The Kylie Jenner Lip


It will probably come as no surprise that I am just as obsessed over the Kylie Jenner lip trend as everybody else is. It seems that everybody in the world is now after that perfect pout! Mind you, I am a little late hopping onto the bandwagon as I wasn't sure whether the nude-y brown look would suit my complexion... but low and behold, it does! Up until now I have definitely been more of a bold lip kinda gal but recently, I have been leaning towards nude shades more than ever before! Therefore, today I wanted to share a few of my favourite products with you that mimic Kylie's look perfectly. Let's get started!

First up is Bourjois' Rouge Edition Velvet in Beau Brun (£8.99.) I have been a huge fan of this range of liquid lipsticks ever since they launched and have raved about them many times on my blog before! So when I found out that they had released a few new shades, including a nude-y brown, I had to get my hands on it pronto. Now, this product is not as nude as the other two in this post. In fact, Beau Brun is quite a vivid nude with brown undertones (it's a pretty hard colour to describe!) It may not be the classic Kylie shade but I have seen her rock a colour like this before and it's still just as gorgeous!

Next is MAC's Velvet Teddy Lipstick (£15.50,) the most famous shade that Miss Jenner is rumoured to use. This lipstick has become so popular over the past year that it's almost always sold out and is near on impossible to get hold of at times! However, luckily for me, my good friend Chloe who actually works for MAC got one for me as soon as it was back in stock. As you can imagine, this shade is just as amazing as everybody makes it out to be. It's the perfect 90's shade that looks beautiful on so many skin tones.

Last but not least is Rimmel's Exaggerate Lip Liner in Addiction (£3.99.) Not only is it near on a perfect dupe for Velvet Teddy, only every so slightly darker, it's an absolute bargain too. I love finding drugstore products like this! I have only recently gotten into using lip liner but now I'm a complete convert and I cannot wait to start collecting some more colours to add to my collection. The Exaggerate range is quite creamy and so I have been enjoying using this shade all over the lips, as well as using it just the outline them.

So, there you have it guys. Those are three of my favourite shades to get Kylie's look at the moment! Which shade is our favourite? Are you a fan of this trend too? Let me know by leaving a comment down below, I'd love to hear your feedback!

Mini Spring Beauty Haul


Hi guys. It's been ages since I last did a good old-fashioned mini beauty haul but today I am rectifying that! This morning, I headed off to town in order to have a little browse in both Boots and The Body Shop. There are so many great products being released at the moment and I had so much fun looking around - I came out with a hand full of swatches, classic beauty blogger style! I didn't go crazy but I did get a few bits that I wanted to share with you all today. So, let's get started!

The Body Shop Camomile Sumptuous Cleansing Butter - £12.00
I have been using the cleansing oil from this same range for quite a while now but I am now close to running out. I was going to repurchase it, however, I decided to pick up the butter version instead to see how it compares. There was a tester of it in the store and from what I could tell, it's a gorgeous texture. I can't wait to use it for the first time tonight to remove my make-up - I'll be sure to let you know how I get on!

Bourjois Rouge Edition Velvet in Beau Brun - £8.99
I already have two other shades from this range and I absolutely love them, they are definitely some of the best lip products from the drugstore in my opinion. I love the formula, the finish and the longevity of them! I decided to pick up this dark nude, brown shade à la Kylie Jenner as I don't own any other colours like this in my lipstick collection.

Rimmel Scandaleyes Waterproof Eyeliner in Nude - £3.99
I have seen so many people rave about how wearing a nude eyeliner on your waterline really opens up your eyes and makes you appear way more awake than you actually are! I have heard that this one from Rimmel is really popular and I'm looking forward to adding this new simple step into my make-up routine.

Rimmel Exaggerate Lip Liner in Addiciton - £3.99
Similarly to the Rouge Edition Velvet above, I have been wanting to try out the whole Kylie Jenner lip trend for a while now and I wanted to experiment with some drugstore alternatives to see if it suits me before I bit the bullet and by MAC's 'Velvet Teddy.' I have heard a lot of great things about Rimmel's lip liners, so I picked up this gorgeous shade called 'Addiction.'

That's it for my mini beauty haul! I'm really happy with all of my new purchases and I cannot wait to start using them immediately. I'll make sure to come back and review the products properly once I have tested them out. What do you think of what I picked up? What have you purchased beauty wise recently?
