Blac Chyna Lashes Liquid Lipstick | First Impressions

Good evening!

Today I come to you with a very exciting first impressions post on a beauty product I have been dying to try for such a long time.

If you haven't heard of Blac Chyna, she is a beautiful model who is currently engaged to the well known Rob Kardashian and is expecting her second child with him, and not to mention she is one of Kim Kardashians BFF's ;-)

Chyna started her own eyelash line a few years back called 'Lashed' and only recently did she decide to widen her brand and create a collection of liquid lipsticks. Her liquid lipsticks caught my eye immediately however as she is in the U.S I have struggled to get my hands on one myself.
I reached to one of my favourite apps 'DEPOP', its pretty much like eBay but much easier to use and less time wasters. You don't have to bid on items either, its simple, if you like what you see, you can buy instantly using PayPal.
I found a lady who was selling her Lashed Liquid Lipstick and I was cheeky enough to ask her if she would go any lower on the price and sure enough she let me have it for just £9 including P&P, I was thrilled as she lived in the UK and could post to my UK address.
And yes, makeup on Depop can be 'used', however that's something that doesn't bother me, as long as the products are in good condition, I don't mind. You can get high end makeup on Depop for such low prices! I highly recommend this app as I have bought some bargains on their in the past that I wouldn't be able to afford if I was to pay full retail price.

Anyway, enough of me rambling on, lets get to the good part.. my first impressions!
First of all I will show you the finishing look, I got the shade 'Mink Pink' and it reminded me of the Jeffree Star Velour Liquid Lipstick in 'Doll Parts' which I also own.
Chyna's liquid lipsticks however are not a matte finish, but leave a stunning, sexy, gloss finish, whilst still being highly pigmented.



How gorgeous does that look! This shade would suit any skin tone and I reckon anyone could pull this colour off!

You get so much product for your money as the size of the packaging is double the size of a normal liquid lipstick, for example, if you compare it to the LA Splash liquid lipstick packaging you will see a big difference.

The applicator is a decent size and is easy to use and makes the application glide on smoothly without any smudging.
As I normally find with glossy lip colours whether a lip gloss or lipstick, they can be quite a sticky texture, however this liquid lipstick is light weight when on your lips and does not feel sticky whatsoever.

The only thing I feel she could do with improving on is the fact her liquid lipsticks do NOT come in a box/packaging, which to me is a bit odd, however I did buy mine second hand so the packaging wasn't a problem for me, however if I was to purchase another one brand new I would expect it to be nicely packaged as I feel these liquid lipsticks could look even more appealing in eye catching packaging.

Altogether I love this product and would consider trying more, especially as I've heard she is bringing out a matte collection soon, whether that's true or not is another story (a girl can dream).
I just wish these were sold in the UK to so it would be easier for us Brit's to get our hands on them.

Also don't forget to download Depop and see what bargains you can find ;-)

Thank you so much for reading, hope you all have a fab weekend!

Speak soon.

Kiss Cosmetics | Lip Vinyl

Happy Saturday everyone!
I have some exciting news for you all...  there is a new cosmetics brand that are mega close to launching and I am here to tell you about one of there products which will be available to purchase online from the 6th May at kisscosmetics.co.uk.
Before I get into the review, let me tell you a bit about this brand..
Kiss Cosmetics are an Essex based cosmetics brand which are due to launch their website in just 4 days time! This new brand is cruelty free which is always a bonus and they have some great products which im sure will sell out in no time, so if your a makeup lover like myself, have a read about one of their products I was lucky enough to try out before the launch!
I tried a product called Lip Vinyl, which to me is heaven in a tube, it is a liquid lipstick. I love the idea of a liquid lipstick, as there's a lot of lipsticks I've tried which can be very drying on the lips, so this product makes sure you get the high pigmented colour as well as a glossy shine. Another awesome thing about this product is that KISS Cosmetics do a lipstick range and the Lip Vinyl colour shades match their KISStick lipsticks perfectly, so you could use both of them together to create an even more bold look!
 (The RRP price from the Lip Vinyl's are £7.00).


The shade I received is 'Naked Pink'. I love this shade so much, they couldn't have sent me a better shade, I love that this Lip Vinyl is a bright pink shade but not to bright that the colour looks like that tacky 'Barbie Pink', its a classy version!

The packaging is beautiful, I am really impressed with the logo design, font and colours of the packaging, its very simple, making it look like a high quality product, which it most definitely is!

As for the product itself, I am amazed by the bright pigmented colour that shows up once applied, I wasn't very convinced before trying this Lip Vinyl that it would appear very well and would be more of a lip gloss than a lipstick, but it really does work and is perfect for anyone looking for a lip product that gives a natural finish.

The texture is a tad bit to much for me, in the sense that its a bit heavy on the lips, but it is a liquid lipstick after all, so I expected that (I guess its just the fact that I always wear matte lip colours that have no gloss to them and only need a thin layer).



This is what 'Naked Pink' looks like on the lips. As you can see my lips look very natural but with a hint of pink, which I like as it gives my lips some colour and shine.


I am so impressed with how well this shade compliments my skin tone, the paleness of my skin goes well with such a natural looking colour. This product was developed by Kiss Cosmetics to suit every skin tone, and I believe that 100% as I can certainly see this shade suiting anyone of any skin colour.

This product is so handy, due to it being so natural, it could be an everyday product that could be dressed up or down with other makeup products.

Overall I am delighted with the Lip Vinyl's and cannot wait to collect more shades!

I hope you enjoyed reading this post, and feel free to check out the Kiss Cosmetics website when it launches, the website is live at the moment but is not completed, although you could go and have a quick nosey ;-)

Thanks for reading, have a great rest of the weekend!
