SPOTLIGHT: Last Quarter 2016 Fave LOTD's - Berries, Purples & Oranges...

Yay the final instalment in this particular series! Is there no limit to the rainbow of colours that lip products come in? Fortunately for me it's endless - colour is such a big part of my life, and I ain't gonna waste precious advertising space by leaving my pucker all pale, so here are the Berries, Purples & Oranges...


Only one berry made the cut - I have more clothing in this fruity hue in my Winter wardrobe, so that explains it being solo. Have to give credit to Colourpop for what they produce for so little price - I'm still hoping their range will soon be available in Australia, the postage is killing me lol. The MBA Grape Crush is another regular in my fave LOTD posts - this pinky purple is just so flattering, and the perfect choice for anyone daring to be different, but who's not quite ready to get into REAL purple ...



Adore the almost ethereal quality of the Chi Chi Super Duper Dope - I can imagine a fairy princess wearing this. More lavender than purple, but I just had to include it hey. And how about the Colourpop So Wavy - I don't think you can get any more purple than this?!?! Holey guacemole, I had to take quite a few deep breaths before I stepped out the door! Received lots of compliments throughout the day though - only had to reapply it twice, and that was after breakfast (which I eat at work) and lunch. Yesssssssssss! ...



From memory this MBA Spiced Pumpkin has starred in more of my fave posts than any other lipstick - it's totally unique, totally gorgeous, and I will never EVER not have it in my collection. The Colourpop Mama is my latest truly madly deeply passion - oh wow, I was not expecting this to be so fabulous, nor did I realise how much I fancy burnt orange ...



These two are actually classified as reds, but they're way too orange in my book. Fine by me as I struggle to find nice bright and bold oranges that don't streak, and these more than meet my criteria as well as being lusciously creamy and dense. Both formulas are divinely hydrating, and there's not much to differentiate them colourwise apart from the Chi Chi Matte is a tad more glossy ...

Well that's a wrap lovelies! I'll be putting together a collage of my overall faves for 2016 very soon - so looking forward to seeing what is released this year. I'd better make some room ha ha ...

Take care of you,

  1. It's crazy how different some colours can look on certain skin tones. Creeper is so different on me :)

    1. I know what you mean Alinta - lighting also makes a difference, and I can take the same photo with 3 different cameras and not get the same result. It looks bright red in the tube but dries quite berryish on my lips xxx
