SONIA AND REVLON, L'OREAL OH MY!


Want to see some more delicious lip products??? While I have some random ones to share with you today from various brands "HAPPY DISCOVERING"


REVLON LIP BUTTER 030 FIG JAM

Normally I don't tend to gravitate to shades that are some what to the brown side, however I had read and heard good things about this particular colour and kept looking at it in the store, so I caved and bought it finally. Also I love the lip butters because they moisturize well and the darker shades have good colour payoff.



L'OREAL COLOUR RICHE BALM 318 HEAVENLY BERRY

I am somewhat disappointed with the colour payoff of this, even if its sheer it can still be pigmented and this just really isn't great. I have previously loved "Nourishing Nude" from this same line, but this isn't doing it for me, especially at $9 CAD a pop.


 In the tube this looks very promising
not so  much once swatched

Its to bad because as I said I do like these normally and they feel very nourishing on the lips. If nothing else I just have a nice lip balm here :P

Last up I saved the big winner for the end.
I was at my newly opened Target location and of course was into the makeup. I decided to try out the

SONIA KASHUK SATIN LUXE LIP COLOUR 93 CLASSIC RED 

The first thing that caught my attention is the sturdy high end looking modern tube with Sonia's name down one side of it. I like that there is a block of colour at the bottom to give you some idea what your in store for. I would say in this case the colour offered on the outside is true to the colour of the product itself. Once I got it home and opened it I was very pleased as it has a lovely gentle vanilla scent and the colour is sinfully perfect, lets take a look



This is the first real true red lipstick I have purchased in a long time and I am loving it. Its smooth and silky and very intense pigment and the scent is great. The only thing I have noticed is for some reason as I am wearing it after a while it feels like my lips are getting a bit dry, but your experience may be total different with it. I will just add a dab of clear gloss if needed.

I will definitely be picking up a few more of these lipsticks in the near future.
3.4g @ $9.99 CAD

LET ME KNOW IN THE COMMENTS IF YOU HAVE TRIED ANY OF THE ITEMS I MENTIONED TODAY???

THANKS EVERYONE FOR CONTINUING TO SUPPORT MAKEUP'ASYLUM
