MERCY. ME. It has been too long since I've posted! Weekly posts are on my hefty New Year's Resolution list I promise you! So as a premature start to the new year, here's a little video about the overwhelming joy of being made a Violent Lips Lip Ambassador and a supermarket sweep of cheap beauty buys to keep you looking just swell on a post-Christmas budget.



This is the Silver Glitterati on my friend TJ, the first pair of Violent Lips I applied on someone else!



Here are the names and prices of those products:

The Cheetah - the VL design I'm wearing in the video

I should also mention that for lovelies in the UK Violent Lips are now also available from: ASOS, HQhair.com, Topshop.co.uk and Boots (online AND in store!) as well as from violentlips.com

violently sexy lips!

OH. MY. GOD. If it was possible to fall in love with a beauty product I think I've just gone head over heels! On my blog travels I have stumbled across what I think has to be a cosmetic phenomenon!!

Click here for Violent Lips!
 They're a temporary lip tattoo, just like those super cool temporary tattoos from about 10 years ago (no but seriously, these ones are amazing!). You cut them to fit your lips, wet them, hold them, then peel off the backing et voila! Hot lips like never before.

The Pink Polka - around £9.25!

Now I know what you're thinking, how the hell are they going to stay on?! Well the Violent Lips girls are always at hand to answer questions. As long as you follow their application tutorials and leave off eating and drinking (or kissing!) for 15 minutes after application then they can last you between 4-8 hours, perfect for a night out!

Violent Lips already have a great range of colours and patterns, though in the next 3 weeks they will be adding an amazing 36 new designs to their website!

The Leopard - around £9.25! (one of my favourites!)

NOW is the time to buy these beauties too, because even though Violent Lips is in the US, for a limited time they are offering FREE international shipping when you buy any 3 products! (as with all International purchases it's always better to see if any friends want them too, works out cheaper for you!)

What with the currency conversion, one design with three applications will cost you around £9.25 which just over £3 a tattoo, that's cheaper than your average set of falsies!

PLUS this weekend they're offering 20% off all purchases with the code VLMDS, so you get even more for your money!! So go fill up your basket now!
