Yesterday I bobbed into TopShop to take took a look at their make-up collection and I did indeed spend, although I am trying to save for University.
I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of make-up in my local Topshop store. I am a rather indecisive person so the large collection made it even harder for me to choose a lipstick shade. However I finally ended up purchasing a light peachy coral lipstick - Ohh La La.
My first impression of the lipstick (although we don't judge a book by its cover) comes from the packaging. Its a cute simple pattern in ivory and black however after only having it a day you can see in the top image it is prone to scratching and due to it being ivory, it may stain easily.
The lipstick itself is a nice formula, it is rather creamy and therefore the application can look uneven if your lips are a little dry. I would recommend moisturising your lips before you apply the lipstick as it can stick to the dry patches, however a coat of lip gloss on top will even the patches out and add more shimmer.
The lipstick looks nicely pigmented in the swatch above however it is more subtle on your lips resulting in it being a perfect Spring lipstick. The coverage is medium and the finish only slightly matte. The duration of the lipstick is around 2 hours therefore if you are wearing it for a special occasion, keep it in your purse as you will need a top up.
Do you have any items from Topshop's make up collection?
