No7 Stay Perfect Lipstick in Glace

No7 Stay Perfect Lipstick in Glace - £9.50 here.
I present to you, the coolest lipstick I have possibly ever come across. Number one, it's purple - I have a big thing for purple, it's been my favourite colour for as long as I can remember. Number two, it has a gold metallic sheen running through it - say what!? It is so unsual, and I was surprised that such a funky and unique shade would be from none other than No7, who I (until now) thought of as quite a safe brand with run-of-the-mill lipstick shades. Glace is a real gem, as are many of the No7 shades that I swatched when choosing this one. In particular I loved a shade called Gay Geranium, which is a gorgeous bright coral that seems to be sold out in every Boots I have tried - grr!





This lipstick shade really makes me think 90's and I have been really enjoying wearing it as it's so quirky. The formula of the No7 Stay Perfect lipsticks are particularly to die for. They have a lovely semi-matte finish and can be blotted down to completely matte, however they are not drying whatsoever and are quite long-wearing too. I have another shade in this range called Classic Rose which is again, stunning and so comfortable to wear. I will definitely be investing in more of the shades in the Stay Perfect range as I am so impressed.

I was so confused when I swatched it in store, I thought it was just a matte vibrant purple (similar to MAC's Up The Amp) and was excited to swatch it on my hand. When I did so, gold glittery flecks appeared. I literally thought that someone had used it from the tube *yuck* and tried putting it on over the top of a metallic lipstick, leaving all their lipstick gunk behind on this one. But nope, I was pleasantly surprised and so amazed that I grabbed one and made bee-line for the till straight away.

 I am quite literally besotted with this lipstick, it's just the most unusual and gorgeous shade.

Have you ever tried the No7 Stay Perfect lipsticks?
