Topshop Whimsical Lipstick. (£8) |
I have been putting a generous amount of the Figs & Rouge Rambling Rose lip balm ♦ on a couple of minutes before applying Topshop Whimsical lipstick and this allows the colour to glide on super easily and evenly. I then blot slightly before applying another layer of Whimsical to give a slightly more matte finish to the lips & to really get the full intensity of the colour. As the lip balm sinks into my lips, the true velvet/matte finish to the lipstick becomes more apparent without clinging to dry areas and looking patchy.
This is one of those shades very much in the same colour family as Barry M Lip Paint in 147 & Illamasqua Obey lipstick. The Barry M shade is slightly darker and more coral toned but the formula of Topshop Whimsical is so much nicer and easier to apply. If you're after a shade like Illamasqua Obey but slightly lighter then Whimsical is definitely the shade for you. Whimsical also isn't as matte as Obey is so it could be easier to work with if you have especially dry lips like I do!
Topshop make up is so affordable for the quality, and with it being Topshop, they have some beautiful on trend colours in stock all of the time. I have no qualms in saying that this lipstick is easily on par with the quality of the MAC lipsticks that I have tried, but the best part is that it's only £8! I have no doubt that I'll be going back to Topshop very soon to pick up some more shades!
Have you ever tried anything from the Topshop make up line before? If you have any recommendations please let me know in the comments because I have completely fallen in love with the range!

Thank you! :) xo
DeleteI've had this in my wishlist since I saw it on the website! Looks great on you. Must give it a go. Gutted to say that the Healthy Mix serum didn't work on my skin :(
ReplyDeleteAww that's a shame! xo

Ooh I've heard lots of lovely things about that shade! xo
DeleteAfter I saw this on your instagram I went out looking for it at my topshop! :)
ReplyDeleteSadly they didn't have any lipsticks in stock.. at all, which was really odd as they had literally everything else topshop make-up related.
It looks lovely on you! :) xo
Aww, that's super rubbish! I hope you manage to find one soon, they're lovely! xo
DeleteThis looks so pretty on you! x
ReplyDeleteThank you! xo
DeleteAh it looks gorgeous on you, Whimsical is one of the shades I've been after, when i go to topshop I may have to pick it up.
ReplyDeleteHave you tried ooh la la? I've found it comes up on my lips similar to how whimsical looks on yours. Also if you've not tried any at the moment, try a cream blusher. I have Neon Rose and Head Over Heels and I love them! xo
It's a beautiful shade! Ooh I've not tried ooh la la, I'll have to look into that one! xo
DeleteI don't think this kind of colour suits me to be honest, or else I'd snap it up! I'm really lusting after Brighton Rock :)
ReplyDeleteJayde x

DeleteI love Whimsical! I totally agree it's the perfect modern spring colour and I'm such a sucker for any of Topshop's lip products. I also really like their lip pens :)
ReplyDeleteOoh I've not tried their lip pens, will have to have a look at the shades! xo
DeleteThis is the next lipstick I'll be buying it looks gorgeous on everyone I've seen with it on. It really suits you. I bought 2 Topshop lipsticks last week in Oh La La and Brighton Rock xx

DeleteI really should indulge in something from the Topshop cosmetics line, as everyone's been raving about it for so long. I was a bit skeptical at first, but the quality must be pretty good! I'm not a lipstick kinda girl, but that shade is lovely.
ReplyDeleteThey really do have some wonderful products in the range, I'm so impressed! xo
DeleteI picked this up then put it back down when I was in Topshop last weekend! wishing I hadn't now! xx
ReplyDeleteIt's so lovely, perfect for spring & summer! xo
