Pink on the Lips of your Lover

Hello Beautiful Beauties, I hope you're all Blooming well.
Today I have got a beautiful new collection to share with you.
No.7 for Boots have launched a lovely spring collection to get you in the mood for the warmer months to come. They have named it 'Vital Brights'.
Very apt if you ask me, bright colours are really what I am after to ready me for spring and summer.

The packaging of the whole range is beautiful and has 'Vital Brights' written all over it, the flowers which adorn the paper and plastic packaging are just so pretty and so spring!
The colours chosen for the pretty flowers are perfect for spring 
(not too coral and not too pink, for me that would border more on a summer collection)

The box has a handy little sticker on the top lid with the name of the product with it's colour co-ordinating background. Very handy for if you wanted to store it in it's box standing side by side like alot of people do with their beauty products.


 The product that draw me in the most was one of the two lipsticks in this collection, 
springly named 'Blooming Pink'
I love the packaging of the lipstick, a sturdy white squared plastic casing.
It stands out so well in my handbag, makeup bag and storage box amongst my other lipsticks.

 

To me the gold casing that is revealed when removal of the lid makes it classy,
and the white outer casing makes it feel timeless.
The lipstick itself is a stong mid pink. 
It leans lilac in bullet form and has a clear blue undertone.



I feel that the lipstick translates more as a gloss on the lips rather than a lipstick,
however you can build it up to an opaque finish with two or three swipes if you wish to have a bolder shade appearance.
Blooming Pink once applied leaves a sheer pink gloss to the lips and has a slight vanilla scent which is almost undecetable once applied.




Here I am sporting 'Blooming Pink' on a lovely warm spring day yesterday :)
you can purchase this beautiful shade along with the second shade 'Blossoming Pink' and the rest of the spring range at a Boots store or online at Boots
(unfortunatley online they have the shades mixed up?!)
The lipstick retails at £10, at the moment there are lots of £5 off vouchers floating around for No.7 so if you have one of those this lipstick will be a mere £5!
Love,
Belle.x
