Beauty Bite: MUA's Kiss Proof Lip Stain

 

Hi all!

If you've seen my recent MUA haul, you'll know I purchased this Kiss Proof lip stain in the shade 'Fabulicious' and here's my review for it! If you haven't seen my MUA haul blog post, CLICK HERE!! 

Plus, there's only a few days left of their half price sale, so go go go!

 

Now I've had my eye on this for a very long time, not just the MUA one but any lip stain pen in general and I was in two minds about getting one. So when this was on sale from £3 to £1.50 I just had to give it a go! I purchased the most 'pink' shade of them all (There are 3 shades so far).

 

I'm quite impressed with the size of it, it's a decent size worth you money for a start. The smell of the product was something I was most worried about but actually it has a pleasant sweet, fruity type smell to it that I was relieved and happy that it had.

 

I moisturised my lips prior to applying this to make sure it didn't stick to any dry skin! I would say if you do use it, don't use it on chapped or dry/flaky skin because it will cling to it and draw attention to it.

 

It took a while to get an even coverage but it's buildable! Which is lovely because if you made a mistake, it won't be too noticable. The colour is slightly darker than the colour of the packaging but is a really nice natutal looking pink lip colour.

 

It lasts for a good few hours, didn't smudge and didn't bleed.

For this price, you can't say no to such a great product! Will I repurchase and will I buy in other shades? YES!

If you want a hint of colour to your lips rather than a bold colour, try it!

Give it a go!

 

Beauty Bite: Skincare Product of the Week

I've decided to do a new type of post on my blog, I'll feature different products to be 'Product of the Week'. Here is my skincare product of the week!

This is the T-Zone Blackhead Fighting Facial Scrub. This cleanses your skin beautifully and leaves it feeling extremely soft. It uses beads to help clean your pores out to help prevent blackheads. It also contains tea tree which is one of my favourite things to be used in a product. It doesn't leav your skin feeling dry or leaves it flaky. It's so good! You can find this rather cheaply, the cheapest I found it at was 89p!

 

Give it a go!

Beauty Bite: Disappointing Product- Avon's Colour Style Lipstick in the Shade Pink Kiss

Before I start, here's what Avon have to say:

"Rich and creamy moisturising lipstick in gorgeous stay-true shades."

This really wasn't I expected it to be. You've let me down Avon! :(

This is their Colour Style Lipstick in the shade 'Pink Kiss' and it's price is currently on sale at £2.99. You'd expect to be a lovely pink colour. In fact, I expected it to be a pink satin finish, a sort of glossy shimmery look to it. I could not be more wrong! It comes out a frosty pink colour that I really did not like! If you can see from the picture, it's extremely tiny, it was about the size of my thumb...possibly smaller. Also it's not all that pigmented. It's rather sheer and doesn't appear that great!

Here's a swatch of it...if you can see!

I will admit, it is creamy and quite nice to apply but to be honest when you apply it, the colour doesn't appear that nice.

Also, My lipstick bent when I applied it leaving dents in it and it eventually broke after 2 uses.

I hate to say it, but I really don't like this product! For the price I payed, I expected it to be bigger and I expected the colour to appear different. Not at all what I wanted. Disappointed!

However, this is just my experience with this product, it doesn't mean you won't like it!

If you've given it a go or want to try it, let me know how it works for you :)
