Next to Nothing Nudes

High end brands, such as Mac, Nars, Bobbi Brown, YSL have some Amazing nudes in their collections, but lets not forget that some little gems lie beneath the drugstore ranges.
Recently i have purchased these 4 lipsticks from Boots, Superdrug & a House Of Fraser Outlet.

From top to bottom: NYX India, Rimmel Foxy, Natural Collection Lotus & Natural Collection Apple Blossom


NYX in "India"
This Lipstick is best described as a pinky nude coral, perfect shade for summer. The consistency is really creamy and it goes on VERY pigmented. So much so that i have to be careful when applying it. This cost me about £4 in my nearest House of Fraser outlet. For any of you UK girls who want to try NYX i would search for your nearest outlet as there is a HUGGEE range in the one near me. Lipglosess, eyeshadow trio's, blushes etc...

Rimmel Volume Booster Lipstick in "102 -Foxy"
I love this one. It's definately a "my lips but better" shade. And the slight hint of pink makes it the perfect shade. Like a plumping lipgloss this has the same fuzzy feeling, i didn't notice any plumping but the shade and consistency are gorgeous. This one was around £5 i think.

Natural Collection Sheer Natural in "LotusThis lipstick is VERY dissapointing...yes it's £1.95...but you'd at least expect some sort of colour payoff? I suppose i miss-judged the "Sheer" title. Save yourself some pennies, and steer clear of the "Sheer" range in natural collection lipsticks...what poop.

Natural Collection Moisture Shine in "Apple Blossom"

Now this lipstick on the other hand...Is SO worth the money. This one is alot more creamy and much more pigmented. For £1.95 i don't think you can go wrong. I had been looking for this colour for ages, as the tester looked so pretty (a dupe for GOSH Darling i think) and there was NEVER any to buy. So eventually i found one which had been put back in the wrong place. I love this lipstick, and for the price, i can just apply it all day and not feel guilty about it running out. I'm not a huge fan of the shape of the liptick itself, but it still applies the same :)

Rimmel Moisture Renew in Nude DelightNow i've had this pottering around for a while but thought it deserved an honourable mention in this post. Love love love this one. Comparable to Mac's Creme D'nude. Is also around the £4-5 mark.

On a slight tangent, I have been watching Kandee's Youtube channel alot recently (Shes amazing you should definately check her out) and i noticed how stunningly white her teeth were, and i am so envious of people in america who can get there hands on whitening products in there local drugstores. Don't get me wrong...we have whitening treatments in ours too...but they are poop. I think i know at least 1 or 2 people who have tried everything the UK has to offer, and none with amazing results. If you want amazing glowy teeth here, you have to pay alot of moolah for it, and get it done in a surgery...so anyway, she uses Plus White, and i have heard of this before...and have just ordered some to try. I was just wandering if those of you that live in the US can reccommend this? Or maybe even one that works better?
