apply as much as or as little to get the perfect intensity!

  • Wet N wild Mega Last Lip Color (i own 1 so far)
Wet N wild Says: Fall in love with Wet n Wild Mega Last Lip Color, a highly pigmented and long-lasting lipstick that delivers rich hues in semi-matte, crème finish in one stroke. Wet n Wild Mega Last Lip Color has a velvety texture that glides on smooth. A blend of hydrating skin-care ingredients such as Hyaluronic Microspheres , exclusive polymer complex, natural marine plant extracts Coenzyme Q10 and Vitamins A & E leaves your lips feeling healthy and smooth. Available in 18 beautiful shades from creamy nude to hot pink.


The 1st & 3rd is the Silk Finish lipsticks in shades "Light Beige Frost & Breeze" the 2nd is Mega last lip color in "Bare it all" 
I purchased these on http://www.nonpareilboutique.com.  I paid $3.00 for the Mega Last Lip Color and $1.10 for the Silk Finish Lipsticks.  Now at the time postage to Ireland was fairly cheap from this website but lately i have noticed that the postage is gone extremely expensive so i havent purchased off this site in quite a while which is unfortunate as i love the way this site has selections on all different types of brands at really cheap prices i got wuite a good few items from Wet n Wild as this brand is extremely hard to purchase from my country.  
Anyways back to my review on these lippies:

 "Light Beige Frost,Bare it all & Breeze" in sunlight 
"Light Beige Frost,Bare it all & Breeze" in natural light 

Light Beige Frost(510A):   First of all the name of this doesnt make sense to me haha it says brige buts its actually a deep pink frost with shimmer lipstick, dont get me wrong i love it but i thought it would be more on the brown side than pink but i will still use it :) as you can see by the swatches, its creamy and sheer yet very pigmented not bad for the price i must say.......

Bare It all(902C):  is a nice, light brown color with more peach than pink undertones.  Its extremely creamy and very matte.  The texture on this lipstick is dry but not overly drying.  I cant believe how thick this lippie is a little goes a long long way.....I love love love this withh a dark or smokey eye look its absolutely perfect plus i add a little gloss to it and ive had many compliments wearing this shade i love it 

Breeze(547B):  Is a nude shade with silver frost.....on my lips you really only notice the silver frost not so much the actual colour only very slightly.......im surely anyone with a darker skin tone you will only see sheer silver on your lips.....i love this shade tho its wearable and so soft on the lip 

Lip Swatch of "Breeze" 
Bare It All 

Light Beige Frost 
I think for the value of these they are incredible....although the packaging looks cheap i dont mind as long as the quality is good thats all that matters and between the two your getting more than your moneys worth :) I would love to purchase more shades and hopefully soon i will find some site that is not as expensive in postage as the site i got these in......I have to say if you can at all get these grab them you wont be disappointed not only do they moisturise your lips but they make them feel and look good also you get just as much product in them as any other lipsticks on the market.....

so girls hope you found this review helpful and let me know what you think of them 

ok until next time
cya soon

Disclaimer:  anything i review is bought out of my own pocket unless stated different,  i like to be honest and i like to give my utmost honest opinion on anything i use.....as i would like an honest opinion back if you like my reviews please click follow i have lots more to review so keep an eye out :)

Avons True colour eyeshadow quads review

Silky smooth eyeshadow can be layered up for vivid, intense colour that looks fresh all day*. by avon 


All available shades in these Quads :) 
You Can purchase these off your local rep or on the UK site Here or on the Irish site Here  The prices vary from time to time so i cant tell you an exact price.... I know i purchased 3 different quads 1 cost me €12 and the other 2 cost me €3.50 on sale :) so on with the review 


As i said above i got 3 Quads in shades "Mocha Latte, Blue denim & Lace Electric" 
At first i was sceptic about buying these as they are kind of affordable but at the time €12 was a lot to part with been a single mum and i never heard anyone talking about these quads so i just took the risk and purchase one.  Then a few weeks later I noticed a sale on these so i purchased 2 more...
"Mocha Latte"


Mocha Latte:  In this quad you are getting 4 Neutral Tone eye shadows.  This quad is my favourite out of the 3 by far.....They are so highly pigmented i fell in love love love.....this was the first quad i purchase which i paid full price for & i wouldn't mind paying full price for it again!!!! its well worth i......and according to a friend of mine she found a dupe of each of these from MAC  1st shade is similar to Mac shroom......2nd shade similar to Mac Cork .....3rd is definately similar to Mac Woodwind and the 4th shade similar to Mac Charcoal.....correct me if im wrong tho but she did do swatches of each against the mac shadows :)  someone especially with blue eyes this quad would make your eyes stand out but this quad is suitable for everyone 


