Mac Amplified Lipstick in Full Fuchsia Review and Swatches

(0.10oz./2.8g - 15USD) A vivid pearly fuchsia pink. It stains your lips a lot and that stain is really hard to remove. The color pay-off is strong but not thoroughly opaque.

Gosh Velvet Touch Lipstick Collection Swatches and Review

(0,1oz./4g) Gosh cosmetics is my top favorite drug store brand. Their lipsticks and mascaras are amazing. Today I'm going to review all the lipstick shades that I have from them. I have 8 and the other colors from the collection didn't look wearable to me, they are either too light or too metallic. They also have a couple of red shades which some people might be looking for. They all have a vanilla scent just like Mac lipsticks. Their formula and lasting power is very similar to MAC Amplified lipsticks.

Rimmel London Moisture Renew Lipsticks in 130 Oxford St. Fuchsia & 330 Sloane's Plum Review and Swatches

(0,14oz./4g - 6,99USD) Rimmel London re-released their Moisture Renew lipsticks with a new packaging and a new formula.
       130 Oxford St. Fuchsia is a bubble gum pink, has a creamy finish. The formula is thicker but smooth enough to glide on.      
       330 Sloane's Plum is deep berry color which leans on the purple side. The older version is frosty and has a metallic greenish sheen. As you can see above I have the same lipstick, 330 Slone's Plum in both old and new packaging. You can see the color is slightly different too, new version is darker and glossier. I've only tried this lipstick in new formula, so far I am liking the previous one better. (only the formula, not the color) Because the new formula is lighter and more buttery which sounds good but it makes the lasting power so weak.

This collection has 20 lovely shades which you can find at ulta.com or at superdrug.com

       Watson's a gittiğimde göz atmadan geçemediğim bir marka Rimmel London. Yanlışlıkla 2 tane aynı rujdan almışım ama bu sayede eski ve yeni formülü değerlendirme şansım oldu.
       Önce 130 Oxford St. Fuchsia ile başlayalım, bir kaç yıl önce herhalde çocuksu bir ruh halimde almışım bu rengi, tam bir şeker pembesi. Bu rengin yapısını diğer ikisine göre çok daha güzel buldum. Daha yoğun renk veriyor ve dudakta daha kalıcı.
       330 Sloane's Plum eski versiyonu formül olarak çok daha iyi ama yeni versiyonu renk olarak daha güzel. Yeni versiyon çok yumuşak, ıslak gibi kayıyor dudaklarınızda ama bence böyle koyu bir renkte olmazsa olmaz bir özellik rujun ne kadar kalıcı olduğu. Yani bu ruj formülüyle yemek yemek çok zor ama bir MAC rujla çok daha rahat yemek yiyebilirsiniz.

Maybelline Color Sensational Lipstick in 140 Intense Pink Review and Swatches

       Another lipstick from the Maybelline Color Sensational line. Unlike 630 Velvet Beige, 140 Intense Pink has a subtle smell. It has a milky baby pink color with a creamy finish. Mac Creme Cup is a close dupe, Creme Cup is tiny bit sheerer.
       140 Intense Pink isn't sold in the US or UK. You can find it at amazon.de or at Kruidvat in the Netherlands.

Türkiye'de satılmayan Maybelline Color Sensational ruj, bu koleksiyondan ülkemizde 14 farklı ruj tonu var ve genelde hepsi koyu tonlarda. 140 Intense Pink ise çok açık bebek pembesi tonlarında, en yakın muadil Mac Creme Cup ruj. Creme Cup biraz daha transparan görünümde.

Rimmel London Apocalips Lip Lacquer in 600 Nude Eclipse, 101 Celestial & 303 Apocaliptic Review and Swatches

       (0,18oz./5,5g) The idea behind these lip glosses are, they are fluid lipsticks. They have the sheen and precise application of a lipgloss and they have the full coverage of a lipstick but they don't have any staying power. So you shouldn't mind touching up while wearing these. I find that because the application is very precise, it's not mistake proof so it makes it more difficult to apply than a regular lipstick. Apocalips lip glosses all have a creamy finish with a light weight texture. Overall I'm iffy about lip creams in general, I don't get the idea behind it, why would I want my lipstick to last shorter?
       It's not hard to find inexpensive but high quality make up these days. Rimmel London products in general is one of the best when it comes to drugstore brands. So let's get on to reviewing each color.
       600 Nude Eclipse is basically a concealer color in a lip gloss form, It's too light for my skin tone because it cancels out my lips. It's nude and even too nude, you need to be very fair skinned for this one.
       101 Celestial is my favorite, this is the only one that I actualy used in my daily life, it's more forgiving when it comes to wearing off because it's the closest to my lip color.
       303 Apocaliptic is in your face, bright and even neon reddish pink. As you can see on the pictures above it was the hardest to get a nice line around your lips because there is no place for errors with this one. It bleeds in no time just like the other two, but Apocaliptic will show the bleeding the most.

Rimmel London Apocalips likit rujlar, ruj ve parlatıcı arasında bir tür olarak tasarlanmış. Kendisine göre avantajları ve dezavantajları var. Mesela normal bir rujun kalıcılığı yok, çok sıvı ve ince yapıda olduğu için dudağınıza sürdükten kısa bir süre sonra yok oluyorlar. Ama tıpkı bir parlatıcı gibi nemlendirme özelliğine sahip aynı zamanda çok kapatıcı. Rimmel London ürünlerini Türkiye'de Watsons'larda bulabilirsiniz.

