The Lipstick Set You Need To Buy On Autumn


It's so cold outside and the weather is horrible. I just want to snuggle in bed watching TV and eat a lot, but instead I'm behind a counter attending clients (I'm a receptionist). Very fun! Well, as work is very calm today I really want to take advantage of this precious time to write a post for you.
A couple of weeks ago I shoved my bright lipsticks into a drawer and pulled out all the dark nudes, berries, reddish browns and vampy lipsticks to start wearing them as the weather is asking for it. Since then I've been wearing some lipsticks that I had forgotten about, I rediscovered old favorites and... I fell in love with a lipstick set that is perfect for Autumn and I think everyone should buy!

Está tanto frio lá fora e o tempo está horrível. Só quero enroscar-me na minha caminha a ver televisão e a comer, mas em vez disso estou atrás de um balcão a atender clientes (sou recepcionista). Muito divertido! Enfim, como o trabalho está muito calmo hoje eu quero mesmo aproveitar este tempinho para escrever uma publicação para ti.
Há duas semanas atrás eu enfiei os meus batons de cores garridas numa gaveta e tirei para fora todos os batons nudes escuros, de cor de cereja, vermelhos acastanhados e alguns vampy para começar a utilizá-los já que o tempo está a pedir. Desde aí que tenho utilizado alguns batons que já nem me lembrava que os tinha, descobri antigos favoritos e... apaixonei-me por um kit de batons que é perfeito para o Outono e que eu acho que toda a gente deveria comprar!


The lip products that I'm talking about are these two little lip pencils that you are seeing in the photos. Let me introduce them. They came together as a set called Velvet Matte Lip Pencil Duo, by NARS. The one in the left is called Walkyrie, that is described as a burnt coral red (for me it's a reddish brown), and the one in the right is Damned, that is described as a Rich Magenta (it's totally a berry color). They are minis but not those really mini products that only can be used a few times and puff they are gone, no, these are actually decent sized minis that are going to last about six months if you wear them every single day, which us makeup addicts don't so these will last ages! The set retails for $20 which is amazing for what you get. Oh, and has Christmas is coming, this is a perfect stocking stuffer for a friend that loves makeup or just as a treat for yourself.

Os dois produtos de lábios que eu estou a falar são estes dois pequenos lápis jumbo de lábios que estás a ver nas fotografias. Deixa-me apresentá-los. Eles vieram juntos num kit que se chama Velvet Matte Lip Pencil Duo, da marca NARS. O da esquerda chamasse Walkyrie, é descrito como um vermelho coral queimado (para mim é um castanho avermelhado), e o da direita é o Damned, que é descrito como um magenta rico (é sem dúvida alguma cor de cereja). Estes lápis jumbo são de tamanho mini mas não são aqueles minis mesmo mini que só podem ser utilizados algumas vezes porque acabam depressa, não, estes são na verdade um tamanho mini decente que vão durar cerca de seis meses se utilizados todos os dias, mas nós viciadas em maquilhagem não iremos utilizar o mesmo batom todos os dias por isso estes vão durar muito tempo! O kit custa $20 (não sei se está disponível em Portugal) o que é fantástico para os produtos que contém. Ah, e como o Natal está mesmo ai à porta, este kit é perfeito para um stocking stuffer para uma amiga que adora maquilhagem ou mesmo um miminho para ti.


Now let me tell you the reasons why I'm totally obsessed with these lip pencils and why you should buy them. The main reason is the colors obviously!!! For me there's no better colors to wear on Autumn. I love my berries and reddish browns, I'm so obsessed with these two! Oh and I think they will suit most skin tones. I also LOVE the fact that these lip pencils are so easy to apply. I line my lips first with the tip of the pencil and then I fill them in with just a couple swipes. So quick and convenient! The formula is pretty nice too, when I apply the product the formula is creamy but after a minute turns into matte and both colors actually hold up pretty well until about five hours.

Agora deixa-me dizer-te o porquê de eu estar totalmente obcecada com estes lápis jumbo de lábios e porque é que tu devias comprá-los. A razão principal é as cores obviamente!!! Para mim não existem melhores cores para utilizar no Outono. Eu adoro os tons de cereja e os castanhos avermelhados, estou tão obcecada com estes dois! Ah e eu acho que eles vão favorecer a maioria dos tons de pele. Também ADORO o facto de estes lápis jumbo de lábios serem tão fáceis de aplicar. Eu faço o delineado dos meus lábios primeiro com a ponta do lápis e de seguida preencho-os com apenas duas passadelas. Tão prático e conveniente! A fórmula é muito boa também, quando eu aplico o produto a fórmula é cremosa mas após um minuto torna-se matte e ambas as cores aguentam muito bem sem desvanecer até cerca de cinco horas.


Did I convinced you that you need this set?

Consegui convencer-te que precisas deste kit?

  6. Both are such stunning colours! I have one of these in the shade Cruella and it is such a pretty dark red. My only issue is - the cap keeps on coming off, which is why I never carry these in my bag :-D Great review dear!

  30. I've always been curious about these whenever I shop online, but I still haven't managed to figure out whether they're a twist up or if you have to sharpen the pencils? Because I always break my lip pencils whenever I have to sharpen them so I don't think I'd spend so much money on these if the same were to happen to them haha

    ReplyDelete
  31. These need to be sharpen, but I think they won't break easily!

  32. I've heard so many good things about these NARS pencils but apparently New Look and Primark do good dupes for them. I love the two shades you've got

  33. I don't like Primark makeup I think the ingredients they put in their makeup are not the best for the health so it's better to spend more money but you know you have a nice quality product (although it is not cruelty free unfortunately)
