I was so excited to see Clinique lipsticks on the front of Glamour this month because 1. I have a *bit* of a lipstick obsession (OK a huge one) and 2. It’s £2 for the magazine and the lipstick!!
I might have bought both colours because let’s face it at £2 each it would be rude not too! They’re tiny samples but great for the price and perfect for popping in your handbag!
The packaging is lovely I love the gold lid and the square shape. The red colour is called Cherry Pop and the nude is appropriately named Nude Pop.
Cherry is swatched on the left the Nude is on the right. The Nude Pop has a sheer effect and is quite moisturising on the lips they don’t dry out. The Cherry Pop is more matte than the nude but still has a sheer effect.
Neither have amazing staying power due to their sheer nature so you need to reapply regularly.
Nude Pop is quite a peachy nude despite the packaging looking a bit pinky but it’s a lovely colour and looks very subtle but effective when applied.
Cherry Pop is a gorgeous colour I would say it’s more raspberry than cherry but it’s lovely!
Sorry for the difference in lighting – I wore the nude one to work so took the photo this morning and tried cherry pop at home in the evening!
I managed to get the last lipstick at all when I bought the Nude Pop in the shop when I first looked and got the last Cherry Pop in Tesco when I looked again!
Has anyone else managed to get their hands on these yet? Let me know what you think!
Thank you so much for reading!

I love getting freebies with magazines. I need to go look for the glamour magazine 👀
Me too it’s the best thing about
Magazines! I don’t buy it if there isn’t a freebie 🙈 xx
We never get makeup freebies here in Canada! I love that you got 2 very different colours – both are beautiful! The mini size is perfect to slip into a purse. 🙂
Ah that’s a shame!! Yeah they’re lovely aren’t they! Had to
Buy two magazines though! They really are such a good size for on the go! 🙂 x
I guess that’s how they get you – so what did you with the extra magazine? 😛
I know right! There was a mascara and a moisturiser I just decided on the lipsticks! I gave it to someone else to read lol! 🙂 x
I picked up cherry pop and am in love with it .. It is such a gorgeous shade for the upcoming festive seasons !
