B E A U T Y .



I thought I would do a quick beauty post for everyone who has asked me what products I use for my wine coloured lips. I start by slowly outlining my lips with Estee Lauder Double Wear Lip Pencil in Wine, $38 (www.esteelauder.com.au) and then carefully filling them completely in. I then apply a light coat of Rogue Dior Lipstick in Fantastic Plum, $50 (www.dior.com) and finish off the look with a triple, yes triple coat of Revlon Classic Nail Enamel in Vixen, $13.95 (www.revlon.com.au) to give you some perfect paws too.

I love (and will now swear by) the Estee Lauder lip pencil. It really is the perfect shade of wine, which makes it so easy to add whichever shade of lipstick over the top. If you are after a more maroon/burgundy lip colour I would suggest trying a different shade of lipstick. The Dior lipstick is more of a dark purple and can be quite dark and a touch on the gothic side if you apply too much. I really fell in love with Chanel Rouge Coco Lipstick in Pairs or Venise, $32 (www.chanel.com) so perhaps try that, or have a look around to find the perfect shade for you and maybe enjoy a glass of wine too! :)

    those shoes are insane!
    i admire who can pull off those rich saturated colors for lips.
    I'm kind of shy and i usually don't go beyond the comfort zone of nude lipsticks

    Thanks so much for posting this. I went out that day and bought the lip liner - lucious shade and stays put forever. And think I've found another perfect match lippy - Chanel Rouge in 'Rivoli' no. 21, even on it's own it's a beautiful berry shade. This has now topped my makeup bag of faves and kicked ol' faithful red into second place!
