Orange Lips?



I absolutely love orange'y peachy lips. I think they're great and flattering apart from the typical pink or red lips. Since spring is coming up, I think they're perfect for everyday looks. I especially love peachy lips during the summer. I own 4 peachy/orange lip colours.



First the one at the top is Rimmel Lasting Finish Lipstick in Crush, it's more orange'y than the others and I love how becomes more of a peach colour when it shows up on my lips. It's not drying or moisturizing but I do like. But since it's more matte I like to layer a gloss over it.

Next is Revlon Colorburst in Peach. This one is pretty popular. Unfortunately since my lips are kind of pigmented it doesn't really show up well on lips. Nonetheless sometimes when my lips aren't so dark I like to throw this on because I love the colour and how it's more moisturizing than other lipsticks I have tried. It's more of a natural peach and that's why I like

The one at the side a gloss and it's also pretty popular. It's the Revlon Super Lustrous Lip Gloss in Life's a Peach. I love these lip glosses! They have great pigmentation and they're not too sticky and they're long lasting. Life's a Peach is nice peachy colour with gold glitter in it, it doesn't feel gritty at all. A very flattering shade, alone or on top of a lipstick.

Next 2 is Covergirl's Natureluxe Gloss Balm in Coral. This is my favourite peachy lip colour right now. It's small and portable and easy to ship out to apply when you're on the go. It's very buildable. The first swatch I swiped it 5 times on my hand, the second time I swatched it about 10 times. On your lips it gives it a light peach tint and it also has some glitter but again, not gritty. It's pretty moisturizing which a great plus because of my dry lips and it gives them a glossy finish so there're no need for gloss or anything. I will do a separate review of this in the next few days with lip swatches and everything.

Hope you enjoyed this post! Until next time xoxo

Hi everyone!

I'm Lychee (not my real name) and today I am opening my new beauty blog! *claps* I am a huge shopaholic and I thought I'd share my experiences with the different beauty products I tend to buy so often.

Some things I'd like to say about myself is that I love to buy things that have great reviews online and whatnot. Great packaging is also a plus for me. I love trying high end cosmetics and lower end cosmetics because both have their pros and cons. I want to post up detailed reviews and have pictures that can satisfy your needs.

I'm going to start off with my most recent haul which was actually a while ago, about 2 weeks, I've been a bit busy lately and I haven't gone shopping.



What I Bought:
Maybelline the Falsies Waterproof (for my sister)
Stila Illuminating Tinted Moisturizer with SPF 15
Necklace (freebie)
Sally Hansen Nail Polish (freebie+gave it to my sister)
Stila Convertible Color in Orchid
Solanoveil (?) Sunscreen SPF 50+++
Revon Colorburst in Soft Nude
Shiseido Water in Lip in Strawberry
Dr.Jart BB Cream Black Label

The Revlon Colorburst actually melted a little bit and got all over the tube so I had depotted it and put it into a clean jar. The jar used to hold my Maybelline Dream Mousse Cream Blush but I finished it a long time ago. This was after I opened it and used it so I couldn't return it. But I honestly love this lipstick, I love pairing it up with my Kat Von D Lightning Sheer Lip Gloss in Fierce Red, it makes such a pretty colour! But I think this lip gloss was discontinued because I can't find it at Sephora anymore =( This sucks because the tube is kinda leaking out gloss and I keep having to wipe it, what a waste!

Anyway, that's it for now, maybe I'll do a post on my staple items currently, or a review. Thanks for reading.
