Barry M's 101 and Gosh darling.

I love Barry M's 101 lip paint, i think its a great colour and stays on for such a long amount of time.
Although.. this is the only Barry M lipstick i have tried that has a slight drying effect on the lips. I have noticed when i apply the lip paint if you have slightly dry or chapped lips it will really show this and dry on your lips so there is no moisture. This is a real down side to this lipstick. I love the colour.

HOWEVER, there are solutions to this problem, i have started to put on a lip balm before applying the lip paint, this has helped it be more moisturising and helped it apply better on my lips.
Another thing i do is apply GOSH darling on my lips first and if i want to modify the colour and make GOSH darling seem slightly more Nude then i use 101 over the top. This works nicely and the colour lasts a long time.

I personally LOVE GOSH darling, i think it is a beautiful Nude shade. It has a great moisturising effect and glides on smoothly. It lasts a long time too!

Comparing the Colours of these to products.

Barry M's 101 lip paint is more a true nude, it does not have such a pink undertone. It is basically the same colour as GOSH darling but it does not have as much pink in it.

GOSH darling lipstick is a very wearable nude which has lovely pink undertones. I have quite pale skin and i find myself feeling more comfortable wearing this shade as it is not going to make me look like 'death walking' haha. ;)

Overall they are both lovely lipsticks, it just depends what type of lipstick you prefer!
