As a part of our ongoing campaign to celebrate beauty bloggers we are showcasing some of Lisa’s blogs… in this blog Lisa gives us a review on Beauty UK Lipstick line called Snob.

On a recent shopping trip I picked up a lipstick from the BeautyUK line in the shade ‘Snob’ – a mauve pink. I do have to say under the shop lighting it did look a bit more muted and pale, it’s definitely a bit darker and has a stronger lilac undertone than I expected and on reflection isn’t really ‘me’. The packaging is pretty minimalistic and dare I say it – cheap looking, however it’s creamy, applies smoothly to the lips and has good pigmentation. I did find it to be quite drying after an hour or two and another thing that I’m not a fan of is the strong menthol scent, I can slightly understand the smell in plumping products but not your everyday basic lipstick.

 

 

Overall it’s not terrible for £3.49 but I find the Collection 2000 lipsticks considerably better quality and less expensive, at just £2.99. I do have to say I’m 99% sure BeautyUK have raised their prices recently, I don’t really understand why although I did swatch a few powder products and they seemed better quality than I remembered.

To Try: Their blushers, especially if you’re looking for a dolly pink.
To Miss: Their lipsticks.
