Bourjois Colour Boost Crayon | Plum Russian

Hello Lovelies,

If you have read my blog for a while you know I am very partial to a nude lip and would quite rarely go for a dark (only on nights out, special occasions etc) But what with the change in seasons I thought it would be appropriate to make more of an effort when it comes to the whole bold lip and I told myself I would try and fall in love with at least one dark lip colour and wear it at least once a week. Well I did…in fact I fell in love with two! (More on the second later) 

Enter Bourjois, in my humble opinion I think Bourjois have really done well with they’re latest releases and I just love everything they have at the moment. I raved about their cream blushers and their colour boost crayons over the Summer, and when I was speaking about the Colour Boost Lip Crayons I actually mentioned that I had hoped that they would bring out some darker colours for Autumn/Winter..and I was not disappointed! As soon as I heard about the new shade Plum Russian, I was online ordering it. 

When I got my hands on it I’m not going to lie I was abit scared to actually wear it. But since I got on so well with the other colour boost shades I decided to give it a go, and I’m not sorry I did! Like the other lip crayons the formula is fabulous, it feels so moisturising on the lips and it literally just glides on. I found this particular shade to actually last longer on my lips than the other ones I’ve tried. Maybe it’s just because it’s a darker more pigmented shade and it just stayed around for longer. 

This was the perfect lip product for me to pick up to try and get me in to a darker lip for the new season because it is just so easy to wear. I don’t feel like I’m wearing a full on dark lip when I’m wearing this even though it is significantly darker than something I would normally go for. 

So that is part one of my latest dark lip loves! I’ll be posting about the other lip product I’ve been sporting lately soon. But in the meantime please leave your recommendations for any other dark lips in the comments because I think I’m on a roll now!
