Sorry for the hiatus but we're back now and hopefully blogging shall occur more consistently.(:
So as the title suggests, I am going to show you my top picks of the lipsticks I have been loving for the winter. I know it technically should be spring now but judging from the snow/rain we've been having, I doubt that it will brighten up that quickly. Also I have been meaning to write a post about this for a while and finally have got round to it. (Even if it's a couple months late!)
I never actually use lipsticks that often but for some reason, recently, I have been loving how it can change your look instantly. It's also perfect for those days when you're feeling lazy or don't have enough time to do your make up but still want to brighten up your look as people will generally be more focused on your lips.(:
Here's a summary on each lipstick.
Vivo Deepest Plum:
This was my first lipstick which enabled me to venture into the darker shades of lipstick. I randomly got this in Tesco whilst doing my grocery shopping. I had been lusting for the Revlon Wine Not for a while now but couldn't find it anywhere at that time. So when I swatched this colour and found it was quite similar to Wine Not but it's more on the purple side. (Sorry I'm not very good at describing lipstick colours!) It was also a steal at £1.99! It has a matte finish which I quite like but it isn't amazingly pigmented though it is definitely buildable.
Rimmel Kate Lipstick in 107:
Ahh, this was a blogger/youtuber favourite when it was first released and I could definitely see why. It's a gorgeous colour on the lips and perfect for the winter time. The price was pretty reasonable too and it was really pigmented too which was a bonus!
Revlon Wine Not:
This was another purchase that was inspired from one of my absolute favourite youtuber, Jenn Im from clothesencounters. When I saw how lovely it looked on her, I was sold. It's a gorgeous dark vampire red colour and is highly pigmented too! However this colour was quite hard to find here in the UK as I don't think the drugstores sell this colour anymore? (Correct me if I'm wrong, though?) After lusting after it for a couple of months, to my delight, I finally found a seller selling it on eBay!
Revlon Lip Butter in Berry Smoothie:
When these lip butters were first released in the UK last year, there was such a hype on it and being a sucker that I am, I was lured into the hype. I think, in total, I have about 4 in my collection. I absolutely love these though. Although this isn't really a lipstick, I think it's great for anyone who still wants a splash of colour on their lips. They're moisturising too which is definitely a good thing!

Sorry that those aren't the best swatches but I hope it gave you a general idea of the colour.(:
