Etude House Sweet Cherry Tint Review

 

Oh Etude House, thank you for trying to bring Spring to my still too cold world!

At least the snow has stopped! (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧

Hopefully…

I’m definitely blaming the cold weather on my purchase of these new brightly colored tints. ╮(─▽─)╭

Packaging:

As usual, everything is adorable! I almost didn’t want to throw away the boxes, but what in the world else would I do with them? Suggestions?

Anyway, the product comes in a tube like a lipstick would although instead of twisting for more, you press this odd button on the end.

 

I suggest you be veeeery careful when pumping this product for one super awesome reason – – –

Consistency:

From the packaging I expected more of a solid bar of tint instead of the extremely watery, gel like liquid that came out when I pressed the button. It keeps it’s shape, but can be really rather messy when your applying. It’s liquid and slips for about 15-20 until it settles on your lips, so be careful!

Finish:

This tint is pretty in between on every scale. It’s not drying, but not moisturizing either. The finish isn’t quite matte, but doesn’t have that wet look of a gloss.

It’s very…fresh?

Scent:

There is a slight cherry scent to both of the tints. I love it personally. (^_^)

Swatches:

Shade OR201

 

See what I mean? From the looks of it I thought it would feel and apply like a lip butter.

 

Because it’s very liquidy, it will settle in lines.

 

I only put one coat all over, so I don’t know if it will layer well. The color is a bit sheer, but I did blend it out with my finger. That seems to be the easiest way to make sure it doesn’t end up everywhere.

This tint is clearly orange in the tube by the way. It settled into an almost peachy color on my lips. Oh well! (-＿- )ノ

I still think it’s pretty!

Shade PP501

 

You can see this one was a bit runny even before I used it.

 

 

I love this color! I’m always a sucker for bright colors, and this one is no exception!

 

This color does have a bit more of a watery finish and I will definitely be wearing it a lot in the Spring.

 

The glossiness fades after about 20 minutes and stains pretty nicely. It’s still really bright too.

You can buy these over at Jolse and there are five total shades available. All of them are really pretty and suitable for the warmer weather headed my way.

Finally! 😀

L’Oreal Infallible Pro-Matte Foundation Review

And I’m baaack~~~

With a review of a Western product. Surprised? I know ;).

Allow me to explain. I have a love hate relationship with Walgreens! Every time I go, I absolutely have to check out the cosmetics section. It’s an addiction. If there is something new or on sale, it will probably end up in my hands.

This product has been out for a couple of months and I’m actually on my second tube of this. Why? Because the first was stolen by one of my sisters a couple of weeks ago. *Sigh* The pains of being the oldest haha.

Well, let’s get into why I’ve been wearing an actual foundation almost as much as my much beloved Innisfree Ampoule Cushion this Winter.

Shade Options:

I’ve spent so long in the world of bb creams that I’ve forgotten that makeup can come in more than shades #13, #21, and #23. I find that amusing to say the least.

L’Oreal has a pretty good range of shades from light to dark in 12 options. I was worried that I wouldn’t be able to find a matching shade because I’ve had trouble with Western foundations in the past. My skin is pretty light, but has a yellow undertone and that’s been awfully hard to find at the drugstore level.

Luckily #104 Golden Beige turned out to be an absolute perfect match for my NC25 self!

Packaging:

I’m not mad about this packaging design. Tubes are always nice. Honestly, anything but a pumpless jar will satisfy me ;).

There is only one slight problem I have. Because of the finish on the tube, it’s a little difficult to choose a shade unless you check reviews first. Once you open it, the color is very close to the color on the outside, so that helps.

Texture:

Honestly, I was very surprised with the texture of this foundation! It’s super light and almost watery in consistency without compromising in coverage. I really appreciated this since I’m not used to wearing anything heavy on my face.

It does set suuuuper quickly, so it’s best to either use your fingers or a damp sponge/beauty blender and work in sections.

