Favorite Pink Drugstore Lip Products

My last post kind of inspired me to dig through my stash and find all of my favorite pink lip products. It's overwhelmingly clear to me that pink is my favorite lip color. I had several different products and thought I'd swatch them all for you here.

I think pink is an easy color for my lips. My lips are already moderately pink so they take to that shade easily. It pops my grey eyes and is just the color I gravitate toward. I also think that pink is a good statement lip with a coat of black mascara and a lil tan. Easy peasy.

I am not loyal to gloss or lipstick. I can go either way, but if I had to pick a favorite out of these, it's the Revlon Just Bitten. Just out of pure laziness and the fact that it does stain and gives a pow of bright color. It also feels nice on the lips and does not have to be reapplied frequently.

 

Top 4 are:

 

NYC Lip Gloss in Fashion Ave Fuchsia
Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain in Lovesick
Avon Glazeware Lipgloss in Darling Pink
Revlon Lip Butter in Sweet Tart

 

Bottom 4 are :

Maybelline Color Sensational Lipstain in Wink of Pink
Sally Girl Lipgloss in Sassy
Revlon Matte Lipstick in Stormy Pink
Revlon Matte Lipstick in Sky Pink



Neon Nail Polishes

Neons are everywhere right now. I have a lot of neon pinks, corals, tangerine shades but have been on the hunt for a neon citrine nail polish for a while. When I was at Sally's the other night for my mermaid hair dye I saw the China Glaze shade Celtic Sun. HOLY MOLY. It's like highlighter yellow. So cool. I got it mainly for my toes. I put a coat of white nail polish down first, then did 3 coats of Celtic Sun and topped it with Seche Vite. IT'S SO BRIGHT. I didn't take a picture because, who wants to see someone else's toes, right? But trust me, it's awesome. This one is a little streakier than I normally like and I don't think it would be as bright without the white basecoat. But for a funky pedicure, it's definitely worth it.

I also grabbed this teeny bottle of Sally Girl Type A. It looks deeper online than it is in real life, it's a neon fuchsia/purple shade. Nothing deep or dark about it. They had these up by the register and it was such a pretty color I just had to grab it. I used this on my toes after my Celtic Sun pedi. These little nail polishes are suprisingly nice. It only took 2 coats, went on easily and stayed for a decent amount of time with Seche Vite as a topcoat. The only thing I don't like is the handle on the brush is so little it can be a little messy on the application, but a quick cleanup with a brush and some remover cleaned it up nicely.

 I also picked up another bottle of my all time favorite neon shade, China Glaze Shocking Pink. Again, looks darker online than it is in real life. This is electric highlighter pink on. Dries matte/satin so I always use Seche Vite on top. The downside to this polish is that it isn't long lasting on my fingers, it will basically come off my nail all in one peice after a few days, but it lasts much longer on my toes and makes feet look super tan.
