Charlotte Tilbury Hot Lips Lipstick Collection

 Anytime I get new lip product I'm excited.... when it's Charlotte Tilbury... I hit the next level! All hail Queen Charlotte and her extreme make-up perfecetness. 

The new 'Hot Lips' collection is inspired by and in collaboration with some of the world’s most inspiring celebrity women.
These include Miranda Kerr, Salma Hayek, Kate Bosworth, Helena Bonham-Carter, Poppy Delevingne, Victoria Beckham, Kate Moss, Sienna Miller and Kim Kardashian-West to name a few! (I know ... amazing right?)

I have three gorgeous shades from this new collection and thought it was about time I shared the excitement with you all.... (Seriously someone else please tell me new lip products also get them giddy like a kid at Christmas?)

First up - Secret Salma is a natural deep rose plum which I have to say, is my personal favourite out of the three I own! 
This shade is perfect for Autumn and has recently become my most reached for lip product!
The formula to these is incredible - the lipstick glides on like butter, so smooth and soft and leaves your lips feeling so moisturised but still with a fantastic opaque colour. 
Application is perfect because of the shape, size and angle of the bullet end and can we just appreciate the detailing on the bullet - I hardly want to use it because it will get ruined!

Next we have Kate Bosworth's piece in the collection... Bosworth's Beauty. A gorgeous classic statement pink, perfect for day or night! I love this Elle Woods style pop of pink, a go-to for those days where I want to feel super girly and fun!

Last but not least... it's the queen of the world/social media/TV/life ... Kim Kardashian, with her addition Kim K.W.
This gorgeous 'vintage styled' pink nude is totally fabulous - set to make the lips appear fuller this shade is perfect for a subtle but simple bit of glam.
I love pairing this with one of my MAC lip liners to create that irresistible nude Miss. Jenner has made famous! 

See below for ... my arm... oh wait I mean the swatches...

The Hot Lips lipsticks are priced at £23 each. Yes, these are expensive - nearly £8 more than MAC's high quality range - but I honestly LOVE them.
I mean, they are worth the price for the packaging, detailing and formula alone, not to mention the amazing colour range!
Obviously these aren't something I can afford to splash out on weekly but a monthly treat - why not! I've been trying out alot of CT products recently and have completely and utterly fallen had over heels for the brand!
Do you have any CT favourites? Let me know!

Thanks so much for reading you beauties - I know A Yellow Brick Blog hasn't really been the same this year with it's reduced content but I am really trying hard to get back into the rhythm of things and making time to sit down and blog until my fingers hurt!

Tanya Burr Soft Luxe Collection - Birthday Suit Eyeshadow Palette

It has been a while since I bought new make-up.... I know hard to believe isn't it! But since moving away from the retail world and into office land I've found it a lot easier to avoid those new releases and offers.... mainly because I'm no longer the one putting them out and seeing them first!

Nevertheless there's always going to be something that catches my eye and this month it just happened to be a couple of bits from the new Tanya Burr range.

Now, I hadn't actually tried anything from Tanya Burr before, this was a first, but I've heard good things and when this new collection was released Feel Unique had put them on offer (I'm not sure if this was a mistake or not) - so I got them for a bargain prize!

I ordered 2 products from the new Soft Luxe Collection and first up, I'm going to talk about the Birthday Suit Eyeshadow Palette.

Marzipan - Toast - Cocoa Sugar - Soft Truffle

I'm a sucker for nudes and neutrals - so this palette was a no-brainer!
In gorgeous rose gold packaging this eyeshadow quad is the perfect palette for creating both a soft and a smokey eye, day - to - night sorted!
The palette comes with a cute built in heart shaped mirror and a fab 'tips' section on the back to help you work out what shade to put where. (Fab if you're not an eyeshadow expert or everyday user.)

I love that there's a mix of both shimmery shades and mattes - great for blending and again swapping your look up for something a little more glam. (Personally I love a good shimmer but know not everyone is as keen.)
I'm LOVING Marzipan for my brow bone and inner corner right now, such a pretty pearly shade!

For £6 you can't really go wrong - great for taking away and if you're looking for an easy palette for everyday use, this is a steal!

NEW Make-Up Revolution I ♥ Make-Up The Wow Stick Collection

An exciting post today! That's right I have whole NEW collection from the fabulous Make-up Revoution! 
I've mentioned this brand a few times over the last few months, I've been so impressed with everything I've tried from them so far and these are no exception, so grab a cup of tea and settle down for a review.......

Lip crayons have slowly made there way into my most worn lip products over the past year or so. At first I didn't get the hype around them but after buying product after product I have fallen hook, line and sinker for them!

So of course this collection seemed right up my make-up obsessed street.

Make-Up Revolution Super Wow Colour Stick Collection*

With a range of colours this 8 piece collection has a shade for everyone. From a pretty nude to summer brights and autumn darks, I am loving them!

Plus look how cute all the names are, I mean Sunday Girl - that's got to be a blogger dedication right? 
I love products that have pretty names, lip shades that are just numbers are so boring (Barry M take note please), I want the job of choosing names for shades!!

Now for a bit of a negative point.... the packaging isn't great and I say this for mainly just one reason. All the tubes look exactly the same when they are out of their boxes. 
There is no form of identification on the individual crayons so once out the box you literally have no idea what shade it is! The boxes are cute and I like that the they are the shades of the product but it's hard to match them back together again once you've taken them out, and to be honest I normally don't keep the boxes!

Thank you to my dog for walking past and leaving a hair behind - photo ruiner!

As you can see the range of colours is fab, I am loving Atomic - definitely going to be a holiday shade for me and Maria is the perfect Autumn/Winter colour.
These are matte crayons which I find are great for a long lasting effect, they have amazing pigmentation and gives you a bold colour for hours.

Heart Of Glass | Dreaming | Rap-ture | Atomic | Hanging On The Telephone | Sunday Girl | Call Me | Maria

Another fabulous range of lip crayons and at only £2.99 each these are a total steal! They are easy to apply and the colour really does last! I am proper chuffed with these, a big high five and thank you coming your way MUR!
