Dark Pink Lipstick Dupe


Im not a MUA just a makeup fanatic! This is one of my first makeup related posts and I wanted to share with you guys one of my favourite lippy dupes I found. So in one of my pictures on Instagram I got a lot of feedback regarding the lip colour I was wearing. It was actually a mix of a Mac lipstick 'Mehr' and my new fave Sleek lip liner in 'Lingerie 294'. I tend to refrain from wearing my more higher end brands of makeup on an every day basis and try to find dupes so Im not wasting them. One of my fave dupes was the Sleek 'Eau la la' lip liner in 'Lingerie' which I find very similar to the Mac 'Soar' lip liner. The Sleek lip liner was £4.99 making it more than half the price of the Mac Lip Liner which was £12.50. However I actually prefer the Sleek one as it is water proof and smudge proof allowing it to stay on longer than the Mac one but is very annoying to sharpen as it has a plastic tip so can be easily damaged. Nevertheless, the Sleek lipliner was a winner for me.



Here I mixed the Mac 'Mehr' with the Sleek Lip liner 'Lingerie 294' (I probably wore more of the lipliner than I did of the lipstick)


















Sleek 'Lingerie' Lip Liner - £4.99

Mac Mehr - £15
I hope this helped ♥

Winter Warms

So winter is here and the best part about it is wrapping up! I love being able to layer up and wear all my coats. I love wearing turtle necks as they are super comfy and look great with anything! An ideal item for any winter look. 

Here I wore a turtle neck jumper dress which is from H&M, I have also come across a few others in Zara and other stores. The feel of the jumper isn't the best as I have had softer and comfier ones but for the price it was good. This was the only colour that they had and probably the nicest as its a light beige brown so you can pair it up with anything. I wore it with a pair of tan tights as it was quite cold,  a long dark navy coat which is from Zara, a pair of black heeled boots also from Zara and a black Asos hand held bag which I purchased last year.











Zara Navy Coat - £79.99
H&M Turtle Neck Dress- £14.99
Zara Heeled Boots - £19.99
Black Asos Hand Held Bag - £39.99

Hope you've had a good week ♥
