NYE Beauty

As if New Years Eve is tonight!! I am very excited as NYE is the perfect excuse to get glammed up and go all out with your makeup, which is what I intend to do tonight with lots of glitter and sparkle!
I thought I would share some of my NYE beauty essentials that I will be using this year,



Firstly Primer. Primer is a miracle on a night like tonight, when you want your makeup to stay put all night long. I will be using the Urban Decay Eye shadow Primer which is amazing, it lasts forever and doesn't crease. I can say that I have worn this overnight and my eye shadow still looked incredible in the morning! I was lucky to receive the Benefit Pore Professional Primer for Christmas and I am looking forward to using this as I have heard so many good things about it,

Brows. Yes I love brows and I think they make such a difference to your face, especially now since I have my hands on the ABH Dipbrow Pomade. I cannot rave about this product enough and it has totally changed my eyebrow game, so this is a beauty essential must for NYE.

Fake Eyelashes. No makeup for a night out is complete in my opinion without some big fluttery lashes to set off your eye look and these Demi Wispies by Ardell are fast becoming my favourite eyelashes. I normally get a few compliments on my eyelashes when I wear them, so they must be a winner!

Glitter. I love glitter so NYE is great because you can wear as much as you want and no one can say anything because lots of glitter is what NYE is all about, right?

Highlighter. Not satisfied with glittery eyes I want my face to also shimmer which is why the Benefit Watts Up Highlighter is perfect. A creamy formula that you can apply to your cheekbones, bridge of your nose, under your eyebrows and cupids bow, to really make your skin glow.

And Finally my YSL Rouge Volupte Lipstick in Peach Passion, alongside my trusty Charlotte Tilbury Lip liner in Pillow Talk, This lipstick is a beautiful peachy pink and I think it goes great teamed with smokey eye look which is what I am going for this NYE.


I hope everyone has a fabulous NYE whatever you may be doing!

Rose Gold Obsessed | Christmas Presents

First of all I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and enjoyed the festivities with all your family and friends! This year it seems I have a bit of a rose gold theme going on with the presents I received, I love rose gold and wanted to share some of my favourite gifts. Also, rose gold is too pretty not too photo! I always enjoy other peoples what I got for Christmas posts, so if you are nosy like me, this is for you...


Olivia Burton Rose Gold Watch
Orelia Rose Gold Hoops
Rose Gold Necklace from Fenwicks
Charlotte Tilbury Lip Cheat Liner-Pillow Talk
Zoeva Palette- Cocoa Blend


My highlight has to be my new Olivia Burton Watch, I have never really owned a watch before and I think it is the perfect classy accessory I needed. I am so happy with it, it looks gorgeous on my wrist and the large rose gold face is something that's a bit different and makes it stand out. I don't think it will be leaving my wrist anytime soon!
I am also very excited to try out the Zoeva Palette, the colours look beautiful and I will probably be doing a review in the future.



What did you get for Christmas? I would love to know?

Healthified Chocolate Orange Brownies

I am a massive chocoholic so when I found out that you can create sweet treats with raw cacao and natural sweeteners, that are actually good for you, I was very excited! Especially when they involve the dreamy combo of Chocolate and Orange.
I recently discovered Livia's Kitchen Blog where she shares her love for healthy eating and shows how it doesn’t have to be difficult or expensive and it can still be totally delicious. I really recommend to check out her blog for some amazing recipes, I am so obsessed with them all. She inspired me to make her raw chocolate orange brownies and they are so delicious and chocolatey, even I can't believe they are refined sugar free, raw and totally guilt free, Amazing right?

They are perfect for when you want that chocolate hit but don't want to indulge too much....







Ingredients:
For the Brownie: 

  • 300g of Almonds Pulsed
  • 6 tablespoons of Cacao Powder
  • 200g of Dates
  • 75g Maple Syrup
  • Zest of two oranges

For the Frosting:

  • 85g Almond Butter
  • 40g Coconut Oil
  • 30g syrup
  • 2tablespoons of raw Cacao Powder
  • 1/2 cup of orange Juice
For the topping(optional):
  • Zest of an Orange

Method
  • First pulse the almonds into a course flour in a food processor 
  • Put all the remaining brownie ingredients into the food processor and whiz until all of them are combined. Once combined press firmly into a baking tin and ensure the mixture is even and flat.
  • Next onto the frosting, mix all the ingredients in a food processor again and you should be left with a creamy runny chocolatey sauce. Spread this evenly over the brownie mix.
  • Put the brownie tin in the fridge for a few hours to set.
  • Add the topping and cut into brownie squares.
And Enjoy! So simple and easy to create!