"Blue Denim"
Blue Denim:  Now Blues wouldnt be the first shades i would go for i dont know why i think because of my eye colour( green/hazel/blue) i dont think blues is not the shade for me but of course i didnt want to put a full stop on that saying so i went ahead and purchased this quad to see for myself.......The 1st shade is a very light silver 2nd is a light sky blue 3rd is a dark blue and the 4th is more grey than blue........This quad would definately be suitable for someone with brown eyes it certainly would make their eyes pop..... I did try this in so many different ways and looks but no it just doesnt do anything for me but i still thinks its a great quad i have no faults with it 



"Lace Electric"
Lace Electric:  I just love this quad :).........I suppose i love it because its suitable for my eye colour and boy does this quad make my eyes pop......the 1st shade is a satin white (great for inner corners of eyes) 2nd shade is mostly matte violet purple but with some tiny bits of glitter 3rd shade is a black-toned, smoky purple that has a slight pink shimmer and the 4th shade is a fab satin grey blue......you can create a great great smoky eye with this quad alone i love experimenting with this i will definitely be purchasing this one again in the future :) :) 

Swatches in normal light 


Swatches with flash 

They  come  in a black casing with AVON inscribed into it. The casing has a mirror inside. It comes with a dual sided sponge tip brush which is great for lining along the lower lash line. The brush would do a good job if you were away from home and had no brushes with you . 
 The eye shadows are of good quality.  There is very little  fall out when you apply them. They are not chalky.  The colours blend easily into the skin n into each other.  you can apply wet or dry.  The quads easily fit into your bag.  Now one thing i have to admit is the colour do look different on the Avon book/website than they do in real life, this is mainly the reason for my review......The last a good 6 hours on me without a primer but with they last until i take my make-up off which is usually after about 10 hours wear which i think is excellent :) 

overall girls your are not going to feel like you have wasted your money on these.  Your getting good quality and quantity for your money need i say more 

I hope this was helpful to you and i hope you have fun experimenting with them if or when you get them 

thats all for now girls 
take care
lots of Irish kisses your way

e.l.f Brightening eye color (quads) **Updated** review

Luxuriously smooth, corn silk formula provides eyes with a neutral base and an awakened brightness. by e.l.f
Ingredients

Talc, Mica, Zinc Stearate, Kaolin, Paraffinium Liquidu(Mineral Oil), Petrolatum, Bis-Diglyceryl Polyacyladipate-2, MethylParaben, Propylparaben, Iron Oxides (CI 77491 , CI 77492 , CI 77499), Manganese Violet (CI 77742), Mica (CI 77019), Titanium Dioxide (CI 77891), Yellow No.5 Lake (CI 19140), Red No.40 Lake (CI 16035), Ultramarine Violet (CI 77077), Blue No.1 Lake (CI 42090)



These are 8 additional shades i got :)
There are 18 shades altogether available on the site.  They retail at £1.50/$1/€1.70 each you can click HERE to take you to the UK site and have a look.  I have purchased 9 shades so far.  Read on to find out my experience with them :) :) 
Firstly you are getting a quad of small shadows.  Each one allows you to create some sort of stylish look so are dramatic some are everyday looks or you can mix up colours from different quads to create you own unique look...... thats the best thing about these they give you the chance to experiment and be creative without feeling "bad" about messing them up as they are so affordable.....:) 


Starting with the first line from left to right: 
These swatches are on their own with no primer used
Brownstone:  This is a great everyday wear quad to create neutral look or every a everyday smokey eye now the darker shade in this is actually a dark grey and the most pigment colour out of this quad on the site it look dark brown but i find the dark grey is perect for the smokey eye effect..... plus these are all matte colours 


Glam:  This pallet is so sparkly i love it....this is perfect for a night out on the town.  The darker shades in this quad are definately the most pigmented but the lighter ones you have to use a bit more to get them to show up which surprised me...... The lighter pink you bearly notice, The black isnt really the blackest ive seen its more dark grey but i still like it, the darker pink is lovely, and the Pinkish coral took alot of swatching before i got colour payoff.... there is a bit of fall out with this one so anymore i put the shadows on before my foundation with this one if you dam the colours onto your eye you would definately get more pay off 


