Top 5 everyday Lipsticks!

Sorry for lack of posts this weekend, I have been a very busy little bee. I thought about this post long and hard and decided I really wanted to do my top 5 everyday lipsticks. This was an easy one for me as I simply went in my handbag and pulled out the 5 lipsticks that are always in there and that I always go  between.
L to R: Rimmel Kate Moss collection in 03, M.A.C Hue, Avon Pout, M.A.C Shy Girl, Revlon Gentlemen Prefer Pink 450.

Ok so they are all pretty much nude colours (except the Revlon one), but they are all very different. 

Rimmel 03:
I am not usually a fan of Rimmel products as I find they tend to make my eyes in particular really itch, so I was slightly dubious about trying their lip products. However I swatched this in the shop and loved it. I find this lipstick is my "my lips but better" lipstick. Its a soft brown based nude and is very creamy and highly pigmented. This can go on quite thick if your not careful so I tend to pat it on my lips and I find this works brilliantly. This retails at £5.49

M.A.C Hue (Glaze):
I am not going to dwell on this one for too long as everyone goes on about it. I think the picture above shows how much I love this product, as there is hardly any left (insert your saddest face here). This is a pink based nude and is one of M.A.Cs Glaze finish lipsticks. It offers a very sheer but buildable colour on the lips and looks simply gorgeous!!! This retails at £13.50. 

Avon Pout:
This particular one is from the Limited edition 'Little Red Dress' collection (only the packaging is limited edition) but the colour is available in their permanent collection too. This lipstick really reminds me of Hue but has a bit more brown to it. It goes onto the lips beautifully and doesn't tend to sit in the cracks of the lips (a massive bonus). I really enjoy wearing this lipstick as it gives a tiny bit of colour without making me look very made up. This retails at £7.00.

M.A.C Shy Girl (Cremesheen):
Currently my favourite lipstick, this provides a beautiful glossy, sheer but strong colour. It is a peachy nude and is the newest one to my collection. I have worn this pretty much every day since getting it through the 'back to M.A.C.' scheme and simply cannot get enough of it!!! I am really enjoying wearing peach and coral colours throughout my makeup as a whole at the moment and this really compliments everything. This retails at £13.50

Revlon 'Gentlemen Prefer Pink':
This was my first Revlon lipstick and I think it is stunning!! Its a beautiful bright pink that can be worn very sheer for daytime or built up for a more dramatic evening look. This lipstick is really creamy and easy to apply and best of all it lasts on my lips really well!! YAY! This retails at £7.99

L to R: Rimmel 03, M.A.C Hue, Avon Pout, M.A.C Shy Girl., Revlon Gentlemen Prefer Pink.


I simply cannot make my mind up, which one of these is my most fave, I love them all!!!! What are your Top 5 everyday lipsticks?!
