Topshop Lipsticks = Lush!

I've seen loads of blog posts over the last year or so about Topshop make up and there are things I've really fancied trying but it wasn't until a fortnight ago I actually went into a store to have a look at the range myself...only to find my local doesn't stock it! I hadn't realised that the range was only available in larger stores which is a shame. You can however order online which for some reason didn't occur to me! Anyway, I did get my hands on a few bits and I wanted to blog first of all about the lipsticks because I'm in love! The textures are wonderful, the colours are wonderful, I love the packaging the prices are reasonable at £8 so they won't break the bank. It's that price bracket that I find reassuring as well, not so cheap that my snobby brain automatically categorises them as crap, but not so expensive I wouldn't pay to buy them without trying first (buying online).  So yes I'm impressed. I received three gorgeous shades

Brighton Rock a gorgeous satin/matte hot pink with not too many blue undertones
 Infrared, a velvet finish orange.
and Innocent, a soft pretty pink.
Swatched in that order below.
And on?

All gorgeous and I love them all, although Innocent is hard to make work on me, but is the perfect pink for a grey smoky eye. Very nice!

Pleasantly surprised by these and will be looking for swatches of other colours online so I can order some other colours!

  4. I am lucky that I can get to Topshop makeup providing I do not go on a Saturday when it is all a bit grubby. These look like great textures in these pics. Thanks for this. x
