How many lip products do you have?

After a massive clear out of my makeup collection I have 32 lip products.

What was your first ever lipstick?

I think it was a Rimmel bright red lipstick, I did not do subtle when I was younger.

What is your most worn lipstick?

This will definitely be my Clinique Different Lipstick in Sweet Honey, it is a pinky brown, nude colour. It is very much a ‘your lipstick but better’30, it’s very moisturising and I love it.

What is your favourite brand for lip products?

For high end I would say MAC and high street either Revlon or Rimmel.

What is your favourite finish?

My lips are quite dry so I prefer something that is quite moisturising which means normally avoiding a matte/satin finish and going for one with shine or cream finish.

What was the last lip product you bought?

The last little present I got myself was a MAC Lustre lipstick in the colour Lovelorn, very pretty, wearable pink, it’s not too bright and not too pale. Just lovely!

How many lip products do you have in your handbag?

I normally just carry the lipstick/gloss I am wearing that day and a lip balm to top up moisture levels so it doesn’t normally exceed 2/3 products at a time.

What lipstick do you use for a red lip?

I’d have to pick my favourite ever red lipstick, Rimmel’s Moisture Renew Lipstick in the colour Diva Red, which is a gorgeous deep blue toned red. I use one of two lip liners with it, either Topshop’s lip liner in Deception (I think) for when I want a vamp-ier deep red or with Rimmel’s lasting finish lip liner in Red Dynamite for when I want it to be a bit brighter.

How do you store your lipsticks?

I at the moment have them crammed in plastic draws which cost £1 from Poundland, cheap and cheerful.

What lip products are currently on your wishlist?

I want a YSL Rouge Volupte lipstick so much, partially for the lipstick and partially for the luxury packaging, swoon.
