Beauty // Binky London Lipsticks

March 17, 2015

A little while ago I was lucky enough to review a pretty purple nail polish by Binky London – the brainchild of Made in Chelsea favourite Alexandra “Binky” Felstead. I loved the quality and colour of the product and am so excited that they’ve now expanded their collection to include lipsticks and other cosmetics too – hurrah! The Binky babes have kindly sent me three lipsticks which I am very excited to share with you today. There are 8 shades in the collection and the ones I have to try are Pout* (No.1)Bloom* (No.3) and Chilli* (No.6)

L:R – Pout, Bloom, Chilli

Pout is my favourite of the three lipsticks as I just adore a purple lip and this one is so wearable. It’s more of a violet toned pink than a true purple and has a slightly frosted finish. It reflects the light just enough that the frost is not too overpowering. It’s a great everyday colour and has a lovely creamy consistency. Pout wears quite well – a good few hours before needing reapplication and even as it fades it does so evenly, leaving lips with a pretty purple-pink stain. This is a great low maintenance colour for work or school. Big thumbs up for this one Binky!

Bloom is a frost finish peachy pink with lots of silver glitter particles in – lovely for spring! Glittery lipsticks aren’t usually my favourite to wear but I think it works well with this shade and I felt like a ballerina princess when wearing it, especially with my hair tied up in a bun! The frost and glitter actually faded fairly soon and I was left with pretty peach lips with the odd speck of sparkle here and there, so even if you’re not usually a fan of glitters, this could be a good lipstick for you! I was surprised by how pigmented the coral colour was too – one slick and you’re good to go!

Chilli is a satin finish orangey red which is one of the most wearable reds in my collection. It’s a very pretty shade which doesn’t look too bold and bright and also manages not to make my teeth look really yellow! Hurrah! Chillilasted a good 4 hours before needing to be reapplied and faded pretty evenly too. The only time I found I had a dreaded ring left around my lips was after eating a Wagamamas with a lot of noodle chomping and napkin dabbing! During the day however it wore well and left my lips with a pretty tint as it faded. The only thing I will say with this lipstick is that you definitely need to wear it with a lip liner as, like most bold colours, feathering was noticeable.

I’m so impressed with these Binky London lipsticks, for only Β£2.95 they’re a real bargain! I found them all really moisturising and I also like that they have clear panel on the lid so you can easily see which is which no matter which way up you store them. Big smiles all rounds πŸ˜€
