LA Splash Haul


                                   

I am a little bit Liquid Lipstick, and Matte Lipstick crazy at the moment and it seems to be all im buying.  I just love how long they last on and they seem to make my lips look a whole lot nicer then if I was to wear a normal lipstick.






Studio Shine lip lustre Athena (Nala) 
 I love this shade, it is just the perfect nude shade for me a nice mix of pink and peach with a light shimmer. This one is very easy to apply and once dry is very comfortable on the lips, without any flaking. 


Studio Shine lip lustre Evil Queen (madusa)
 I love the swatched and instagram, pinterest pictures of this shade online, however mine is quite goopy and hard to apply, i also found that rather then being a lovely deep purple red with gold glitter, on my lips it looked black from it being so goopy.  And also i found this one to be a lot more drying then the Nala shade and it flaked badly when i tried adding a lip balm over the top. But i am going to try some more ways of wearing this shade as it looks like it could be so beautiful.  So I wore this one a little different then I would usually wear a liquid lipstick. I applied a thick coat of concealer over the top of lip balm to my lips, as I do have quite pigmented lips, I then applied the lipstick in a very thin coat and it came out beautiful, exactly what i wanted the colour to be.

Lip Couture Ghoulish
While this one isn't a exact dupe for the Lime Crime Cashmere, which in my opinion is much, much better.  I did really like this on my lips, its a lot more opaque then the lime crime but much more drying. I really do like this one on my lips though and it is still becoming a favorite. 

Lip Contour OG Ghoulish 
This is just like the Ghoulish but without those pink/purple undertones. Im not entirely sure this one suits me, I think a true grey could be more suited to a dark skintone as it just made me look a little more dead then I usually do.  I found it can be wearable if i just apply a thin layer as these are seriously pigmented. The one thing I did like about these was that when it started to fade it goes down to a lovely pinkish grey colour- now if only I could get it to be like that when i first apply it. 

Are you into the grey lips trend?
