Pucker up beauts, it's Valentine's. And you're about to fall in love [hard] with the new brand I've discovered for you today. Whether you're single, coupled up, married or not really arsed [like me] this gorgeous formula will seriously make you wanna throw kisses around like confetti on Feb 14th [and all the other days of the year, too.]
Meet my new bae - Runway Rogue. This fab American brand have truly wowed me - in terms of their packaging, design, branding, products, formula and colour pay off. They're going to start shipping to the UK soon, so I feel super lucky to have got my hands on these goodies early [blogging perks] and thrilled to be able to share these incredible products with you guys, here first.

Runway Rogue is the creative vision of 90's supermodel Patricia Hartmann, whose favourite aspect of her illustrious modelling career was the incredible transformation that happens in the makeup chair.
As a lover of all things that make lips luscious, Patricia has carefully crafted each and every shade of this limited edition collection of creamy lipstick bullets, rich glosses and extreme long wear pencils.
Their formulas are loaded with hydrating oils and extracts which will pamper your lips and keep them supple and soft. The textures range from decadently matte to deliciously satin to dangerously glossy. The colours come in an array of bright and bold, to sweet and sheer - and everything in between.
Runway Rogue's products are also cruelty free, paraben free and packed full of ingredients which actually do your lips good - added bonus right there!
I totally adore the lux, high end feel of Runway Rogue's packaging and design. Little detailing - like the clear panel down the side of the lipgloss tube, the thick, magnetic lipstick casing and the pretty, Hollywood inspired glitter lip liner - really add to the overall experience.
And the products themselves are legit UNREAL. The lip liner and lipstick especially left me pure lost for words haha - I've never used liner that glides on so smoothly [literally feels like a velvety dream] and the lipstick moisturises your lips whilst coating them in incredibly pigmented, long lasting colour. Wear the lip liner alone, the lipstick alone or both at the same time for a matte, bright pop of colour - or pop some of the gloss on top for a shiny, glossy finish. Either way, your lips are going to be the talk of the town #HAWT
Onto the goodies themselves.
I am obsessed with this lipstick. It's beautiful. It's a bright, bold, head turning red; with stunning coral undertones. Just like the sexy, vampy feels you get when you're strutting about in a hot pair of stiletto heels, this lippy lives up to its namesake and gives you the exact same buzz.
A little goes a long way and the colour is extremely long lasting. No matter how chapped my lips have felt during the day, popping this lippy on them softens them a treat and massively boosts my self confidence. It's just such a striking, spicy colour - definitely a go-to choice for that hot date, wild night out or romantic night in...
I love this gloss - it's so versatile and its packaging design is everything. Though not as brightly coloured as the other two products, this stunning lipgloss adds a splash of sheer, natural redness to the lips; for a just kissed, glossy pout. I like to wear this on my lips during the day, for a blush of colour and a glossy smile.
You will find yourself pouting at every mirror or reflective surface you pass by when wearing this - but hell, work it! Either wear this alone for a fresh, glistening pout or apply over a Runway Rogue lip liner / lipstick to add a glossy finish and secure your look in place.
This is by far the best lip liner I have ever used. EVER. Strong statement to lead in with I know, but I can't contain my love for this product. This is a matte lip pencil, which applies as a beautifully vibrant coral pink. It's the softest, creamiest, most velvety formula I've ever used - but yet still allows you to line with precision and legit lasts all day. I don't know how you've done it Runway Rogue, but this lip pencil has Run-Away with my heart!
I can't contain my excitement for trying other shades in this range - if they're anything like this one, I'll never shop with another brand again for lip liners. Yes, I'm THAT much in love. #Dedication
Now onto the icing on the cake, the end result. Brace yourself for the swatches you're about to see. These images are totally unedited, so you can see exactly how pigmented, bright and colourful Runway Rogue's products are in real life.
The first swatch is Covershoot Lip Pencil, the middle swatch is the Stilettos Satin Lipstick and the third, glossy swatch is [as you probably guessed] the Perfect Pout lipgloss. I'm literally blown away by how great the colour pay off is with these products - as I say, they're not like anything I've ever tried before. And I'm in love.
Whilst we're waiting for these amazing products to become available to us in the UK, make sure you follow Runway Rogue's Twitter, Insta and Facebook pages to find out more - even if we can't shop them just yet, we can still perve on their beauty and get inspired ready for when we can!
