A little while ago, when I posted about my lip collection (which you can read about here) I had a few people suggest that I do a post showing you my top ten lipsticks! As I was being far too picky (or not picky enough, I'm not really sure) I decided it might be easier to round it down to my favourite five lipsticks! This seemed a lot easier!
Illamasqua Lipstick in Flare, Revlon Lip Butter in Tutti Frutti, Australis Cosmetics Colour Inject Lipstick in Lick the Icing, Rimmel London Lasting Finish Lipstick in Guest List, Rimmel London Moisture Renew Lipstick in Nude Delight
Illamasqua Lipstick in Flare, Revlon Lip Butter in Tutti Frutti,
Australis Cosmetics Colour Inject Lipstick in Lick the Icing, Rimmel
London Lasting Finish Lipstick in Guest List, Rimmel London Moisture
Renew Lipstick in Nude Delight
Illamasqua Lipstick in Flare
I chose this as my absolute favourite lipstick based purely on the colour payoff. Flare is vibrant, crazy pigmented matte orange that stays put all day! Sadly, I find that Illamasqua lipsticks can get very dry, but the colour payoff is still a winner for me!
Revlon Lip Butter in Tutti Frutti
This is probably my most worn lip product ever. As you can probably tell, I love orange, and it was pretty difficult not to choose all orange products for this top five. (Although that gives me an idea for another post!) I love pairing the Revlon Lip Butter in Tutti Frutti with the Illamasqua Lipstick in Flare, to really make that orange pop, and to tone down a matted look into a glossier look! It's also fantastic to wear on it's own, and while sheer, can be built up a lot!
Australis Cosmetics Colour Inject Lipstick in Lick the Icing
Lick the Icing was a limited edition lipstick, but I think you can still find it floating about. I instantly fell in love with this pink, as it's so bright and girly! This has quickly become one of my most worn pinks, and you'll usually find me wearing it in Aqeela's Weekly Makeup Tag (see here) for any colourful looks! Even my sister loved it so much I had to buy her one!
Rimmel London Lasting Finish Lipstick in Guest List
For me, Guest List is the perfect My Lips But Better colour; a beautiful pink that is slightly on the shimmery side, but looks oh so natural on the lips. (I'm so sorry I don't have a lip swatch, keep watching my Instagram for updates, I'll try to post some there!) This is definitely my every day lipstick when I'm not in an orange mood, but is also perfect for a night out!
Rimmel London Moisture Renew Lipstick in Nude Delight
Everyone has to have a favourite nude lipstick, and Nude Delight is mine! I actually did an entire post on Nude Delight which you can read here, back when my blog was shockingly unprofessional! (Hey we all have to start somewhere - be kind!) Nude Delight is definitely my go-to "sexy" lipstick for when I want my lips to be extra pouty!

I did have individual lip swatch pictures, but yet again the weather has decided to intervene, which left all my pictures looking the same colour - so no point in showing you bad quality photos!

So there you have it, a short but sweet post on my top five lipsticks at the moment! Since I love orange/coral lips so much, I was thinking of doing a post on my favourite coral lipsticks - would anyone be interested in that?
Have you tried any of these lipsticks before? If so, what did you think? What lipsticks would be in your top five?

Thanks lovely xx
DeleteI have an love Tutti Frutti. This reminds me, I should use it more! Thanks. MAC's Rebel and Creme Cup, as well as Buxon's Sydney and YSL's #13 Peach Passion would all be in my Top 5. I can't think of a fifth, ahah! xx
ReplyDeleteHaha! I'd love to get my hands on MAC Creme Cup... it looks so beautiful! I really need to try me some YSL... xx
DeleteThat Illamasqua lipstick looks stunning, I really want to try some more of their products. I love my Revlon lip butters but haven't tried tutti frutti although I've heard loads about it. I think next time I'm going to pick up that one and wild watermelon :-) Great post as always hun! xxx
ReplyDeleteOhh you should! Like I said in the post, they can be a bit drying but they are so worth it! And yay, you must try it, you'll love it! We don't have the new colours here in Australia yet, so I have no idea what Wild Watermelon is like, but it looks so pretty! Thanks Linzi! xx
DeleteI've got Rimmel Guest List, the Australis Lick the Icing looks cool :D
ReplyDeletehttp://www.eyesformakeup.com/
It's a gorgeous lippie! Hehe! xx
DeleteI've got Lick The Icing, but it looks weird on me until I blend it with a darker pink to take the edge off. Loving the look of Flare!
ReplyDeleteAww I'm sure you look fine! Although I do the same, I actually pair it with a black lipstick... it looks AMAZING haha! And Flare would look great on you! xx
DeleteGreat picks, I really like the Rimmel Moisture Renew range x
ReplyDeletePrettylittlefashionista
Thanks! I love the range too, they have some gorgeous colours! xx
DeleteLick the icing is a great lipstick! I kind of wish I didn't leave it in a box at home. Tutti fruiti is on my list of lipsticks I want to get, and i would definitly love to see your favourite corals/orange lipsticks.
ReplyDeleteAww boo! What a shame! And you should definitely pick it up! It's great! And yayyyy one person wants to see haha :) Thanks! xx
DeleteLove your choice of shades! Illamasqua one looks amazing! Will have to try their lipsticks! :)
ReplyDeletexx
Thanks Jelena! You should definitely try them! xx
DeleteGorgeous shades, I love how they're all different!
ReplyDeleteI could never pull off 'lick the icing' though >.<
Thanks Sheri! I tried to make them different, otherwise I knew I'd pick all orange haha! Lick the Icing is definitely not for the faint hearted! I do get some funny looks from some people, but eh :P
Deletexx

ReplyDeleteOh my gosh Mishelle, you must try it! It would look gorgeous on you! And thanks :)
Deletexx
A great selection of lipsticks and shades!
ReplyDeleteI'm surprised to see that a red lipstick hasn't earned it's spot in your top 5!
Thanks Melissa! I thought about it, but I truly don't wear red all that much so I decided to skip it haha! Definitely would be one in my top 10! I think I need more red lipsticks though :P
Deletexx
Ooh, great job, I can't believe you've narrowed it down to five!
ReplyDeleteHahaha thanks lovely! It was really tough.. I probably should have gone with 10 but I wasn't being picky enough that way :P
Deletexx

DeleteGreat picks! I dont own any of them but I love the look of the Rimmel Lipstick in Guest List - its a really beautiful pink!
