Purple is simply gorgeous. I love it! I'm slowly moving towards wearing the rainbow on my lips.. This week i've worn orange, silver, red and now purple! I have 17's (boots makeup range) 'new black' lipstick. Its amazing!
I applied the 'new black' but thought it was a bit too dark, so put a little concealer on to lighten it, and it went a lovely lilac colour!
Here are are a few swatches of the colour..
Left - new black Right - concealer
I mixed them together and got the milky purple on the left, i love it!
You can see the wore-down effects here haha, it's not the best picture, but its the best i have :)
Me and Amy :)
P.s, thanks for all the lovely followers! Keep em coming :) xxxx

I just bought an estee lauder almost black (more verging towards really really dark brown) lipstick and I'm really dubious to use it! But proenza schoulers shows looked amazing with it so I'll have to be more daring and try it out! You look beaut lady :) www.dazedyoungmess.blogspot.com/

WOAH, your really good at blogging.
Love the colour, used it on friday night, was really nice. Then my friend got stomach ache and had to put her in a bath and it came off.. lasted along time though.
You inspire me.
Keep Blogging.

Berry is great for Fall, but I love it year-round too :)
I love the color you got by mixing the two together - very pretty!
I love the sound of the outfit it sounds great and I love seeing people's natural hair! Your hair is really pretty!

i don't wear colour on my lips, because i am boring, and because i'm always terrified that it'll clash with my hair :')
i am VERY glad you read my blog and get old while you do it. if you got younger i'd be scared.
i look forward to your ten things that make me smile post :)
and hooray for geeking out!
