Vice Phenomenal Liquid Lipstick

Ever Bilena Kris Matte Matic Lipstick - First Impressions

I was actually holding myself from buying this since it was introduced in Kris's facebook.  I was fascinated that she agreed to collaborate with Ever Bilena.  Ever Bilena is one of the popular and actually nice quality local makeup.  It's affordable and what's great is that it can compete with international brands.

KJM Cheek & Lip Tint - Review

I've seen lots of beauty gurus raved about this cheek and lip tint, that it was affordable and lasting power is amazing.  I bought mine in the Trendsetter's Bazaar to try it out (even if I have lots of lip tints already.... 😅).

Packaging	It's in a plastic bottle, approximately 8.5 cm long, 2 cm in diameter.  It has a black label with golden lettering.  I like that this is compact and can easily fit inside your pcoket.

Ever Bilena Liquid Lipstick - First Impressions Review

I have an incoming artsymed project so I bought this liquid lipstick, I need a mauvey type of color without breaking my wallet.

Packaging	This comes in clear plastic tube with colored top.  The container is rectangular in shape. This comes in a doe foot applicator that's easy to control.
Smell	Berry Candy scent
Consistency	This has a moussy type, velvety texture.  It has kind of a thick consistency. I got the shade: Cashmere Blush by the way.
Application	It's very pigmented, easy to apply and very comfortable to the lips.  The berry scent smells delicious which disappears eventually.  This feels like you have something on your lips but not that bothersome.  The finish is velvety then dries matte after a few hours. This takes time to set in, I tried to do the kiss test at around 5 minutes after application but it has not set in yet. This last for around 6 hours.  It's not food-proof but kiss-proof after around 1-2 hours.  After eating, there will be disappearance in the inner part of your lips. Here's how it looks after eating my lunch.  You can spread it though so there's no need to retouch during this time. If you'll ask me, I'd say this is a dupe for Happy Skin Shut Up and Kiss Me Lip & Cheek Mousse.
Pros	Affordable Berry Candy Scent Comfortable to the lips, not drying Dries Matte Dupe for Happy Skin Shut Up & Kiss Me Lip & Cheek Mousse
Cons	Takes a while to set in Not Food Proof
Recommend?	Yes
Rating	8/10

The Beauty Bakery Milk and Vanilla Sea Salt Scrub - First Impressions

I have never tried a sea salt scrub before ever... haha... at least in the comfort of my home... I've tried some foot spa before, when we had our vacation in Baguio though.  My friend, Judy gave this to me, since she has an extra according to her... (Whew... good thing though, I'm running out of things to review hahahahaha... since all the products I've reviewed are NOT Sponsored in any way.)

So let's begin... this is a new experience for me too... 😊

Packaging	It comes in a very cute plastic bottle with a cork cap.  The plastic bottle is translucent with sticker label.  It also comes with a wooden spoon.  The jar contains 200g of the product

Fashion 21 Eyeshadow Palette - First Impressions

There's been a slight delay of my review posts, well it's because I've been busy preparing for my report (in urocon).  After the conference I felt really drained, like I've used up all of my energy for that conference.

Anyways... I'm supposed to review the Laneige Lip Mask, however I've decided to use it a little longer so I can make a more reasonable review for it.

Let's just have a first impressions first of this local brand, Fashion 21 Eyeshadow Kit.  This is the eyeshadow palette I've been wanting to buy since it offers a wide range of colors for you to play with. 

Packaging	The packaging is a standard plastic black packaging.  There's no mirror in the cover which is a con for me.  There's no applicator also, which is another con also.  I feel that the plastic packaging will break easily.

Nichido Stardust Eyeshadow - First Impressions

I seldom use brown eyeshadow, I'm more of a pink and gold type of person when it comes to eyeshadows.  But brown eyeshadow is something like a must have, it can go well with almost any outfit.

But I didn't want to spend so much on brown eyeshadows since I don't frequently use them.  So I thought of why not buy from one of the local brands instead.  I originally intended to buy the Fashion 21 Eyeshadow, but to my surprise, the Watson's in Greenhills doesn't carry Fashion 21! That's to my surprise as well.  Nichido was on sale when I went there, I bought this eyeshadow for 89 from the original price of P168.

I got the "Totally Neutral".

Packaging	It comes with a bronze colored box.  The palette is in a plastic container with bronze colored cover.  A mirror is behind the cover.  It also comes with a sponge stick applicator.

Maybelline Lip Flush - Review

I first learned about this line from a Youtuber, Doll Up Mari.  I was intrigued with what she was a very comfortable formula and nude shades.  So I tested them out.

I bought my lipstick from Watsons, P229.00 in the shade PK02.

Packaging	It comes in a silver plastic tube with pink translucent plastic cover. With the cover, it's shaped rectangular.
Smell	This smelled really good! It smells like candy.  When you apply it onto your lips, it always makes me want to lick my lips.
Consistency	It has the same consistency of Aritaum Water Sliding Tint, it's very creamy and has the consistency similar to a lip balm.
Application	This is a nude shade, perfect for your everyday use.  It has a like touch of pink to it and a little glossy.  There's a hint of glitter to make it a little bit of shiny.   When applying, it feels SSOO SMOOTH! It glides perfectly on your lips.  I feel like I'm applying lip balm every time I apply it.  It's very moisturising to your lips.  In fact, you don't need to wear a lip balm underneath it or over it. You'll always get the feeling that you're applying a quality product onto your lips
Longevity and Kiss Test	There were no claims that this is a long lasting lipstick.  The lipstick lasted for 3 hours.  You'll definitely need to reapply during the day. It's not kiss proof and not water proof
Try-out Duration	1 week
Pros	Very smooth application, moisturising to your lips , nude color, perfect for everyday use, sweet yummy candy smell
Cons	not long lasting (only 3 hours...)
Recommend?	DEFINITELY!!!
Rating	9/10 (-1 for its short longevity)
