Super Nude Lips for a Pastel Unicorn Princess



Hair: Colour Addict Spray in Hair Chalk in Lilac*
Top: Primark  | Skirt: New Look
Lips: Sleek Eau La La Lip Liner in Lingerie* & Sleek Lip VIP Lipstick in Icon* 




The title of this post is just a bit of fun really, although I would love to be a unicorn princess. I think I would make quite a good pastel princess, and, well, I think my inner spirit animal is definitely a unicorn. 

Sleek are one of the best brands for good quality lipsticks with a reasonable price tag in my opinion. I am all over the nude lipstick look (a little late to the party, but better late than never right?) and I've found three brilliant lip products to create a gorgeous nude lip. 
Sleeks' Goodnight Sweetheart collection includes this gorgeous new lipstick in Icon. It is a gorgeous deep  nude pink. The formulation of the lipstick is half matte, half velvet, and is super pigmented. I've worn this throughout the day and its lasted so well, even after eating and drinking it is still in place without any fading after several hours. 
The lip liner which is perfect to pair with this lippie is the Eau La La Liner in Lingerie. Being a slightly darker pink/brown nude, it matches really well with Icon, as well as the Sleek Lip Crayon in Notorious Nude - a true nude lip product which stays well on the lips and has some great staying power. It is so creamy and even gives a little tingling sensation when first applied to the lips. This is going to be my go-to lip crayon for Autumn/Winter.

Lip Liner Love





I have never really been a huge wearer of lip liner up until the last Year or so. I love a bold lip but am often too shy to try anything too bright or bold, so usually opt for a nude or pink lip. I was sent two lip liners from online store Mypure; a website which specialises in beauty, skin care and more made from natural and organic ingredients. If you have sensitive skin like I have, I would definitely recommend Mypure, as the products they stock do not contain any nasty chemicals and I have found every item I have tried from Mypure to be really gentle and not irritate my skin at all.

The first lip liner is the Living Nature Lip Liner in Laughter. The first thing I want to mention is this is incredibly soft when applying to the lips; there is nothing I dislike more than scratchy lip liners that are harsh and drag on the skin, so I would definitely recommend them if that is an annoyance of yours too! Second, the colour is a soft, rose pink and lasts a good few hours on the lips.

The second lip liner is the Inika Lip Liner in Sugar Plum. I absolutely love this colour and goes well with a lot of nude and pink lipsticks. The staying power for this product is really good, and doesn't bleed or wear off all that much throughout the day.

Both lip liners are available to purchase online at Mypure. Don't forget to follow Mypure on their social network platforms which are linked below, to keep up-to-date of all their offers!

Benecos Lip Liner



Hi everyone! It feels a little odd tapping away at a computer again, I had an impromptu break from blogging and I have missed writing my posts and talking to you all in the comments and on twitter a lot more than I expected. My blog has been a hobby of mine for the past four Years or so, it is definitely something I want to keep working at and improving on, so thank you for all of your continued support. Also, apologies for my awful camera skills!

Today I am sharing my thoughts on a lip liner by Benecos, in the shade brown. This lip liner is super affordable and costs only £3.95 from Mypure online. The brand Benecos make BDIH certified and natural products with beneficial ingredients. They sell a range of make - up, body, hair and skin care. If you are into your natural beauty products, the brand Benecos is one you should definitely look out for.

The lip liner is very pigmented and is easy to apply; it isn't rough on the skin and applies very smoothly. It doesn't bleed throughout the day and stays put for around 4 hours.
The lip liner is a colour I wear a lot on the lips; it is a great nude and is perfect to pair up with a nude or pink lipstick, or even to wear alone. I am a big fan of how soft and creamy the formulation this lip liner has.

I have worn this alone as a full lip product, and as a lip liner paired with lipsticks. I feel it does help my lipstick to stay in place and give a more definitive look. I think for the price, this is a really good product I would recommend. I will definitely be checking out the other shades in their collection.

Have you got a favourite lip liner?

Perfect Nude Lip: Lipliners





It seems a lot of people have been loving the nude lip look this Winter, I haven't been brave enough in the past to create a bold nude lip, but recently I have been trying a few new lipsticks and lip liners which I think are worth mentioning to achieve a great nude lip. Today's post is going to be focused on two lip liners from MyPure that I have been using a lot and think they are a real staple for my nude lip look.

Firstly we have the Living Nature Lip Pencil in Woods. This is probably my favourite of the two. The product is very soft and creamy and applies well without drying the lips. The colour is a medium brown nude. I like this lip liner by both using it to line the lips as well as being an all over lip colour. This is a perfect nude lip liner as it suits all of my nude lipsticks, including more pink toned lipsticks. The staying power on this lip liner is great as it lasts around 5 or 6 hours without smudging.

We then have the Inika Lip Liner Pencil in Nude Delight. This nude is more of a light gold and shimmer nude, perfect to line the lips with for a bold nude lip and looks great for a night out. I really like the colour of this nude lip liner as it suits most nude lip product shades I have. This lip liner stays on the lips for around 3 or 4 hours.

Overall I would definitely recommend the Living Nature lip pencil in the shade Woods. I think this an all--rounder good lip pencil that defines the lips and helps to create a nude lip look. I also really like the Inika lip liner in Nude Delight, although I think the Living Nature lip liner does last longer on the lips.
I have been really loving both of these lip liners. What are your favourite lip products to achieve a nude lip look?

Inika Lip Liner in 03 Sugar Plum




Inika Lip Liner, Available from My Pure for £13.50 *currently £12.15*

I am sure you have all heard of the brand Inika before. They are a pure and natural make up brand which is certified cruelty free and is also a certified vegan make up brand. 
Inika products are stocked online at My Pure; an online store which stocks the best natural products. 
I have used an Inika Make up Brush before and I was really pleased with the quality, so I was keen to try another one of their products. 

Today I am featuring a lip product from Inika, which is the Inika Lip Liner Pencil. I am not usually one for lip liners and just chuck on my lipstick and often wonder why it always bleeds away from my lips, so thought I would venture out of my comfort zone and try out a lip liner. 
The packaging is very sleek and gorgeous. Cased in a protecting box, the black and gold colours make the product look classy and sophisticated.
The pencil feels really creamy and soft, which is something I find difficult in liner pencils as they are often harsh and drag on the skin, this one doesn't. It doesn't hurt my lips when applying so that is another bonus. 
The colour pigmentation is great and I find it really helps to keep any lipstick in place. I tend to apply alot of lip liner onto my lips as a sort - of base for the lipstick, then apply lipstick as normal over the top. For me, this method works really well and keeps my lips looking neat.

The colour 03 Sugar Plum is a really lovely nude/dark pink, which is perfect for every day wear. 

I am impressed overall with the staying power, the pigmentation of the colour and the quality of the liner in general. I would love to try other colours in their shade range of lip liners as this works really well with a lot of my lipsticks!
