Style Saturday: Lipstick and Nail Polish Haul

Hello! Welcome to Style Saturday. As you can tell from the title this is not a fashion style post but a makeup-style post. I recently picked up a number of lip products as well a few nail polishes and I thought I would share them:


These are the lip products I picked up. From L-R: Rimmel Lasting Finish in Asia, Rimmel Kate Lasting Finish in 14, Rimmel Kate Lasting Finish in 104, Revlon Super Lustrous in Blushing Mauve, Revlon Super Lustrous in Icy Violet, and Maybelline Baby Lips Dr. Rescue in Too Cool.

Rimmel Lasting Finish in Asia. This is a mauve/brown shade that is in between Airy Fairy and Paradise. I really like the formula and finishes of Rimmel lip sticks so I think this will be a great daily neutral lip colour.

Rimmel Kate Lasting Finish in 14.  I have never tried the Kate Moss line so I thought I would try this shade. It is a nude/pink shade that has a matte finish. I think this will be great with a smokey eye or winged liner.

Rimmel Kate Lasting Finish Lipstick in 104. This is the darkest of the Rimmel shades. It is a more raspberry/brown shade. It also matte which would be better for a night out, as matte shades have a longer staying power. 

Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick in Blushing Mauve. I wore this one today and it is already my favourite! It is the perfect daily lip colour. It is a pearl finish, and is the same colour as my lips. This has a super creamy and long wearing formula.

Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick in Icy Violet. This was one of the first Revlon lip stick colours. It was first introduced in 1946, was discontinued, and then voted back. I haven't worn it yet but I hear it is more of a mauve than a violet. Great for a "bright" lip and bun day.

Maybelline Baby Lips Dr. Rescue in Too Cool. Due to the cold weather my lips have become incredibly dry, and I had heard great things about this medicated lip balm. There was a warning on the box that said not to use it more than 3-4 times a day. I guess because them it will actually begin to dry out your lips. So far it a has kept my lips moisturized for about 3-4 hours, even under lip stick and after eating.

Here are the 2 nail polishes I picked up. They are Revlon's Spanish Moss and Charming.

I am wearing Spanish Moss on my nails. This is a great khaki colour which is perfect for spring. Khaki goes well with any colour and this has a cream finish and is wearing well (usually my nails chip within a day).

I hope you enjoyed this post and are having a great weekend! Until next time...

Summer Lace OOTD and Natural Makeup Tutorial

Hello everyone! Today's OOTD is my favourite summer look. Lace, loose waves, and a natural makeup look. It was nice and warm today so I brought out one of my favourite dresses. It is from American Eagle, and was given to me by one of my friends a few years ago. I like that it is strapless as when I am outside enjoying the sunshine I don't have to worry about awkward tan lines! I went with a natural and glowing makeup look today, and I even filmed it for you! You can watch the video below. It is inspired by the gorgeous Gigi Hadid. xx Jess Instagram: jessicakinnari
