This is the Bikini that I ended up getting from Victorias Secret. It is a neon purple top with blue and purple tie dye. It is really different from what I originally wanted but I love them and I think I made a good purchase with these.

Sorry for taking so long to make this post I have just been really busy. Anywho, what do you think ? Do you love them as much as I do ?

Until next time ;)

Makeup Collection : Lips

I really wanted to do a makeup collection but I feared that that post would end up being extremely long, so I have decided to do it in parts after type. So as you can see, I am kicking it off with Lips. Today I am going to show you all of my lip products. Now that is from lip balms to glosses to stains and what not. So lets get started :)

Lip Glosses

Cupcake, Melonrageous

I have two Beauty Rush lip glosses from Victorias Secret, the shimmery pink one is called Cupcake and it is my go to everyday lip gloss. The other one is a lot brighter and is called Melonrageous, the name does not lie. It tastes exactly like melon. I really like the color but the taste is a little to overpowering for my liking. The Beauty Rush lip glosses are sticky which I don't mind.

mini of Naked

This lip gloss came with my Naked 2 palette and it is a Lip Junkie in the color Naked. I love this lip gloss. When you put it on it cools your lips and plumps them. The color is also very universal and would look good with a lot of different skin tones.

Lip Smacker, Soap Opera Queen

My next two and final lip glosses are my favorite, I think. The lip smacker one is pretty worn out so I don't know the name of it but it is a very pretty peachy pink that I wear all the time. My next and only NYX lip gloss is a extremely sparkly bright pink called Soap Opera Queen. This lip gloss is so pigmented so what it looks like is how it applies.

Lip Balm

Strawberry, Pink Punch

I only have two Lip balms. The first one is a Born Lippy from the Body Shop in the color Strawberry and I have to say even though it look really beat up, I don't use it that much anymore. But it is a great product none the less. Now for my other lip balm is my Maybelline Baby Lips and I can't tell you how much I love this thing. It smells so good, the color is Pink Punch and ahh I just love it to death. This thing lives in my purse I always have it with me.

Lip Stick and Liners

Swatches : Hot Shot, Berry and Clueless

The next thing I am going to show you are my Topshop lip Products. I absolutely love Topshop makeup, the quality is great and the Packaging is so pretty. I have two lip markers in the colors Hot shot and Berry. They are the best thing ever, they are super pigmented and they stay on your lips for such a long time. I also have one lip stick, which isn't even a lip stick more like a chubby lip pencil but whatever. The color is called Clueless and it is a bright hot pink. The color is actually inspired by the movie Clueless (best movie ever) and I love it, it looks so good on.

The nude lip pencil

I have one lip liner and it is from smashbox. It is just your basic nude lip pencil and I use it almost everyday to fill and define my lips.

Pink Punch.

I really only have one lip stick and it is from Maybelline. It is a color sensational lipstick in the color nr. 175 Pink Punch. I never really wear lipstick but when I do, I like to do a bold lip and this deep fucsia color is perfect for that. I love the consistency of this lip stick it isn't to wet but it isn't drying.

Strawberry Shortcake, Berry Smoothie

I actually just got these today, and I new I had to include them here. I have only tried them once but they are Great. The colors look so good on your lips and they are so smooth. One thing that surprised me was that they have no taste or smell. But over all they are so great and I am so happy that I finally got my hands on them.

the end

So that concludes my lip product collection. If you liked something you saw or if you are just curious about something please let me know, so I can do a review of any of these products.

So what part of my collection do you want to see next ?
