    Barry M Loud Mouth Liquid Lip Colour Review

    When it comes to lip shades, a girl can never have too many reds right? No, I didn’t think so and so my latest addition to my collection is this Loud Mouth Liquid Lip Colour in shade Dive from Barry M. It’s been a while since I bought anything from Barry M but as soon as I saw these intriguing liquid lip colours I knew I had to give one a go.

    As you can see, this lip colour is a vibrant deep red and the colour comes out as intense as it looks in the tube. It’s very glossy and more slippery as opposed to sticky on the lips. It glides onto the lips easily but you do have to be careful when it comes to perfecting the lip line and I suggest applying a lip liner first.

    I think the colour looks great on and I love the intense shine. However, this isn’t a lip colour you can apply once and leave on for the rest of the day. Oh no, this stuff is high maintenance. I wore it recently on a night out and after merrily and obliviously dancing away for some time, I finally went to the ladies and immediately spotted my lips in the mirror and the major lip line bleed, which did not look attractive! So be warned, if you’re going to brave it with this bold red, regular liner top ups are required when you’re wearing this one. It certainly is not smudge proof, so I would not suggest wearing it when you’re going for food, less it might end up looking like you’ve actually chewed your beef burger straight from the carcass, just a heads up.

    Illamasqua Intense Lipgloss - Succubus blood red
    This is a lipgloss I’ve had for a while and as I keep getting questions on my lip colours I thought I’d gradually begin doing posts on some of my favourites, starting with this Intense Lipgloss from Illamasqua.

    This isn’t a lipgloss I wear often, as I’m more of a matte lady myself, however when I really want a show stopper, this is the lip paint I pull out of the bag, Illamasqua Intense Lipgloss in shade Succubus. It glides on easily (although I would recommend a liner first if you don’t have a steady hand) and just like the label says, it’s an intense shade so it comes out as vibrant as it looks.

    A downside of this product (as with most glosses) is the dreaded bleeding lip line. I’m not referring to actual blood but the fact that this is certainly not smudge proof, so it can be quite a high maintenance one to wear. Regardless of the necessary routinely mirror checks, I love this gloss and like all Illamasqua lipglosses it smells good enough to eat too (but of course don’t do that).

    You can see how vibrant this lipgloss comes out as in the images I’ve taken below, Succubus is the only thing I have on my lips.
