Hi Guys, today I have an exciting lip swatch post for you. The products I am using are all from the Essence Long lasting Mechanical Lip liner. These are readily available in the UK in stores and online at Wilkinsons. Here.
I love lip liners, it is one of the products I really have a bit of an obsession with. As you can see from the photo believe my top lip really just fades into my skin, there is no real line and one side is a lot plumper than the other which makes it difficult when applying lipstick straight onto the lips. This is why I appreciate lip liner so much!
Continue reading if you would like to see what the colours look like on my lips. The formula is really lovely and creamy. For £1.50 you cannot really go wrong. I think there is about 10 colours in the range so there is something for everyone from nudes to reds.
Disclaimer: Please excuse the bad application and the redness around my lips. I had no foundation on as I didn't see the point when I was going to be rubbing my lips!

The first colour we are going to be having a look at is the palest of the ones I bought. This isn't one of my favourites as it is 'concealer' lips like. I think it could look great under a nude lipstick though as it does have a slight grey tinge to it. The name of the palest lip liner I bought is 08 Girl Next Door.

The next colour we have is called 05 Frappuccino, I am IN love with this one. I am all about them nude brown lips everyone and their dog has been wearing at the moment. I don't think there is anything more to say about it... just look at it. Don't say you wouldn't spend £1.50 on something that would go under all of your brown nudes PERFECTLY. Move over MAC.

07 Plum Cake is a cool greyish purple nude colour. It is very hard to describe and I don't think I have seen anything like it out there, especially at the price point of this one. I think Stone from MAC may come close but wouldn't be a match by any means. It does make me look dead but I don't mind that.

06 A Girls Dream is a burnt orange red colour, I do not often wear colours like this but it always good to have a lip liner there if I ever do want to wear it. I just don't feel like it looks good on my super pale skin.
Finally there is 02 Sweetheart which is a simple medium pink, I enjoy wearing shades like this a lot. A colour like this is perfect for spring and can really bring life to any look.
I have only worn and applied these for this post so this is not a review as I haven't worn them for any amount of time. Let me know if you would like an update.
Which is your favourite colour I have?
