NYC Ultra Last Lipstick

Alohaaa (feeling like Louise after reading her blog all day haha!)! First and foremost I'd like to apologize for being absent for the past week :( Technical difficulties and lack of things to post combined m'fraid. But now I'm back so yayyyy

On Saturday I decided to go into Superdrug, because as opposed to Boots where the staff is always staring at you as if you're about to steal all the products and smash all the testers... I can shop in a relaxed and peaceful way. Also, the aisles are much wider in Superdrug and people aren't tripping over each other. 


That was when I found these little gems. 

NYC Ultra Last Lipsticks in Air Kiss (left) and Blue Rose (right). I initially went looking at the NYC rail (I think that's what it's called?) because Annaskiwibeauty off of YouTube wore Blue Rose in one of her videos and I loved it so much I had to ask her what it was. Anna is positively lovely. When I used to do YouTube we would inbox several times a week and give each other shout outs in our videos. She is so kind and sweet. Thanks Anna!

Firstly I'm going to talk about the consistency of these lippies: They are sooooo unbelievably creamy and moisturising! (Although I would recommend a lip balm before to prep the lips anyway haha)
The colours are incredibly pigmented. 'Air Kiss' (right) is a muted red with pinkish undertones and 'Blue Rose' (right) is a bright/deep pink with blue undertones. Both look gorgeous and can be worn thinly across the lips for a school look, layered up for going out or as you like. They are so versatile.

This little photograph is just to focus on the simplicity yet sophisticated packaging. In my opinion anyway. Matte black with silver NYC written on one side and a clear cover. This makes it easier to grab the colour you want rather than sorting through your whole lipstick section.

Swatches

I really recommend you going down to an NYC stall (I believe they only stock in Superdrug) and purchasing a couple of these lipsticks. They retail for £1.49 and currently there is a 3 for 2 sale on all NYC products! The nail polish you can see on my swatch is NYC Eastern Village.


Thank-you for reading and please leave a comment on any NYC products that you have tried!
