NYC Smooch proof lip stain.

Lip stains are a great way of putting colour on your lips without having to reapply during the day. The trend with them at the moment is to be in a felt tip pen. I'm a lip product junkie and love grabbing new lippies whenever I see one. I've used a few lip stains before and have hated having to apply them. The nail polish like brushes are annoying and don't give an even finish so I always use a lip brush, so when I saw this one in my local Superdrug I picked up and decided to give it a try. NYC Lipstain - £3.99 superdrug I grabbed...

Rimmels Kate Moss signature lipstick collection has been hugely successful.
