Revlon Lip Butters

There's a lip sensation on the internet. I keep reading about Revlon Lip Butter and how awesome it is so while stateside last week I went to a CVS pharmacy (be still my beating heart) where they had a special offer, buy one, get the next one half price. It would have been rude not to indulge. I got Tutti Frutti and one called (I think) Plum Berry.

The blurb is that they are ultra moisturising but not sticky like a lip gloss. My verdict is a big thumbs up. I am very impressed, they glide on like a dream, they don't dry your lips at all, they have good staying power and they were $6 each! What's not to love?

Get involved.

Another day, another mascara

Another flight and more mascara. This time from Dior with Diorshow. It has an exclusive nano brush dontcha know?

Anyway, it's very good. It applies very easily with no smudging, I do prefer a smaller brush. It's quite hard work to get off though! However that means it lasts all day and there is very little in the way of panda eyes. I'd recommend this if you are in the market for a high end mascara.

Lancome primer

A friend told me I had to buy a new miracle product from Lancome.  I quote: "it literally fills in wrinkles and lines on your face."

Hot-footed it I did to the nearest Lancome counter where I managed to buy the wrong product. She was talking about this:

But I managed to buy this. This is because the woman on the Lancome counter was hopeless. Now I hear Lancome are in a bit of trouble and if their staff don't know the products, then I am not surprised.

Anyway, I've been using what I bought because hey, a primer is always useful and I'm not about to waste £25.  It's very much like the Smashbox primer I got last year but not as plasticky. It's pretty good and nice with my new Bobbi Brown foundation over the top (yes, I bought it, nobody is surprised are they?) However, I wouldn't say it's a 'must-have'.

However, I am loving my Bobbi Brown. I went back and bought everything else from my recent makeover. The blusher is great but the foundation is a revelation. It glides on, you hardly need any and it smells truly lovely. The mascara is the only meh product. It's not rocking my world.
