I really wanted to talk more about some of my current top 5 favourites in different makeup/beauty categories and to start off with I thought i'd do my top 5 drugstore lipsticks.I actually found this to be quite difficult. When it comes to lipsticks I definitely own more higher end brands than those from Boots or Superdrug. Why that is, i'm not sure. I guess I love the luxurious-ness of higher end lipstick packaging and it's always been my little guilty pleasure that I would save my money on. Lipstick is something I know I own way too much of. I have an entire drawer dedicated to Lipsticks.

As you can see, I have included 3 standard lipstick types, one liquid lipstick and one colour boost lip crayon. I didn't know if lip crayons should have their own category on Tuesdays or if I should include it in this post, but I figured it was one of my favourites so I popped it in here. 

The liquid lipstick is a L'oreal in a beautiful fuchsia, I love these as a little alternative to an ordinary lipstick as I find they are a lot more long lasting. I also love the colour of this, although they are a little more tricky to apply, definitely not on-the-go application.

Next up are the Kate Moss for Rimmel lipsticks, by far my favourite drugstore lipstick on the shelves. I have shown one in red and one in pink as the colour range is pretty big nowadays and these two are my top picks. The red one you will have seen multiple times for over a year now on both my blog, instagram and youtube videos as i wear it ALL THE TIME. It's my staple red. I love the longevity, the consistency and the colour payoff is amazing! If you don't have a huge budget to be buying really vibrant colours and you want good quality without the high end price tag, check these out!

Next is the Bourjois Colour Boost Lip Crayon. Although the colour isn't as dramatic as a lipstick and it's in a more shiny formula, it's still very pretty and as it's more of a balmy consistency, it leaves the lips looking really fresh and hydrated. The lasting power of this one is not as long, but it's by far the easiest to apply on the go. 

Finally I have my all time favourite lipstick. My go-to for days where my face needs brightening and something that instantly lifts my mood. It's infrared from Topshop. Again Topshops lipsticks are one of my favourite picks. Not as many colour variations but still amazing! :) 

What drugstore lipsticks are your favourites? Am I missing out on any good ones?
