Top 3 High End Lipsticks

Chanel Rouge Coco Shine in the colour Boy is without a doubt my favourite lipstick. First of all, the packaging is lovely. It looks so expensive and elegant which I love. The colour of the lipstick is a mid tone pink with very subtle shimmer in which is a perfect every day lip colour. The formulation is very hydrating and moisturising and leave my lips with a glossy finish whilst still managing to last a long time on. My lips tend to get quite dry now and again but with this lipstick I don't even need lip balm underneath. This lipstick is available here for £23.

Mac lipstick in Hue was my first high end lipstick purchase and it has remained one of my favourite lipsticks. The packaging is black and quite compact which makes it great to have in my handbag. The colour is a pale pink nude which is really nice on the lips. It doesn't wash me out and is just the right amount of pink and nude to be flattering. The formulation is so smooth and creamy which makes it lovely to apply and the finish of this lipstick is a glaze finish. If you aren't aware, Mac lipsticks have various different finishes and this one is a glaze which means the colour is quite sheer and very glossy, however it doesn't last very long on the lips. Mac lipsticks are available here for £13.50.

Lastly is Yves Saint Laurent Rouge Volupte lipstick in 02, Sensual Silk. The packaging of this is a beautiful gold shade which looks and feels expensive and chic. The colour of Sensual Silk is a beige toned pink which is very pigmented. I feel if I use too much of this it can wash me out slightly so I apply it and then use my finger to blend it out slightly. The formulation is so incredibly creamy and soft and leaves a glossy finish to the lips. I find the staying power isn't very good though. This lipstick is available here for £22.

As you can tell, I definitely prefer wearing natural, every day shades. I do own a couple of brighter pinks and reds but these 3 are my favourite, most worn lipstick shades.
