Review : e.l.f lipstick

E.l.f main range lipsticks only cost 1,5 pound and I have to say, they are some my favorite products this year!
Here are some swatches to take a look at first:
From Left to Right : Seductive , Fantasy , Gypsy, Voodoo
The colours are all well pigmented and on the lips they have a smooth, rather matte application.

When I was buying them I was rather sceptical. Will a 1,5 pound lipstick really last more than 10 minutes?
Well they all do last for a long time (even after lunch and coffee-my ultimate test drive) and keep my lips hydrated at the same time.
The packaging is neat and practical, as you can see the actual color of the lipstick without taking the cap off. It looks like this:
It contains 3,5 grams of actual product which is good quantity for it's price.
Overall, value for money is excellent! I'm planning on buying all available shades! What about you :) ?
Till next time,
Dee

China Glaze Cha Cha Cha

It was about time I sported a nice green! This is from the summer 2011 china glaze collection and it is a lovely green shimmer :


Doesn't it resemble a precious stone ? :) I love the gold shimmer in it and the application was very smooth. This is 2 coats with top coat. 
After this manicure I think I'm gonna wear more fall-esque colours. I'm kinda sick of the brights at the moment. What do you think of cha cha cha? Till next time,
Dee

Fall Loves Nails

I am so excited about fall collections! Dark , murky, rich colors and at last no more corals! It's not that I don't like corals and vibrant pinks but it's the only thing I've seen the whole summer! Come on guys, you can do better than this! Anyway, to the point. This is the fall Essie collection for 2011 which seems rather intriguing!



 
Case Study - An on trend dusty camel








Glamour purse - An Almond taupe








Lady Like - Mauvish pink








Power Clutch - Grey ~ Green







Carry on - A warm Burgundy







Very Structured - A beautiful Sienna!





What do you think? I'll definately be buying very structured and case study! Somehow I feel I miss colors like that in my collection! Till next time,
Dee
