Bright Pink Lip Combo // Makeup Monday #3

Today I want to share with you a bright pink lipliner and lipstick combo that I have been enjoying. I know you're supposed to wear subdued / deeper colours in winter but since I don't have much time in the mornings to do anything fancy with the eyes, I like to make my lips pop a bit more so I'm not all bland. Love to know your favourite lip colour of the moment. Hope you enjoy!

| L.A. Colors AL569 Fiery Red Auto Lipliner
It's not the best lipliner in terms of longevity but you will still see colour after a meal. It is just ever so much deeper than the lipstick and provides a nice base. It's also great that you don't have to sharpen it and it's currently US$1.50 on CherryCulture!
| Bourjois Sweet Kiss Lipstick in 57 Fuchsia Class
This is definitely a lipstick that you need lipliner with because it is quite hard to apply precisely (unless of course you use a lip brush but who has time for that :p). It's a super pretty fuchsia pink colour as the name suggests and the staying power isn't great but it is moisturising and doesn't dry out my lips at all.

Swatches
| LA Colors Fiery Red + Bourjois Fuchsia Class (You can see the lipliner adds a touch of red to the lipstick)
| LA Colors Fiery Red
| Bourjois Fuchsia Class

Maybelline Baby Lips // TightAss Tuesday #1

Welcome to TightAss Tuesday!  Every Tuesday (hopefully) I'll do a post on my favourite product under $5. I'll make sure your last fiver gets put to good use (: 

Today is a super duper bonus 5 IN 1 post on my favourite lip balms, Maybelline Baby Lips. So, let's go through some of my Baby Lips collection and the different types that are out there now.

From left to right:

1. Baby Lips Original - Berry  SPF20 (Asia & Oceania)

I have one in every 'flavour', they're just hanging out in a handbag somewhere.. They're all the same: super moisturising, nicely scented, completely clear but gives a slight shine - best drugstore lip balm.

$3.95 for 4g

2. Baby Lips Original - Pink Punch SPF20 (USA)

I have this pink one and the purple one. I'm wearing the pink one at the bottom (fish lips!) and it's the left swatch on my hand. They're not as moisturising as the colourless ones but they don't dry out my lips or make them peel either. They're actually quite pigmented and give a really nice shine. The purple one is not very pigmented i.e. it does not make your lips look purple, just gives a nice shine.

US$2.97 for 4.4g

3. & 4. Baby Lips Glow Pink Blast & Baby Pink 

No SPF with these, not sure why. The balm is supposed to have a slight pink tint which isn't coming up on the photo. Despite this tint, the balm is completely clear, if you're wearing a pink lipstick, it will bring out the 'pinkness' a little bit more and add some shine. It's still moisturising however without the SPF you might as well go with the original.

$3.95 for 4g

5. Baby Lips Colour - Berry Crush SPF16

These are most similar to the USA Baby Lips in that they do have some colour - swatched at the bottom on the right. Unfortunately, this particular one does dry out my lips (although it still lives in my bag and I use it everyday on the tram cos it's quick and easy..)

$3.95 for 4g
