Wedding Weekend / Shopcade & Barry M

Shopcade & Barry M Promo (and a quick note on my cousin's wedding)


A quick word on the wedding: it was beautiful. We spent the weekend just outside of London in the cutest old hotel. There was lovely sunny weather for the photographs and the rain managed to co-ordinate with the speeches—win! 
I was lucky enough to be a bridesmaid (along with my sister, cousins and other lovely ladies) and there is a photo of us below, just in case you’re interested…




Okay, part 2: my lovely goodies from Barry M. I received the Loud Mouth Lip Colours in ‘Gossip’ and ‘Chatterbox’ in the post on Thursday, but then there was the long weekend in London for my cousin’s wedding (amazing) so apologies for delays etc. I am back to writing after my mini-break!



 With a high pigmentation, vibrant colour is easy to build up and the product feels smooth on application. While packaged like a lip gloss, these are so much more. The lipstick/gloss hybrid gives the opaque colour of a lipstick, but with the ease of applying lip-gloss and a shiny finish.

                         'Gossip'

I tested the staying power on the day after the wedding, and it got through drinks after breakfast (lemonade, we aren’t that bad!) the goodbyes and the journey home. So I’m pretty impressed! By this point my lips still felt soft and moisturised by the product, and while the gloss effect had worn off, the colour was still there.

                         'Chatterbox

I would pick a favourite out of the two, but honestly, I love both. I like the more natural finish of ‘Chatterbox’ as well as the colour pop of ‘Gossip’, so I’m lucky I have the pick of both! I would recommend these if you want a quick colour fix on the go, with a few guts, a handful of staying power and all for £3.99!

PS/ excuse my bare skin...I'm giving it a break from foundation at the moment ... wish me luck and will-power!
