Vesuvio.

2010 September 28

Whilst I was in London with my friends earlier this month, we managed to spend (what felt like) the WHOLE time in Selfridge’s beauty department. I managed to grab myself some freakin’ AMAZING products! I thought I’d share my favourite with you dolls :) Recently, NARS Cosmetics launched their ‘Pure Matte Lipstick’ which is exclusive to Selfridges - but will be sold elsewhere from the 1st October! It come’s in 6 shades: Bangkok, Tashkent, Terre de Feu, Tonkin, Vesuvio & Volga. Here’s a short video of it…

I was quite hesitant at first to try these as I thought they’d just DRY my lips out, being matte and all. But the lady at the NARS counter reassured me! These lipsticks have WILD MANGO BUTTER in them which help moisturise your lips as well as leaving them soft ;)

RRP: £18

The packaging is matte & nice & small enough to fit into pretty much any clutch bag. I don’t really wear red on my lips… I’m more of a neutral or pink lips kind of girl. But, as you can tell I decided to be BRAVE & get myself a BOLD, RICH RED colour… VESUVIO to be exact ;)

It’s not SUPER MATTED - it has a little shine to it but I’m sure that’s the mango butter moisturising my lips :) I’ve gotta say, I’m LOVE with my new red lips! I was really scared to walk around in Selfridges with such bright lips but my lovely friends told me that it looked really good :) This lipstick doesn’t drag, make your lips feel dry & is also long lasting! It sure is expensive for £18 but I’ve already got Tonkin & Bangkok on my list! You can check the other colours out HERE.

P.S - I was wearing this with a NARS lip liner during my day in London & it lasted pretty well even after having a lovely meal! I am VERY impressed with this & can’t wait to get some more :) Have you tried this range of lipsticks?