Ethereal:   This in another everyday wear quad not as pigmented as brownstone but between the two you can mix and match.... these are a little glittery but wearable during the day........to be honest i only really use the last to shades of this for a look the pinky shade all over and the brown in the crease works great :) 


Again these swatches are on their own without any primer 
Day 2 Night:  Ok this one is definately well pigmented i really like this quad first of all your getting a light gold,  Bronze, dark brown and light bronzy gold all shimmery......this quad alone creates a beautiful look....... you can also create 2 looks with this one for day and then for night its true to its name :) 


Punk Funk:   I was absolutely amazed at how strongly pigmented this quad was or should say is...... i mean for the price this is definately on top of my list......now the blue and the purple in this are matte and need abit of enticement before showing there true strong colours but i on the other hand wouldnt wear them so strong a dab of the brush for me is grand.....The pink and the white have a wee bit of shimmer in them....the pink look very neon to me but on the eye its perfectly fine :) The white a a tiny tint of pink in it i love this in the inner corner of my eyes it really gives you the wide awake look :) This is another of my favourites 


Butternut:  This is a very pigment neutral quad by far......Your getting a cream, a peach, chocolate brown and Bronze all shimmery.  I loke this one over all the neutral quad i do have from e.l.f but again you can mixed these around with the other quads which is great 


Add caption
Drama:   This is definately a highly pigmented quad and very suitable for nights out......out of this quad you are getting a highly pigmented white not i mean highly you literally only need to dab this to get the amount you need, next is sliver which is very glittery, next is a matte black now this is proper black and again highly pigmented and lastly a light grey with silver sparkles.....this is another of my top list favourites perfect for a dark smokey eye i highly recommend this you wont be disappointed 

Silver lining:   comes with a pearly highlight,a blue purple shade, a charcoal grey shade and  a light pink that can be used as a highlight aswell, ,. All the shadows have a touch of shimmer to them. Both the pigmentation and texture are great on this. It's smooth, easy to blend, and rich in color.  this is another quad i will be buying again 


Pretty in pink:  Your getting in this quad an ivory highlight , medium pink, a purple and a  baby pink.  All of these are shimmery.  I mix these with some purples to make a lovely soft look........i like this too the pigmentation is medium on this quad.  


The first 4 of my lastest addition of the brightening eye colors *Note Please excuse the misprint of the First shade i have "Ivory" down its actually "IVY"
Ivy:  Your gettin a light lime shade, a dark green, an olive shade with gold shimmer and a taupey shade......this is perfect for me as i have hazel eyes and it really makes the color of my eyes pop.......but only thing is its not hugely pigmented i had to literally take a while to get these swatches up for the photo 


Luxe:  In this quad your getting a yellowy/goldy highlight very little pigmentation, a cranberry like red very highly pigmented the other 2 shades a perfect for a natural look you are getting a dark and light brown and they too are highly pigmented..........over all this quad is great 


Hazy Hazel:  I love this quad simply because its suitable for my eye colour.......your getting A dark brown , a very light highlight shade which is not very noticable if your are in any way tanned, a purple and a light brown with a hint of gold shimmer....... this quad is nicely pigmented but i do find it a wee bit on the powdery side so what i do is apply to my eyes before applying foundation as you will expect fallout 


Nymph Dreams:  This is another of my favourites........your getting a gold shimmer highlight, a bronze with gold shimmer, a teal & a dark brown with gold shimmer...this quad is powdery so expect a little fallout.....but this is perfect for spring-summer looks........highly pigmented :) you wont be disappointed with this quad


The last 4 of my latest additions :)
Matte Mauve:  You are getting in this quadLight pink beige, Taupe beige, Maroon brown anda Peachy pink in which all of these are matte true to the name.....I wouldnt use these all together but would mix with neutral shades for everyday looks.  This wouldnt be top on my list on its own as its not as highly pigmented as some of the quads above......


