Vaseline's 2013 Limited Edition Lip Therapy - Paint The Town Red Lip Tint

Hello Lovelies,

Today is a really short post, but I just wanted to share with you something I got recently and that is Vaseline’s Paint The Town Red Lip Tint which is their 2013 Limited Edition Lip Therapy. 

I got Vaseline's 2012 Limited Edition Pink Bubbly Lip Therapy last year and loved it, so when I saw the 2013 Limited Edition one I couldn't resist trying it. I have a few of the different Vaseline Lip Therapy tins and keep them in different places, like in my bag, in my bedside table and in the bathroom, so I always have one handy, because I think they are really useful if your lips are feeling a bit dry.

This smells quite sweet and leaves your lips feeling moisturised and with a subtle red tint which I really like, although I guess a slight downside to this Lip Therapy compared to some of the others is that because it is tinted red you can’t really use it for other things, such as on dry skin etc.

This was £3.49 and will probably last me ages as these tins normally do, so I am really pleased I decided to try it.

Have you tried this?

Thanks for reading :)

MUA Power Pouts Review

Since I first heard about MUA's new Power Pouts I wanted to try them,  I love using lip stains and tints, so these really appealed to me and they are only £3 which makes them excellent value. I popped down to my local Superdrug yesterday and they had all six shades in stock. After reading some reviews I had already decided what two shades I wanted to try first, but I swatched all six on my hand to see what they were like for myself.

 Top to Bottom - Crazy in Love, Rendezvous, Runaway, Irreplacable, Justify and Brokenhearted. 

I loved them all and think I will probably end up buying more, but yesterday I stopped myself at two and bought Justify and Rendezvous.

Left - Justify. Right - Rendezvous.

I wanted to wait until today to post about these, so I could try them for a day to give you more of a review. When applied they go on smoothly and have a slight minty taste. They feel really moisturising and after applied they just feel like you are wearing a lip balm, which I really liked and the shape of the stick makes it easy to apply.

The colours look different when applied as you can see from the photos, so swatch them before you decide which ones you want.

Rendezvous

Left to Right - Bare Lips, Rendezvous first applied and Rendezvous after about half an hour.


I found while wearing Rendezvous it developed into a deeper pink colour, which I liked, but you might not if you apply this wanting a nude colour.

Justify

Left to Right - Bare Lips, Justify first applied and Justify after about half an hour.

I found while wearing Justify it also developed into a slightly deeper colour after a while. 

Both of these Power Pouts are a little deeper in colour than the photos show and the colour lasted well and when it felt like it had worn off, my lips were left tinted, which I really liked.

I recently received a Jelly Pong Pong Lip Blush in a Glossybox which I loved and I think these are quite similar in design, although the MUA Power Pouts are more sheer than the Jellp Pong Pong Lip Blush I have, and they also feel more moisturising. These also look very similar to the Clinique Chubby Sticks, but I haven't tried these so not sure how they compare, if you have I would love to hear what you think.

Overall I have to say I love these and for the price, they are an excellent bargain and a little treat that will not break the bank :)  I will definitely be getting some of the other colours and if you haven't tried these you should. 

I am becoming a fan of MUA products and the price means you can try lots of new things. I'd love to hear what your favourites are.

Thank you for reading :)
