Gwen Stefani for Urban Decay – blush, lipstick and lip liners

Having brought you news of the Gwen Stefani for Urban Decay eyeshadow palette back in November (you can read about that here), I am pleased to say that the collection has been expanded and now includes a blush palette and a selection of lipsticks and lip liners.

The blush palette contains six shades of blush/bronzer/highlighter; Cherry, Easy, Angel, Lo-Fi, Hush and OC. Much like the eyeshadow palette the packaging is beautiful and although I haven't tried it, I have been informed that the colours are very versatile and will work well on a variety of skin tones.

Blush palette, £35

The lipsticks come in a fantastic range of colours, although they might not be for everybody as they mostly bold (with the exception of one nude) and mostly in varying shades of red. But hey, this is Gwen – what did you expect?! The lipsticks are in a variety of finishes too; I believe the nude is a sheer shimmer while several of the reds are matte. There are six lip pencils to complement the collection.

POSITIVES

• Rose wine colour 

• Glitter that gives warmth on the skin and doesn't make you look like a fairy

• Easily blendable 

• A little goes a long way 

NEGATIVES 

This colour did not suit me until I changed the colour of my hair, so I am unsure that it would be universal and suit everyone. More a winter colour than summer colour. Not necessarily a bad thing for everyone. 

We got this as a freebie from Beauty B Cosmetics. I would definitely look into purchasing and sampling other Sigma blushes. 

Already well used. 'Born To' be used everyday. Hurrah. 

The rosey wine colour is more clearly seen here and with deep coloured hair, this looks beautiful. When I had lighter hair, this was a little much.
