Today i thought i'd do a Spring inspired post, as judging by the Easter eggs on shelves and daffodils blooming i would say it is fast approaching us! For me, my go to Spring lip is always a soft and quite sheer pink so i have picked 5 of my absolute favourites that just work so well!
MAC's Creme Cup - This is the perfect nude shade for me! I would call this a soft pink nude that definitely does not look like the dreaded concealer-lips. It is a cremesheen formula so it is really moisturising and has a lovely glossy finish which suits the season so well!
MAC's Lovelorn - I have so much love for this colour. It is simply the most gorgeous sheer pink colour that suits any occasion and is so subtle and elegant!
Clinique's Woppin' Watermelon - Once you get past the funny name you will find that this colour is perfect as a very subtle balm. It can be easily applied, and as the colour is very minimal you could definitely apply it with no mirror. I think this is a great product to have in your handbag!
Revlon's Strawberry Shortcake - This one is a fairly light pink that has good opacity and is very moisturising. It also has a lovely glossy finish so there is no need to apply lip gloss too!
Maybelline's Pink Shock - I love Baby Lips but i find that they don't really have the colour pigmentation that i want. However, this one definitely does! I love that it works so well at keeping your lips in great condition but also provides a lovely sheer fuschia colour that would look great throughout Spring! This one is really affordable too, so i definitely recommend checking it out if you haven't already!
Thanks for reading! Xx

They are both so nice and I think they could suit most skin tones! A trip to Mac is always fun but maybe not for my purse ;) xx
DeleteI love Woopin' Watermelon and every summer I think of buying Lovelorn but never do. Might finally pick it up this year, along with Please Me, which is another great pink for S/S. x

DeleteGreat post. I think I prefer Creme Cup as really pink shades just don't suit me which is such a shame!

DeleteI love Creme Cup, my favourite mac lipstick to wear in spring is Chatterbox! Love lorn is gorgeous too xx
ReplyDeletethechloelook.com <3
I'll have to check out chatterbox as there's always space for a few more lippies to my collection ;) xx
DeleteI am having a bit of a love hate relationship with Creme Cup at the minute, it is such a great shade, but if you lips are not in the best condition, it is the worst shade x
ReplyDeleteI have noticed that when my lips are dry but I find using a lip scrub before works well xx
DeleteCreme Cup and Lovelorn are two of my faves!!

They are such pretty shades so I can see why they are faves of yours xx
DeleteI always want to try one of the Clinique Chubby Sticks, but I feel like the colors need to pop a bit more. Not sure if that's possible though since they're lip balms. xx Izzy | http://qthee.com/
ReplyDeleteMaybe try the revlon sticks as I think they are more pigmented xx
DeleteI love pink lips! I want to try that Clinique Chubby Stick, the colour looks so pretty x
ReplyDeleteJosie’s Journal
It really is, I definitely recommend giving it a swatch at a counter :) xx
DeleteI've heard such amazing things about MAC's Creme Cup I definitely need to give it a go soon! Lovely shades for springtime lips :)

Yes lots of people seem to talk about the shade, it is a really pretty colour! :D xx
DeletePink Shock is my favorite! I'm in a mood right now where I'm either into really vibrant lip colors are really dark ones.

Maybe it's because the weather keeps changing, sometimes you feel like it's Spring and other times it's back to Autumn again :P Pink shock is definitely the most vibrant xx
DeleteI love that chubby stick, I have the same colour and it's perfect for an every day make up look. Need to buy another because it's been well loved!
ReplyDeletesheepishlyshameful.blogspot.co.uk
It is perfect for every day :) xx