Coverage:

This is a solid medium coverage foundation. I barely had to use any concealer! Well, except for under my eyes, but those dark circles are in a league of their own!

It did a great job at making my skin looks smooth without any primer.

The packaging did say it had a demi-matte finish and I didn’t look dried out, but I did find that I preferred using a bit of highlighter with this foundation. I don’t think I’m entirely into the whole matte face thing.

Scent:

There is a slight chemical-like scent that I probably wouldn’t have noticed had I not intentionally smelled it. Definitely a change from floral scented bb cream. *cough* Lioele *cough*.

Longwear: 

Oh my goodness, did this foundation exceed my expectations! I have pretty dry skin so that probably helped, but I didn’t have to use any powder or touch up at all during the day! The best part is that it doesn’t oxidize either. None of that scary orange tint I used to get from Western drugstore foundations in the past!

Results:

And now to the actual application!

 

I haven’t had too much trouble with redness lately, but you can see hints of it as well as a couple blemishes here and there. And I think I got more freckles this Winter. How that happened, I will never know!

Remember when I said that #104 was a perfect match? Well, look at that! It took me a minute to decide which half of my face I had actually applied the foundation too when I went back to look at the pictures. I have never found a foundation that matched my skintone this well before!

 

Ok, and now I’ve got the foundation all over without concealer. I can’t get over how natural the color is! It also did a great job at covering any redness and blemishes.

Needless to say, this is now one of my favorite base products! It will probably be my go to foundation when the weather gets warmer and I need a bit more oil control.

So what about you? Have you tried this foundation yet?

 

 

 

Sweet Office Look Featuring Birchbox Goodies

Hello again lovelies!

I’m back again with something simple because I wanted to try out the cool Birchbox goodies that I received from Jacqueline, A Vibrant Day, on her past giveaway. By the way, if you haven’t already you should definitely check out her blog. She is super sweet and has a lot of great makeup and nail posts! ❤

I kept everything pretty toned down because 1. I work in a church and 2. I wanted to see how these face products did on their own.

This is what I have on my face that came from Birchbox:

Really, the only things that aren’t included here are my brow and blush products.

First, let’s talk about this BB cream!

This is actually my first time trying a non-Asian BB cream. Don’t choke too hard! I know, it’s crazy. ╮(─▽─)╭

Smell: There isn’t really a smell, so that’s nice for people who are bothered by that.

Consistency: Ok, have you ever tried a snail cream that feels like the snail has actually made it’s little way across your face and left everything behind? This is kind of what the BB cream feels like. It’s so thick, but not necessarily sticky. I’m not sure how to describe it…oily lotion?

In any case, if you have super dry skin you will probably love this. As someone who has moderately dry skin….Well, I was reaching for the setting powder as soon as I finished applying the BB cream. Luckily, it doesn’t feel too heavy on your skin after setting powder.

Coverage: Eh, this has light to medium coverage. I’m pretty sure the focus of this product is the glow factor. That, this BB cream provides in spades!

Ok, this contouring powder is a keeper! I’ve never been really big on contouring because I haven’t found a product that looks natural, but this is perfect! It’s really pigmented, but blends super well.

The cool thing about this compact is that underneath the powder is a fairly large mirror.

It comes with a little brush too that isn’t to bad, but I don’t think I’ll be using it.

There is loads of product too, so I have no idea when I will run out. I will definitely be repurchasing when I do though!

Together with the BB cream, I think this bronzer gives a pretty good glow for the Winter months. Remember, I did powder, so all that sheen is the BB cream. Without the powder your face looks just a tad bit on the wet side of radiant.

I think I’ve mentioned this before, but I had a favorite mascara before and wasn’t really looking for a new one. HOWEVER, this baby has just taken over the pedestal! Oh my goodness, I look like I have fake lashes with this stuff! o(≧o≦)o

Ah, hello there freckles. I forget you exist haha.

