Favourite Pink Lip ♡

Up until about 6 month ago, red lipstick was the only thing I wore. Red or nothing. But since I've delved deeper into the makeup world I've found that I can pull off other colours as well as red, like purples and pinks. So, here is my favourite pink lip of the moment!


Smart Lipstick - 913 Rosewood
KIKO Cosmetics


Formula - 8/10
Colour - 8/10
Pigmentation - 9/10
Staying Power - 6/10
Packaging - 8/10
This is the KIKO Cosmetics smart lipstick in 913 Rosewood. These are definitely available in the UK but I'm not sure where else in the world (I'm sorry!!!) but I'm sure there are loads of lipsticks out there that are super similar!

This is quite a glossy lipstick (for me anyway) and I am usually strictly matte lipsticks. I love this though because the pigmentation is a-maz-ing and they are SUCH good quality for the price. KIKO is a super affordable brand and online their smart lipsticks are only £2.50 which is crazy. They are usually £3.90 which is still really really affordable.

It's also super moisturising on the lips and doesn't dry your lips out at all - which is great. Their staying power isn't amazing but pretty good for how moisturising and glossy they are. They do have a scent but I actually really like it. It sort of reminds me of spearmint sweets, but also sort of vanilla-y? It's hard to explain but its definitely not unpleasant and doesn't hang around after you've applied it.

In the photo I have paired this with the manic lip liner from Urban Decay (mentioned in my last favourite lip post) and they go really well together.

I think this lipstick is super easy to stick on and it goes with almost all makeup looks. I love it a lot and if anyone knows of any similar lipsticks then please let me know!
Thank you for reading and I'll see you soon!
