yes! yes! yes! after 6 months searching for the mythical "candy-pink-geranium-infused-coral-fuchsia" which I dreamed into being within the recesses of my imagination - and could not find anywhere, for love nor money, despite having access to almost every beauty brand on the planet - I have finally found THE colour of my dreams... my brightest, happiest, most vivid dreams, in topshop's brighton rock - and wore it today with a big smile and a stripy dress in honour of the lippy's packaging. it's perfectly matte, and even a wee bit chalky (parfait!), stays put for hours (through a GBK burger & chips no less), and is set to be worn down to a stubby nub within a matter of weeks as I doubt I'll be seen in anything else for some time. i'm in love and boy oh boy, was it worth the wait.

I've ignored the TS lipsticks so far. I'm gna check this shade out. Looks nice.
ReplyDeletet'is lovely - better than i'd expected in terms of texture & staying power!
ReplyDeleteThat lipstick looks great on you! Is it more tangerine or fushia pink? I can't really tell and the lipstick itself looks more organge-y. Coudl you perhaps do a swatch / close-up on your wrist?
ReplyDeleteIs it drying or not? That's my main issue with lipsticks.
Take care! Lovely post, as always
it's more pink that tangerine - the colour on my lips is truer to the actual colour than the colour in the bullet... strange but true... wearing it again today... just LOVE it :) the topshop link shows a pretty true representation of the actual colour: http://www.topshop.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?beginIndex=0&viewAllFlag=&catalogId=19551&storeId=12556&categoryId=206989&parent_category_rn=206987&productId=1627975&langId=-1 - and thanks for reading! x
