I think I must have been living under a rock?! As I had no idea that H&M did makeup?! Literally no idea. When I think of a high street shop associated with clothing, having a range of makeup, I instantly think of Topshop, but never H&M, and oh my am I glad I discovered it!
I was gifted this lipstick from a friend, she told me her dad had been to a convention of some sort, and was given a set including a lipstick, and a nail varnish, which his daughter, my friend, kindly gave to me as she saw no use for it herself. After all, the shade of red is a vibrant one!
Before using it myself, I had a look on the H&M website, mainly to see the price, and to see any reviews. You can buy this lipstick for £7.99, which I think is very reasonable! After reading up on the reviews, I saw only positive which only made me more excited about the makeup range.
The lipstick I have is in the shade Ablaze, here is the official description from H&M; Our classic lipstick. The rich and creamy formula offers medium coverage, gliding on smoothly for full-bodied lips. With an inspiring palette of highly pigmented colours to choose from, it’s easy to match your mood and look. 3.5 g. How to use: Wear it alone, after lip primer for extra punch and staying power, or underneath a gloss to add shine.
I can only agree, the formula is so smooth and creamy, I'm known amongst my group of friends as the one who only wears matte lipstick, but I think I've now found a new love, this one leaves such a nice finish on your lips, it's not too shiny which instantly puts me off a lipstick - personally I don't like that look on me, however I've found the perfect in-between with Ablaze.
I've only used this lipstick once so far, mainly because I have so many others to choose from haha.. slight addiction there! But from what i've seen so far, I absolutely love it.
Also, can we just take a minute to appreciate the packaging?! Oh. My. In. LOVE.
Have you tried any of the makeup from H&M before? What did you think of it? Do let me know!
& if you've fallen in love with it as much as I have, you can find it