Rocker:  in this quad you are getting a white shimmery highlight with silver glitter the least pigmented in this quad as i found it hard to swatch this one,  a nice goldy tan, a beautiful purple and a charcoal black with silver glitter........ i like this one its perfect for a smokey eye especially for those who are getting used to trying it out or have just started wearing smokey eyes :)


Teal Dreams:  Ok your getting a Cream, a shimmer taupe, a medium to light blue and a beautiful teal,  this is another one of my favourites because of the shades,  im thinking something along the lines of "a sea" look with this quad with a darker blue in the crease......they work fab together try it :) you will love it 


Blue Moon:  This is yet another of the best quads :) your getting a champagne highlight, medium to dark brown, light blue and denim blue.  These shades are great for 2 simple looks i am not a huge fan of blues as i feel they dont suit me and my eye colour but i still find they have great pigmentation and great wear :)


My overall opinion 
Thats it i have finally stocked up on all 18 shades and find at least half of them are my favourites and the others i would be quite happy passing them on.  So girls with these quads you either have a love/hate relationship with them...In my opinion they are not going to please everyone.  If you are expecting high quality out of these your going to be disappointed, if you are open minded and dont expect them to as high quality as some high brand named eyeshadows well these are suited for you.  There is going to be a few in this bunch that will be disappointing i know that but at the end of the day for the price they do a good job and most of them are perfect for everyday wear.....i will be purchasing them again no doubt apart from the few i was disappointed in but they are well worth trying as everyone has different opinions 


i hope this review was helpful girls and let me know if you have tried any.  Can i just add that every one of these quads were bought out of my own money :) and that this review is simply my utmost and honest opinion.....i hope its helps you all out when questioning yourself about these :) thanks for reading my review and if your like what you see please click follow :)



ok girls until next time 
take care 
lots of Irish kisses

e.l.f Regular line Duo eyeshadow cream Review


Duo Eye Shadow Cream


Express yourse.l.f. with the easy to blend, crease resistant, creamy duo eye shadow colors. Each gorgeous shade can be worn alone or together for a dramatic effect. The soft-blending formula can also be layered under powder eye shadow to set the color in and keep it lasting vibrant all day. by e.l.f 




I purchased these from eyelipsface.co.uk to have a look click here.  They are retailing at £1.50/$1/€1.70 each and there are 9 available shades.  I hear nothing but good reviews about these so of course i HAD to try them out for myself :) :).  Even tho i am hugely sceptic when it comes to cream eyeshadows as they are none to crease after an hour of wear or they are just too messy to apply or if you suffer really oily eyelids it seems hard to keep the cream eyeshadow staying put but i went against my doubts and went ahead an purchased them........


From the top left i got shades " Butter Pecan, Coffee & Cream, Sugar cookie, Berry Mix & Mocha Swirl" 
I also realised i missed one while taking the photos forgive me but here it is:
"Eggplant"
I got 3 addition shades in "Blueberry,  Black Licorice & Olive"


Butter Pecan:  These duos come in a lighter and darker shade the lighter shade is a peachy shade and the brown is a coppery brown they look darker in the pot but apply lighter in shade  they both have a goldy undertone , i love these shades 


Coffee & Cream:  I love the name on this its perfect for the eye-shadow,  the lighter shade is a perfect highlighter but i dont see myself wearing this during the day as there is a large amount of glitter in it but perfect for a night out  plus its very light i had to do a couple of swatches of this just to get it up for a photo,  the darker shade is a nice brown color.. Good for a smokey eye base for a dark color.


Sugar Cookie:  The light shade is a pale gold perfect for a base for gold glitter and eyeshadow, the darker shade is a pale pink fab shade goes will with a pinky brown look or on its own.


Berry Mix:  The lighter shade is a sheer lilac great for a base i wouldnt wear it on its own,  the darker shade is dark purple but sometimes looks plum in the sunlight..... even tho i love purples i wouldnt have this on on the top of my list......


Mocha Swirl:  The lighter shade on this  is fab its a pinkish-lilac i love this shade but does have alot of shimmer when it wears off a bit :) :) the darker shade is a browny shade and makes a good crease colour with normal eye-shadow.  both of these together doesnt work at all .........


Eggplant: The lighter shade is a grayish, dark green and the darker shade is a metallic purple.  Both with gold undertones.  This is one of the most pigmented duo....i love these shades :) :) this one i would recommend 


Blueberry:    has a light blue but appears to be more silver in photos and a dark navy blue/indigo with silver sparkles.  I actually like these as normally blues are not for me as i have hazel eyes but these shades i can work with they are very highly pigmented lovely on the eye together :) 


Black Licorice:  I love this one i use this with my e.l.f Brightening eye color quad in "Drama"  these really work well together.....Smokey eye eat your heart out what more do you need anyway......The Darker tone is a black shade with silver sparkle going through it it also has a wee bit of a blue tone in it.....the lighter side is a grey/silver i found it very sparkly but wearable :) 


