A Week in Lipsticks

A Week in Lipsticks

I’ve seen these posts floating around for a while and I decided to give it ago!  These are the lipsticks that I have worn throughout the day.

This is: A Week in Lipsticks.

NYX | Zurich

A Week in Lipsticks | NYX Zurich

After including this in my ‘The Perfect Spring Lip Colours‘, I really wanted to wear it, as I will admit that I had kind of forgotten about it, until it came to doing that post. Zurich is a rosy nude with coral undertones which is absolutely stunning; especially for this time of year! I normally struggle with matte lip products, but this goes on like a dream and it is extremely light, so you forget that you have a lip colour on!

Too Faced | Chocolate Milkshake

Too Faced Chocolate Milkshake | A Week in Lipsticks

I love the Too Faced Melted Lipstick and this one from the chocolate collection is my all time favourite. This is such a beautiful nude shade, as it is a light medium peach with a warm undertone. I do find this settles into lines after a few hours, but other than that it wears really well. It applies evenly and has a creamy finish.

Urban Decay | Backtalk

Another mention in my ‘Perfect Spring Lip Colours‘ post. Backtalk is a mauve nude pink that many people seem to love. It is a comfort matte finish, so think Satin. It is lightly hydrating and wears well. I went out for dinner wearing this, and it lasted really well until I ate a sandwich, but other than the sandwich it did great! It also doesn’t leave that ring around your lips; it fades evenly.

MAC | Twig

I must admit that I was going to wear Angel, but I didn’t want to include another lipstick from the other blog post. Twig is a warm mauve with a satin finish. Twig looks matte, but feels creamy and light weight. This also lasted all day!

ColourPop | Lumiere

This colour is my new favourite, I paired it with the matching lip liner and the finish is gorgeous. Lumiere is a dusty mauve pink with a matte finish. It is such good value for money, as it costs $5, it’s just a shame it’s American and costs an arm and a leg to get here. It doesn’t last very well through eating and drinking, but you can’t complain at $5.

Top to Bottom: NYX Zurich, Too Faced Chocolate Milkshake, Urban Decay Backtalk, MAC Twig, ColourPop Lumiere

There is my week in lipstick, and yes I have only done five days, as I haven’t worn makeup for seven days in a row! I also need to switch things up a bit, as there is clearly a theme here.

That was: A Week in Lipsticks.

What are your favourite everyday lipsticks?

Thank you for reading!

    I love my NYX in London (such a great shade) and you are right about how light they are too! I also love Mac’s Mehr and one of Stila’s tinted lip balms because they are so moisturising! x

    All of these are such gorgeous shades. I need to start wearing different shades as I currently just wear the same every day as it’s easy and I know it’ll last me all day! I have some lovely ones in my collection I need to use more.

      Thank you! I’d say switching it up is fun, but it turned out I wore practically the same shade most of the time haha! It’s definitely worth going through your collection and pulling some different ones out!xx

    Nyx Zurich is such a beautiful shade, I think I should go for some shopping very soon, haha. Now I’m waiting to get my first order from Colourpop, so I can finally try the famous Lumiere.

    PS: I love your blog, so I’ve just followed you on BL.

    These are all really pretty! I have the Nyx one in Stockholm and I love it. Also came across the Urban Decay one earlier this week and it seemed very spring-y. 🙂

Current mood: Sitting by a pool in Greece sipping a freddo cappuccino😍

Actual reality: Staring at my kettle in the UK wishing it could do magic tricks😭

Is it actually worth investing in a proper coffee machine? And more importantly, which one should I get?

I actually only like iced coffee, so I’m not sure if a machine is for me, but there’s got to be a way… right?😭😂

☀️ June ☀️ Spent the first half of the month melt ☀️ June ☀️

Spent the first half of the month melting on a beautiful beach on holiday, and the second half melting in my own house🫠 

Swipe to see how hot it was in Ella’s room, just in time for bedtime🙃

Isn’t the heatwave supposed to be coming back too? Send prayers (and fans)😂 How did you survive the  heat?!

1. Take off✈️
2. Couldn’t ask for anything more❤️
3.🐚🌺
4.❤️
5. I may have piled my flatbread a little too high😅
6. Father’s Day at @draytonmanor 🎢
7. There’s always time for a farm trip🐴
8. Our first cinema trip🎬
9. We’re big Toy Story fans in this house🤠
10. It’s been Caesar salad weather🥵
11. And we were able to sneak in a date afternoon🥰
12. An ice cream run was a must🍦
13. Especially as Noah was very brave during his preschool jabs🥺
14. I do not miss doing bedtime at this temperature🥵
Real talk family dinner review!🤍 (Gifted/ invite) Real talk family dinner review!🤍
(Gifted/ invite)

We treated the kids to a meal out at weathervanemeirpark this weekend, and the family vibes were lovely. One of the biggest wins was that the staff brought over colouring pages and crayons for both kids without us even having to ask. Which is a lifesaver with two toddlers🥵

Noah and Ella were completely won over by the food. Noah cleared his plate of sausage, chips, and beans, and Ella was living her best life with pasta, corn on the cob, and chips (a toddler dream combo, let’s be real😂)

As for the adults, Jake loved The Big Melt burger. I ordered the Katsu Curry Feast, and we did have a little hiccup where my chicken looked a little pink, but I always judge a place by how they handle mistakes. The staff were absolutely brilliant, replaced it immediately, and even brought over a complimentary drink to apologise. Great customer service honestly makes all the difference.🫶🏻

It’s a super welcoming, stress free spot if you’re looking for somewhere to take the kids this weekend. 

Swipe to the very end to see Ella making sure no ice cream got left behind😂

What’s your ultimate go to meal when you eat out with the family?🍽️

🩵 Father’s Day at @draytonmanor 🩵 Yesterday we he 🩵 Father’s Day at @draytonmanor 🩵

Yesterday we headed to Drayton Manor for the first time, and we absolutely loved it! 🚂

The highlights:

🎢 We managed to hit all the rides we wanted.

⏱️ Queue times were super manageable—the longest we waited was 30 minutes, which is the absolute limit with a 1 and 3-year-old! 😂

🥵 It was too hot to make it to the zoo this time, but with animal-loving toddlers, we will definitely be back to check it out. 🐯

Have you been to Drayton Manor before? 

What’s your ultimate tip for taking toddlers to theme parks in the heat? 👇🏼
