How about a long wearing matte cherry red lip choice for under a fiver?

I have here the Penneys (or Primark) red lip liner in number 05.

Penneys do 4 shades in these P.S Love lip liners. I own them all and think they’re really great great for the price. They are pigmented, easy too apply and the won’t drag the bejesus outta your lips. Using a liner under your lipstick means you can even out your lip line, over draw slightly if you want and it will help any lip product you add on top last longer.

05 is a true red colour, so of course you could easily get away with this on it’s own and it will only set you back €1.50. #bargain 🙂

I wanted to pink it up a little, so I added ‘Cherry Picking’ by Wet n Wild into the mix.

I adore these Wet n Wild Megalast matte lippies. I swatched and reviewed a whole slew of them here, including ‘Cherry Picking’. They cost €2.49 a pop, which is really brilliant value. They come in so many colours too, so there’s plenty to choose from. Wet n Wild is really handy to get hold of now in Ireland, with Penneys and so many pharmacies stocking the brand nationwide.

‘Cherry Picking’ is a red toned pink. And again this is a gorgeous shade all by itself.

You can see it here swatched beside the lip liner, it’s on the right hand side.

When these are added together, I think they give the most beautiful pinky red shade, that would flatter so many skin shades. Cherry Picking although matte like the liner, it has a more comfortable formula. I am loving this combo and I think it will definitely be a go to for me over the Christmas period 🙂

I love a true red lip, it is so timeless and can dress up any look, but sometimes it’s nice to change things up even a little.

And the best news, both of these lip products together will cost you €3.99. None of us can argue with that can we?

Let me know what you think?

Welcome back to Beautynook and if it’s your first time here thanks for stopping by 🙂

The Wet n Wild Megalast lipsticks are awesome, simple as that. They’ve brought out a whole new range of matte colours here in Ireland. I picked up 8 of them to swatch and show you. At €2.99 a pop you get so much bang out of these lipsticks it’s pretty impressive. Some of these colours wouldn’t be my go to lip choices but I am hoping there is a colour in the eight that suits everyone who comes by to read. Although I think there will be more pictures than words in this blogpost 🙂

First up we have ‘Dollhouse Pink’

Second is ‘Don’t Blink Pink’.

Third up is ‘Pinkerbell’

Up fourth is ‘Purty Persimmon’.

Fifth is ‘Cherry Picking’.

Sixth in my Wet n Wild Megalast lipstick shopping spree is ‘Spiked With Rum’.

Number seven in the list is ‘Ravin’ Raisin’.

Then last but not least Megalast lippie number eight in my countdown ‘Vamp It Up’ The darkest of them all.

Yep my lips are a bit sore now 🙂

There are even more new shades on Wet n Wild Stands now. These are just the ones I picked up in my local Dunnes.

I can honestly say nothing bad about the Megalast lipsticks. And you can see for yourself how pigmented they are! If you walk by a Wet n Wild Stand, have a swatch and see for yourself.

So what do you think? What colours call out to you? I think my favourite are ‘Cherry Picking’ ‘Spiked With Rum’ and ‘Don’t Blink Pink’.

Thanks for reading and I hope this helps a bit if you’re a tad undecided 🙂
