Spring Lipsticks

So as I said in my last post I went shopping on Saturday and I splurged! I must've spent like three hours in boots alone. 

This is just a short post about my two favourite finds, funnily enough they are 

both lipsticks, I don't know why but I'm loving lip products at the moment. They are both quite bright and similar so I thought I'd just talk about them both in the same post, here it goes...

1. Models Own Matte Hyper Brite Lipstick in Orangeade

This was the first of the two which I purchased and the main reason I bought this was because I read in GLAMOUR magazine that brunettes with brown eyes should try orange lipsticks as they are suppose to look super flattering so I thought I'd give it a try and I'm so glad I did! Its so pretty and really brightens up my look. 

The lipstick glides on and you don't even need to use lip pencil which makes it an easy

 fix if you're in a rush. The lipstick is super soft and although it is orange is has more of a coral finish when compared to Infrared by Topshop which is more of a red colour. 

It's not super smudge proof but it stays on well without reapplication.

Here are some pictures I took to show you guys...

2. Topshop Lips in Infrared

So this is the second Lipstick and it is from my beloved Topshop! I absolutely adore Topshop make up packaging, it's adorable and I think it's definitely my favourite packaging. 

So tbh, I was sucked into loving this lipstick before I even tried it but it didn't disappoint.

It's more red than orange but not too bright that it lights up a room which means I personally can wear it without feeling self conscious.

It's got more of a silk finish than the Models Own Lipstick which means it is a little more dressed up. 

It's a small bullet like lippie so perfect for slinging in my purse on my way out of the house.

This is really quite high on the smudge proof scale, I'd give it about a 7 because it does tend to stay on but needs to be reapplied if you're eating and it only leaves a faint glass stain, which is probably the worst part of the lipstick.

Like I said, they are quite similar but the subtle difference is what makes them both perfect for different occasions.

Hope you guys like my two current spring lipsticks and I'll be back again soon!
