Chi Chi "Viva La Diva"

Yep, another lipstick post haha. A girl can never have too many lipsticks!

I have always been a fan of Chi Chi products, everything is such a good quality and especially for the price you pay! Their lipsticks retail for about $18 I am pretty sure and that's a pretty good price for lipstick.
I was given Viva La Diva in "Valley Doll" which is a bright matte pink (oh how I love matte lipsticks!). I have to say the consistancy is a little different to what I am use to, usually I put on a lipstick and it starts out as very moisturising and then slowly dries, whereas this one was dry from the start. I am not saying that's a bad thing at all, it was just different. But I liked it!



As for colour lasting, it is long lasting for sure. It didn't bleed either which is a big thing we all want in lipsticks.
It's definitely a brand to try out, I have a few eyeshadows by Chi Chi also which I love! I will do a blog on them soon also!

NYX Narcissus and Circe

A few weeks ago, I decided it was finally time I gave NYX lipsticks a go, and after a bit of researching on the internet to see what colours I wanted, I settled on Narcissus and Circe. While I was checking out swatches and information, I saw many people said that these two colours were dupes for Viva La Gaga 1 and 2 by MAC. Now, I am yet to try MAC products so I can't tell you my opinion on if they are dupes or not but they are very pretty, very wearable shades regardless.




I am always on the hunt for 3 lipsticks colours, which I already own a few of, Barbie pink, nude and red. You can never have enough! So when I saw that these two shades were having so many good things said about them, I couldn't resist.

NYX lipsticks have a very creamy, smooth texture and they don't leave your lips feeling dry which I love. I guess you could say they almost have a gloss like feeling when first applied on your lips.

First up, we have Narcissus, I would describe this as a soft Barbie pink.



 
Next up is Circe, it is very hard in my opinion to find a nice nude lipstick shade, and I think this one is just the right hint of nude for my liking =)


All in all, for about $6 each off ebay, you can't go wrong. These lipsticks are definitely worth adding to your make up bag.

Lipstick and kisses,
