BACK TO SCHOOL: Lips Of Choice



In order of lip products in previous images 
When considering a lip product suitable for school/ college days, quite a few factors come into consideration: longevity, comfort, effort etc. Most would stay within their comfort zone and opt for a simple chap stick and breaking boundaries would be a tinted lip balm, Which to be honest, I have no problem with. At the end of the day, that option is hassle free and no fuss is included. However being a lip product lover, I do often like to wear a spot of colour on the lips as I feel that it can make a look more put together and like effort has been made. Most days, I would swerve toward the 'my lips but better' shades (I know, cliché statement alert!) but on the days that I am feeling a bit on the daring side, I tend to opt for the classic red lip. So here are some options that I find fit the bill perfectly.

REVIEW: Bourjois Colour Burst Lip Crayons








 Le swatches:- 

Left- Peach on the beach 
Middle- Orange punch 
Right- Red sunrise 



Ever since the release of the Clinique chubby sticks there has been a sudden craze in lip crayons; with just about every drugstore brand creating there own version, so it was not surprising when Bourjois decided to launch their take on them. 

During my America travels I have been testing these beauties out on their wear, pigmentation and just all round comfort in the scorching heat. 

Swatching them in the store, they came across quite highly pigmented for a lip crayon which was of course a good sign and the fact that they had a supposed 10 hour wear and SPF certainly did not put me off. So of course, being a lip junkie, I had to buy more than one shade.. More like 3, but I certainly did not regret it.