Hope you like this recipe and let me know if you have ever made something similar?

Fake the Holiday Glow all year round

Just because we are now in winter does not mean we need to wave goodbye to our holiday glows. Life is so much better with a tan so why not fake it and look radiant all year round.
I love the process of fake tanning and hate being pale, which means I have tried my fair share of fake-tans on the market and I now have a new favourite the  'Bondi Sands Dark Lotion' and this has been my No1 tan for awhile now. I also love how Bondi Sands is an Australian brand, as surely Australians know how to tan!?



I am not a fan of the orange looking fake tans and much prefer a olivey brown natural look and Bondi Sands delivers just that. The best thing about Bondi Sands is that it is very easy to apply with a mitt, drying almost instantly so you are not left feeling sticky and after you shower in the morning you are left with an incredibly natural looking gorgeous tan that is also streak-free!
The scent of this lotion is coconut which I love, so there is none of that biscuit smell that overpowers some fake tans. You can buy this at Superdrug and it is on offer at the moment for £9.95 which I think is very affordable for such a great quality product and I am keen to try out the gradual tanning milk, also by Bondi Sands which is perfect for everyday use,

So if you are looking for a fake tan to see you through all the festive parties over Christmas and New Years Eve, then I recommend trying this one out to get that holiday glow all year,


Has anyone used this tan before? What is your go-to fake tan?

ABH Dibrow Pomade- Holy Grail Eyebrow Product worth the hype?

I have lusted after this product for SO long now, definitely over a year, but after repeatedly seeing the name 'Anastasia Beverley Hills' under Instagram captions of people with perfectly shaped eyebrows, I knew I needed to be a part of this cult beauty hype. I am so so happy that I finally purchased it, I love it! I am now only wondering why I didn't purchase it sooner!?




Anastasia Beverley Hills has been nicknamed the queen of eyebrows and after trying out the dipbrow pomade in the shade 'Dark Brown', I am now understanding why, it is amazing.
I also picked up the Zoeva wing liner brush after reading great reviews on Beauty Bay and it works perfectly teamed with the dipbrow, the thin angle brush is precise enough to achieve the ideal eyebrow shape. It glides on smoothly and you won't have to worry about it rubbing off  as it is smudge-proof and lasts all day! A little bit really does go along way, so make sure to use a light hand to achieve a more natural yet sculpted brow look. This will also mean the pot will last a super long time.


Dipbrow Pomade definitely deserves it's holy grail status and I urge every girl to try it for themselves as eyebrows are very important after all. A product that can transform and shape your whole face is 100% worth the money in my opinion.

Has anyone else tried this product? Do you believe the hype?

Liquid Lipsticks- Perfect Pink

Its no secret that I am a lover of lipsticks and cannot resist buying more and more, so when I heard the hype around liquid lipsticks I knew I had to get my hands on one. I love the finish of matte lips so I was very excited about this product.




I ordered the Gerard Cosmetics liquid lipstick in the shade 'Serenity' as I had seen this shade a lot over Instagram and it looked like a gorgeous warm pinky shade.
This colour does seem to come up slightly darker on my lips, yet it is still a beautiful colour, perfect for everyday and very wearable. I love how it goes on like a lip gloss with a easy doe-foot applicator but then instantly dries completely matte. I thought this would be very drying however once I applied it onto the lips its not very noticeable at all and the staying power is incredible- it was still on my lips at the end of the day!

I also love the packaging, the frosted glass and gold lid looks very fancy and high end and is a nice new addition to my lipstick shelf.

I am keen to venture further into the world of liquid lipstick and try out other brands to compare. I already have my eye on the Dose of Colours 'Stone' shade, it looks amazing however this brand is not stocked in the UK yet, so unsure if I can afford to spend on the high delivery but I am tempted.

Have you guys ever tried liquid lipsticks, are you a fan?

10 things people obsessed with makeup know to be true




High five to all the beauty addicts out there- I know I am not alone...

Nothing makes you more happy than when your eyebrows are freshly plucked/threaded and on point. Who knew eyebrows would be so important in life?

