Friday Favourites - Lipsticks

Lips are such a prominent feature on the face, here at the Amazing Blog we love ours to stand out and ooze confidence. We have chosen a few of our favourite lip products to perfect that pout.

For gorgeous, amplified lips look no further, Rouge Bunny Rouge has you covered with their Swell Bliss XXX Lip Plump Gloss and Sweet Excesses Glassy Gloss.

Whether it’s an intense plump your after or a just a glossy enhancement, these glosses will cater for you. The XXX Lip Plump will give you the Angelina Jolie pout in one application, due to the natural Volulip active, an ingredient with the same power as lip filler injections and other benefits of the gloss include anti-ageing and antioxidant properties. If that hasn’t excited you enough, we also tried out the Glassy Gloss in shades Fleur Parfait and Cherry Clafoutis. These felt moisturising and luxurious on the lips without a sticky finish. The use of Rose Seed Extract and Vitamin E works together to also provide anti-ageing and rejuvenating properties. We loved the pearl finish that gave our lips some extra sparkle. If you want the perfectly plumped pout of your dreams, get your own Rouge Bunny Rouge glosses here for £21.08 and here £20.36.  

If you can’t choose between lipgloss and lipstick, if you like a shiny final touch but also a rich and bulky colour, Lipstains Gold from Ultra Glow Cosmetics is the best choice. Lately lip stains have become really popular but to be honest with you we couldn’t really find one product who wouldn’t give us dried lips, but Lipstains Gold with its new formula seems to be something completely innovative.
It’s not just waterproof but also contains moisturising ingredients that will keep your lips soft and kissproof all day long.

The range of shades suits every occasion. We personally love Rose and Red so easy to wear, with a touch of sheer; they definitely plump up our lips and make us feel very feminine. Peony that we like as much, is the best ladylike shade we’ve ever seen with a matte finish.
They’re all available at £5.99 here.

Now if you are more of a matte finish girl, Urban Decay’s new Matte Revolution Lipsticks will be your new best friend. We had the opportunity to try colours Tilt, Bad Blood and After Dark, each colour was extremely pigmented and super creamy. Once you’ve finished admiring the gorgeous colour in the mirror, you’ll notice that even as they dry to a matte finish your lips still retain their moisture. We made the mistake of leaving swatches to dry on our hands, and soon found out that it has some serious staying power!

From the colours we tried, there is one to fit everyone, Tilt is an extremely bright orange-toned red, while Bad Blood is an intense, blue-toned red. For those who are more adventurous, After Dark is a gorgeous deep plum with purple reflects which give it a beautiful sheen in the light. Bring out your matte side, get these creamy lipsticks here for only £15.50.   

We have found our new must-have product of the season, Lip Matters Velvet matte cream. Intense and vibrant pigmentation which will give you a bold and luscious pout, ready for you to hit the town.

Available in 8 different shades, we tried ‘That’ll Peach You’ and ‘Wham Bam Thank You Jam’ and absolutely adored the daring and vibrant look it gave us. With a creamy texture when first applied to your lips, the cream sets quickly into a matte finish giving you an enviable pout. These products are also a bargain costing only £3.99 each.

Magic Lips

We girls here at The Amazing Blog are a bunch of self-confessed beauty junkies. Barely a day goes by when we're not hard at work (ahem!) sourcing the latest beauty must-haves for our followers. And, of course, it's not exactly a hardship testing and trialling all the fabulous products we feature on The Amazing Blog. Whether it's soaking in the latest bubble bath, de-frizzing our manes with a new hair serum or de-clogging our pores with an indulgent face mask, there's always a willing volunteer!

Thus, when we came across Magic Lips, I was first to offer myself up as guinea pig for this innovative range of lipsticks. Created by Ultra Glow Cosmetics, Magic Lips is a paraben-free, long-lasting lipstick that is swim-proof, kiss-proof and sports-proof. Unlike many other lipsticks, which often have a drying effect, Magic Lips has a unique conditioning formula that leaves your pout soft and supple.

Magic Lips come in a huge range of colours and the innovative ingredients mean that the lipstick changes colour according to your PH, creating the perfect shade unique to you. We tried the Green Magic Lips, and while it was rather daunting applying a bottle green shade to my lips, it soon changed to a lovely hue of rose pink.

So, if you're tired of hunting for a shade that suits you, check out Magic Lips for the perfect lipstick!
