I originally heard about these lip lacquers from Estee from Essiebutton and have been stalking the stores to no avail. However, I was browsing ASOS and found they had them, on sale even! So I picked up a couple of them. I always grab a red (duh) so BIG BANG fits that bill with a slightly warmer deep red, and I've been desperately trying to find a pink I like on me so I got NOVA which is a nice medium blue-based pink.
I picked up a couple of the new Milani Color Statement Lipsticks at Duane Reade the other day. I've been waiting for these to come out ever since I saw the first set of them swatched. So pretty!! I limited myself to two, both of which are red OF COURSE.
Once I heard that Drew Barrymore was putting out a makeup line, I was really curious about how it would turn out. Especially knowing that it intended to be sold in drugstores, not tested on animals and made in the USA. Unfortunately the line is currently only sold in Walmart stores. Since I am in NYC where there are (thankfully) no Walmart stores, I decided to buy online. Several things were sold out, but I was able to pick up a few things that looked interesting and obviously I got a large proportion of lipsticks. I have a few first impressions and swatches.
Have you tried Laura Mercier Caviar Sticks? You should! They are creamy and longwearing. And I love them. Laura Mercier has recently(-ish) released new colors, and I really need to pick up at least the Rose Gold color that looks fabulous.
