No7 Stay Perfect Lipstick - Gay Geranium

So I may have a teeny tiny obsession with buying lip colours! No matter how many shades, brands, styles or bargains I buy it never seems to be enough!
I'd seen this lipstick last week and have been umming and arrring for the past 140-odd hours weather to invest in it or not.... well clearly I choose too!
This is the Stay Perfect lipstick from No7 in the shade 15 - Gay Geranium (what a random but fabulous name, won't be forgetting it in a while!)
For me this is a pricier lipstick (I like my Barry M & Rimmel price tags) at £9.50 but with No7 make-up at the moment being buy one get one half price me and a friend decided to both get one so it made it cheaper for us both! 
It is a super bright orange with a slight subtle tinge of red. I don't actually own an orange based lipstick yet (that I can think of) - I think I've been being a bit of a wimp when it comes to brights/neons and I'm not happy with myself! The closet colour I have to this so far is the Kate Moss Rimmel lipstick in 110.
I've always loved orange and until I was around 15/16 my room was bright orange and I loved it! Earlier this year aswell my Mum's 50th birthday party was "orange" themed - this lipstick would have been perfect!

Even though this is super bright I don't think it look too OTT when it is on - it works so well with both minimal make-up for the daytime and a heavier look for a night out!
 It says it lasts 8 hours and although I haven't worn it for that long yet when I have worn it it has stayed on perfectly (and that arm swatch I have done is still not budging!)
Totally forgot to get a photo of it on my lips on my camera (doh! ... I blame the 9hour day at work) so here's one from my little friend I call Mr. iPhone - sorry the quality isn't as high and for the fact I look seriously tired! 
This would got PERFECTLY with Barry M's Gelly Nail Paint in Satsuma - they are so so similar!
I found the link to the lipstick for you pretty people right here! Let me know if you've tried any of these Lip colours - this is the first No7 one I've bought and I don't think it is going to be the last!
Have you got any fab orange lipsticks? - now I have 1 I want them all!