Olive:  When i first got this i looked at the two shades and thought hmmmmmm i dunno bout this one........but believe me if you have hazel eyes this really makes your eyes pop....i mean now i have big hazel eyes and with this on and a little black liner wowzer :) :) ok the brown shade looks a bit on the icky side on the swatches but with its gold sparkle it looks well on the eye the green is more of a lime green it too has golden undertone to it in my opinion i like it but it wont be for everyone :) 
 " Butter Pecan, Coffee & Cream, Sugar cookie, Berry Mix & Mocha Swirl"  in natural light 
 " Butter Pecan, Coffee & Cream, Sugar cookie, Berry Mix & Mocha Swirl"  in sunlight 

"Eggplant" in natural light 
"Eggplant" in sunlight

"Blueberry, Black Licorice & olive swatches in Daylight 

"Blueberry, Black Licorice & Olive swatches in Sunlight 


My overall opinion:  These babies are a really good collection to have....They can make a really good look even using one shade from one duo and a 2nd shade from another duo.....You can get a smokey eye or just a normal everyday look......i apply these with my finger as some of the need a little heat to soften them if you have them stored in a cool place but if you have them stored in a warm place be cautious they can go very soft and you could get way too much on your finger......they are super creamy and a little goes a long way i wouldnt advise to use a whole lot as they will crease if your overload.....i mainly use these as a base for my eyeshadow and they are excellent for intensifying your normal eyeshadows......
I do find if you wear these on their own they will crease so i would advise to use a good primer and you will find they will last a good 6-8 hours depending on how oily your lids are......I have purchased higher brand cream shadows before and e.l.f has topped some of them.  


so for the price they are why dont you try one see what you think :) :)


ok chics thats me done hope this was helpful and please leave a comment let me knoe if you have any and what you think of them 


until next time 
take care 
lots of Irish kisses

e.l.f Matte Lip Color review

This convenient jumbo sized lip pencil creates exact color application with twist up ease so you never have to sharpen. The pigment rich color glides on effortlessly and easily to provide long lasting matte color. The enriched Vitamin A, C & E formula moisturizes and hydrates lips for beautiful healthy looking lips. by e.l.f 


As seen on Seventeen magazine these unfortunately are only available on the US site but are said to be coming to the UK site soon :) 
on the US site they cost $3 so hopefully when they reach the UK site that means they should cost £3.50/€4 


There are 4 available shades in these & i have 3/4 my 4th one i own is the one up for grabs in my competition :) :) so i cant review it as i have not tried it :) i will hopefully conclude my collection soon by getting the last remaining one :) 


e.l.f Matte Lip Color in "Natural, Praline & Coral" 
The Fact that im officially an e.l.f-a-holic when i seen these i just had to get them and where theres a will theres a way in my eyes :) ;).  Curiosity just got the better of me honestly i have a problem BUT ITS A GOOD PROBLEM PEOPLE IF I DIDNT GET THEM THEN I JUST COULDNT TELL YOU ABOUT THEM COULD I HAHA 
anyway back to the review :).

As i said before there are 4 available shades and i have 3 of thoses shades which are: 

+

Praline:   This is kind of a pinky beige nude at first it looked more burgundy its depending how much or how little you put on your lips and how dark or light your own natural lip colour is.  This is perfect for people who are light/medium skin tone.....this is a great shade to wear out in the town.....its highly pigmented i love it.

Coral:  This one is a coral nude can give an orangey pay off again depending on your own natural lip colour ,  this one would be my least favourite i dont think the shade suit me but of course everyone is different still lovely i will use it but maybe lightly with some gloss over it :)


Natural:  This shade is a creamy pinky nude......this is my favourite i love this with a clear or slightly pink gloss over it and for some reason it makes my lips look fuller Angelina Jolie eat your heart out baby :) 


As you can see they come in a lip liner form only alot thicker than a lip liner when you twist them you get a goo amount of product,  what i would like to see is these in a lipstick form.   Your getting 1.8 grams in these half the size of a lipstick but for the price im not complaining :) they are fun and original :)  plus while i was playing around with them i found a hidden item :) which was exciting as i didnt realise they had this and here it is:


A hidden sharpener on the top now how cool is that 
So whats my over all opinion on these.... Well i love them because they are affordable.  Highly highly pigmented a little goes along way.  So So easy to apply super creamy and is not one bit hard on your lips.   Like i cant get over how soft these are on my lips.  The colour doesn't dry out your lips even tho they are matte but if you are a gloss person a little gloss over it is no harm and looks really well over them.   Its enriched with vitamin A, C & E so its nice to know they are good for your lips ....There is no scent whatsoever :) i love that....  
So i bet your wondering what the cons are well i dont really have any any but if i had to pick out some maybe the fact there is only 4 shades available thats about it girls. :) 

