Most people are getting into bright lips for summer but I am seriously digging the nude lip. In particular a more brown toned nude lip. After CTs 'bitch perfect' continuing to elude me I saw Lily Melrose use this nude and I thought.... this could be the one.
And it was! This is the perfect nude shade I was after, the pink matches my lips and the brown gives it that little something extra. I love pairing this lip with a bronzed face - foxes inspired. This lipstick has a good lasting stay but does need to topped up every couple of hours. I don't mind though at £5.49 it's an absolute bargain & it's got great pigmentation! I'm thinking about pairing it with MACs ' whirl' to help with the lasting power. I don't feel like this is drying on the lips either which is great as I constantly need to reach for the lip balm recently!
Which is your favourite Kate Moss lipstick?

Before I go into this post can we just appreciate this amazing Vogue cover of Emilia Clarke?!
Okay appreciation done.... Last week I bought my first ever contour kit, being super white I've always been quite sceptical about contouring because the highlight shade just isn't going to do anything for me..... I saw the nars contour kits and was kinda like... hmm... maybe I should try one?! but at around £30 quid I just couldn't justify it. So I turned to google and found the MUCH cheaper sleek option.
I've used a sleek blush before so I knew to be quite light with the amount of product used. I found this shade quite...orange? I'm not overly sold on it, maybe I need a little more practice or perhaps a more rosy-hue'd product. as I thought the highlight didn't show too much but that really can't be blamed on the product as I use the lightest shades going. The contouring shade is matte which I really like and the highlight does have some shimmer to it so although it doesn't show up heaps on me I get a nice little shimmer going.
I will say this brush is GORGEOUS. oh god, it's so much softer then I even dreamed, it blends in amazingly. It's a bit of a splurge at £22 but honestly if you're going to get a contour brush make it this one.
I kinda loosely followed the patterns that come with the contour kit and I did like the contour but I definitely need more practice. This is a great starter kit for someone like me just trying to get into this. I found contouring the nose really simple, but my jaw looked kinda weird I think because of the orangey hue, and I won't like I don't really know how contouring my cheeks is any different from putting on bronzer?! Just me?!
any tips for a beginner?
