Dark Red/Plum Lips - Topshop & Maybelline.

(before I start I just wanna say this lip combo in real life is actually a lot darker, silly camera!)

(just the lipliner)

For a while now I've been obsessed with dark red/plum lips (who hasn't?!) so I thought i'd share with you in particular two products i've been pairing up and wearing a hell of a lot recently! It might be because I'm so pale and it's such a contrast and instantly dramatic or maybe because if you pick the right one it makes your teeth look lovely and pearly white, either way I can't get enough.

From what i've tried, like most beauty bloggers, I really love the Topshop make up range. Especially their lipsticks and nail polishes! I find this lipstick to be very moisturising and easy to wear and absolutely adore it paired with this lipliner, which is also lovely by it's self but for me a little too drying. This is 9 times out of 10 my go to lip combination, especially when I've been lazy doing my eye make up. It's dramatic yet wearable and I feel like it makes me look a lot more put together with minimal effort, which is always a winner in my books.

What are some of your favourite lip combinations?


Thanks for reading.
