KAREN MURRELL VIOLET MOUSSE LIPSTICK: AN EVERYDAY AUTUMN/WINTER ESSENTIAL!

Violet is the colour of passion, extravagance, dazzling gems and femininity. It is also the reigning lipstick colour of choice during the seasons of autumn and winter; and with the weekend being overcast and chilly, I decided to brighten up the last couple of days by taking my new Karen Murrell Violet Mousse Lipstick for a test drive (ok, so I just wore it, test drive just sounded more exciting).

From day to night, Violet Mousse is just as appropriate worn to a breakfast meeting or touched up for after-work dinner drinks. This is the ultimate ‘little black dress’ lipstick colour to wear during the cooler seasons.

Even the scent of this lipstick is divine, let alone the amazing wearability (it literally stays on for hours), the colour is gorgeous and the velvety smooth application just screams luxury.

I also managed to get a quote (and a damned handy tip) from the lady herself, on what she had in mind when she designed her new Violet Mousse lipstick…

“I wanted to create a colour for my range that is an everyday basic, a colour that enhances beauty and suits all skin tones. Violet Mousse is a great natural shade with just a little depth so you won’t look washed out or sallow.” Karen Murrell, Creative Director, Karen Murrell Lipsticks.

“If your lipstick has broken, simply light a match under the broken part until the lipstick starts to melt a little. Then immediately put it back on the base, wind the lipstick back down into the canister and put it in the fridge, uncovered for about five minutes.” Karen Murrell Creative Director, Karen Murrell Lipsticks

Fashion Beauty Lifestyle Blogger A Girl Interrupted By Fashion, Beauty & Anything Pretty That Catches My Eye. Editor Angie Fredatovich. The Miscellaneous Musings Of A Girl Interrupted By Fashion, Beauty & Anything Pretty That Catches My Eye. I am passionately in love with the colour green!! I've always loved green, even as a child. My mother said this would wane as I got older. it did not!! I love nothing more than having the mundane interrupted by all things beautiful and fashionable. Passing time in tiny cafes with a pot of tea and a pile of magazines. Sitting under a tree with my favourite book or ‘old-school’ journal jotting down blogging ideas. Taking photographs of beautiful things, sitting front row at Fashion Week. Giant bunches of fragrant flowers, burning Ecoya candles, vintage jewellery. Trawling antique shops and markets for antique books, writing slopes and jewellery boxes. Hibernating indoors by the fire during winter, laying on freshly mowed grass eating pastries and sipping on raspberry lemonade during summer. The red sole of louboutins, exciting parcels arriving at the door with forgotten online purchases or product samples. Unwrapping the tissue of ‘just bought’ items of clothing from my favourite stores, Marc Jacobs, Karen Walker, Storm, Decjuba, Glassons, Loumina, Country Road, Bobbi Brown, MAC, oh the list goes on… Please do write to me at any time with comments, invites, press notes, media releases, things you’d like me to try and your own favourite finds. There’s nothing I love more than to connect with fellow Beauty Gurus & Fashionistas alike. You can reach me at angie@gurlinterrupted.com Ange xx
