Yardley have added four new shades to their Longwear Lips line. For those of you haven’t tried them, Longwear Lips are super long lasting vitamin E-enriched lip colours.

They remind me a lot of Revlon’s originial ColorStay lippies except they’re not as drying. I mean make no mistake, they’re not the most hydrating lip colours you’ll ever use; that’s just the nature of a stay-fast formula, but they certainly aren’t going to turn your mouth into a prune the way Revlon’s did… Yardley’s formula also makes use of ‘filling sphere’s to help create the illusion of fuller-looking lips and to be honest, I didn’t notice any plumping effect, but the lippie did feel nice and comfy on my lips.Anyway, here are the new shades:

I’m more of a fuschia/red girl but wore the Brick shade the other day (it looks a little more warm on your lips) and got a compliment on it. I also liked that it lasted a few hours on my lips and even survived me eating a bowl of cereal and sipping on a glass of water.

See a colour you like? They’re in stores as we speak going for R99,95.
