Top 5 Spring Lipsticks/Lipglosses

Hey there :). Another review type majiggy today :) 
Here are my top 5 lipsticks for Spring.
I have included lip products that work with my skin tone (pale with yellow undertones), so these may not work for you, but I love them :). These are the lip products that I reach for during the warmer months.. Not that we get many of them in the UK.. For the spring and summer I like to use kind of dull pinks, as bright pinks/corals scare me quite a lot. Of course I have included my favourite red and nudey colour for spring.
They mainly consist of drugstore products, with one Mac lipstick. Prices etc are listed below :)


This is the Bourjois Effect 3D in Rose Hypothetic 5, retailing at £7.99. This a pretty pink gloss, with silver shimmer running through it. I love the formula, doesn't feel sticky, but best wear your hair up on a windy day because it will stick to your lips.. but hey these are my spring/summer favourites.. what wind?

Here is the Soap & Glory Sexy Mother Pucker XL Lip Plump at £10, in Very Berry . Maaann does this make your lips tingle. It goes on for about half an hour-an hour, if your chatting, it lasts half an hour, if not an hour. I love the colour of this, it's kind of a dull pink, close to my lip colour, with golden shimmer running through it. This gloss is not sticky at all.

My all time favourite! :) Rimmel London, Apocalips Lip Lacquer in Celestial 101, £6.49. I absoloutely love these Lip Lacquers. Everyone's heard of them. I love this particular one, as I find it looks the most natural with my skin. It's a very similar colour to the Soap & Glory one,with a bit more purpe, and less gold shimmer. Apocalips gives a sort of sheen to the lips, but not a gloss. Lacquers tend to be more pigmented than glosses. 

Mac Lipstick, in Snob £15, the most expensive of the 5. Baby pink/purple, could pass off as a nude on some people, but not me. This is on of my more out there shades. I won't wear it very often, but when I do my makeup in a way that suits this lip, it's my first pick. This lipstick is pigmented and creamy, I love how it feels moisturizing as you wear it.
Rimmel Kate Lipstick in 01, £5.49. The perfect, bright, orange toned lipstick. Perfect for making a statement. This Lipstick Lasts around 6 hours, pretty damn good if you ask me. I do also have the matte shade in 107, but that's my winter shade. This red is perfect for spring and summer as it's bright.
Left to right- Bourjois, Soap & Glory, Rimmel Apocalips, Mac, Rimmel Kate.

Hope this helped you find a new lip product for the warmer weather :). Please leave suggestions of a post I should do next..
