Lord & Berry Makeup Review

I recently had the pleasure of trying out some Lord & Berry products for the first time, and wanted to share my thoughts and first impressions with you guys. I've had around two weeks trying each of the products, and thoroughly tested them in various situations (I drink a lot of coffee and never have time to reapply my makeup in work!), so I feel I can confidently share my thoughts now.

I don't know why I've never tried Lord & Berry before, it's just never really hit my radar until now. A lovely friend kindly gifted me with some products she thought would be perfect for me, and I was thrilled to take them on a test drive. I've been using the semi-matte red lipstick in 'Vogue', eyeliner in 'Sparkle Black', and the stardust loose eye shadow in 'Gold Black'. Maybe these choices were on a whim, but I prefer to imagine my friends think I'm very suited to smoky eyes and red lips; oooh yes, suave and sophisticated I am.

Is there anything quite like unwrapping a new lipstick, popping off the top, turning the base and revealing that beautiful colour for the first time? Just look at this beauty, it's a stunning shade of deep cherry red.

From the first smooth swipe across my lips, I knew this lipstick was just made for me. It's a semi-matte finish which means it stays in place very well, but is still full of enough moisture to make your lips feel soft and supple. I always fall for a really good red when it comes to lipsticks, and this one is no different. I feel it strikes a good balance between a daytime red and nightwear too, which is usually as hard as it sounds. This has quickly become my new staple lipstick. The formula is beautiful and I'm already looking at other shades in their range.

When I first tried out the sparkle black eyeliner my honest reaction was, 'Ooh!' - I'm easily impressed. But I think I've only ever used plain black eyeliners, so the idea of a little sparkle appealed to me greatly. 

As you can see from the photographs, this eyeliner offers a strong, deep black with delicate flecks of silver/white sparkle. I have to tell you guys, I love this! It's so pretty and powerful all at once. I've only used this for evenings and special, dressier occasions as I find it make me feel a little more 'dolled up', but you could easily rock this style daytime if you preferred. 

And finally I've been using the Gold Black eye shadow that you can see above, which is so beautiful. It really is made for a sultry smokey lid and killer cats eye. I do really love this and I'll be using it as much as possible, however; I do worry it's wasted on my eyes as I have hooded lids unfortunately. Which means you can't always see the work that goes into my eye makeup, but there we go. I'll be enjoying this anyway.
Have you tried any products from Lord & Berry before?
