New Seventeen Mega Matte Lipsticks & Cream Bronzer






Hello Lovely!


As a self obsessed makeup geek. I love nothing more than finding little hidden gems in the drugstore. By drugstore, I mean Boots, Superdrug etc. (UK). I am pretty new to Seventeen cosmetics and I was uber excited to try out some of their products. In today's post I will be giving my low down on two of the new 'Mega Matte' lipsticks and also the 'Instant Glow Cream Bronzer'.



I must confess I was a teeny bit apprehensive when it came to using cream based products. My past experiences with cream products haven't been the best so to speak.... A Patchy makeup job springs to mind. However, I am coming round it and I am now using cream products more frequently as I do like how fresh and hydrated the skin looks when applied.

My top tip: Apply cream based products after foundation and THEN apply powder based products. If you apply powder first then add cream bronzers and blushes then yes Patchy McGee you will be...from my experience anyways.



This Cream Bronzer is really lovely! 
 Its super easy to blend and its a perfect product for contouring and for an all over sun kissed look.  Its also great to use on the go! No brushes needed, Apply this product with your fingers and blend onto the cheeks for a golden glow and before you know it your done!
No streaks, no dodgy muddy patches, No more stress!!



Matte lipsticks are everywhere right now and I was so excited when I received the new mega matte lipsticks from the lovely ladies from Boots at Seventeen . I am a fan of matte lipsticks however as I suffer from dry lips, this type of finish usually doesn't work out well for me. Usually, if I apply a matte lip then half way through the day I always want to take it off.

However these lipsticks are very creamy in texture and apply very easily. They dry quickly but they didn't feel like they were drying out my lips and I could comfortably wear it all day long. 




'Pinking out loud' is a cool toned light pink shade and I am loving the Ed Sheeran reference!
 But unfortunately this shade is too light for my skin tone and It just doesn't suit me at all. I do have slightly fair skin however I felt this this shade wore me out. I would also say that when I applied this onto the lips, it did exaggerate any dry patches that I did already have and it did put me off a little. 


But all is not lost, because I have fallen hard for this lipstick! 
'No Corals' is a gorgeous pinky red shade.....It's coral paige! . It is highly pigmented and I never feel the need to re apply! To add, I think this would be the perfect shade to take you straight through to winter and I can see myself carrying this in my handbag over the next few months. Its a cracker! 



Where can I buy this and How much are these products? 

 Seventeen products are available to buy from Boots


Cream Bronzer : £4.99
Mega Matte Lipsticks : £4.49


Lots of Love
