Le Rouge Givenchy Lipstick Review

Hi all! Happy Spring time! Although it is still extremely cold and windy over here, but a lot of places are starting to warm up for sure!

I tend to wear brighter clothing and brighter lip colours as the weather turns warmer. Vibrant colours make me feel happier :) I was lucky enough to receive some products from Givenchy for the season and I would like to share about them with you guys!

Givenchy Le Rouge

The lipstick came in this cute tiny paper bag with 2 mini keychains! I loveeee them! The lipstick keychain is now hanging out with my house keys. :)

Mini lipstick!

Le Rouge in 301 Magnolia Organza

There are 17 colours in this collection ranging from neutrals to brights. The colour that I have here is a bright fuchsia pink and looks absolutely amazing with all skin tones!

The lipstick is packaged in luxurious and soft black leather, a material that made an iconic presence in Givenchy fashion shows.

The lipstick is extremely pigmented and gives a creamy finish on your lips. Even if you don't have the habit of lining your lips, it does not bleed. It wears well, although not extremely long lasting, but you will only need to touch up once during lunch time for a full day of wear.

The picture definitely does not do the lipstick any justice! It is much more vibrant in person that it looks on the picture. 

They are sold exclusively at Sephora, so do drop by and try them on! They really do feel amazing on the lips.

Thank you for always supporting my blog! :D

June Favourites / Summer Essentials

What a hot day in Toronto today! I thought there was no better day to share my June/ Summer make up favourites. Items listed below are not in any specific order.

1.

Peach Bellini 3 wick Candle from Bath & Body Works

This candle smells absolutely divine! It's sweet but not too excessive so the husband likes it too :)

2.

 

Beauty Blender Makeup Sponge

I actually got this from Sephora at a higher price (ouch!). Check the link underneath the picture to get it at a better deal. I love this because it's meant to be use wet. Any foundation or concealer that are too cakey or heavy can be easily blended using this sponge. It creates a flawless finish and makes your foundation look extremely natural, like a 2nd skin!

3. 

Beauty Rush Dazzle Shine Lipgloss from Victoria's Secret in Dazzling Citrus

Not sticky and extremely shiny! I have rather dry lips and this totally hides it!

4. 

Urban Decay All Nighter Long Lasting Makeup Setting Spray

This product is absolutely AMAZINNNNG! I used this for my wedding ceremony in Malaysia (30C+; 99% humidity) and my make up still looks the same after over 10 hours of wear! I kid you not, I was sweating like mad and none of my make up moved! I did not even touch up! I will do a wedding make up tutorial soon.

5.

Physicians Formula Shimmer Strips Custom Eye Enhancing Eyeliner Trio in Nude Eyes (Black)

My favourite black pencil liner so far. Does not smear, smudge or transfer on my oily lids. Very reliable!

6. 

Maybelline Falsies Volume Black Drama Mascara

I picked up the non waterproof formula because I hate scrubbing off my eyes trying to remove my eye makeup. The formula is not too dry or wet. Your lashes will looks thick with a lot of  volume after about 3 quick coats. Favourite drugstore mascara so far!

7. 

NYC Bronzer in Sunny

Initially I thought this colour was way too light for me but I was wrong. It's very affordable and one of the best matte bronzer out there in the market that does not look orangey if piled on. Perfect for contouring!

8.

ZA 2 Way Brightening Powder

I only use it 1 way, which is the dry way. I apply it with my ELF Flat Top studio brush for full coverage. I like using powder foundation when the weather is hot.

9.

Essie Nail Polish in Lights

Loving this neon pink nail polish for summer. It is quite long lasting and does not chip. Mine chipped after about 5 days without top and base coat.

That's all for now! See you tomorrow for more beauty posts. In the meantime, stay cool! And for my friends in Australia, stay warm!
