This weekend I had the pleasure
of trying out one of the products from Laura Mercier’s new collection,
Arabesque, the inspiration from which came from the spirit of light
and movement.
The makeup is soft and
fresh and the shades are a blend of pinks, blues and neutrals.
Lips, cheeks and nails
look softly romantic, highlighted in subtle pinks while eyes wear a gentle
palette of semi-matte shades, with a gradation of colours from blue to blush.
I tried out this gorgeous Lip Stain in shade Mulberry.
Unlike other lip stains
which tend to be in a liquid form, this stain has the look, feel and texture of
a lip balm.
Don’t be fooled though, it
provides the full effect of a stain but with the subtle sheen and comfort of a
lip gloss or balm.
The stain is thick yet
non sticky or gloopy and glides over your lips to give you fabulous, even
coverage.
I Love this product, not
just for the seductive, deep red colour but for its nourishing properties too.
I find that my lips are
left dry and dehydrated with other lip stains, but with this product my lips
have all the long lasting colour of a stain but without the tight, dry feeling.
If you aren’t a big
lippie fan, it’s the perfect way to enjoy pigmented lips without the drying
effect of lipstick and similarly if you love lip balms but hate the way the
colour doesn’t last, this product will work great for you.
Laura Mercier’s new
Arabesque collection is available now and the Lip Stain in Mulberry retails at £16.50
