OOTN - Coral Jeans - Colour Blocking Trend

Saturday, 21 May 2011

Hey girlies, hope y'all having a fabulous weekend. I havent got up to a whole bunch (which is bank-balance friendly!) but a little dull as i dont have many stories for you!

I did however pop to the local last night for a quick drink with the bf and some friends. Lots of discussions took place about our upcoming trip to Download Festival; food and drink being of main concern. I'm thinking of doing my ultimate festival survival guide before i go (i've had to compile one for some of the girls at work who are going to their first ever festival this year!) there's alot of these type of posts floating around at the mo so i'm not sure whether y'all need another one or not?! Hmmm...

Anyways, now onto my OOTN from last night's pub shenanigans:






... sorry the pics arent the best, the bf didnt want to take them and then i didnt want to pose with him being grumpy n all :/ lol ...


New boots - look pretty but gave me awful blisters on the balls of my feet and i have been hobbling around like an invalid alllll day :(


Leather studded jacket: sooo old!
Pale pink vest top: Primark
Feather necklaces: Primark
Bracelets:Primark
Coral Jeans: eBay shop
Fur Lined Buckle boots: eBay shop

What are your fave colour-blocking items? Have you got any deadly shoes that you repeatedly wear even though they kill?!

Do you believe in Magic?! *Barry M Lip Paint Review*

Sunday, 1 May 2011

Who'd have thought i'd ever buy a GREEN lipstick!!?



I recently received Barry M's catalogue in the post and while excitedly flicking through the glossy pages i spied this - Touch of Magic Lip Paint and here's how Barry himself describes it:

"A green lipstick that turns pink! The natural alkali level of your lips will determine just how pale or rich the shade of pink will be. A perfect long-lasting lip paint that's waterproof for day long wear."

I love a gimmick and totally knew i had to try this! Ive had it in my watched items on eBay for a couple of weeks but have never checked out. Today while in Boots curiosity got the better of me and i tossed it into my basket :)

(By the way have you seen my eBay listing tab above - i list new stuff every week so check it out for some bargains!)

Anyways, lets get on with the review....

First up is the packaging. I havent bought any of the Barry M Lip Paints before, actually i  have never given them so much as a glance! so i was really impressed with the sleek black casing and secure lid. Reminds me of both MAC and Sleek lip products.



The garish green of the lipstick bullet is very off-putting - reminds me of Halloween and witches! When swatched it first came out clear *surprising, no?!* and the colour slowly develops into a sweet pink shade (when swatched on my skin the colour is much softer than on my lips)



I love both the 'reveal' colours. I adore the cute light pink colouring on my skin and would be very happy with a lip colour in that shade. I am equally as pleased with the outcome when used on my lips - its a rich berry pink colour which i have recently come to learn is my most suited shade of pink.

excuse the hair - i was lounging in bed while the bf played games

The Lip Paint slicks on well with ease and is very long-lasting. I also found this fairly moisturising (i have a real problem with lipsticks drying out my lips and leaving me with flaky colouring, boo)

I also put on a dab of concealer onto my lips and then tried it out to see if the colour differs and the result was as predicted a slightly lighter pink although this didnt last long and the colour drifted back to the berry shade.

slightly lighter shade of pink :)

I have come across a couple of downsides to this product unfortunately. Firstly is that the colour smudges very easily and is extremely difficult to remove - you may see in my photos the smudging around my lips, it looks like ive been drinking cherryade and have a cherry moustache! Not a good look. Secondly is the smell/taste. It reminds me of the cheap lipsticks you used to buy as a kid/tween - quite plasticy.

Overall i am very pleased with this product and think i'll get a lot of use out of it. I love the idea of colour change product and hope to see more like these in the future. Plus for £4.49 its a bargain.

Next on my Barry M Lip Paint wishlist is Pink Glitter :)
