I like 'em. No wait, I love 'em! I got three of the six available shades and at €3.09, I will not feel one shred of guilt if (when) I pick more up.

Almost Real
I thought Almost Real was going to give me concealer lips when I first swatched it but once I apply a layer and smush it around on my lips, it becomes a gorgeous wearable nude that is screaming for a smoky eye to go with it. It leans slightly peachy on me which is only grand and it's not as scary as I thought it was going to be.
Show Off
Show off is a bright, in your face coraly pink shade that works beautifully with a tan. Or if you've piled the bronzer on. If you're trying to hold onto the last remnants of the summer that never was, then check this out. Fans of the statement lip will not be disappointed with this.
Make A Statement
I thought Make A Statement was going to be set aside for autumn/winter wear when I swatched it on my arm, but once applied, it became my immediate favourite. It's the perfect dusty pink shade that's completely work friendly for a scaredy cat like me who's afraid to go too wild in the makeup department during the week and wearing it, I feel like a grown up. Like Lady Mary. You can call me Lady Karen. Can you tell I've been watching the trailer for the final season of Downton over and over?
These are on stands now and if I was to pick my favourite, it'd be Make A Statement. Then I'd feel bad and pick up another couple. Sure you'd have three and change out of a tenner! #enabler
