A week in drugstore lipsticks

Monday - Pout (Avon)
Tuesday - Barely There (Sleek)
Wednesday - Cotton Candy (Collection 2000)
Thursday - Nude Delight (Rimmel)
Friday - Beehive (17)
A bit like my week in MAC lipsticks I thought I'd challenge myself to a week in drugstore lipsticks.  And yes, "challenge myself" is the correct term, because all week I was desperate to put on my new Viva Glam Nicki!  You may also notice that I only lasted five days.  I've definitely learnt that while there's nothing wrong with a drugstore lippie once in a while, I'm certainly a MAC girl at heart and the quality speaks for itself.  My lips have taken a battering this week and feel really dry, so I'm looking forward to wearing something a bit more nourishing!

    1. The Sleek lipsticks are fab...I wasn't a fan of the matte variety, but this is a sheen and is great! x

  3. Thursday's is my favourite, I have that Rimmel lipstick and it's a lovely nude :)

    1. It's really good on top of other lipsticks too...I like pairing it with MAC Creme d'Nude or Snob x

  5. I love Tuesday and Thursday! I'll get me the Rimmel one soon, as it's an excellent nude!
    Beehive looks good on you as well. I might be the only person that the specific lipstick won't work on.

    1. Lily Pebbles said she didn't like Beehive, so perhaps it's not just you! It's not a great quality and at first reminded me of the fake make up I used to have as a child (peel off nail varnish anyone?) but it's very moisturising and easy to wear x
