January saw the launch of Tanya Burr's lips and nails collection. There's quite a few reviews knocking about in the blogosphere but I thought I'd add a contribution and give a nod to the collection.
Tanya Burr...where to start, she seems such a genuine, enthusiastic, down to earth girl who truly appreciates her followers. It's clear to see how hard Tanya's worked to gain her army of followers, I don't do Youtube but I can appreciate the time and effort that probably goes into creating and editing content so it's nice to see hard work rewarded. When I first heard about the Tanya Burr nails and lip collection I was a little dubious, in all honesty I thought the products were going to be a teeny tiny bit gimmicky and tacky (as I find most celeb collections are) however I was 100% wrong *waves white flag*
The product packaging is sleek and expensive looking very NARS esque, fortunately though your purse need not weep all of the products are super affordable and accessible. The Tanya Burr line is stocked on Feel Unique and Superdrug. My biggest praise for the line is how universal all the shades are, they'll suit and flatter all skin tones which is really nice to see. There really is something for everyone.
In the lip glosses you have your nudes, pinks, and reds. All of the lip glosses have cute, quirky names (I prefer this too numbered products) I went for 'Aurora' (not just for the name I promise) this pinky shade is like nothing in my collection and has slowly become an everyday staple for me. The lip glosses are super pigmented, super glossy but not at all sticky. The texture is super creamy, and I'm super impressed with longevity. Okay, so no lip gloss is going to stay a full day but I applied at 10.30 and come 12 I still had faint colour from the lip gloss left on my lips which for a lip gloss in my opinion is pretty impressive. Although this looks a pretty natural colour on myself, this may appear much pinker on paler skin tones. Oh, and how could I forget this smells amazing like strawberries and cream! Super yum.
Onto nails, I picked up the shade 'Bright and early' (next on the wishlist 'Little duck') I was impressed, two coats and the colour was totally opaque. The finish is glossy, and streak free. With a top coat this lasted around 5 days chip free pretty standard with most polishes. I think this colour would be perfect in summer, and really flatters my darker skin tone.
The lip glosses retail at £6.99 and the polishes are £5.99, super affordable. Will you be trying anything from the Tanya Burr line? If you have already which shades are your favourites?
