No7 Poppy King Lipgloss 'Glamour'


Hi guys! So today is another lip gloss review! After the last one I had a dig around in my make up collection and found a couple of lip glosses I'd never used before. Today is a Poppy King one from No7 at Boots.


I'm pretty sure I was bought this as a present either for Christmas or a birthday. I love the Poppy King packaging - the polka dots are super cute! It kind of reminds me of a more feminine version of the Topshop make up branding. As you can see, the shade I got was a bright pink one called 'Glamour'.



The applicator is nothing to write home about, just the regular lip gloss wand. The gloss itself is absolutely gorgeous though, much more subtle on the lip than it looks in the tube - it gives a nice deep pink colour which is quite natural and versatile. I like wearing this on hotter days when lipstick would just melt right off my lips! It can be a little bit sticky, but it doesn't dry out my lips at all so I don't mind too much.

Overall I really like this lip gloss but for £11 I had high expectations to start with! You can buy this No7 Poppy King Lipgloss in shade Glamour for £11 from Boots online HERE or in store.

Barry M Lip Gloss - 5 Bubblegum Pink


Hi guys! Today I'm posting about a lip gloss, not something I often do on Bee's Knees as I'm not much of a lip gloss person. Unlike a lot of my friends I never had a lip gloss phase as a teenager, so I feel like a bit of a beginner.


If you're a follower of Bee's Knees you'll know I'm a complete fan girl when it comes to Barry M Nail Paints, and the Lip Paints are also pretty awesome. I picked the Lip Gloss up a while ago in shade Bubblegum Pink on a hot afternoon when it seemed like madness to wear lipstick!



Bubblegum Pink is the perfect summer shade, it's so girly and pretty and easy to wear with just about everything! Obviously with lip gloss you're never going to get the same colour payoff as with a lipstick or lip stain, but this is just the right amount for a subtle day look. 

The gloss isn't too sticky and tacky on the lips, which is good because that drives me insane! You obviously need to reapply throughout the day but if the gloss does wear off it's not noticeable at all. I don't think I'll pick up any other shades because I much prefer lipsticks but this is a nice one to have in my collection, especially in the summer months!

Barry M Lip Glosses are £4.49 each available from Boots online HERE or instore.