Owning way too many lipsticks, yet unable to resist buying more because everyone needs options, right?

You could easily spend hours on Youtube watching your favourite makeup artists and beauty gurus. How are they so accomplished in life? Teach me your ways.

Mastering the perfect winged liner will always be a proud moment- even if it did take 3 attempts.

Getting ready for a night out is the best part of your night.

Every time you go shopping you always end up coming home with some kind of beauty product. There's just so much you want to try.

Blending is everything. Foundation, eye shadow, contour, you name it, blending is key.

Loosing one of your favourite lipsticks is always a heartbreaking moment.

You never want to waste your expensive makeup on an insignificant day, but you end up doing so anyway because who knows who you might bump into.

Pretty packaging, especially anything rose gold, is your weakness. Sorry bank account.


Hope you enjoyed this lighthearted post and remember don't let anyone tell you that you own too much makeup, nobody needs that kind of negativity.

Things I have loved throughout October

October is one of my favourite months, mainly because it ends with Halloween, which is a holiday I adore and get excited for every year! I also seem to have been loving a lot of different things this month so I thought I would share them all with you...




1. Justin Bieber 'Sorry'
This song has been on constant repeat since I first listened to it- its just so damn catchy and makes me want to dance along every single time. I am loving Justin Bieber's new tunes at the moment and I have never really been a fan before, more of the same please Biebs...

2. Halloween
As I mentioned, I love all things Halloween and this includes scary films. Horror has always been one of my favourite movie genres but I never seem to watch any. It's hard because not everyone is a fan of horror films. But this year I made time to watch some and I have been loving the old classics such as Halloween, Psycho and Scream.

3. LA Girl Pro Concealer
I have become obsessed with contouring and this is a fab product to use, not only is it cheap(you can buy it from amazon for about £5.80) but it is also the perfect colour for contouring 'Beautiful Bronze' and blends really easily with either a beauty blender or a contour brush.

4. NYX lip liner in Mauve and Mac 'Shy Girl'.
This is my go-to lip combo at the moment and I have had many compliments on this look as it creates a really subtle ombre lip effect which I am a big fan of.

5. James Read Sleep Mask tan for
I have been using this face tan a few times before I go to sleep and and I love the subtle glow I wake up with in the morning. Although its not a dramatic tan I think the product is buildable and perfect for the natural sun-kissed look in the autumn months.

6. Maybelline Age rewind Concealer
Now this product goes hand in hand with my LA Pro-concealer and is the perfect shade to conceal and highlight my face. I love the spongy applicator and it has great coverage for under the eye without causing any creasing. I would not hesitate to repurchase this item again.

7. And lastly I really enjoyed my Halloween makeup look, inspired by Chrisspy who is an amazing makeup artist on YouTube. I am also loving the pink hair dye and kinda wish my hair was like this all the time..



Hope you enjoyed reading my faves this month, what have you been loving this October?

The best breakfast experience | Black Milk Cereal Cafe

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. I agree with this saying which is why I have another breakfast inspired post on the blog. If you are a lover of cereal I think you will enjoy this place...

 Black Milk Cereal Dive is Manchester's very own cereal cafe situated in the Northern Quarter of Manchester in Affleck's Palace. I had enviously eyed their Instagram page for a while, with the incredible array of edible bowls and cereals to the vast amount of sugary toppings to curb any sweet tooth, I knew I had to go and experience it for myself and I was not disappointed.





I opted for Reese's puffs, chocolate Lucky Charms and Cookie Crisp, topped off with marshmallows, M&M's, white jazzles, all covered in salted caramel sauce, served with the cutest mini bottle of milk. The combination was delicious and of course I went for the edible chocolate bowl, however sadly I didn't manage to finish this. The actual cafe was a lot smaller than I imagined with only about 6 tables in the whole place, however this made the experience a lot more cosy and welcoming. The whole idea of a cereal cafe is such a great fun and novelty idea and with so many more yummy combinations to try I will definitely be making another visit.

Have you guys ever been to a cereal cafe? Would you fancy it?

My Go-To Breakfast

As a graduate there are definitely some perks, namely leisurely breakfasts which means I can spend more time making these yummy pancakes without having to rush out the door.

