'The seaweed is always greener in somebody else’s lake'

So, wish me luck! My first beauty blog! I've never really been a lipstick kind of girl. Or for that matter, a makeup kind of girl. If i go out, i'll wear makeup, but wearing it to go to work, what is the point? I have a very manual job and find that it's pointless.

 I went to London the first bank holiday of this year, and i have never bought anything from Harrods, or from MAC, so i thought i'd kill two birds with one stone. I bought a red lipstick. When i got home and applied it, i fell in love! My only issue is that it makes my lips very dry, but if i apply Vaseline first, it doesn't go on as smooth. The colour is amazing, and can be layered up to make a dark red, or just one or two, which gives your lips some colour, but not a drastic. However it does last a long time, which makes it more worth the money! 

While at Harrods i saw another MAC lipstick that i loved, but didn't buy at the time. Since then, i have been looking for a specific colour of lipstick. When shopping in boots i spotted a lady wearing the lipstick i wanted, so my lovely boyfriend asked her what it was, and i ended up purchasing a Clinique lipstick or 'chubby stick' as they call it. It was a bright pink, and didn't make my lips dry at all! It lasted a long time, and again could alter the colour depending on how many layers applied. The pink also makes me look very tanned, which is always good for a pale person. It also makes me feel very perfect (I know i'm far from it!), but it actually makes me feel good about my appearance!

Between the two i have to say that the Clinique 'chubby stick' is my favorite! It makes my lips feel very smooth and lasts such a long time, it is very moisturizing and would definitely buy from them again!

Does anyone else have any makeup brands they use for lipstick? Or do you have any opinions on these lipsticks?
