Day 22



Napoleon Perdis DéVine Goddess Lipstick Calypso 

Napoleon Perdis DéVine Goddess Lipstick in Calypso is a deep fuchsia pink. This richly pigmented shade has wonderful staying power and its luxurious formula feels so comfortable on the lips! If you have fair skin Calypso is the perfect deep pink to flatter your complexion.




Day 23 




OXX Studio Lip Gloss 01 Piper 



OXX Studio Lip Gloss in shade 01 Piper is a peachy pink liquid lip with an opaque and glossy finish. This shade is pigmented enough to wear as a lipstick. Plus it's only $4, so it's very affordable.

Day 24


W7 Cosmetics Lipstick Neon Purple 


W7 Liptember lipstick in Neon Purple is a deep vibrant purple. This on trend shade is very similar to Pantone's 2018 colour of the year Ultra Violet. Take a walk on the wild side with this W7 Lipstick.

W7 Cosmetics is available at Chemist Warehouse  www.chemistwarehouse.com.au

Day 25



OXX Cosmetics Matte Liquid Lipstick + Lipliner  Pink

This Matte Liquid Lipstick and Lipliner set from OXX Cosmetics is only $5. This shade is a dusky peachy pink which looks very brown on my lips. The lipliner is a soft pretty pink! This is no Kylie lipkit, but for a cheap drug store brand it's good. My only wish for this product is a shade name! No where on the box or product could I find the shade name - and I looked! I did find this product on the Kmart website, so I think this shade is simply called Pink.

OXX Cosmetics is available at Kmart Australia  www.kmart.com.au 



Day 26 


DB Cosmetics Longwear Lipstick Sugar Blossom 


DB longwear lipstick is a traditional bullet style lipstick with a long wearing matte formula. Sugar Blossom is a pretty dusty pink shade which I love, however I don't love this lipstick's matte finish. When I wear this shade, I always add a lipgloss over the top. Today's gloss is Purfectly Chic by Kate Heussler Lip Gloss in Swiss Alps. It's a clear gloss with lots of shimmer and high shine!



Day 27 



Napoleon Perdis DéVine Goddess Lipstick Aphrodite

NP DéVine Goddess Lipstick in Aphrodite is a classic red. Napoleon's richly pigmented signature lipstick is sophisticated glamour at its best. "When in doubt wear red." This timeless shade is classy and chic.  



Day 28



Perfectly Chic Lip Gloss Miami Nights 

This super glossy lip is thanks to Perfectly Chic Lip Gloss by Kate Heussler in Miami Nights. This pretty peach lip gloss shade is super shimmery and glossy. It's one of my favourite lips glosses because you can wear it alone and it always looks gorgeous.




Day 29 



ulta3 Moisturising Lipstick green magic

Ulta3 moisturising lipstick in the shade green magic looks green but transforms into a pretty pink on the lips! This magical lipstick reacts to the PH level in your skin, so everyone gets a pretty shade unique to them! For me this lipstick is a very vibrant pink and it's super long lasting on the lips! I bought this lipstick for fun, but I was actually surprised how good it was! And it's only $4.25!

Day 30 



Ben Nye Lipstick Marilyn Red LS 33

Ben Nye was a Makeup Director for 20th Century Fox during the old Hollywood film industry and worked as Marilyn's makeup artist on many of her films. Ben Nye Lipstick in Marilyn Red LS33 is his tribute to Marilyn Monroe! This is the perfect lipstick to achieve Marilyn's signature red lips!

My Favourite Lime Crime Lipsticks


My Favourite Lime Crime Lipsticks 

Coquette
This is my all time favourite Lime Crime lipstick shade. Lime Crime describes this as pale peachy nude. I would say this is a pastel nude with a peachy under tone. It's flattering on most skin tones and looks amazing on bronze skin. Paired with a pale nude lipliner and you have one of the best nude lipsticks ever! 


 

Great Pink Planet 
This was the first Lime Crime lipstick I purchased and its the one I've worn the most. It's a Malibu Barbie pink, Lime Crime describes this electric shade as a pastel pink with a neon note. It's very vibrant and bright strawberry milkshake pink with a subtle purple undertone. This perfectly pink shade suits fair to medium skin tones and it's one of Lime Crime's most popular lipstick shades. 


 


Countessa Fluorescent 
This is the brightest Lime Crime lipstick in my collection. Lime Crime describes Countessa Fluorescent as a cool based neon pink. It's very vibrant with a strong neon hue. This shade is a very fun colour to wear and looks great in summer with matching bright neon clothing. I love wearing this shade with demure, minimal makeup to really make the lips pop. If you're confident give this colour a go you, won't be disappointed. 


 

Centrifuschia
This bright, bold shade is the most wearable colour in my Lime Crime lipstick collection. Centrifuchsia is described as a bright fuchsia and it's a very sophisticated mature pink. This modern hot pink and can also be used as a lip stain with a light layer of gloss applied over the top. It's very long lasting and adds a vibrancy to any outfit. Don't be afraid to try this bold shade, it's very flattering on fair, medium and dark skin tones. Out of all the Lime Crime lipsticks I own, this shade is by far the most flattering on my skin tone. 

 

Airborne Unicorn 
This colour is Lime Crime's signature shade. It's a medium purple with a neon note and it's hue is as mysterious as the unicorn itself. I love Airborne Unicorn it's such a fun colour to wear. There is 3 purple shades in Lime Crime's range of lipstick and this one is my favourite. If you're looking for a vibrant, strong purple with a cool lavender undertone then this lipstick is for you. It's very hard to find true purple lipsticks, most brands offer mauve lipsticks but Lime Crime are the first brand to offer such great selection of purple shades. 

 

Retrofuturist 
This retro red is flattering on all skin tones. Don't be afraid to express your inner Marilyn Monroe by wearing this bright, true red. It's such a universal shade and one of Lime Crime's most popular reds. I love wearing red lipstick in winter and this red is bold, vibrant and rich. It's a statement red which is sure to stop traffic. Be bold wearing Retrofuturist. Every woman should own a red lipstick and this is one of the best reds I've ever tried.
