Oh but it took a lot of careful thought as to which colours I wanted first. I knew I would try one lipstick, and one lipgloss, and if I absolutely adored them {which I clearly do!}, I could always purchase more.
So I settled on the lipstick in Play Date, and the lipgloss in Attitude.
Let's have a look at them, shall we?
Play Date is a gorgeous coral colour, incredibly opaque, and with a creamy satin finish. If I'm being honest, I initially thought this colour was too "pastel neon" for my skin tone, and I was afraid I was parading around with the dreaded "concealer lips". However, as the day continued and it settled on my lips, and as I also trialled wearing it the next day too, I grew to love it, and now I cannot imagine not having it in high rotation.
My friend Lilit who blogs over at Makeup and Macaroons also has this colour, but sports an entirely different skin tone to me. It looks AMAZING on her, so be sure to stop by and check it out.
Attitude is a very opaque, incredibly glossy bubblegum pink. In these photos, I'm wearing it alone, with only my Body Shop clear, waxy lip liner underneath to prevent bleeding, but I have also worn it over pink lipstick, which makes the lips stand out even more. This gloss is not at all sticky, and lasts impressively long.
I am now a big fan of Dose of Colors; a big kudos to Anna for such success. The lipsticks retail for $16US and the lip glosses for $15US. You can purchase them online at www.doseofcolors.com.
What do you think of these colours?
Do you prefer lipstick or lipgloss?
