Collection 2000 Lasting Colour Lipstick- Review.

Hey everyone! So, today I have a review on the Collection 2000 Lasting Colour Lipsticks. These are £2.99 in the UK and I'm not sure whether they are available in the US or not but if they are I don't know the price. Anyways, I have 2 shades of these lipsticks:
 
 
 
These lipsticks feel very moisturising on the lips, however the shade in passionfruit has very chunky glitter in it so if you're not a fan of that, definitely steer away from that shade. As for the staying power, if you don't over apply then on my lips without eating/drinking it lasted for about 30 minutes...BUT! When it did rub off, it left a stain of the colour still on my lips so it didn't feel like you were wearing lipstick, but you still have the colour of the lipstick stained on your lips. The colours are quite true to their name, like pink shock is a bright barbie pink and passionfruit is an orangy pinky shade. I do recommend these lipsticks but again, if you don't like the feeling of glitter on your lips, stay away from passionfruit, but it doesn't bother me.
 
Hope this helps!

Maybelline 24hr colour tattoo- reviews.

Hey everyone! So today I have a review on the Maybelline Colour Tattoo's. I have 3 shades:
The swatches in this photo are pretty true to colour but of course they are a bit different.
 
I really love these. They are describes as a gel-cream consistancy, which yes they do feel that way.
They are very soft and extremely creamy, but to keep the creamy-ness of the eyeshadow, make sure you store them upside down. They are priced at £4.99 in the uk and around $7 in the USA. On my eyes which are very oily, the cream shadows without a primer last around 16-18 hours on me, which is amazing! I haven't ever worn my makeup for a full 24 hours so I dont know whether they would as I wipe it off after 16-18 hours of wearing it, as I do need sleep! They are quite shimmery and glittery, especially the gold one and it is quite chunky glitter inside which you can feel once applied, but it dries a bit and once it does you can't feel the chunky glitter on your eyes anymore. The pink one is quite new to the UK so I don't know whether it is available in the US yet. I really ike the oackaging on this product! It is in a nice glass jar and the label on top of the jar is the colour of the actual cream shadow, so you know what colour you're picking up if you store them standing up.
 
Hope this helps!

Collection 2000 Volume Sensation Lipstick (in - 6 sugar pink) - review

Hey! Today I have a review on the Collection 2000 Volume Sensation Lipstick in - 6 sugar pink.



Once again, it's another LOVE! In the tube you get 15g of product which is amazing! The price of the lipstick ranges from £1.99 to around £3.99.  The finish of the lipstick quite glossy but it also has some shimmer to it. With the right skin tone, I think that this colour would look amazing, unfortunatley my skin is a bit too pale so I have to dab the lipstick onto my lips, so it looks right.

The smell of this lipstick, unfortunaley, is like most other drugstore lipsticks as it smells like plastic...
It doesn't bother me that much as you can't smell it when it's on your lips, it's just that I would like to find a lipstick from collection 2000 that doesn't smell like plastic.

I love the packaging, it is very sleek.  I love the design on the top, the product slides up really smoothly so I love that.

Overall, yes I would recommend this lipstick, it is a really great colour and they have around 10 shades.

Hope this helped!
