All right, so how many of you have ever put on your lipstick, and tried to emulate a lipstick commercial that boasts that it is smudge-proof and waterproof, only to find your perfect shade on the napkin from breakfast? It cant only be me! and the thought of having to reapply, to get that perfect lip before the 10 am meeting? Forget it, I used to just go to my trusty lip balm. But, within the past week all that has changed. Guys, I am serious!
Allow me to introduce you to your new best friend
Make Up For Ever Aqua Rouge and
Make Up For Ever Aqua Lip. It's got the stay power of making it through that morning coffee, right down to the happy hour wine glass. This is truly a waterproof lip liner and lip colour! to prove it, take a look at my
Instagram Photo, while I was wearing in action.
I tried both the Aqua Lip and
Aqua Rouge are in Colour #19 Pomegranate Pink. How does this work you may ask? Magic! no in all seriousness, apply the lip liner on (I cover my whole lip) and let sit for about 5 to 10 seconds. Follow it with the Aqua Rouge (the pigment side) and apply the wand to your lip. Let the liquid set before adding the gloss, for a finished look.
One of the drawbacks is that it cannot be mixed with any other lipgloss, lipstick or liner that is not from the Aqua collection. Trust me I know, trial and error! I also found that the way to remove the pigment was to use a gentle eye makeup remover. They weren't kidding when they said it was waterproof!
I can't wait to try some of the other
Aqua Rouge colours with my Pomegranate Pink
Aqua Lip for other colour combinations. The debate is between #16 Fuschia and #18 Coral. And they are both available at Sephora (Must resist Online shopping!)
