The Perfect Pink Lip: Dior & Chanel


Who says you can't rock a pink lip during fall?
 
I come to you with my perfect combination for a hot pink lip. These two colors will create the perfect pink color that is wearable enough during the day or at night. I have worn this combination with a ton of different eye looks and I find it suits them all pretty well.

The lip stick is from the Dior Addict Extreme line and is in the shade 553 Princess Extreme (seems like this shade was limited edition, I have seen it around at a few counters so check your local  Dior counter, Dior Addict Highshine in 454 Rose Show is a really good dupe!) This shade in particular is a yellow toned hot pink that you can apply a lightly or go full on depending on how deep you want the color to be. I find the formula for this range of lipsticks to be one of my favorites because they are  build-able, creamy, moisturizing and last but not least, just plain beautiful. I am patiently waiting for the Sephora friends and family sale so I can pick up another shade or two.

The other half to the duo is Chanel Rouge Allure Extrait de Gloss in 57 Insolence. This lip gloss is somewhat of a gel texture and is non stick with a very high shine which is most likely due to the gel formulation. I don't find it particularly sticky but it does have a bit tackiness. The gloss is definitely more of blue toned pink which is why it works so well with the lipstick. The two neutralize each other out which helps to create the perfect pink color.

Here is the duo in all its glory:

Face:
Foundation: NARS Sheer Glow in Santa Fe
Blush: NARS blushers in Madly and Orgasm
Bronzer: Benefit's Hoola
Highlighter: Dior Amber Diamond

Eyes:
Mascara: Covergirl Lash Blast
Eyeliner: YSL Eyeliner Effect Faux Cils Shocking
Eyeshadow: random assortment from UD's Naked & Naked 2

Lips:
Lipstick: Dior Addict Extreme in 553 Princess Extreme
Lipgloss: Chanel Rouge Allure Extrait de Gloss in 57 Insolence

Nars Luster and Revlon Lip Butter in Candy Apple


Today, I thought I would share with you guys one of my  two of my favorite go-to make up products for the summer time. The first one that I am going to mentions is by Nars and it is their blush in Luster. Luster is described to be a sheer golden apricot, I would describe it as being a peachy orange with red undertones. It is really pretty on the cheeks and warms up the skin a little making it look like you have a nice glow or have been in the sun a little to long. I recommend this blusher to anyone as I think it would be suitable to most skin tones.  I especially think this blusher would look good on those with blue eyes because the color of the blush would help your eyes stand out more!

You can purchase it at your local Sephora or the Sephora website.

The next product I would like to suggest to all you is the Revlon Lip Butter in Candy Apple. It is no secret that I love my red lip sticks and Candy Apple is a red lipstick that has a more sheer formulation. It can be easily be built up to a more brighter red and can also be toned down and more sheered out. I think the color and the formulation are especially great for the summer time.  I tend to go for more of a bright lip rather than doing my eyes during the summer because it is so much hotter and I don't want to end up with panda eyes.


The Revlon Lip Butter can be purchased at you local drugstore.

And now for photos:

FOTD / Ramble

Hey everyone! Its been over two weeks since I have put up a post. Which is ridiculous! Over the weekend I was at a wedding and thought I would try and see if I could get a quick picture of my make up that day:


On my face, I have my trusty Nars Sheer Glow in Santa Fe along with mac apricot blush mixed in with bobbi brown on the apples. I used Hool by benefit to bronze and contour.

For my eyes I used the mark. eyeshadow in london all over the lid and the darkest shade in the maybelline quad chai latte in the crease. I also used the mark. eyeshadow in whisper in the inner corner and on my brow bone.

For the lips I lightly dabbed on my maybelline lip stain in blushing and topped it off with the a dior addict lipstick called backstage rose 554, I believe the name has been changed to It pink.

That was pretty much my make for the day. If any of you have any questions feel free to comment below.

Also the Revlon lip butters were recently on sale at shoppers drug mart for only 3.99. Now this is the part where I lower my head in shame, I picked up 11 of them. All I can say is I simply adore them. They have the perfect amount of pigment and shine for those lazy days and, there going to be perfect for the summer.

I probably won't be talking about them any more since there has been so many reviews on them already. But if anyone would like to know or needs more info just leave a comment.

Thanks for reading everyone. Hope you week is going well.
