Autumn Lipstick Wishlist

Autumn has arrived and with it comes a flurry of new releases and products to keep your skin looking fab, your nails in tip-top condition, the biker boots and chunky knits are back out and of course it is Berry Lip time!

Up until a year or so ago, there is not a chance I would have been caught wearing a berry lipstick, it wasn't until the assistant on the Dior Counter in John Lewis convinced me that the shade Fashion Night was for me that I was even tempted, but now there are so many that I want to try.
Autumn Lipstick Wishlist
Those lovely ladies over at Escentual are forever tempting me with their products, their recent blog post (here) featured the Makeup Forever Pro Sculpting Lip - 2-In-1 Lip Sculpting Pen and I absolutely love the look of Rosewood which the lovely Chelsea wears in one of the photos. Rosewood is described as being a medium plum pink and the reason I am drawn to it is the description - The MAKE UP FOR EVER Pro Sculpting Lip is the secret to fuller-looking lips in an instant. With an opaque semi-matte lip colour on one end and iridescent powder-to-cream highlighter on the other, it’s the only tool you’ll need to maximise your lip look. I am intrigued by the highlighter section. You can find the Pro Sculpting 2-in-1 pen for just  £18.50 HERE

Next comes Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Lips and the two shades which catch my eye are called Dangerous Liasion and Show Girl. Dangerous Liasion is described as being a muted, medium-dark reddish plum with warm undertones and a semi-matte finish, it looks, from the swatches I have seen to be just divine. Show Girl is more of a warm plum with a satin finish but equally beautiful. Said to glide on like a gloss but give full coverage, it is definitely an Autumn/Winter shade and both can be found for £24 HERE.

Shockingly, I am yet to try any of the Marc Jacobs make up range, but everything I have seen, I have really liked and that includes Le Marc Lip Crème in shade Blow, which in fairness was out of stock when I did want to buy it a few days ago in store. Blow is described as a “dark berry velvet" and it definitely does have a dark berry which is almost a burgundy red tone to it but it has cool undertones and a satin sheen finish.  It retails for £25 here.

As with Marc Jacobs, Hourglass is another brand I swoon over but am yet to purchase and these Lip Stylo's have featured on my blog before. This time however it is shade Warrior which has got my attention. Described as being a dark burgundy with cool undertones and a soft sheen it gived a medium but buildable coverage. The Lip Stylo is also said to feature the colour intensity of a lipstick fused with a luxurious blend of Shea Butter, Jojoba, Mimosa and Sunflower Seed for softer, fuller lips. Priced at £26 HERE.

On the hightstreet, Rimmel have usually always got a lipstick selection that I like and this time it is The Only One Lipstick in shade One of a Kind.  Described as being a Maroon shade with neutral undertones and it said to be the The perfect balance of high impact colour, moisture, all day comfort and staying power. It is priced at £6.99 and you can find it HERE.


Giorgio Armani Ecstasy Shine are lipsticks that I have seen featured all over my social media feed and I love that they are said to "colour like a lipstick and moisturise like a balm with the shine of a gloss" which has totally tempted me, especially as I have again, never tried the brand (bloggers forever influencing). Shade 602 which is also known as Night Viper sits within a trio of plum shades that are available within this range. Again from the swatches ive seen, it is one of the lighter plum shades that is perfect for everyday wear. These lipsticks are priced at £29 and can be found HERE.

The final lipstick comes from the Guerlain KissKiss Hydrating & Plumping Velvet Matte Lip Colour and it is shade Wild Plum that has caught my attention.  Described as being the first hydrating and plumping matte lipstick by Guerlain which delivers rich colour in a luxurious balm-like formula. The formula contains hyaluronic acid and Nigella sativa oil to nourish and plump, while a chilli derivative boosts the smile by performing a hot and cold skin micro-massage. £24.75 HERE
