Mavala Fantastic Lip Collection

 Summer may have taken its final curtain call but that doesn’t mean you have to head to the dark side for winter, oh no.

Keep that feeling of bright summer days going throughout the winter months with Mavala’s stunning Lip Fantastic Collection.

 

Inspired by the feminine, floral colour trends of S/S 21, this collection of beautiful lip colours features a palette of floral, sparkling, cheerful tones to bring a little colour into the everyday.

Created to reflect the beauty of floral nature in all its glory, even the names of the lip shades carry reflect this affinity with nature.

There are six shades within this collection, each exquisite in their own right and each matches perfectly with the nail polishes from the Flower Magic Color Collection, allowing you to match your lips and tips!

667 Lily: Formulated with a cream finish, Lily is an elegant, luminous pink.

668 Rosa: Rosa is a beautiful pinky coral with a cream finish.

669 Marigold: A vivid, bright marigold hue with cream finish.

 

670 Wild Poppy: This intense fuchsia with red undertones is my favourite and is also in a cream finish.

671 Petunia: Petunia offers a bold, sparkling pink in a cream finish.

672 Primrose:  The only shade with a pearl finish, Primrose offers a soft, tender pale rose colour.

Regardless of the finish, each Mavala lipstick features the same lip loving formula to ensure long lasting, comfortable wear.

Enriched with deeply hydrating shea butter, soothing aloe vera and conditioning Vitamin E, the rich formula banishes dryness and softens your lips while leaving you with a wash of irresistible colour.

Silky, soft and creamy in texture, the lipsticks are almost what I would describe as a lip balm hybrid.

Providing even, precise coverage in a single application your lips are left feeling soft and nourished hour after hour.

 

Beautifully pigmented, you can enjoy the pleasure of rocking a gorgeous lip with a satiny gloss finish which will not only lift your look but also your mood.

After all, how could you possibly feel down with such a gorgeous bouquet of hues available at your fingertips.

A quick tip of mine would be after applying, to lightly blot your lips with a tissue to ensure no bleeding or slippage.

 

This won’t remove the elegant sheen but will ensure that your lipstick is less likely to transfer when you eat or drink.

Mavala’s Fantastic Lip Collection is available in pharmacies and salons now and cost £13.65 each.

Mavala Pastel Fiesta Collection

 Burst into summer with the exquisite new Pastel Fiesta Collection from Mavala.

This beautiful and elegant six piece collection is a sweet celebration of beauty and lightness, which let’s face it, is pretty much what summer is all about.

Whimsical, delicate shades sit side by side with vivid, bright colours, creating a sophisticated, muted rainbow of dreams.

Joyful and hopeful, this is a collection where I can honestly say that I love and would wear each and every shade.

Fans of understated nudes will fall in love with Biarritz (393).

Elegant and timeless, Biarritz is a soft, grey-beige.

Richly pigmented and silky in texture, you’ll need two coats to get truly even coverage but once applied, this bad boy isn’t budging.

Formulated with long-lasting hold and dazzling shine, it is a truly classic shade to compliment pretty much any look.

 

In contrast, the brightest shade within the line-up is Taormina (394).

A sweet, soft, luminous raspberry pink with a cream finish, it manages to be both vibrant and bold, yet not at all brash or offensive.

 

Perfect for showing off a tanned complexion, it is bright and radiant, capturing people’s attention with its sweet, almost bubble-gum pink hue.

On the other end of the pink spectrum we have Hamptons (322).

 

 

A soft, pale, cotton candy pink, Hamptons offers an understated elegance with its timeless feminine shade.

Offering even coverage, it is one of those must-have, staple shades in anyone’s nail polish collection.

 

Sticking with the theme of soft, candy shades we have Brighton (319).

A beautiful soft mauve, it reminds me of the colour of the purple mini eggs.

 

Creamy and rich in pigment, it easily offers an equally refined and graceful look as the pinks, but with the cutest purple twist.

Speaking of twists, I’m not normally one for blue nail polish, however Gotland (321) has kinda won me over.

Gotland is a soft blue lilac, which is almost more soft lavender in shade than blue.

Light, airy and reflective of the purity of a spring/summer sky, it sits perfectly within the collection, offering a unique, captivating shade.

Its softness and warm undertones are actually rather enchanting.

Finally we move onto Rimini (395), the only polish in the collection with an iridescent pearl finish.

Rimini is the shade that I could imagine fairy wings being.

It is a delightful pale mauve shade with just a subtle hint of luminous sparkle and sheen.

 

Dreamy and quaint, it is a universally flattering shade that would look stunning on pretty much anyone.

The Mavala Pastel Fiesta Collection is available now and each polish costs £5.50 from LookFantastic.
