Lasting finish lipstick in Sweetie
I really like Rimmel lipsticks, one of my favourites is another lasting finish one in the colour 'asia' which is similar to the Kate one, sort of a dusty muted pinky colour (although the kate one here is more of a dusty peach)
I'm dissapointed in 'sweetie' though, as I already have it!!! This is what happens when a girl has too many lipsticks to keep track of... oh dear! I should be more careful next time :)
I was really excited to try these with being really fair, and reluctant to pay full price for them in Boots, I'm glad I came across them on Fragrance Direct!

This first one is a lovely pale ish pink, which looks like it will have enough pigmentation for a nice colour pay-off! It's super cute and girly, and would look nice with a light pink lip colour.
This one looks quite scary in the pan! But I'm thinking it will look nice when I've got a little bit of colour in the summer :) I think a light hand during application will be the key!
This one doesn't look to me like a blush.... but I think it's more for a hint of colour without looking too rosy. My plan is to use it as a bronzer, as being pale I find it hard to find one which doesn't look totally orange or muddy! Hopefully this will do the trick! I suppose it could be used as a contour, which I haven't tried too much myself, again being scared I'll turn out looking like I have a dirty face!
I'll probably do a review of these on their own at some point and tell you my verdict! :-D
Last but not least, the reason I went on Fragrance Direct in the first place! I was thrilled to find out they have started selling essie on there, as I do think the polishes are quite expensive. I've never been overly thrilled with the formula of essie polishes, but I adore their colour selection so I can look past that.... I find that you have to build their polishes up, and also make sure you put a top coat because they chip on me like mad! I picked these ones up because I'm looking for more 'spring' type colours... I have too many burgundy's, greens, purples etc!

The colour on the left is absolutely gorgeous, and the sort of shade I've been looking for to brighten up my spring polish collection! The other one I'm thinking will be good for work, where we're allowed to wear nude-ish colours only!

That's it for now! Please leave a comment below if you've tried any of the dainty doll range, I've heard some mixed reviews, and I don't think it's been as popular as it was anticipated! I'm looking forward to trying all my goodies out! Bye for now, Lucy xx
