TOP 10 / Budget Lipsticks

Earlier this week I visited Lex in London and since she's just taken up regular YouTubing we decided to film a couple of videos together. One was a haul - watch here - and having rummaged through her makeup collection I thought lipstick was the obvious next choice. I picked out some of my favourite lip products that we happened to both own.. it's a bit bizarre how much overlap there was actually and we talked through them all, why we chose them, why we wear them, why we'd recommend them.

These swatches are all over the place, they were just for the video and I decided to post them here as well so apologies that there's no order and they're not neater but hopefully you still get the jist.

LEFT TO RIGHT - Bourjois Rouge Edition Velvet in Ole Flamingo / Collection Creme Puff in Candy Floss / L'Oreal Paris Collection Exclusive Blake's Red / Revlon Matte Balm in Audacious (or Unapologetic) / Rimmel Kate Moss 107 / Maybelline Colour Drama Pencil in In With Coral / Rimmel Exaggerate Lipliner in Eastend Snob / Revlon Lip Butter in Sorbet (or Raspberry Pie) / Topshop Lipstick in Brighton Rock / Makeup Revolution Salvation Velvet Lacquer in Velvet Rebel

I have a really hard time narrowing down lipsticks so this was a great way of doing it and it's always lovely to have someone to film with too.. although since I'm used to filming solo I am the WORST for talking over people.. hopefully the more I do it the quicker I'll be to break that habit but it's worth a watch if for no other reason than to introduce yourself to Lex!
