REVIEW: Maybelline Colour Drama

 

As soon as I saw Lily Melrose compare these to the higher end lip crayons I thought I'd snap up a few of these colour drama's from Maybelline. I've got Nude Perfection which I think is a great browny nude I wear all the time and also Love my Pink which is a very hot pink colour which isn't so wearable on my skin so I have to tone it down a little. 

I really love these because they aren't drying, actually they're quite velvety and feel really nice on the lips. They have quite a good colour range which I really like - I spent ages picking out my favourites! 

I've never tried a high end lip product so I don't how these compare but these are so high quality and I would definitely recommend them to anyone!

Classic


Tunic: Topshop Trousers: Topshop (similar) Fur Cardigan: H&M Necklace: Forever21 Shoes: H&M Bag: Dorothy Perkins






I love being able to dress up and dress down outfits, like with this white high neck tunic. It's so effortlessly chic and classic, and I love pairing it simple items to wear casually. It's a lot longer on me than it should be, but that's only cos I'm very short. Shout out to all you 5'3 and under girls out there!

I've really gotten into gold jewellery over silver recently because it really warms up an outfit, which is great for these colder months, so I paired it with a really simple and elegant necklace that I think compliments it so well.

My Go To Red Lip





If I've been wearing red lips recently it has definitely been this combination of lipsticks.

When I went to Venice earlier this year I popped into Kiko Cosmetics and I picked up this really beautiful red lipstick in the shade 909? There isn't a name on the bottom but it says 909 so I'm guessing that is the shade! Wearing this on it's own is a little troublesome for me because it rubs off so easily but it's such a pretty dark red colour.

In my mad rush to acquire some lipsticks for my sudden obsession I picked up a Sleek matte lipstick in the shade Dare, which is really deep burgundy colour. It's quite drying on the lips - the matte colour goes on dry and it stays dry! 

I really wanted to wear the perfect red lip on a night out I had not too long ago so I put both of these on and they balance each other out so well! Mix together a really hard to budge lipstick with a smudge off with a whirl of wind lipstick and you have the perfect stay all day lip colour. Also, the mix of the deep red and dark burgundy makes my all time perfect shade and I am just in love!

What's your favourite lip colour of the moment?
