I just had to include the last picture! I was positioning the camera when a cat sat on my garden gate caught my eye and I accidentally pressed the little camera icon that took the photo. I do love the Korres 'Wild Rose' Lip Butter even if I don't look as though I do!


These are my top five lip colours - they're the colours I always have stashed in my bag and the ones that I reach for the most. Some are recent additions that I can't live without and some are ones I have been using for months now... Maybe longer.


A/W12 saw the rise of the berry lip, which I embraced whole-heartedly. On the other hand I do still love a nude look for when the eyes are doing the talking instead of the mouth and obviously pink is wearable all year round.



So in no particular order they are as follows:


MAC 'MAGNETIQUE' LIPGLASS - REVIEW - BUY
I was lucky enough to win this as a giveaway prize from my gorgeous friend Islay. This is the perfect pop of blue-toned hot pinkness. The formula is really pigmented and there is a very subtle shimmer. It's a daring colour that I use when I want to boost my confidence. I heart it so much!

ESTEE LAUDER 'BRILLIANT BARE' PURE COLOR LIPSTICK - REVIEW - BUY
How could I not include an Estee Lauder lipstick in this line up? My go-to higher end brand has come up trumps with this amazing nude colour that contains a hint of shimmer and enough hydration to keep my lips looking perfect all day and into the night.

RIMMEL LASTING FINISH BY KATE MOSS LIPSTICK IN '101' - REVIEW - BUY
I've never been the biggest Rimmel fan in the world - a few products have let me down in the past. These lipsticks, this one being the first of two in this Top 5, are the brand's saving grace. This is a light blue-toned pink that literally matches any outfit. It's feminine and easy to wear - what more could I want?

RIMMEL LASTING FINISH BY KATE MOSS LIPSTICK IN '107' - REVIEW - BUY
From the moment my amazing friend Lisa bought me this lipstick I have been head over heels for it. There is no doubt that if one lipstick has made it into the majority of the beauty blogging world's shopping baskets it is this one. It screams out to be worn as it sums up the berry and plum trend of this autumn and winter to perfection - and even Dave loves it on me, so how could I not include it?

KORRES 'WILD ROSE' LIP BUTTER - REVIEW - BUY
As tinted lip balms and butters go this is the product I would place at the top of the list. Its a subtle pink-red that can be built up to provide the intensity that you want to it to. It's not sticky, conditions the lips so that they're smooth and soft and smells incredible. It's love.

  3. I've heard a lot about the Kate Rimmel lipsticks but never actually tried them! Beautiful colours! The sleek lip butter is also quite similar to the Korres one I think!
