SPOTLIGHT: Favourite May 2018 LOTD's...

Time for another round of personal fave LOTD's. To this day it still surprises me how lipstick-loco I've become in the last few years. In my younger days, I never dreamed that I would have such a massive collection so late in life, and in most colours of the rainbow. As I recall I was obsessed with ONE particular lippie in my early teens - can't for the life of me remember the brand (most likely Avon), but it was the palest beige, icily frosted and I used to slick it on straight after meals as I thought it made me look so hot lol! It's laughable because now it's the last colour I would wear - I'd just look ill ...



As usual, there are a few non-mainstream brands in the collage, and I'll start with the reds and work my way towards my true love, purple...


1. This first one has appeared before - Seraphine Botanicals Vegan Berry Tint in Cherry Cream. Every time I think about cancelling my Lip Monthly subscription, I remind myself how many gems have come my way in their little bags, and this is one - so creamy, so dense and such a fabulously vibrant red ...
2. Another stunningly fiery hue, this is Lush Liquid Lipstick in the shade Power Without Fierce. I should wear this way more often as it's simply divine, the gold shimmer is just so flattering ...
3. At least one of these NYX Cosmic Metals lip creams appears in every post as I wear them probably more than any other product - this is Solar Energy, adore its juicy vibrancy ...



4. You may have gathered I'm quite fond of metallic finishes - I just love the sheen! This one is Colourpop Ultra Metallic Lip in the shade DM. Wish it wasn't so drying, but it's tolerable ...
5. It's lipstick shades like this that make me look forward to Autumn - L'Oreal Infallible Forever Frappe. Gorgeous maple, and so lovely and moist ...
6. Another repeater, L'Oreal Color Riche - Oud Obsession. Is it brown, is it red? Don't care, it's a stunner either way ...



 7. Another one from Lip Monthly. I can count on them for something a bit different, and I can't get enough of this dusky pink - Bellapierre Kiss Proof Lip Creme in Antique Pink, and kiss proof it sure is, lasts forever, and then some ...
8. This ever so pretty pink is Rimmel Lasting Finish in Heart Breaker - moist and comfy, I have quite a few from this range ...
9. Adore this one and it's only $6 from Woolworths! - MUD Full Colour Lip Lacquer in Wild Mauve Surprisingly comfortable and reasonably long wearing ...



10. Maybelline Vivid Matte Liquid Lipstick - Berry Boost. This range is still SO good, beautiful colours and the formula is brilliant, although it's far from matte, which suits me just fine ...
11. Fell for this one big time - Revlon Ultra HD Matte Metallic Lip Colour in Dazzle. There's nothing even vaguely metallic about it, but the shade soothes my soul ...
12. NYX Cosmic Metals Lip Cream - Asteroid Aura. Be still my beating heart ...

Well, that's it for another month lovelies - what's your latest lippie discovery?

Take care of you,

  1. Not a lippy but my new discovery I'm loving is the Burt's bees lipglosses. I had one left from a priceline goody bag and just recently gave it a go. Was so impressed with the high pigment and moisture it gave my lips. Now I want to try more from the range. Thanks for your reviews Kats. I love how your not afraid to wear a variety of different colours. I wish I had your courage to branch out a bit:) Freaky xo

    1. Freaky my dear, thanks for this lovely comment ♥ and for the info about the BB lipglosses - I haven't investigated them as I figured they wouldn't have much colour, but it sounds like I should def check them out ♥

  2. Wow. I think you just might have more lippies than I do! The Seraphine in Cherry cream and the Lush in Power without fierce, the Rimmel in Heartbreaker and the Mud in wild mauve. But I love how you can wear them all. Asteroid aura wow.

    1. Lol Okatko - possibly, last count was over 500, but I've just had a cull and tossed out at least 100 that were past it or not the right hue. Ooh yes Asteroid Aura deserves a wow ha ha ♥

  3. You sure can't beat Rimmel Lasting Finish! I've got a few of these myself. I've also got that Revlon Ultra HD Matte Metallic Lip Colour in Dazzle: the vanilla taste puts me off. I normally like vanilla, but it doesn't taste quite right to me.

    Asteroid Aura looks amazing!
