PS...Metal Matte Liquid Lipstick Review Ft My Cat





During one of my very regular trips to Primark, I spotted these two liquid lipsticks. They reminded me of the Kylie Jenner Metals so I thought I would give them a go. I haven't tried any of the Kylie Jenner Cosmetics because I just don't want to pay the shipping cost if I'm honest, and I am quite happy with all the lip products available to us in the UK




Before I begin, I should probably explain why one of my cats (Kismet) is in these photos. Basically she wouldn't leave me alone so I decided to make her a feature. Besides, she's quite aesthetically pleasing if you ask me.



I tried to use her as a background but she's not big enough. Read this buzzfeed post for context.


The gold one was more metallic than the red. But both are pretty matte and are nice and shiny. The colours are pretty much spot on. They have quite a creamy consistency when you first apply them but then they go super dry.


Overall the colours are lovely and they smell lush, but I found them too drying. I would only use them to go over the top of a softer lip product to add some depth of colour. I wouldn't use them as a stand alone lipstick.
Hope you found this little post interesting/helpful! Let me know if you have tried these before?
Lots of Love,
Xanthe

Current ASOS Wish List Autumn 2016

                                         


Like many people, I love to have a late night browse on ASOS. There is just sooo much stuff on there. But I also find myself blindly scrolling and probably missing a few gems, so I tend to look at blog posts for a bit of inspo.


I like the idea of looking items that are a 'must have' for someone else but I may usually scroll over without a thought. So- here are a few things I have been lusting over the past few weeks. I have actually managed to purchase a couple of them too!
