Guest Post - Alex Talks


A few months ago my gorgeous (real life) friend Alex started up her own blog - Alex Talks. With an unpredictable illness meaning I am not always fit to blog I thought it would be a great idea to have Alex do a guest post for me. I hope you all love her as much as I do and give her blog a little follow.

As a bit of a beginner to make up, and blogging, I was very shocked and happy when Maxime asked me to write a post for her blog, stating my favourite Autumn/Winter lipstick for you all, obviously I couldn't not say yes, and as soon as she asked me, I already had a lipstick in mind
Seeing as our weather has turned very autumnal now, and the leaves are on the ground, I've actually been wearing this lippy quite a bit (to my surprise!). When I bought this and got home, I thought maybe this colour was rather brave. I’m not normally one for using a lot of colour on my lips, and up until one on Maximes birthday parties, I wasn't one for lipstick, so my collection isn't vast!
However all of that being said, I completely love this now! It’s a very buildable lipstick, and you can apply it very lightly for a stained look, or blot and layer up for a deep rich look! And for a £1, who’s complaining? Plus, it being a Nivea (who I never knew did make up!), it’s really moisturising too.
My pictures do not do it justice either, the picky of the lipstick on its own, is a much truer look at the colour.
Hope you like my lipstick choice, and thank you to Maxime for inviting me to do a post!

Bella Belle?

Hello Hello
You may have noticed a few changes.
When I posted about my Fibromyalgia I had no idea I would get the sort of response I did. I was so overwhelmed by all your comments and couldn't believe how many people were in a similar situation. I considered writing more posts on my Fibro and other illnesses to help support those in a similar situation and make others aware of such illnesses. 
The Lipstick Blog  was created because of my obvious obsession with all lip products but I have slowly started mentioning other things I enjoy.

Bella Belle is actually the nickname I call my mums dog and for me it just flows off the tongue, plus Bella in Italian and Belle in French are both "Beautiful" which would make my blog "Beautiful Beautiful" 

The reason I am writing this is because I would love to know what you think, Should I stick to being "The Lipstick Blog" or continue on my new journey with "Bella Belle" 

Feel free to let me know in the comments if you want but please vote on the poll in my side bar >>>>>>>
