Budget Product Swap

Okay so we'll all like to be able to afford luxury beauty products, but sometimes our favourite things can be a bit on the pricey side. However, there can sometimes be a more budget-friendly alternative to something that you won't even notice the difference.

I recently swapped my Nars Velvet Matte Lip Pencil (£17.50 from Selfridges)
 For Maxfactor's Colour Elixir Red Lip Crayon (£4.99 from Boot's)
The colour of this Maxfactor red pencil is just as intense, the packaging is refined and classy, the texture is durable and smooth but not greasy - and there is a nice shimmer to the finished look.

The last-factor is about a couple of hours, but it's so compact that it's easy to whip out and re-apply easily - and it's useful to take on a night out and not have to worry about losing it.
