I've been slightly addicted to using lip liners over the last few months or so which is strange for me really because I never used to use them before, since using them though I have noticed a huge difference in the appearance of my chosen lip of the day. A lip liner not only creates a fantastic, long lasting base for your lipsticks but it makes everything look a lot more precise and neat and stops lipsticks bleeding which can be a right pain especially with red lippies. So today I thought I'd share with you all my five favourite lip liners from the drugstore/high street!
First up is the Essence Lip Liner in 06 Satin Mauve. I honestly cant rave about the Essence Lip Liners enough, they are only £1.00 each and the quality is amazing! As the name would suggest Satin Mauve is indeed a pretty shade of dark mauve which creates the perfect base for any darker mauve/plum toned lipsticks, it's super creamy making it very easy to work with and blends like a dream without being harsh.
Then I have the NYX Slide On Lip Liner in Bedrose (£5.50). I bought Bedrose to go with my MAC Mehr Lipstick and they do really work beautifully together and the formula is insanely good too. If your looking for a good lip liner then I'd highly recommend one of the NYX pencils, Bedrose is matte but super creamy which means it applies and blends in with lipsticks like a dream, it's also waterproof which makes it super long lasting.
Next up is the Barry M Lip Liner in #15 Rose (£2.99). I wanted to pick up this shade because it's meant to be an exact dupe of MAC's Soar Lip Liner which I've been after for ages. As far as lip liners go I think Barry M done a bloody good job here, Rose is so velvety soft to apply whilst still being firm enough to create precise lines and the texture is stunning! I'm after shades 16 and 17 next which I can tell are popular shades as they are constantly sold out, I will get them in the end though he he.
Then lastly I have two lip liners from Rimmel, firstly the 1000 Kisses Lip Liner in Spice and secondly the Exaggerate Lip Liner in Eastend Snob. Spice is a great one for the more neutral lip looks and has a slightly more firm texture and doesn't have much movement, and Eastend Snob is a lot more creamy and blendable and is another dupe for MAC's Soar.
Overall I'd highly recommend these little beauties, the quality of them all is amazing and they are all so affordable yet effective!
