Barry M lip paint in 52 Shocking pink

Barry M Lip Paint in shade 52, Shocking Pink: £4.49

This colour is definitely not for the faint hearted. It's the first lip paint from Barry M that I've tried and it's a little drying, which is apparently quite common for the Barry M lip paints. I do find that matte lipsticks have more staying power and ended up just topping this up with a clear gloss later on in the day (that snap can be seen on my instagram: elegantcha0s). It's a bright blue toned neon pink that would definitely not suit all skin tones, but if your daring enough the colour is spot on for summer and the price is perfect too. 

Gosh Mandarina Lipstick

Gosh Velvet Touch Lipstick in 152 Mandarina: £6.49

Peachy orange lipsticks are a shade that I didn't have in my collection until I picked this one up in Superdrug. I'm not familiar at all with the Gosh brand and this is the first of their products I've tried. The packaging is very slick which for me is always a winner too. I was browsing the Superdrug website and this isn't actually available on there, but you can definitely get it at the Gosh counter at your local Superdrug.

Mandarina is a nude peach that is opaque in a few swipes. The formula is so lovely and very pigmented. It's the perfect level of creamy and very hydrating. I've been reaching for this so much recently in the heat, partly because it's perfect for my 'barely there' make up look and because even as it fades after about 3-4 hours it leaves a lovely peachy tint on the lips.
