Pictures below: Poppy King Lipstick in Sheer Wine
I'm having a little bit of a No.7 loving at the moment, mainly because the £5 vouchers are back out and the new summer limited edition collection is out. Despite the fact that I have been blogging about No.7 a fair amount there are only a few products I actually enjoy - the number 10 eyelashes and all the limited edition collections. This collection is from christmas time and I found it on my hunt into my cupboard along with my Gok Wan collection.
Poppy King still has an available range on the No.7 counters in Boots. Poppy King is known as the queen of lipsticks - so she has brought out a range of lipsticks, lip glosses and lip tints. Mine all came in gift sets so I also have mini mirrors and blotting papers which are cute.
The Sheer Wine lipstick isn't as dark as I would like and when you apply it, you have to put on a few coats to get a dense pigmentation. It comes out quite sheer and with a slight gloss finish. It is also pigmented with glitter which is great for a going out look. It retails at £12 at Boots which I think is over priced for how it comes out, but I did like the colour even though it wasn't what I expected.
The Pink Lipgloss (which hasn't got a colour name on it) comes out very clear, it is a non-sticky gloss but it is has a plastic-y smell/taste. It is nice for giving a boost to an original lipstick or bare lips but it isn't striking enough for me. It also retails at £11 at Boots though they no longer do my shade that I have.
Now the lip tint pencil is my favourite product from these collections but was exclusive to the christmas gifts :-( The colour comes out really rich and full, plus because it is a pencil you can shade you lips which make them look fuller. And I am all about the red lipstick. Big love for it.
