Benefit Ultrashine Lipgloss - Nudie Tude

I love a bright lip but recently I've been so busy that I'm reaching for more easy to wear, little upkeep lip colours and this is one of them....

Benefit Ultrashine lip glosses have (as the name suggests) a lovely shine finish and they're not sticky!! Yay!!
I hate sticky lip glosses, hair gets stuck to them and lord help you if you need to eat something when wearing one, no thank you! The applicator is a mini brush which I don't like as much as traditional lip gloss applicators but can live with as it's quite short.

This particular colour, Nudie-tude, is a golden nude shade with a hint of pink and small glitter particles.  Don't let the glitter put you off as it's not gritty  on the lips and adds to the shiney finish.

Nudie-tude has typical lip gloss wear of a few hours but is easily re-applied, brilliant for a simple colour with no worries of fading unevenly or becoming patchy.

Benefit Nudie-tude £14 from Benefit Cosmetics counters nationwide or online.

Chanel Rouge Coco Shine - Chance

I've been lusting over Chanel Coco Shines for some months now and have finally bought one!!  Chanel packaging is always so simple yet so elegant. I love having this lipstick in my make up bag and not only for its appearance.

Being a bit of a pink addict, I went for the colour Chance which is a cool pale pink, very girly!  On application, the sheer pale pink colour is light and can be built up for a more intense pink.  After a few hours wear the pale pink and shine disappear but I find my lips are left with a deeper pink stain.

I think these are great in all seasons, in summer because the colour is sheer and natural and in the winter months for the lovely hydrating qualities. There's also a wide range of colours available so you could choose a different one for each season!  Overall I'm a little bit obsessed, I've almost forgotten about all of my other lipsticks these past few weeks!! Need to mix it up....

Current Lip Obsession - Urban Decay Super Saturated High Gloss - Big Bang!

I am loving this just now!! Urban Decays Super Saturated High Gloss in Big Bang is an amazing chubby pencil that gives the most pigmented, pink, glittery lip colour!!

One sweep of this bad boy gives lips full on colour that stays.  I can't believe how moisturising it is, lip colours this creamy normally don't last very long but this stays put for hours and even after it evenly fades away lips are left with a gorgeous stain of colour.

Big Bang has glitter in it and this is noticeable when applied but surprisingly doesn't feel gritty or 'bitty'... AMAZING!! I think the pencil is great for carrying around too and make it easy to apply....only downside being sharpening but get yourself a large sharpener and pop the pencil in the freezer for a few hours before and you'll loose less product!!

Available from House of Fraser for £14 here.

Have you tried any of the other colours?! Which one should I go for next?
