Hey Beautiful People

I got this Super Saturated lip colour In Crush in the mail a few weeks ago and I've fallen in love, Sadly for most international ladies and gents Urban Decay is not available However the answer to our dilemma is a little UK company called beautybay.com they have a range of products not avaiable out of the USA or the UK and the shipping is free world wide for one lip colour it is $21.01 AUS which is very similar to the USA prices. Beauty bay ship quickly well i normally recieve an order withing 2-3 weeks.

Crush is a beautiful in-your-face Pink it applys smoothly and is very pigmented, during application there is minimal tugging. For the formula its self it is very hydrating my lips did not feel dry and i was left with a pretty shine. There is a faint hint of scent I cant pick it quite it smells slightly sweet I want to say a hint of vanilla?

The downside to this amazing product is that its not a twist up product so when you run out you have to sharpen. which isnt a issue if you have a sharpener near by however i dont keep one on hand most of the time haha.

This product can stand a reasonable about of heat I kept it in my pocket while at work for touch ups the formula didnt go 'gooey' which is a bonus. Would i recomment this product a big YES i cant wait to get my hands on more as I do I will be sure to blog about them ;)




Whats your fave way to apply lip colour? direct from the tube, by brush, finger etc

Final thoughts: This is a great product easy to re-apply and carry around the not so great things is because its a pencil you only have limited prodcut avaiable (well unless you carry around a sharpener) overal highly pigmented with lasting power.

 Hey Ya'll
 
Lets take a look a Geek Chic Cosmetics Joy Stick in Hipster Ariel today shall we? great idea ^_^
OK so lets talk lippys first now I KNOW we ALL own at least one pink,red,orange and nude lippy but not many of us wear bright lippys it seems to be a status quo thing which sucks coz Hipster Ariel is an AMAZING opaque metallic blue lipstick. For being a bold colour Hipster Ariel is not drying on the lip as it has moisturizing Jojoba Oil and Vitamin E in its formula, the Joystick is also mint flavoured which I personally find nice =)
 
The overall shape of the joystick isnt ideal for a perfect application in my opinion Hipster ariel is BEST applied with a lip brush (whick i have done in the lip swatches below). If you like Hipster Ariel you can purchase it on the Geek Chic Cosmetics webstore for $5.99 USD.

Final thoughts:  Hipster Ariel is a opaque metallic blue shade which applys smoothly i find best applied with a lip brush to get into the fine lines on the lips. This shade will wear quite quickly if you eat and drink.
