My first Topshop makeup purchase!


Okay, so I know Topshop makeup has been around pretty much longer than I have, but as it's not somewhere I go in very often, the makeup's just kind of passed me by. Until today. I say that with a sigh as now, now I'm an addict.

How Armour appears on the lips
I was in with my friend, and as the clothes don't really interest me (no size 18's. Really?) I wandered over to the makeup to check it out and stumbled upon this little beauty. This is one of their regular lipsticks in the shade Armour, priced at a reasonable £8. It's described on the website as being rose gold in colour and I'd agree. I usually avoid frost/metallic finish lipsticks like the plague but something about this one just sang to me when I swatched it on the back of my hand so I bought it.

I usually associate frost finish lipsticks with the 80's and that horrible gritty feeling on your lips but this glides on so smoothly. It's so soft and creamy, so on the other hand, you'd think it would wear off quickly? Nope. Had it on for 3 hours and it's not moved. I've not eaten mind you, and I think after that, reapplication would be required but I wouldn't mind that.

More Topshop lippies required? Hell yeah. ANOTHER makeup brand addiction? Need it like a hole in the head, but I'm doing it for you guys! Or that's what I keep telling myself!

What's your favourite Topshop lipstick shade? Any recommendations?