Tom Ford Cheek Color Blush in 06 Wicked Review and Swatches

(0,28oz./8g - 60USD) I loved that luxurious Tom Ford packaging but now that my blush is 1 year old I can see scratches all over it. Still an eye candy.
Wicked is a bright pink with a subtle sheen, it's too pink to use a generous amount. There is a fine line being pretty and looking like a clown when using such colors.

Mac Satin Lipstick in Pink Nouveau Review and Swatches

(0.10oz./2.8g - 15USD) A very popular shade, bright blue under toned barbie pink. Has full color opacity and even though it's a satin finish it's more matte.

Mac Lip Pencil in Embrace Me Review and Swatches

(1,45oz./0,05oz. - 15USD) This is basically just a neon pink lip liner. It's just toobright and looks childish to me, I got this in the store but it didn't seem right when I got back home. That's why I prefer online shopping, yes sometimes some pictures can decieve you but in the store those lights can deceive you too, at least you have the chance to compare with different lightning online.

Mac Cremesheen Lipstick in Lickable Review and Swatches

(0.10oz./2.8g - 15USD) Lickable is very comparable to Speak Louder, lickable has more pink and purple in it and less red. It also has tiny little pearls, a very bright hot berry pink.

Mac Matte Lipstick in Please Me Review and Swatches

(0.10oz./2.8g - 15USD) Please me provides full color opacity with a matte finish. Medium toned rose pink color of it gives a youthful warmth to your complexion. It will hold on to your lips so well that even after eating or drinking you'll notice that the majority of the color wasn't rubbed off. You'll never worry about your lips when wearing this color, very low maintenance.

Mac Lustre Lipstick in Lustering Review and Swatches

(0.10oz./2.8g - 15USD) Lustre is one of my least favorite finishes from Mac because they tend to be very sheer. Lustering looks reddish watermelon pink in the tube but it changes dramaticcaly on the lips depending on your actual lip color, because it's so sheer. You can not build the color up, the more you pile it on the glossier it looks.

Mac Cremesheen Lipstick in Créme Cup Review and Swatches

(0.10oz./2.8g - 15USD) Creme cup is a semi-opaque milky pink with a soft sheen. It doesn't give you opacity like many other cremesheens.

Mac Cremesheen Lipstick in Speed Dial Review and Swatches

(0.10oz./2.8g - 15USD) Speed Dial is a cute bubble gum pink and has a soft golden sheen. Rich in pigmentation but not opaque. I love wearing it with a soft brown smoky eye.

Rimmel London Lasting Finish by Kate Moss 2012 2013 Matte Velvet Lipstick Collection Review and Swatches

I just got 4 lipsticks from Rimmel London Kate Moss Winter 2012 2013 lipstick collection, there a lot of different shades this time, around 10. All have velvet finish not entirely matte, it's the exact same formula and finish of Rimmel London's Color Show Off Lipsticks, which I love. If you 'd like to check my review about 8 of them click here.
102: Soft pink/ bubble gum pink.
106: Deep reddish pink, looks almost red under yellow light.
107: My favorite out of the entire collection, a maroon that looks berry under day light.
113: A very pale nude, this just cancelles out my lips far too much.

Rimmel London New Kate Moss Lipstick Collection #16,20,22

This new collection has some nice summery shades. The first Kate Moss collection had red Kate's signature on them, these ones are pink. There are actually 4 shades in the collection but I got 3 of them shade #18 didn't seem very pretty to me it was too brown. All shades have creamy finish and opaque coverage.

 #16 is a bright salmon / peachy pink color.

#20 is in your face blue based bright pink.

#22 is bright, vivid red.

MAC Amplified Lipstick in Girl About Town Review and Swatches

(0.10oz./2.8g - 14,50USD) Girl About Town is a bold vivid magenta, it's opaque obviously, because it has an amplified finish. Has subtle pearls when you look up closely, these pearls in the bullet won't be noticable on the lips however they add subtle dimension to this gorgeous bold statement lips. I get 4-5 hours of wear which I love about amplified finishes. But it dries out my lips and stains them pretty badly.

Rimmel London Pro Nail Polish in 292 Sorbet So Good Review and Swatches

I am here with a Rimmel London nail polish again, this one is a very cute rose pink. With 2 coats it just looks perfectly pigmented but of course one is never enough. It won't chip for a decent amount of time, not 10 days like it's advertised, maybe 4 or so, but with a base and a top coat it stays up to 10 days.

Chanel Rouge Allure Laque in 76 Ming Review and Swatches

(5,67g/0,30oz. - 32USD) I love the formula on this lip colors, it's very creamy, lightweight not tacky or sticky whatsoever. It's like a thin liquid lipstick. I only wish that it had a little bit more pigmentation, the other shades in this range does actually have more pigmentation than Ming. It's a very wearable shade, your lips but better pink color, very natural looking.

YSL Rouge Pur Lipstick in #32 Vivid Pink Review and Swatches

(3,5g/0,12oz. - 30USD) I actually got this lipstick years ago. And I've never used it that much because it just moves too quickly and shows the black spot on my lips, it dries out my lips too. I feel like some lipsticks adhere to your skin and be a part of it, but this one rather sits on top of my skin. But the color is gorgeous, purplish vivid pink, with some pearlescent effect. It looks nice with a soft brown smokey eye.

Guerlain Cruel Gardenia Meteorites Powder Highlighter

I have been literally admiring this illuminator all day, but unfortunately it's not out yet. You have to wait until January 2012 to get it. It's from Guerlain's Les Roses et Le Noir Spring 2012 Collection. I don't know how am I going to touch this, think it'll sit on my vanity and be pretty for a long time until I start using it. How can you damage this beauty? I'll only purchase this illuminator because of the flower design. If you want to read a review or admire it with more pictures you can click here.
