Favourite Autumn Lipsticks

I can't believe we are in the second week of September already! This means that autumn is around the corner which means all the darker shades make an appearance, including my darker lipsticks too. 

With my dark features, I suit darker lipsticks really well, I'm so glad of this because they are my favourite to wear, I do wear these on summer evenings because I just can't limit them to half a year!

I love the colour of this but its just so hard to get on and make a full opaque colour with it so I like to mix it with a clear gloss to make it a smoother application. I like how this is a matte finish because I can keep it matte or make it in a shinier finish. 

This was actually the first dark lipstick I bought and I'm still in love with it, its like a shimmery dark purple but without glitter. (does that make sense??) Absolutely gorgeous colour. it feels really creamy when you put it on, I've never actually had to use a lipliner with this because theres no need to use one!

This is a cremesheen lipstick which means it has shine, I really like this as it doesn't make my lips look dry like some dark colours like this do. This is a really deep berry colour, I love it! It's really creamy and feels great. I do have to use a lipliner with this because I find it does feather quite easily. 

This is very similar to Hang Up but it has a darker wine base to it. The application for this is so easy — its just like using a really creamy lipliner. I have found this to last 5 hours without any touch ups needed, it really stains your lips and its murder to get off!