Anyway, look at those lashes! The were full and lengthened and this is only after one coat. When I opened my eyes, I could feel my lashes almost to my brow bone!

This lip gloss is the main reason I decided to go with a sweet, pretty look for today. It’s almost sheer, but makes your lips look super plump and kissable.

I think that in the future I’m going to try this over some matte lipsticks. I feel like it would give them some life ;).

Overall, I love these products. The only one I’m pretty iffy about is the BB cream. I think I’ll try it a few more times just to see if my opinion changes.

In other news, I’m so proud of my hair today! It looks on point, right?! This almost never happens! I’m so glad I decided to bite the bullet and cut the rest of the bleached hair off. My hair will grow out healthy now!

AND BONUS PIC!

This is what happens when I’m allowed in Best Buy! I found this awesome camera with a flip screen and was playing with the auto focus because I’m a big child (~￣▽￣)~. One day, that camera will be mine!

.And look at those eyelashes! Awesome, right?!

Thanks again, Jacqueline for fighting to get these goodies to me! I really appreciate you and the chance to try these products I probably would never have picked up on my own.

Until next time,

You keep doing you!

(☞ﾟ∀ﾟ)☞

Innisfree Ampoule Intense Cushion Review

Oh my goodness, where has this cushion been all my life?!

Ok ok, so it just came out, but still! Innisfree just put out their winter foundation cushion and I bought it as soon as it was available on Jolse!

I regret this decision not at all! I’m so excited about this cushion, so let’s just jump into the review.

Packaging:

One of the things I absolutely love about Innisfree as a brand is that they are extremely consistent in their promise of eco friendly products. The box the cushion came in is made from soy ink and other natural, recyclable materials and is very simplistic in it’s design to reflect the natural stance of the company.

Nothing wrong with clean packaging ;).

Shade Options:

As per the standard, the shades available are #13, #21, and #23 and it’s important to remember that Innisfree shades run a hair lighter than some of the other brands. Where as #23 is usually suitable for MAC NC25, you need to be at a NC20 or in between the two shades for this to match.

Claims:

• Triple function: whitening + wrinkle improvement + UV blocking
• Express moist skin for a long time by forming a layer of moisture on the skin
• Blooming oil which reflects the light evenly expresses ampoule intense sparkle from the skin
• Excellent adherence to the skin that gives you natural coverage

Ingredient wise, it has niacinamide and adenosine so the whitening and wrinkle care is definitely there. The brightening and moisture come from several natural ingredients such as: green tea extract, orange peel extract, and orchid extract.

Well, if I wasn’t sold already that’s enough for me! I love products with natural ingredients!(｡♥‿♥｡)

Coverage:

This is somewhere in between a  light and medium coverage foundation cushion. The main focus is definitely on the moisturizing power, I think.

The good thing is that it is definitely buildable and you can re-apply it throughout the day without it looking all crazy on you.

Lasting Power:

I don’t really use face powders because I like the finish on the foundation, but it still lasts a good 3-4 hours before I need to touch it up. It wasn’t really designed to be a long wear, so that doesn’t bother me. In fact, I like re-applying my base foundation/bb cream because that means my sun protection is always active.

Results:

 

 

For all the light coverage, I can say one very positive thing.

This foundation definitely cancels out redness ^_^.

More than concealing blemises or anything like that, my main skin/makeup concern is the redness. Granted, it’s not that terrible, but it annoys me. My face is so pink!

 

 

Ah~~~ There we go!

I don’t know if you can tell, but if you have dark circles like me, you will need to use a separate concealer.

 

And this is about 15 minutes later with the rest of my makeup and the foundation has settled. It doesn’t really oxidize, so that’s a definite bonus.

I really, honestly expected it to have a bit more of a dewy finish, but it ended up as an in between. So if you like a little dewy, this will be good for you ;).

 

The ampoule intense cushion is very comfortable!

