Huda Beauty's Liquid Lipstick: Review


Okay so, I already mentioned this in my Instagram post (check it out here if you haven't already), but I absolutely love this lipstick shade! Honestly, I'm a pretty basic gal. Most of my go-to lipstick shades are nudes and browns #noshame. This shade is kind of out of my comfort zone since it definitely is more dark than what I usually go for, and it has a purple tint to it. In my opinion, it's such a good shade!


The formula is quite good and it dries nicely and smoothly. The wear isn't the best out there, as it fades on the inside of your lips when you eat or drink, but it's easy to reapply and it doesn't crust or feel weird. The color just needs a swipe or two to make sure that it reached its full potential and the color pay-off is looking good. It's transfer-proof which is always a good thing! However, it might need lip balm after using it cause it can dry out the lips a little.

So, my overall review? I'll give this product a 8.5/10. I'm kind of biased cause I just love the shade too much! 

Have you tried Huda Beauty's liquid lipsticks before? What are some of your favorite shades?

Fall Lipsticks

In my opinion, lip colours definitely make a statement, whether you're more of a bold, dark lip kind of girl, or you prefer to let the attention go to your eye makeup and so, you choose the subtle, nude lips. Whichever the case, I've got you covered! I gathered a bunch of my favorite lip colours for this time of the year to share with you guys.


--



First off, the infamous Twig lipstick by Mac, which I mentioned in my previous post, my October favorites. It's definitely on the top of my favorites list, since I always gravitate towards it.


Here's one that I recently tried out and fell in love with, the NYX lipstick in the shade MLS22 - Strawberry Daiquiri. This is such a good, affordable lippie! It's so pigmented, long-lasting, and it's definitely matte. Best part is, it's comfortable to wear and doesn't dry out my lips. Love this and I'm definitely going to be trying out more lipstick shades from NYX.


Excuse the horrifying packaging/picture. Honestly, I put this in here purely because it's the only dark lipstick shade that I own. I'm not a bold lipstick wearer.. I rarely go out with red lips, let alone these dark, black/deep purple shades, which is why I don't own many of these shades. I got this H&M lipstick in the shade Up All Night ages ago just for fun, and I'm pretty sure they even stolled making these. It's definitely not the best out there but I enjoy playing around with the colour every now and then. If you're looking for a dark matte lip which is similar to this shade, I suggest you try out the Anastasia Beverly Hills liquid lipstick in the shade Potion or for a more affordable choice, the NYX soft matte lip cream in the shade Transylvania. I've heard great reviews about both.

On a side note, H&M just came out with a totally new makeup line, and so far, I've heard nothing but good reviews about the new products. I can't wait to try some of them and tell you how I feel.


And finally, this is for when I want the eye makeup to do the talking, I go for a nude lip. Here, my choice is the Essence lipstick in the shade 05 Dare To Be Nude. I mentioned before that I love Essence's lipsticks/lipliners and I'm saying it again. This lipstick is really creamy and has a good pigmentation to it. It's just a pretty good choice to go for when hou'rs looking for a nude choice. 

So that's it for this post, I hope you guys enjoyed it and liked the products. Let me know in the comments what you might want to see next! Thanks for reading, loves x
