17 Mirror Shine-on Bee-hive lipstick - An overview

Hey every one :)
Today's post is an overview of a lipstick from the boots brand 17...






I'll be honest and say that when I first wore this on my lips I was under-whelmed. It just didn't look like much, although to be fair it was evening time and I was tired -_- haha

I don't have anything else like this colour in my collection. It feels very glossy, I feel that there would be no need for a gloss when wearing this. This shade seems to make your lips look like your lips but better (for me anyway). The packaging is quite loud, I'm not 100% but I'm pretty sure this kind of finish to the tube with scratch quite easily when thrown about. I like that it reflects the name of the finish though (Mirror Shine)... Wouldn't miss this one in your stash :D

The lipsticks from this particular finish are £4.59 which lets face it, is pretty much a steal nowadays! When looking at the Boots website, there wasn't a single bad review if you want some extra proof ;) If you want even more of a shove into getting this shade or at least one of the other shades, Barbara (The Persian Babe) adores Bee-hive ;D

I will definitely be looking for more from this brand based on how much I like this lipstick!

What do you think of 17? Do you like Bee-Hive?

Thank you for reading :)

  2. I have this lipstick too. I think it's nothing too 'wow' but it looks really pretty and it's always my 'go-to' lipstick :)

  4. I love Barbara! She made me want to try this color so badly, but sadly I live in the states & can't get it.