You can’t even feel it on your face after it settles other than the fact that your face feels moist.

 

So basically, I kind of love it :D.

The only thing I would have liked more was for the formula to be a bit more dewy. I was looking forward to that bit with how much my skin dries out in Winter.

 

What do you think? Will you be adding this to your Winter regimen?

Sample Wednesday: Lioele Triple Solution BB Cream

Hello lovely people~~~

How was your day? I hope it was filled with rainbows and unicorns! (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧

For real though, I have no idea how to sleep anymore. Now that I have two full jobs, at a church no less, life has been pretty interesting! I am trying to jump back onto the bandwagon of blogging because this is my favorite outlet. ❤

SO! Let’s get started!

 

 

This baby has been sitting in my sample drawer for a good while.

Why? May I speak frankly?

The Lioele Triple Solution BB Cream only comes in one shade. This really irks my soul!

(ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻

Why, Lioele? Why? I understand that Korean society is still largely homogeneous, but really? Is everyone the same shade?! Oy.

Anyway, I got bored with my bb cream this morning, so I decided to try this out!

Claims:

• Skin soothing from organic acid from yogurt
• SPF30 PA++
• Flawless coverage
• Anti-wrinkle care
• Whitening
• Natural shine without oiliness

Key Ingredients:

Let me just say, I am very pleased with the active ingredients! Some cosmetic that claim to have whitening properties contain only titanium dioxide that just gives a temporary white cast to your skin.

There is one ingredient that can aggravate/cause acne!

This is literally the only ingredient I can complain about, but it is talc powder. Personally, this doesn’t bother my skin, but it could definitely for other people.

Otherwise, here’s the good stuff!

• Arbutin – a leading ingredient for whitening
• Adenosine – a very effective ingredient for wrinkle treatment and prevent

Scent:

Ok, either allergies have kidnapped my powers scent, or this seems to be less…princess-like as far as strong scent goes. The other Lioele products I’ve tried have had very strong floral scents, but this one is mild and fades extremely quickly.

Result:

 

Oh, my skin….

But it’s getting better! I’ve recently discovered some awesome products that are working wonders on my skin!

Mostly, I’m just dealing with redness and a few blemishes.

 

First observation – AMAZING coverage! Oh my goodness, this is fantastic! For bb cream, the triple solution bb cream is definitely high coverage. I didn’t even have to use concealer under my eyes!

This is with the rest of my makeup and in the sunlight. The bb cream didn’t cake or oxidize.

I would like to mention that I am lucky that this shade actually works on my NC25 skin. This would be good for NC20-25 and has a subtle yellow undertone. I really like the finish too! It’s very fresh and keeps the promise of not looking oily.

 

Will I buy the full size?

Heck yes! o(≧o≦)o

But I think I will wait for spring because it doesn’t have enough moisture care that I desperately need during the winter.

Side note, I feel like my hair cut makes me look so much younger!

 

Then again, it might just be the fact that this bb cream makes my skin look awesome! 😉

 

What do you think? Would you try this bb cream?

 

Special Gift from Estée Lauder!

This is for all of you lovelies that go gaga for Estee Lauder!

Or for those of you who would like to check out some of their products. 😉

When you buy more $35 or more Estee Lauder products, you get this awesome bag of gifts! This offer is only available on Belk and Belk.com through October 26th, so you might want to head over to their website or store soon!

This is not an advertisement! I just wanted to let all of you know what I found while I was shopping! ^_^

And speaking of shopping, all I orininally went online to buy was lipstick! My friend was loking for a specific color and it just so happened that I found it at Belk.

I bought two tubes of the Estee Lauder All-Day Lipstick in Frosted Apricot. It’s a gorgeous color, but not quite as moisturizing as I would like. I did have to apply a smidge of chapstick underneath to keep my lips from drying.

 

It does have great staying power though! I don’t know if I’m going to pay $20 for this again. Call me cheap, but that just seems like too much to me.

