Think Pink: A Simple Summer look!

 

When it's hot outside, the last thing I want to do is spend ages on a full face of makeup for it to melt away in the heat. With that in mind, I created this look using products which over the past few months and weeks have proved themselves to be long lasting during the warm weather whilst also being quick and easy to apply.

This look is perfect for a weekend adventure, or even a trip out with friends.You can easily dress it up by smoking out the eye, and dress it down if the bright lips are too much by choosing something more subtle like a pink/nude matte lip.

The Love List - Playing with NYX 'Sweet Pink' Matte Lipstick

Okay, I think I love this NYX Sweet Pink Matte lipstick. The colour pay off is amazing.

I didn't know what to expect with these, but I did not think they would be this pigmented, easy to wear and glide on so smoothly. NYX matte lipsticks are in my eyes bang on par with MAC. I only picked up 2 shades from the Matte line, but my gosh do I wish I bought more!

As the lipstick was so vibrant, I've paired it with a nude and natural eye, soft pink blush and I've also contoured with NYX taupe.

At only £6.00 a lipstick, I think these are a bargain.

Have you tried any of the NYX Matte lipsticks? Which are your favourites?
