You want a nicky minaj type pink?
You're thinking Pepto bismol floats your boat?
You always harbor barbie type longings?

Well rol up for the beauty that is Nars Schiap. As seen in the press (;)) like everywhere this is a punk that could possibly be seen from space.
Wave farewell to your dullo nudes. This is just OSSOM.

A bit of Benefit boi - ing will see those right

cybbo · 11/04/2012 20:27

I feel like a plonker in bright lippy- too high maintenance for me so hats off to those who can wear

I end up with a bright line and nowt within

coffeeinbed · 11/04/2012 20:29

Do you use pencil to line? That's bad you see.

PerryCombover · 11/04/2012 20:31

Cyb you have to get used to it
At first it wears you and you are uncomfortably dragged around behind it

cybbo · 11/04/2012 20:32

Nah can't be 'arsed'

Dont think it would suit me, I need more round me eyes and dont want to look like a tranny

coffeeinbed · 11/04/2012 20:33

I find a good red easier to wear than a nude.

cybbo · 11/04/2012 20:35

Oh, I dont. Red is hard work

PerryCombover · 11/04/2012 20:36

I either do tranny smokey black eyes and nude lip (ha)
Or flicks and ruby woo

coffeeinbed · 11/04/2012 20:38

Will look up Ruby Woo as well.
Cyb, Nars Gypsy is perfectly safe, wearable and even a bit boring.
Give it a try.

Pinot · 11/04/2012 20:39

ooh ruby woo is the mutts nuts.

Burberry Rosewood is better than Bobbi Brown Nude for a day lip. And delish creamy on the old smacker too.

cybbo · 11/04/2012 20:39

Ah yes thats v similar to my fave lippy of all time, No 7 chic

Mrsrobertduvall · 11/04/2012 20:39

Not my colour.
I favour tomato-ey colours and strong corals.
But not much in the eye dept (understands cyb's desire not to look like a tranny...even worse when you're 6 foot)

coffeeinbed · 11/04/2012 20:46

And no blush.
Some light bronzer, but no colour.
I don't need much on the eyes and am rubbish at eye stuff

Pinot · 11/04/2012 20:47

I have a new love of coral for spring/summer cheeks. Very youthful. Mascara, coral cheeks and lipbalm = super pretty summer face.

i have lately fallen in love with smashbox legendary line and have three already, they're fab and last ages

miaowmix · 11/04/2012 21:00

I am currently loving my Chanel Monte Carlo lipstick, which is like a watered down version of a bright orangey-pink for those who can't quite handle a bright fuchsia pair of lips www.handbag.com/beauty/makeup/50-new-spring-beauty-products-2011. Gorgeous texture too - that Nars one looks so dry.

Big fan of bright lips, nothing on eyes in spring/summer, especially with a light tan.

PerryCombover · 11/04/2012 21:02

I look like Phil Mitchell with nothing on my eyes

miaowmix · 11/04/2012 21:07

when I say nothing I mean mascara, of course.
My lips are my best feature so I am lipstick obsessed

Pinot · 11/04/2012 21:12

I see your Phil Mitchell and raise you Phil Mitchell in a ginger wig.

have you discovered the power of curling lashes then a layer of waterproof mascara, then your normal mascara? ACE. The w'proof isn't water based like normal stuff so doesn't make the curl droop. Keeps lashes curled all day long.

Things like that make me happy.

PerryCombover · 11/04/2012 21:18

Pinot, I'm a ginge too now
Will try the mascara trick, ta

coffeeinbed · 11/04/2012 21:20

You make me want to try a lash curler.

BelleDameSansMerci · 11/04/2012 22:12

Don't bother with a heated curler - get a metal one and gently heat with a hairdryer. Test for heat before application!

I just ordered the Schiap lipstick. I am auburn (at the moment). It may not be pretty Grin

MissFoodie · 11/04/2012 22:51

lisaro lol
i dont wear lipstick, v envious of those that do, esp this kind of shade AND get away with it

cybbo · 11/04/2012 23:02