With only two ingredients, these pancakes are not only delicious but also simple and healthy- Winning!
All you need is 1 ripe Banana and 2 eggs
Mash up the banana with a fork and mix together with two eggs in a bowl.
Heat up a pan with a little bit of coconut oil
Add a little bit of mixture at a time forming small round pancakes and that's it. Easy.
Serve your pancakes with any topping, I usually add blueberries and strawberries.

Enjoy!

Graduate Life

So its officially Autumn and I can't believe how quickly life has gone since I donned my graduation gown and said goodbye to Newcastle University forever.(well this is not entirely true I visited my 3rd year friend last week to party away my worries and it was fab) But after returning home again, reality has hit me. I am no longer a student where life is fun and carefree and my biggest decision was what I will be drinking for pre-drinks. For the first time in forever I have no set path to follow, no direction and all that seems to be ahead of me is adult responsibilities and a 9-5 (if I can get one).



I've been applying for grad jobs now since the start of September and the unemployment job hunt can be disheartening, especially if you keep getting knock backs from applications that you spent ages applying for, and you soon come to realise that merely having a degree, won't land you your dream job.

But I think during this confusing transitional period, it is important to remain positive and remember a few things and this is advice I need to hear too.
Try not to compare yourself to others, I know this is not easy when all over social media it seems like your friends are winning at life with their perfect 9-5 job straight out of university. But why waste time worrying and comparing, just do you, everyone's different.
You are not alone, there will be many other graduates who are in exactly the same position as you and who are all probably feeling the same.
If you are unsure what you want to do. It's okay. Take time to relax and really decide what you want as this is a big step and you don't want to rush into your future. Also when you finally do get a job, I'm pretty sure you will look back and miss these days, not setting an alarm for work everyday, free days to do whatever you please and if like me you have moved back home, spending time with your family again. It's not all bad. Make the most of it, read a book you have been meaning to read, get fit and just enjoy being young before adult life takes over.
Not having a plan can also be exciting as who knows what you will be doing in a couple of months time. I am a big believer that everything happens for a reason, so do not worry if you don't have everything figured out yet or have not yet landed that illustrious grad job, just enjoy the ride and keep on going. Lastly have fun, who want's to be a boring adult anyway?




Hope you enjoyed this post, is anyone else feeling the same after graduation?

Raw Cacao and Peanut Butter Bites

I have become a little bit obsessed with Deliciously Ella recently, I have been trying to eat healthier and she has really inspired me with her healthy and raw, yet amazingly delicious recipes. One thing I struggle with when trying to eat healthy is chocolate, I am a huge chocolate lover and find it difficult to curb my sweet tooth. Raw Cacao bites might just be my answer, they are rich-tasting, satisfy my cravings and are soo much better for you than a chocolate bar. Raw Cacao is full of the good stuff and is packed with nutrients and anti-oxidants, amazing right! They are also super simple and easy to make. This is my take and adaption of one of Deliciously Ella's recipes as I didn't have all the ingredients but I still think these taste yummy. Enjoy!

Ingredients

2tbsp Raw Cacao Powder
1 cup of Dates
1tbsp Peanut Butter(optional)
2tbsp Almond Nut Butter
3 Tbsp water

Method
Blend all the ingredients in a food processor
Roll out and form balls 
Easy Peasy






I hope you enjoyed this post, has anyone tried Raw Cacao themselves, what do you think?

Bobbi Brown Gel Liner | Ultra Precise Eye Liner

When I sadly ran out of my favourite gel liner whilst travelling I was quick to repurchase it as soon as I came home and made a visit to the Bobbi Brown counter. One of the ladies who served me recommended the new brush, claiming to be super-fine, allowing you to apply the perfect amount of liner.
Like me, I'm sure most girls are probably familiar with the struggle of applying winged eyeliner evenly, so I bought one in the hope of achieving winged liner perfection.



In my opinion this brush lives up to its name, it is ultra precise and I have found it a dream to apply the gel liner with. It is so much better than the one I have been using for years, with better hold and control- I just wish I had been able to get my hands on this earlier. Yes it is expensive but I can see it lasting a long time, so I really think it is worth the money.

Empties: Beauty products I will be repurchasing

It seems after my little trip across Europe I have managed to run out of all my favourite products after using them daily for 4 weeks. Not great timing when everything runs out on you at once but an excuse to go on a beauty spree after all.




