Little Mix By Collection - Perrie Lipstick Review
I am not a fan of Little Mix, but I am a huge fan of purple lipstick. Little Mix by Collection (2000) Perrie's Lipstick had been out of stock for ages in my Superdrug. though the other day I was in luck as there was one left so I snapped it up.
I really liked the colour of the lipsticks from MUA's 1D makuep, but the packaging is way too tacky and childish for me to even contemplate buying. I think Collection have done a good job on this though, its not too obviously aimed at pre-teens.
I love the colour, its the perfect purple and I think it suits me quite well. Its a nice change from my usual choice of pink.
The formulation is great, like all Collection Lipsticks. It is pigmented and is not at all drying. I would say the finish is semi-matte.
It lasted a really good time on my lips too, around 5 hours which is perfect.
Overall I absolutely love this lipstick and am on the look out for a back up as I love it that much. At £2.99 its an absolute bargain too.

Collection Gothic Glam Lipstick in Scorned - The Perfect Lipstick for Halloween
^The colour in the bullet looks a lot darker in real life. My camera seemed to pick it up a lot more purple, and photoshop couldn't fix it^
I was browsing in Superdrug the other day and I spotted the new Gothic Glam Collection by, um, Collection.
I was on the look out for a deep plum lipstick and this is definitely deep. Its so dark, there is no way I would wear this on any other occasion other than Halloween. That being said, I have used this lipstick with a lighter purple to deepen the colour and it looked great.
The formulation is great, it lasts a good amount of time and it smells really nice. For £2.99 these are a bargain and I really want to try the deep red colour, perhaps that would be more wearable day to day.
Heres a picture of me wearing it, sorry the quality isnt great its from my iphone.

Perfect Peach: Collection 2000 Volume Sensation Lipstick in Peachy Keen
So I have been loving peach colours at the moment, and needed to find a nice peach lipstick. I spotted this one from Collection 2000 for £2.99, it seemed a lovely peach colour, and a bonus it was a volumising lipstick.
The colour I have is called Peachy Keen. It is a lovely true peach colour, not too orange or too pink. It goes on smoothly, and makes my lips feel slightly tingly, but not overly so. Its strangely quite a nice sensation.
It doesn't dry out my lips at all, unlike some other cheaper brands of lipstick I have tried.
It has a slight frosty sheen to it, but nothing too bad, I think it looks really nice. It lasts quite well, nothing amazing but lasts about 3 hours, and for the price I think that is great.
Overall I love this lipstick and will be purchasing other colours from the range.
