Review: NYC lipstick in Snowcone


Hello! Today I'm going to do a review of New York Colour's lipstick in the shade 'Snowcone'. I bought this at my local drugstore (haul to be uploaded if you're interested + I'm going to review all of the products as I try them out).

NYC brand is very inexpensive, this lipstick only cost $1.77, so a really good deal if you're on a budget. I'm very impressed with how pigmented it is, the colour payoff is rather nice.

Nice little swatch for you
The shade suits me quite well (I've got quite the 'English Rose' complexion going on, so if you're pale like me this colour will suit you!)



Here is a closeup of what it looks like on the lips because it's quite hard to see:
Closeup!
The only thing that isn't great about this lipstick is the packaging.



It looks ok, however the lipstick doesn't wind down all the way, so every time I put the lid back on I'm worried I'm going to break the lipstick!

Also it's important to note that the lipstick isn't that moisturizing, however it didn't dry my lips out too much either!

All in all I'm very impressed with this lipstick, and I will be buying more NYC lipsticks in the future.

4/5

I should be doing my second music monday later (at this rate it might end up being a music tuesday!)

Love,

Music Monday (A bit late)

So I've started doing a thing on my channel (see it here!) which is Music Monday! Basically every Monday I'm going to try to make a video to do with songs I've been listening to/themed days of songs that I like (if that made sense).

You'll understand once I carry on :)

So yes, exams are over, and I've got way more time to post and upload videos :D

Music monday #1 (13 May)
My favourite songs for the week this week are:

Passenger - Let Her Go.
This song is so relaxing, I listen to it whenever I'm stressed and it just chills me out :) And his voice is absolutely incredible.

Stutter - Marianas Trench
I love this song, it's so catchy and up-tempo, and it is fun to sing a long to :)

Undercover Martyn -Two Door Cinema Club
My friend got me OBSESSED with this song *update, she's now listened to it 300+ times!

Pompeii - Bastille
Bastille are a really good band, with songs that have really nice lyrics and good meaning behind their songs. If you haven't, you should DEFINITELY check them out, you won't regret it!

Red Hands - Walk Off The Earth
Red Hands is another calm song, relaxing, but still fun and nice to sing along with.

Carry On - Fun
Everyone loves a bit of Fun don't they? :P

Inner Ninja - Classified

This song just makes me smile :) *get out of here, you're a ninja!* haha

So that's it for this week's Music Monday, sorry it's so late!
I'm also going to film a mini haul soon, so expect to see that too! :)
Lots of love,

So SORRY!!!

I'm really sorry I haven't been blogging much, I have had so much on!!!

I've had my first exam today and they go on for the next two weeks (until the 17th) so I'm not going to be blogging as much or making many videos.... D: BUT after that I'll be free!

However....
I'm not going to have a laptop after about the 10th of June, because we're renting it from my school and I'm leaving..

But I'll still have my IPod, and hopefully at some point I can get a new laptop :)

So yeah, just an update for you all.

Love always,
