Found the most perfect nude lipstick! It's one of those nice pinkey beigey ones (so hard to find for dark skin) instead of pure corpse lip beige. It's 102 rouge automatique by Guerlain (and £25!!) but my birthday is coming up so meh :P

I found one similar, really nice nude which looks quite good on me, it's pumpkin pie by NYX, not nude as in my lip colour nude but nude as in nude. I love it! XxQuote:

I'm not sure tbh, I bought the lipstick from ebay and I'm getting some jumbo pencils in a few swaps tho. They're a good 'drugstore' brand. xx
Then again I also feel kind of silly because I end up wondering-why do I want a lipstick similar to my lip colour -.- :L Does anyone else?
I often do want one similar to my lip colour, means that my lips don't feel nude but I can still wear a dramatic eye :) xx
I used to think that but it still defines my lips nicely and gives them a more fuller shape if that makes any sense? Without being too dramatic as well.Quote:

NYX is fun. I don't love everything of theirs but the jumbo pencils are a nice colour base for vibrant shades. IF applied thin over a primer so they don't crease.
think I may have found my new favourite beauty product :D
veet precision facial wax, seriously easiest thing to use in the world and relatively painless. Tried it last night on the old monobrow and it was the easiest thing to use plus there's no mess and the precision tip means you can apply the wax exactly where you need it so it's good by unsightly stray hairs and also good bye to the oh crap moment when you realize you've waxed of half your eybrow by mistake
really easy to use as well just warm the tube in a cup of hot water for a minute or two apply a thin layer of wax to the area that you want to wax using the beveled tip on the tube to spread it in the direction of the hair growth (the tube looks a bit like a lipgloss tube) place a fabric strip on smooth over 2/3 times and pull the strip of in the opposite direction to the hair growth
and bob's your uncle (or auntie) plus the fabric strips can be rinsed in warm water dried and reused
that's the other good thing about this stuff is that the wax disolves in warm water so if you make a mistake you can just wash it off with warm water and start again it does say to make sure that the area you apply the wax to is completely dry as water renders it ineffective
but yeah this is what it looks like http://www.boots.com/en/Veet-High-Pr...-15ml_1043488/
I like the sound of that waxing kit (stupid sideburns -.-) and now I don't feel guilty about having an expensive nude lipstick. If you want to treat yourself, I reccommend Guerlain makeup, the colours are lovely!
