My Lip Product Collection and Swatches

So, I love wearing lip products whether it be tinted lipbalm, lipstick or a gloss (only if it isn't sticky, I'm not a fan of sticky glosses. I thought I would start of my beauty/makeup posts by showing you all of my lip products. So let's get started...

I'll start with my lip balms, since I have so many lip balms, I thought I'd just show you 1 of each of the ones I could find (also I couldn't find all my lip balms since I pretty much have 1 or 2 in each of my handbags and a couple in my school bag)

  Ok, so to start with I had 3 of the Yes to Carrots Lip Butters but I only have 1 left now as I used up my mint and raspberry ones so now I only have my melon one left.
 It is just a plain clear balm. I really like this lip balm and if you would like a full review and list of flavours I would be happy to do so since I love this balm so much. : )
 Next I have the Lip Smackers, I have the ones that came in the Coca Cola tin. I don't really use these lip balms anymore since I prefer some of my other ones but these ones are handy if I run out and need a back up or something.
 These Lip balms are coloured in the tube but don't come out that shade on your lips, they appear clear on your lips but I found after swatching the fanta one (the one in the pics) on my arm it left a slight orange tint but it wouldn't be noticeable on your lips.
 Another on of my faves, my Maybelline Baby Lips. I used to have both of the ones in the Baby Lips Glow collection but just recently finished the lighter pink one but still have some of the darker one left. I also have the Baby Lips Antioxidant berry.
 Most of the original ones in NZ are clear but the Baby Lips Glow change colour on your lips and the Baby Lips Colour are coloured and available in 5 shades although I'm still looking for them.
 This Miki Lip Conditioner is relatively new to my collection. I chose the spearmint one since I love minty scents and the smell of this one isn't as nice as my old yes to carrots mint lip butter but this one smells ok I guess.
 I've only tried this one and the balm itself is a pale green (didn't show up in the photo) but doesn't leave any green tint whatsoever, I am interested to see if the bubblegum one is tinted though so I might get it at a later date.
 I love this Blistex Intensive Repair especially in the colder months when I get really badly chapped lips. It is an amazing lip balm for those of you who get badly chapped lips at any time of the year and it heals your chapped lips fast.
 As you can see, I've almost finished my pot of it (3rd one in 3 or 4 years). It is a yellowy colour in the pot but it is clear when you put it on. It produces a tingly/cold feel when you first put it on but that goes away after a little while.
Now for my Glosses which I will do swatches for after showing you them all...
First I have a trio which I got for Christmas last year, They have cute little charms on the end and are tube lip glosses in a pale pink, a pinky purple and a red.
 Now I have another lip gloss set I also got last year for Christmas and it came with 5 although  pretty much used up the other 2 so will just show you the 3 in the picture.
 I got this one recently and it is the L.A. Colors Glossin Go! Lip Gloss. I has really slim packaging and has a longish sponge type applicator. Mine is in the Colour Glam.
 This last one is an oldish one and is the Napoleon Perdis in Paris Pink. I don't use this as it is sticky and the colour looks ridiculous on me and this one has a brush applicator if you were wondering.

Lip Gloss Swatches!!!
Left to Right (Miki Charm Pale Pink, Miki Charm Pinky Purple, Miki Charm Red, Miki Mini pink, Miki Full Size purple/pink, Miki Mini Rosey Coral, L.A. Colors Glossin Go, Napoleon Perdis)
I didn't know the names for the miki ones but the lip glosses are in the order they were in the pictures if you were confused.

Now for my Lipsticks : )
 I have a Cover Girl Lip Stick in Pink Moon. It is a very sheer pale Lilac Color.
I like the colour of this lip stick and haven't seen any more quite like it.
 It is quite sparkly as you can see in the Picture Above. I don't wear this colour much because it makes my lips look quite chapped but I am trying to get into wearing it.
 Next I have the 4Me Lipstick in Shade 21, on me it looks like a pink nude.
Like my Covergirl lip stick this makes my lips look quite chapped. Is it because they are light colours??? I kind of like how you can see what colour the lipstick is without having to open it, it will come in handy if I ever get a wider variety of colours.
In the tube it looks like a pretty pinky rose shade, I wish it was a bit darker but oh well...
 Now I have the Kleancolor Double Diamond Lips. I believe it is in Love Me 365 (not sure).
 The Lipstick is a pretty bubble gum pink but I feel it doesn't suit me as much as I would like it to.
On the other end is just a clear glittery gloss.
 My Miki Lipsticks are definitely my fave because I've found they are quite build-able. You can make them bright with a few swipes over the lips or do 1 swipe and then tone it down with a bit of clear lip balm over the top.
 I have 2 of them and this one is in Runway Red. It is a really bright red and I really love how it looks.
I am hoping to get some other shades of these lipsticks also.
Here is my other Miki Lipstick but this one is in Fuschia Fun.
It is a hot pink fuchsia colour. I also love this colour as it is really bright.
 Like my Other Miki Lipstick I find that I can tone it down or make it bright and vibrant.
Here are swatches of all my lipsticks from left to right (Covergirl Pink Moon, 4me in shade 2, KleanColor Double Diamond Lips, Miki Fuschia Fun, Miki Runway Red)


So i hope you enjoyed reading about my Lip Product Collection and if you want reviews on any of these just let me know and I'll be happy to do so.
