Julie Hewett - Noir Collection - Red Lipstick

Here are some swatches of Julie Hewett's Noir lipstick collection for comparison - I hope it helps :)

Julie Hewett Lipstick - Rouge Noir

Julie Hewett's Lipstick 'Rouge Noir' is another striking classic red, less pink than Rouge Noir and less orange than Rouge Belle. It wears brilliantly and stays well on the lips. I've just swatched Julie Hewett's Noir Collection reds side by side so will post shortly. Very impressive shades and lovely product to wear!

Artdeco - Dita Von Teese - Art Couture Lipstick (Velvet) - Fall Favourites Collection Swatches

Here are swatches of the complete Artdeco Dita Von Teese Fall Collection lipstick range. I hope it helps those who are not able to see the colours in real life or who cannot easily access these lipsticks. I live in Australia and it is impossible to get these here. I ordered from Tender Loving Skincare and am delighted to actually have them. As you've probably noticed, I love lipstick and love talking about it.... so if you have any questions or want extra photos for comparison - just let me know ;)

Artdeco - Dita Von Teese - Art Couture Lipstick (Velvet) - 656 Black Dahlia (Fall Favourites Collection)

Here are some swatches of the Artdeco Dita Von Teese's Fall Favourites Collection - 656 Black Dahlia. It's the darkest colour. Overall I can't speak highly enough about the quality of these lipsticks, like the classics range, the fall collection is also of an incredibly high standard. They are pigment rich, long lasting and moisturing on the lips. I'd love to hear what everyone else's thoughts are?

Artdeco - Dita Von Teese - Art Couture Lipstick (Velvet) - 650 Tryst (Fall Favourites Collection)

Artdeco - Dita Von Teese - Art Couture Lipstick (Velvet) - 634 Erotique (Fall Favourites Collection)

Artdeco's Dita Von Teese Fall Favourites in 634 Erotique is a deep pink and is a really stunning colour. I wasn't sure what to expect as the bullet looked really similar to 631 Manslayer. The quality is outstanding; as are all other Artdeco Dita Von Teese lipsticks I've swatched to date.

Artdeco - Dita Von Teese - Art Couture Lipstick (Velvet) - 631 Manslayer (Fall Favourites Collection)

Artdeco - Dita Von Teese Lip Liner - 10 Dame

Artdeco - Dita Von Teese lip liner in shade 10 Dame: a deep berry red.

Artdeco - Dita Von Teese Lip Liner - 06 Vermillion

I finally got around to swatching Artdeco's Dita Von Teese lip liners! Overall they are a lovely product; pigment rich (actually a challenge to remove!), incredibly light in texture and fabulous shades. Having said that, I did find them to be on the dryer side and no match with the phenomenal Artdeco Dita Von Teese lipstick range.
