A FALL LIP COMBO #30LipsIn30

It's pretty clear from my #30LipsIn30 posts so far this month that I lend towards a nude lip. However, fall/autumn is around the corner which means it's time to get out the deeper tones - almost. This fall lipstick-gloss combo is one of my favourites when I want something a little bit deeper. It's also a little bit different.

Depraved was one of the first lipsticks I tried from MakeUp Revolution. Since they are only £1, I thought I'd be a little adventurous and went for a purple which is one of their bestsellers. It turned out that I really loved the cool-toned purple, but since it is so purple I figured it'd be easier to wear with a gloss.

If you watch beauty videos on YouTube then I have no doubt you've heard of the brand Whitening Lightning/Gerard Cosmetics. They've exploded on YouTube with backing from the likes of Jaclyn Hill and Carli Bybel - YouTube beauty heavyweights. I made an order from their site quite a few months ago (which ships internationally - and was very quick to the UK!) and this nude gloss is perfect for topping the MakeUp Revolution lipstick.

The Whitening Lightning glosses have a light in the cap, and a mirror on the side which makes them perfect for applying on the go. It might seem like a gimmick at first, but it really does come in handy - and it's definitely a conversation starter (trust me - everyone loves them!). The nude gloss has a purplely/mauve undertone which makes pairing it with a purple lipstick a perfect combination.

I loved these two together as soon as I tried it, and whenever I reach for Depraved I automatically reach for the Nude gloss too. If you don't want to make an international order, I'm sure you could find another nude gloss which would also work!