1. YSL Lipstick in Peach Passion
This has to be my holy grail of lipsticks, I won't venture many places without my trusted YSL, a gorgeous colour for the summer, although that doesn't stop me from wearing it all year round.

2. Charlotte Tilbury Lip Cheat Liner
Again, this product is something I use pretty much daily. I don't know what I did before I owned this! It's an Amazing product and in such a neutral colour, I think this should be a staple in every girls beauty bag.

3. Nivea 3 in 1 Micellar Water
I love this stuff. Being a lazy girl and not being that great at keeping up with skin care, this 3 in 1 product is fuss-free and makes my skin feel great after use. It was perfect for travelling as it didn't take up much room and is better for your skin than using makeup wipes.

4. Collection 2000 concealer
I have gone through so many of these tubes and with reason, its great coverage, blends really well and at the bargain price you can't go wrong.

5. Bobbi Brown Gel Liner
Buying this over a year ago, it has been one of my fave beauty products to use. Eye liner has never been so easy to do, it glides on smoothly and doesn't budge all day. I can't wait to try Bobbi Brown's new ultra precise brush to make application even easier.


6. Max Factor infinity primer
If you are looking for something to cover your pores and hide blemishes this is not for you. If you are looking for a basic primer that extends the wear of your makeup then this is the perfect primer. It also has spf 20, which is an added bonus for your skin.

verdict: repurchasing all (sorry bank account)



Do you own any of these products? Let me know

SUNDAY QOTD

Hello again, I have just arrived home after 4 weeks travelling Europe with 3 of the best girls and we had such an amazing time! I will hopefully be doing a blog post on the whole trip once I have gone through the many pictures. 
The trip seems to have just opened up a desire to travel more and by the end of the month we already had a long list of places we wanted to visit next year. 
I am going to leave you with a quote which motivated me to book the ticket and hopefully will pass on the travel bug.

END OF AN ERA: Leaving University




So I have been meaning to write a post for a while but it seems life took over, that being university life and my last ever term as a student.

Having moved out of my student flat in Newcastle and graduation only around the corner, University is well and truly coming to an end and I can't quite bring myself to accept it. It just cant be. Sorry, this post might be a tad emosh.

After two months of living in the library, the weeks after exams were definitely worth it, celebrating with a continuous whirl of partying, dancing, drinking, beachin' and sleeping. The greatest way to top off what has been, without a doubt, the best three years of my life. Newcastle will always have a special place in my heart, holding some of the fondest memories that I will always look back on. 

Some of the things I will miss..

  • SOHO and all those blueberry trebles.
  • Jesmond- The student area where everyone lives on your doorstep, all located around ozzy road, the strip of bars in the middle of jesmond. Hello happy hour.
  • Jesmond tesco and the game me and my flatmates used to play of first person to spot someone wins.
  • Zapatista burritos to get me through the day 
  • My lecture crew and going to the pub for a roast between lectures. 
  • Raiding Primark for all those wednesday night dance socials, aliens, grannies, you name it.
  • Getting ready for nights out whilst boogieing to our fave tunes on the speakers. Kid ink-Show me remix I am looking at you.
  • Flares. The cheesiest and best dancefloor ever
  • Sausage sandwiches from daniela's, the perfect hangover cure.
  • Tynemouth. Beautiful sandy beach only 20 mins drive away
  • Dance society and the tour to croatia 
  • Tup tup. My dancing ground for the past three years and the place that has all the mems.
  • Tequila shots on my birthday morning.

But most of all I will miss the people who have made my time at Uni so fab over the past 3 years.














freshers reunited aww


 Love you all xxxxxxx

So for now it is time to start letting go of Newcastle, but that doesn't mean I am going to face the real world just yet. I am escaping reality for a little bit longer as I am going travelling around Europe for a month! I cannot wait to leave and will be sure to share all my experiences on here when I come home. 
So here's to the future.

I'm going to leave you with a cute quote which I really like

Giorgio Armani Luminous silk foundation | Review

I have finally got my hands on this foundation after wanting it for so long! I read so many raved reviews about this foundation and what swayed me was the idea it gave a really flawless and light weight finish, and after using it I completely agree! What is even better, is that it has no SPF, which means no horrible flash-back photos that make you look like a ghost- result!

I am currently loving this product, but because it was pretty expensive I am trying to save it for special occasions haha.
I have it in shade 6.5 which looks quite dark, but with my fake tan on, it is the perfect match.

