Mother Daughter Makeup: Revlon Goldpearl Plum Lipstick

Hi, everyone! I have an exciting post for you today, as it features an extra special guest- my Mom! I think this is the first time she's made an official appearance on the blog, so it's definitely about time. My Mom is not as much of a makeup nerd as I am (few people are, I suppose), but she wears makeup daily and is a sucker for a good lipstick. When I spotted some lipstick duos from Revlon the other day, I decided to snag one with the purpose of sharing: one for me, one for my Mom!


The makeup section in Wal-Mart was offering several Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick Duos, featuring doubles of the same lipstick for the price of one. 



We perused the selections and chose Goldpearl Plum, a mid-tone warm plummy shade with a golden pearl finish (as the name suggests!). 




In my opinion, Goldpearl Plum is such a universally flattering shade. It's not too pale or too deep, is warm, but not orange, and the shimmer is soft and pretty, rather than frosty. And the formula is ultra creamy!

Here are my Mom and I sporting Goldpearl Plum, demonstrating just how lovely and universal it is! 



I couldn't have been happier with having my mother in this post- she is such a wonderful woman and has done much to teach me about real beauty. Featuring her here (and gifting her with this lipstick) was the very least I could do!

Do you share a love of makeup with your mother or any other special women in your life?

Have a beautiful day! xo

  1. That's such a cute idea! My mom likes makeup, but not the way I do. It's funny thought... because while I love makeup, I almost never wear it around the apartment when I'm at home. My mom however, will wear it at home regardless. I got my mom into MAC, but in general she sticks to Maybelline/Revlon, etc.

    1. Yeah, my mom is pretty much set in her makeup routine, even when she's around the house! And yeah, she mostly wears drugstore makeup, but I'll sneak her some Clinique now and then :)

  2. My mum is not really into makeup so it is always me who gets some makeup products for her and get her to use it :) Goldpearl plum is a pretty shade and it suits you both.

  7. NGL--I read this post weeks back and thought it was the cutest idea for a post ever (and a great way to demonstrate how a lipstick shade looks different on different people!). My mom doesn't really wear makeup, so no sharing for us :(