Ok, so let’s move onto the gifts. The bag in the first picture does come with the gift and it’s pretty nice.

Perfectly Clean Multi-Action Foam Cleanser/Purifying Mask 

This is the first time hearing about a product that can be used as a cleanser and a mask. Right away that make me a little worried that it might be too strong even though it is labeled to be suitable for normal/combination skin.

It does foam up really nicely and cleans your face really well with minimal makeup. However my skin is dry/combination, so using this as a mask would definitely be a little strong. No chemical burns, just a bit of dry discomfort.

This would definitely be good for those with combination/oily skin.

Advanced Night Repair Synchronized Recovery Complex II Serum

No isn’t that a mouthful?

Now, I don’t have wrinkles and one night isn’t enough to tell a difference in the way my skin looks, but can say that this feels amazing! It is an almost runny liquid and spreads very easily on your face. You can immediately feel the moisture and it feels very refreshing.

Sumptuous Bold Volume Lifting Mascara in Black

 

Now, as far as mascara is concerned, I have a favorite and I haven’t tried another mascara in at least 2 years. But I tried it anyway. And I’m doing my eyebrows tonight. Enjoy their raw state. This is how much I love you. 😉

 

 

 

 

The length is really nice! However, I don’t see any change in the volume. It’s good, but not on my purchase list.

Also, I found this wand to be obnoxiously large and awkward to use. It is as big as my eye itself!

Thank you for showing me how small my eyes are, Estee Lauder. 😛

Pure Color Long Lasting Lipstick in Pinkberry

 

When I saw this color in the tube, I honestly felt a little jipped. I don’t wear a lot of neutral lip colors. Bright colors are much more entertaining! (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧

BUUUT~~~ When I actually applied it, it’s really quite pretty!

 

I really think this shade is going to be perfect for Fall!

Modern Muse Eau de Parfum Spray

 

There are two little sample spray bottles in here which is really nice if you like the scent!

It is rather strong, but it normalized after a few minutes. The scent is really light and pretty with slight floral notes? I couldn’t really distinguish anything in particular.

Anti-Wrinkle Advanced Time Zone Age Reversing Line/Wrinkle Creme SPF 15

Another mouthful!

 

Ok, of all the other gifts, this is the one that I would purchase. Oh my goodness, this makes my skin feel amazing! I don’t have any other way to describe it other than how your body feels after drinking water on a hot day is the way your skin feels after application. It’s like all of your skin relaxes.

The only downside is that it costs $42 for 1 oz! I think I’ll stick with the anti-aging products I just received from Korea after I finish this up. I don’t want my skin to get used to the more hard core ingredients too early ;).

I haven’t used any Estée Lauder outside of their Double Wear Foundation which was amazing! It was gifted to me and I just never repurchased. If I ever get into the habit of wearing full makeup on a daily basis, I will. After all of this, I might have to pay more attention to this brand. Their products really are wonderful!

Do any of you want to get your hands on this bag? What would you buy?

 

 

 

My New Favorite Everyday Foundation

Evening, ladies and gents!

Ok, I know I called this a foundation, but I don’t really know what to call this product.

Basically, the Label Young Shocking ZZ Cream is a miracle in a bottle! ᕦ(ò_óˇ)ᕤ

 

Honestly, I’d never heard of the brand or the cream and when I saw it in the Memebox store, I was curious.

SO~~~~~

Here I am with my absolute favorite base makeup product for everyday ^_^!

What exactly is ZZ cream?

Good question!

Because I had no idea either until I looked it up. ╮(─▽─)╭

Here’s the breakdown: BB + CC + DD + Pore Primer.

BB  – Blemish Balm

CC – Color Correction

DD – Daily Defense (although I can’t for the life of me figure out what it defends against)

Pore Primer – Well, that part’s pretty self-explanatory.

