Glam Shine Diamant- Pink Carat

I blogged a few weeks ago showing you Loreals' Glam Shine Diamant lipgloss in a nudey brown colour (see here). Well I decided to pick up another colour, Shade 165 Pink Carat. I'm a sucker for pink lips so this colour really appealed to me.

Shade 165 Pink Carat

Super shiny and full of sparkle

Miserable poser

I really love the Glam Shine Diamant lipglosses. They are so soft to apply and not greasy or sticky. I really hate lip glosses that feel heavy or tacky on the lips but this is perfect. It glides on nicely with the heart shaped applicator and lasts ages. 
I really want to pick up more shades, I've got my eye on Coral Carat.

Boots only have the two shades I've shown you (nude carat and pink carat) at £7.69 each, but Direct Cosmetics sell 6 different shades (excluding pink carat) at only £2.99 each. 

Available from Boots here or from Direct Cosmetics here.

If you have tried any of the other shades please let me know, I'd love to see them.

Loreal Intense lipstick for brunettes & Glam Shine Diamant

Sorry its been a while since I posted. We are still staying at my mums so I have been quite busy all week. We are throwing a little party for Lily today to celebrate her 3rd birthday (which is the 16th). She is so excited. I thought I'd squeeze a little post in before I start cooking the food. These are my mums new purchases but I love them so much I'm going to buy for myself! 

Left- Loreal Intense lipstick in shade 371 for brunettes (excuse the mashed up end, my mum's used this religiously the past few days), right- Loreal Glam Shine Diamant in shade 170 Nude Carat.

Lipstick on the left, gloss on the right.


 I was worried from looking at the bottle that the gloss would be rather dark but to my suprise it isn't. It has such a gorgeous glittery finish and sparkles amazingly in the light. My camera couldn't pick up the sparkles very well but believe me its so pretty! I love the fact this gloss isn't sticky or greasy, it makes my lips feel soft and I don't get the urge to wipe it all off in annoyance.



Wow... I friggin love this lipstick! It is such a gorgeous coral colour and looks amazing with a tan. I can't wait to wear it in the summer.  It isn't drying and doesn't highlight any cracks (which I have plenty of at the moment!) it glides on smoothly and lasts AGES. I tried scrubbing it off to give Mr.A a kiss (I HATE getting lipstick shmushed all over my face) and it would not budge!

Glam shine Diamant lipgloss is available here for £7.99
Intense lipstick available here for £8.19

Have you tried either of these before?
