A Review on Happy Skin’s Shut Up and Kiss Me|First Kiss


Happy Skin is known for its unique branding and very pretty packaging 😉 When hubby and I are looking for dresses in the mall, I entered Plains and Prints when I saw the booth of Happy Skin. The Saleslady entertained me and say “Ma’am we had a similar shade you’re wearing but won;t dry your lips.” Oooops! I never noticed that my lips is that dry already! 😦 (I’m wearing candy yum yum by the way :(). She ushered me to the different colors and the color that really grabbed my attention is the First Kiss. It is a warm pink in shade but really brightens your look. The lipstick looked like the jumbo crayon I used to have on my gradeschool. The first thing I noticed about this matte lipstick is that it doesn’t feel dry on my lips. It is rich in moisture and very light it seems that you were just wearing a lip balm! 🙂 Yay for that! Definitely a go-to lipstick. If you wanted to look sweet and subtle, this one’s for you gal! 😉 Perfect for a day look and even a party night. It also ‘sulit” for a P499.00 and it will really lasts long. It stays even when you eat, drink or kiss ;-). It is really easy to manage and apply. Just a sweep and you were all set. It blends easily and you don’t need to become an expert on putting lipstick on wearing this one. I will definitely buy another tube when I’m done with this one. 🙂

LA Splash Smitten Liptint Mousse Review


Hello there pals! I am going to write about a review of LA Splash Smitten Liptint Mousse. I got to stumble upon this product through my friend. I purchased two shades which is 14302 – Inflamed and 14304 – Enchanted. This will be my second attempt on wearing lip tints the first one is from Nyx Cosmetics.

I am so excited to try this product because its something new for me. But I got quite disappointed that the actual color is a bit different from the swatches. IKR! Swatches should be close to reality because this will guide on you the colors you will choose.

When I opened the tube, I notice that the smell is kind of intimidating. 😦 The applicator is okay, the size and the softness. It has a highly pigmented and creamy texture. When applied, it feels that you were really like painting your lips. Argh! 😕 It is easily absorbed and dries very fast upon application. Though the actual color is a bit different from what I have expected from the swatches, the color suits me well and I love them on my lips specially it really look good on pictures. However, you need to master the application because it is quite hard to control so, no! this is not for beginners. I also noticed that it leaves stains on my mugs, bottles, glass and spoons whenever I’m wearing it. Sad. 😦 It also dried my lips and turn flaky and leave a not so appealing stain on my lips after I have eaten my lunch. Sadly, even though I like the color on my lips, maybe I will not purchase this anymore. It’s quite expensive for a P650 tube and yet it can’t last even for a day and you really need lots of petroleum jelly to hydrate your pucker. 😦 😦 😦

Anyways, here’s how it looks when applied.

Are you feeling the same with this brand, or does it suit you well? Share your thoughts my love!

Mac Candy YumYum Review


Hello Loves! I’ve been really obsessed with lippies so I am giving a review on the most raved brand of lippies and that is MAC! 🙂

I’ve tried myself this brand because I really get curious why this is sooo expensive. I bought my first tube thru @luxekis an online seller on IG (IKR! I’m addicted to online shopping! 🙂 )

luxekis

When I opened the tube, that first thing that I noticed is that it smells like vanilla! It’s really yummy! It has rich and creamy texture and highly pigmented. It also a long long way even if you have eaten your lunch, sip your favorite latte or kiss your man (giggles!). It will leave a very good lipstain after you’ve eaten all your stuff which I find really good because you don’t have to re-apply every now and then. The only thing that you should be reminded when wearing this is don’t forget to put on a lip balm or a petroleum jelly before you apply because it is a bit drying on the lips (I’m sure you don’t want to mess up the look ;-)) which is very common for matte lipsticks.

I never regret that I have tried this brand though its really quite expensive but hey! the quality is really superb. 🙂 It is currently a staple on my makeup pouch. One of my go-to lippes because of the shades versatility. It can be worn when you feel like kind of a girly and when you want to amp up your mood. 🙂 However, the color might be quite intimidating to some because of its intense and vivid pink shade, but for me, I definitely love this and I’m on my second tube!

Here’s how it looks when worn.

Rire Lip Manicure Lipstick


Hello Lovelies! How’s the week going on? 🙂 After posting a photo on Facebook using LA Splash lipstick (will be having a separate blog for this! :)) for my LOTD (lipstick of the day), a friend saw this post and suggested to try Rire Lip Manicure Lipstick. She told me that it is waaaaay better than LA Splash. I give it a shot and bought 3 shades (IKR! I’m guilty of being a lippaholic <giggles>) namely the Pink Brown, Warm Peach and Muse Red.

Rire Lip Manicure is a Korean Brand which I don’t have idea where else I can buy aside from my friend. It comes on a cute tube with a cute applicator. It costs  ₱530.00 plus a Shipping fee of ₱90.00.

The seller claimed the ff. characteristics of this cutie little wonder:

  • brush your lip mani, Rouge highfix more than ever lipstick
  • new concept lip fixer, never remove all day long
  • vivid colors 12 hours lasting, real way vivid color, moist watery, the perfect coating,
  • waterproof

Ingredients: rosehip oil, avocado oil, macadamia seed oil, apricot seed oil, Vitamin E

The texture of this lippie is really watery moist which is perfect and blendable enough for easy application. The color is so intense that you just need a swipe for the entire day. Also, non-drying but expect a moisturized matte effect after application. Long lasting, water proof, I do not have to re-apply even after eating, drinking and sweating all-day long. (Isn’t amazing?) Kiss proof? Nah! I never tried that. LOL. Warning: once set, you might find it hard to clear it up so, better be careful. The only thing that’s bothering me is its quite small applicator that might find you a bit uncomf’table but then, practise makes perfect isn’t it? So I don’t bother that much compare to its good qualities.

Pink Brown Shade

The shade I love the most! It is perfect for everyday look and its shade is very flattering on any skin tone. It is a light pinkish brown shade that is perfect if you want to sport that chic look. Looks good also when paired with a hot smokey eyes or even just the sexy cat eye. It seems that you were just wearing your natural lip color only, more intensified!

Warm Peach Shade

image

This shade is an orangey-pink kind of shade. Personally, this one is the least that I used among the three because the shade didn’t blend well with my morena face. Also, it is more challenging to apply this shade. It is harder to blend because the color easily fades and just leave my lips like stained but has intense lined lips. However, some girls may find it goon on them.

Muse Red

This is what you call #fierce red! Super intensified and flatters any skintone. It can also make your teeth look whiter and your face brighter due to its flattering bold seductive red shade. Unlike Pink Brown, this one leaves stain on things you used (e.g., lipstained mugs, water bottles) and there are times that it smudges around my lips, chin and cupid’s bow. Sad. Nevertheless I still like this kind of red shade. Perfect for that sultry look, bare-faced make-up, and instant blooming effect even if you’re lacking sleep writing blogs (just like me!)

Over-all, the product delivers most of its promises and I really love its matte effect. Though I might think twice buying the Warm Peach shade. So, it’s a 2 out of 3 and that’s pretty good. If you want to try these babies here is the contact info of my friend selling these lippies.
