Smashbox have recently released their new 'LIGHT IT UP' gift sets in time for Christmas. One of the sets I had my eye on was the Lipstick and Mattifier Set which includes 6 vibrant lipsticks and an Insta-Matte Lip Transformer.

| Famous, Fig, Inspiration, Legendary, Primrose & Tabloid. |
From left to right the shades are Famous, Fig, Inspiration, Legendary, Primrose and Tabloid. Overall you get a pretty decent range of colours in this set with some more muted shades to the bright and daring shades such as Tabloid. Primrose is definitely my favourite and I can certainly see myself wearing that colour on more of an everyday basis.
The formula can be a little sheer with certain colours but is easily built up as they are cream lipsticks. The mattifier I was pleasantly surprised with, it does as it says on the tube. Although it can be a little messy when applied with fingers! It doesn't change the formula to a dry matte one as such, but takes out the sheen from the lipstick. I'd like to see the effect this gives when used with different brands and formulas of lipsticks.
The LIGHT IT UP Lipstick set is available HERE and from Boots for £25
