Shanghai Suzy Lipsticks!

I love supporting local brands and I love lipsticks so it seemed to be fate when I stumbled across Shanghai Suzy.  The brand was founded in Melbourne by the lovely Joanna Wheaton who wanted to create a line of lipsticks that were cheap, but luxurious. And let me tell you she has done it perfectly. Each lipstick is package impeccably, from the matte black casing to the silver lettering there is nothing that says that this lipstick only cost $12.95. The brilliance of the whole line is that each lipstick is limited edition and a new collection is released each season with new colours that have had their inspirations drawn from the fashion industry in those months. I was lucky enough to pick up the entire Autumn collection, which by the way ladies, if you purchase the entire collection it only costs $65 for all eight lipsticks. For a lipstick that I would put on par with the likes of Mac, if not better than in some cases, they are worth every penny. 

As for the lipsticks themselves there are two different finishes to choose from; 'Matte' and 'Nourish'. Now all the lipsticks I've tried are matte so I can't give you my opinion on the nourish formula however if the matte version is anything to go by I'd say they would be worth it! I've never been the hugest fan of matte lipsticks but Shanghai Suzy has definitely won me over with their formula. Its deliciously creamy, thick and moisturising, which seems unheard of in a Matte lipstick but somehow they have managed to do just that. Another brilliant thing out Shanghai Suzy's lipsticks is the vibrancy of the colours. Every shade has been thoughtfully chosen and the entire collection is scented like grape bubblegum, I seriously have the sniff the bullet every time I go to apply it! Whoops just sniffed my hand then- damn swatches! 

And my favourite touch to the entire collection is the names,maybe I'm a little bias but Miss Amy is pretty high up there on my favourites list, having said that there isn't a shade that I don't like ;)  If you guys would like to find out a bit more about each Shanghai Suzy lipstick I'll be posting a more detailed review with swatches and all that jazz later on in the week!
