Empties #54

I have recently done another lip clear out, and I sincerely think that out of all the categories, lips are one of the worst for me. Okay I have quite a lot of foundation and eye makeup too, but lip products are out of control.

I actually like the NYX soft matte lip cream but not every shade is made equal. For example the blue and the purple are really patchy whereas the softer colours tend to be better.

I cannot even remember what these are called and I do not see them in store anymore, but these are glossy and the nude shade was really lovely. I probably will not buy glossy bold shades ever again. I just do not wear them!

The essence lip balm-gloss are actually really lovely and I would totally repurchase. The matte lip I did not like as much.

These Jouer liquid lipsticks which are called creme lipsticks, are actually really beautiful on the lips. I did find that they dried out a lot faster than my usual liquid lipsticks, which was really sad since I like these a lot.

These Emina Creamatte shades I am clearing out because these shades I do not wear as much. The formula was quite impressive though.

This Catrice Rosewood lip gloss is an absolute winner. I love it a lot.

I picked up this Becca lip gloss in a Space NK sale and I actually do not really like it. One of the few fails from Becca. It was sticky and just a mess.

This is my second oil infusion from Sephora. I like these a lot and they are all lovely with a sheer wash of colour. Brilliant.

This is a L'oreal lip powder and it was an interesting one. I thought I really like it but I actually hardly ever reach for it. It actually applies nicely but if you eat or drink at all, it wears off in a really odd way.

This It Cosmetics Lip Gloss, I do not like. It applies and looks a little milky, which I just do not like but my mum likes it so I have gifted it to her. That just shows you how personal beauty can be. Oh and it comes with a lip brush instead of a a doe foot applicator (my preference).

This Missha lipstick, I have wrestled from my mum to chuck because this is definitely about 10 years old. This was given to me by a friend back when I was studying in Singapore, which is about 2006-2008 time. That is insane.

This Soap & Glory Mini Gloss Stick is actually really lovely. I love it, but it has gone a little odd since it melted a bit in my bag and so I am saying goodbye to it.