The bottle itself feels very luxurious and comes with a pump dispenser which I have think is the best way to use foundation and so easy. Overall, it definitely lives up to the hype and is worth the hefty price tag in my opinion.


Love Mary xo

FAVE FALSIES


My eyelashes are extremely sad and even lashings of mascara can not help my poor excuse for eyelashes. If you one of those girls blessed with fabulous long eyelashes then I am very jealous. If not, like me, then falsies will become your best friend.
I love false eyelashes,they can transform your look in a instant!
I remember first trying them out and finding them quite fiddly and a lot of bother, but since wearing them on every night out for the past 3 years I have become somewhat a pro, being able to put them on in a flash and now even put them on for my friends. Be warned though, once you try them you will never look back!
After trying many different styles I always go back to the natural ones and normally use Eyelure 083 or 107, however, I think I have found my new favourite pair that are even more natural looking -the Ardell Demi Wispies and like the name they are wispy, fluttery and gorgeous on the eyes. 




Without anything 


With falsies


I love the finished look of the eyelashes

 I think the difference is huge and I would highly recommend them. The best bit is that I found them online on www.falseeyelashes.co.uk for £3.99- such a bargain!!

Does anyone else where false eyelashes? what ones do you use?

Best things about going back to UNI after a break

I love uni! It really is the best time of your life and after an extremely long Christmas break at home this year, I am desperate to return to my uni bubble. I shouldn't be complaining though as the only reason I have been able to stay at home for so long is because I have no exams wooo
However, I did find out yesterday that I have an essay I really should be doing, but, as I am the queen of procrastination I have decided to write this blog post instead.




1. Flatmates
You get to live with your besties all day everyday. They get you and you get them. When you are finally reunited after what seems like forever, nothing has really changed and everything just goes back to normal which is FAB. Living with 3 girls there is always someone around and only a door away if you need a gossip, bitch or someone to watch the new episode of Broadchurch with(how amazing is this show!?)

2. Spontaneity
Going out at home seems to take years of planning and often leads to staying in as nobody can be bothered to make the effort. But, at Uni this all changes and deciding to go out at 10pm is spontaneous and easy, and these nights often turn out to be the best!

3. DRUNK FOOD
One thing I have definitely missed is our drunken toast parties after a night out. It tastes sooo good at 3.30am and you never feel guilty because well, you were drunk.

4. Being lazy
and not being judged. At home you are constantly being made to feel guilty by your parents for not doing anything and you will get a disapproving look if you are still in your pj's when they come home from work. But at Uni it is just one constant sleepover and if you wear your pj's nonstop and don't leave the house for a couple of days no-one will really judge you. YAY

5. Getting ready for nights out
Now don't get me wrong I love the nights out but actually getting ready for the night out itself can sometimes be a little more exciting. Especially when you live with 3 girls and our rooms are only a few metres apart. You can have the music as loud as you want, you can drink whilst getting ready and you can decide as a group either heels or flats??

6. Routine
As well as all the fun things, it is nice to get some routine back in your life. Spending 24/7 in your house can get a bit boring and so I am looking forward to getting back to normality and having something to with my days.  

So yes take me back to uni please,(preferably when everyone has finished exams)so we can party and drink and forget that this is our last proper term at Uni because that makes me sad :(

Hope you enjoyed this random post! I would love to hear if anyone else is currently at Uni and whereabouts?

Love mary xo

Nars Audacious Lipsticks | Review

I am a sucker for new lipstick, so I knew I had to get my hands on one of the Audacious lipsticks, when the range came out back in October. A little late to the blog but I had to tell you that 'Audrey' has probably been my most worn lipstick throughout Christmas and New Year and I don't think I will bore of it anytime soon.

The Audacious range from Nars comes in 40 wearable shades so there will definitely be a perfect shade for you. The lipstick itself is highly pigmented,non-drying on the lips and goes on so smoothly- what more could you ask for in a lipstick?

Plus, the packaging is super sleek and exciting as the lid is metallic so provides a very satisfying click on each use.

The colour 'Audrey' is a very unique and is unlike any shade I own. The best way to describe it would be, a mix between raspberry and burgandy- a really gorgeous warm colour.



Overall I would recommend this lipstick and would love to try different shades in the range. Let me know if you have tried this lipstick also?
