    Autumn Lipstick Picks


    The weather is absolutely freezing and I'm loving every minute, we're well an truly into autumn meaning there's no stopping us from breaking out those old favourites from last year and also gives us an excuse to buy more autumn lipsticks yay!

    When picking out my favourite autumn lipsticks I noticed that they were all products which I've purchased recent, I must have been subconsciously thinking about autumn all summer! So here are my favourites for this season!

    I love the Laura Mercier Creme Smooth Lipsticks, they're incredibly pigmented and so comfy to wear all day! Sienna is a dark red shade with a hint of plum (it reminds me of MAC Diva). 

    I was after this lipstick for so long before i got it purely because I love warm browns! Light or dark I need them all! This deep chocolate brown is perfect for this season! For a full review on the lip kits click here.

    As much as I love the plum shades, a trusty nude is always welcome! My favourite recently is Crushed Pecan! It's a brownish nude and wears so comfortably on the lips!

    I think this might just be my favourite of them all. It's no secret that Tom Ford lipsticks are quite pricey as far as lipsticks go, but personally I think they're worth every penny. I wore this out the other night for a meal, wine was flowing (of course) and when I looked at my glass there was no transfer! I was so shocked! But it didn't survive my food unfortunately.

    Kylie Jenner Lip Kits: Thoughts and Feels


    Yep, I jumped on the Kylie Cosmetics bandwagon. After hearing amazing things, good things, bad things and terrible things I took it into my own hands to buy them myself and make my own opinion. 

    First things first, ordering. Exposed was definitely the shade I wanted the most I love warm nudes so I added this straight to my basket without having to wait for it to be restocked, I also added True Brown  K whilst I was ordering Exposed too. So overall ordering was fine I didn't have to wait until the shades I wanted were restocked. 


    Delivery. Nightmare. I ordered them on the 5th August and they weren't dispatched until the 11th which isn't too bad. So I waited for them to be delivered and I was so excited I was constantly checking the tracking. On the 25th of August the tracking said my parcel had been delivered to my address, but my lip kits were nowhere to be seen. In a blind panic I emailed customer services who replied straight away and told me to wait as the tracking might be too fast. My lip kits arrived 4 days later and I had to pay around £16 customs fee's (sigh). But waiting 24 days for a delivery? Come on?

    Despite the long delivery time I do love the products. The lip liners are so creamy and so pigmented, however my Exposed lip liner was faulty (like there was less product in it?) than the True Brown K one. I've seen other people have this issue which I think is a bit annoying that they've still not resolved this but it's not a major problem to me, my life isn't in tatters because of it. 

    I love both both lip kits I like the formula of them and how long they last. I wore exposed one day and just had to top it up after I ate but it lasted really really well.


    Overall I love them, I just think delivery time could be better. I only say this because I ordered a Morphe 35O palette earlier this year from the Morphe website and it was delivered within a week to my house in the UK from America, so it is possible. But other than that I love the products and I love wearing them.

    Let me know about your experiences purchasing your Kylie Cosmetics Lip Kits and what your favourite shades are in the comments! See you soon!