"Praline"

"Coral"

"Natural"


So thats it ladies thats my review on these fab Matte Lip Colors from e.l.f.  in all they will be worth buying when they come to the UK site but they are available on the US site so anyone who is able to buy them i recommend them with a shadow of doubt.... i hope you enjoyed my review and as i said before i have 3/4 shades the missing shade is "Tea Rose" which i gave up for my Big Giveaway a while back is said to be a big hit too im hoping to order this now as they are on sale on eyelipsface.co.uk for only £1 just for a limited time so get ordering now girls. 


can i also add i bought these out of my own pocket and as i always say this is my own opinion but i hope it has shed so light into the product and maybe when they are available for you to buy you will be more educated in what your buying.


until next time

lots of Irish kisses your way

e.l.f Conditioning Lip Balm Review



With the e.l.f. Conditioning Lip Balm, lips get treated to a sheer splash of color that’s super smooth, velvety soft and non-sticky. Not only are these sheer, natural shades beautiful, they’re also beneficial, with natural ingredients that condition dry, chapped lips including Vitamins A & E. SPF 15 to protect delicate lips against harmful sun damage. By e.l.f 

There are 6 different shades of these balms( i have 5) they are retailing at £3.95/$3.50 each and you can purchase them off 


"Blissful Berry, Bombshell Brown, Peaceful Pink, Mellow Melon and Nice & Natural "
Blissful Berry;  This is a warm rosy berry shade.  The shade is sheer but gives a great colour payoff,  I find it quite pigmented but controllable meaning if your want it darker just keep layering it......I find it compliments my lips really well. 

Bombshell Brown:  This shade is a brownish nude with micro shimmer even though its not noticeable on the lips.....this is one of my favourites..... I love the way it brightens up my lips leaving them noticeable moisturised

Peaceful Pink:  This is a baby pink shade not as sheer as the first two,  this one is very pigmented and wouldn't really be one of my favourites but I still like it...... 

Mellow Melon:  This shade looks coral peachy in the pot but I find it looks more pink on my lips , its semi sheer still looks lovely on the lips and is another one of my favourites :) 

Nice & Nude:  This one is top on my list :) by far the nicest shade in my opinion........This balm is glossy and is a light nude...but doesn't make your lips love like corpse lips......this is so natural and yet so fulfilling to apply to my lips I find myself reaching for this one the most its hard to find a nude lippie that will compliment your lips but not any more :) :) thanks to e.l.f 

"Blissful Berry, Bombshell Brown, Peaceful Pink, Mellow Melon and Nice & Natural "

Your get 7.5 g from each pot with is unbelievably big for the price you are paying.......when I seen these I could not wait to get my hands on them....I bought 1 first just to see if I liked them and ass you can see i was sold the minute i tried it.......the pot fills the palm of my hand and is handy in the handbag "Well you wont be afraid you will lose it :)" one of these alone will last you like forever :) I'm a lip balm/gloss gal so I will definitely have no chance of leaving one of these aside for too long......one thing I like is my lips feeling moisturised and i have to say these babies do their job right and not only that they give your lips a wake up call!!!!!!

The balms smell to me like coconut so if you don't mind that your flying :) :)  but be warned you will definitely need a compact mirror with you when applying these as they are well pigmented and you don't want to go round looking like a 2 year old applied the balm on you lol :)  I have found that these will last from about 2- 4 hours depending on drinking eating etc.  these glosses are not one bit sticky and you can apply lightly or heavy whatever way you decided they are still going to give a good colour payoff....

 

As i said above i have 5/6 I'm missing the last one on the list with is "Romantic rouge" in which I did have but it has mysteriously disappeared hhhmmmmmm I wonder where :) :) any ways I will purchase it again and post up swatches of it soon........so do I think you should purchase one or more of these HELL YE you would spend alot more money on a lip balm stick and only get 1/4 of what you are getting in these plus these conditioning lip balms has SPF15 in them now what more would you be looking for :) 

So that's it ladies hope you enjoyed my review if you did spread the word :) :) 
I'm hoping my reviews and pictures help you in your decisions on either you would like to try  or not 

until next time 
lots of Irish kisses 
Love Nina xoxoxoxox