Packaging:

As you probably know by now, I’m a sucker for cute packaging. This is pretty simple, nothing too eye catching.

I do like the tube even though the pumps are my favorite dispensers fore pretty much everything ;).

Consistency:

Just a note, this cream is really quite thick! I would suggest warming it a bit with your fingers before you try to apply it to your face.

It does spread easily enough.

Color Selection:

There are only two shade options available: #21 and #23. Since this looks like some sort of standard in Korea, I stuck with #23. I do tend to lose my tan in the winter, but I highly doubt I will get that light. (~￣▽￣)~

Results:

Now to the most important part! I’ve made you read enough I think.

 

As you can see, I still haven’t corrected my sleep patterns.

OH WELL! That’s what concealer is for.

 

Or just really good ZZ cream! Look at this coverage!

Here’s a closer look:

 

Awesome, right?!

It’s not quite full coverage, but a nice medium that can be built up easily. I do like that my freckles can be seen through. Full coverage on my face freaks me out!

The pore primer is really nice as well. I feel like it really smoothed my skin!

It did come out a touch lighter than I expected. However, it did adjust quickly.

 

 

I’m not sure how much I’ll love it as it get’s colder and I start fighting dry skin, but for now I’m absolutely in LOVE with this ZZ cream.

 

I know it’s not super well known, but have any of you tried this yet?

Holika Holika Wonder Drawing 24hr Auto Eyebrow Pencil Review

 

 

Hello everyone ^_^~~~

I’ve been holding onto this for a while, but I’ve been using this eyebrow pencil for about a month. This is the first time that I’ve used a color this dark and I don’t think I’ll be going back.

At least, not any lighter than a dark brown.

This is the second product that I’ve used from Holika Holika and I think I’m going to have to do some more exploring!

I got this in #1 Grey Black, but there are 3 other colors available.

 

Packaging:

Unlike their blusher, which you can see in the background, this packaging is super sleek and simple.

I don’t dislike it, but what can I say? I’m a Taurus.

Cute packaging is always welcome! 😀

 

The end has a spoolie!

That is one of the main reasons I decided to try this one instead of the plethora of other eyebrow pencils on the market.

 

This is how it looks when you first get it, but since the product is really soft, it ends up being more rounded.

Consistency:

Like I said, the gel is SUPER soft and you don’t have to press very hard to make it show up. In fact, I’ve found that I need to apply this with a feather light touch.

Lasting Power:

Oh my goodness! Holika Holika advertises this as an all day, no smudge product and let me tell you, they aren’t lying!

Even when the rest of my makeup fades, my eyebrows are always strong.

Though, that may not be a good thing ;).

 

Application:

Ok, see why I need to fill in my eyebrows?!

My eyebrows fell victim to my teenage years and I’m still trying to grow them out.

 

Tada!

 

I really love this pencil! It is so easy to use for someone like me who is still a newbie when it comes to filling in my own eyebrows.

 

This is how I apply it. Since I have to fill in the super sparce inner area, I draw a few short upward strokes to make sure it doesn’t look too fake.

For the rest of my eyebrow I use short, light strokes just to fill in the empty areas. The only long line I apply is underneath to reinforce the shape.

 

 

What a difference eyebrows make! Even with simple makeup like this, I feel like having fuller eyebrows just balances my face.

 

Aaaand you can see all my freckles in this lighting!

But my eyebrows look good ;).

Have you tried this eyebrow pencil?

Sample Wednesday: Etude House Precious Mineral Cotton Fit BB Cream

So let’s pretend it’s Wednesday, ok? (ι´Д｀)ﾉ

I’m actually kind of excited about this one! This is the first time I’ve really tried a bb cream that was actually suitable for oily/combination skin.

Le gasp!

I know, crazy right? Not even a dewy finish in sight.

 

Also, I don’t think I’ve ever tried a bb cream from Etude House. I don’t even know how that happened.

