Lush lipstick Reveiw !

So for my birthday my boyfriend got my a little lipstick from lush!
Charm is a very light bubble gum shade of pink, very sweet and girly looking which is quite differnt to my normal look of browns and purple toned lipstick. I don't tend to go for such light pinks due to having a very pale scottish skin tone
This is how the product looks on my lips, because it's such a light shade it's quite translusent. The product has quite an oily base so i don't like building this up because I feel like it just slides of, so insted I've been using it to tone down darker lipsticks to make the more skintones/nude.
Here is an example;
This is just an MUA velvet lipstick on my lips
And here is it with Charm on top;
The good thing about the oil base means it blends in well with the velvet lipsticks by MUA, these lipsticks don't always take well to other products due to them being so matte and drying but the oil works well with them.
So although this shade on its own doesn't work to well On my lips, I love using it as a way to tone down other shades! And it keeps my lips moist when using matte lipsticks! 
It was a good buy from the boyfriend this time!

Day light results for lipstick concealer!

Carrying on from my post last night here is my day light photos of lipstick concealer!

Still pretty happy with the results. I was worried at first I might end up looking like I've been punched going to uni, but my eyes are looking pretty clear!

Lipstick concealer!!

Ok, ok! I've been wanting to try this for a while and after watching grav3yardgirl on YouTube I decided to try it for myself! 
I an using L'Oreal Colour Riche, Shade 373 which is magnetic coral.
So the way I've seen girls doing it is by applying lipstick under your eye as if it is a concealer( actual concealer is applied later) and it should look like this
I should also point out, my flash didn't go off its night time and I've had a very long day in the pouring rain so my completion is horendouse😔 so let's just ignore that and focus on the lipstick! I have blended it around the edges just because I do this with concealer normally.
This is how it looks with my concealer, foundation and a little bit of transparent power over.
 
Im so surprised with the results! As someone who ALWAYS had huge dark circles under my eyes, this has worked so well! I am going to start using this in my make up routine from now on and I will post a follow up photo of it in the day light:)

What is in the post today!?

Mac came in the post today, that's what!
This is my first time ever ordering from
Mac and man, I was excited! I tested out samples of the foundation before to see what suited me the best. Studio sculpt fix gives a medium coverage that can be built up for a more going out look. It's light weight and doesn't make you feel as if you have to much make up on. It also has SPF 15 so it's great for the summer time!
My lipstick is in the colour 'Faux' a slightly  darker shade that 'Myth', which is good for me as I like a slightly darker nutural lipstick :)  
Feeling like its Christmas today with this delivery!🎉🎁
