Smashbox Be Legendary Triple Tone Lipstick in Sunset Ombre

Hi lovlies!

Ever wondered how beauty companies can make a lip lover (who has all the shades of lipstick you could imagine) buy more lipstick? This is how. Create 3 in 1 lipstick. Ombre lips. I mean, how can anybody resist lipstick this pretty?!

Although ombre lips isn't new thing I think Smashbox did a good job bringing back this trend. I like all the shades but loved Sunset Ombre the most.

I was a bit afraid that the application might be a bit frustrating as you need to turn the lipstick upside down to achieve ombre effect. However, I find it quite easy and I am pleased to repot that it works. The lipstick itself is quite moisturising despite being matte. Thumbs up.

In terms of lasting power it the ombre effect lasts for a couple of hours without drinking and eating, after that all colours just blend into one, which is bright blue pink (the type of pink that makes your teeth whiter).
So is it a keeper? Definitely! I want to buy more shades, can't wait to try the purple one! Love, A.x

Smashbox Be Legendary Power Pout Set

Lipstick set? Yes please! I saw it first online on Boots website and I knew it had to be mine! I am obsessed with lipsticks (as some of you may already know) so any opportunity to buy more than one - I am there! I knew they are good quality lipsticks, as always I looked as swatches online before I decided to purchase. 

Smashbox Be Legendary Power Pout Set: Audition, Famous, Stylist, Bing and Screen Queen.

The full size lipstick included in this set is called Audition (cream) and it's a lovely pinky nude - your perfect everyday nude, for sure. I know I will be using this one a lot. It's moisturising and feels nice on the lips. It's easy to apply no liner required however if you do want it to last a little bit longer I would definitely add one.

Another cream lipstick in this set is Famous. Again, it's comfortable and moisturising however it's a little bit too peachy for my skin tone. But, I am sure it will look just as nice as Audition providing it will be paired with the right lip liner :)
The other three lipsticks are matte ones: Stylist, Bing and Screen Queen. Stylist is a gorgeous pinky coral shade, Bing is tomato red and Screen Queen is wine red. All intense and very pigmented colours. They stay on for ever and don't move. Happy happy happy :)