I received this sample in the shade W13 and I really wish that companies let you pick you free sample. You’ll see why.

But hey, it’s free so how much can I actually complain? 😉

 

This week has been kind of crazy for me and it’s definitely reflecting in my skin. You can see the redness and how dull my skin is right now. It is definitely time to switch over to my winter skincare routine.

 

And this is where you can see my slight disappointment with the shade. I am a NC 25, but the shade W13 is more suitable for an NC 20. It’s not terrible though.

But~~~

Look at the coverage on this baby! You can barely see my freckles and the redness is 100% blocked out. And, as an added bonus, my skin looks brighter as well.

Although that might be because the shade is literally brighter?

 

The lighter shade doesn’t look so drastic now that it’s all over my face. And you can tell it did adjust just a tiny bit.

 

And look at the finish! It is matte, but not too dull looking. When I was applying the bb cream, it really felt like it was dissolving into a powder and that was really nice.

This would be absolutely perfect for Spring if you have problems with oil!

Oh, and as you can see from around my nose, if you have any dryness this bb cream WILL accentuate it. I wouldn’t recommend this for people with dry skin anyway.

 

I really love how nice this bb cream looks on my skin! I feel a bit like a doll. The staying power is really wonderful as well. Since it’s not quite Fall here, it was crazy muggy and my makeup didn’t fade at all!

Next Spring, I will definitely be buying this bb cream. In the shade W24 though. ｡◕ ‿ ◕｡

 

What do you think? Have any of you tried this bb cream yet?

 

Flower Cosmetics High Shine Kiss Stick Swatches

Happy Wednesday!

I’m finally doing another part of my Flower Cosmetics swatches! Today, I’m moving on to the high shine kiss sticks.

 

The color selection for these lipsticks is pretty good, but I think a few of them look pretty similar. I own 3, but there are 9 and only two seem to be bold colors.

Before I get to the swatches, let me just remind you of my natural lip color.

 

My lips are a dark-ish red/pink. Why does this matter? I’ve found that my lip color can be kind of hard to cover up with some lipsticks. A lip color needs to be pretty pigmented to cover my lips without a lip concealer.

That being said, let’s move on to the neutral shade.

LS10 Nude Narcissus

 

Well, I think I accidentally found my skin tone! It’s pretty random that this lipstick matches my skin better than most of the foundations I’ve tried.

Maybe I should just wear this on my face! Good idea, right? ^_^

 

 

I think it definitely looks prettier in the tube than on my lips. Seriously though, I’m still really surprised at how much it looks like my skin color!

Honestly, I don’t have too much use for nude lipsticks. I only do heavy eye makeup every once in a blue moon.

LS11 Morning Glory

 

Remember what I said about similar colors? Yeah, this looks a lot like the Nude Narcissus. I really wasn’t expecting this because the color at the bottom of the tube is so different.

I was expecting and almost lilac shade, but instead I got this!

 

 

Sooooo I’m not into the pale pink, I think. Not good for the warm skin tones!

LS15 Tulips 2 Kiss You

 

Now this one is completely different from the other two! This is so bright and pretty! It’s definitely a Barbie pink color.

 

 

One day, I will perfect this wink without looking like a crazy person ;). I have wonderfully mature life goals *giggle.*

 

 

Look at how pretty this color is!

I will say that this seems to be one of those colors where you actually need to wear real foundation. I’m only wearing a really sheer bb cream in these.

I seriously cannot be bothered with real foundation during the work week. ∩(︶▽︶)∩

Overall:

I don’t think I like these as much as the matte kiss sticks. It’s probably because I love the bright colors of the other line, but the fact that these are actually moisturizing still cannot beat the others.

What can I say, I am still a kid who loves brilliant colors (─‿‿─).

What do you think of these? Would you wear any of these colors?

Random side note:

 

I’m pretty sure the Barbie pink color brings out the green in my lenses! BONUS! ❤
