Read on my lovelies if you haven't entered yet..


I am a lipstick junkie!!!
I am proud of it..

Hello my lovelies!!!
I am here again with yet another lipstick review.. haha!
and of course, as the title stated, a GIVEAWAY!!!

I'm going to give you my thoughts on the much raved Wet 'N Wild Megalast Lipsticks.

I got 3 shades, courtesy of MUJS NotSoJunkieShop.
Yes, this post is sponsored but, I try my best to give you my honest opinion on the product.

*Thanks Eunice of MUJS NotSoJunkieShop for contacting & trusting me with this giveaway..much love!*


Here are the shades I got..



Aren't they all lovely???




SHADE: Just Peachy

Very true to its name. A beautiful peachy, slightly pinkish, in shade.
Of the three I find this shade the most "matte", hence most drying.
It's better to put a lipbalm first before applying this especially when you have chapped or cracked lips.


SHADE: Dollhouse Pink

This one reminds me of my Models Own Hyperbrite in Annalise's Pink.
Though this one has more purple tone than the MO, and a little more neon.
Still matte, but not as drying as the Just Peachy.


SHADE: Coral-ine

Pretty Coraly-Red in shade.
Very neutral, and is suitable to any skintone.
Good for "everyday" red lipstick, because its bright enough to give an impression yet subtle enough to steal everyone's attention, if you know what I mean. :)
This shade offers a semi-matte finish, not drying at all.


With these 3 shades, my favorite is Just Peachy.
It may be the most drying but it suits me and, well, I feel really pretty wearing it! hehe..

Here are some swatches..





Dollhouse Pink came out a little too purplish in photo.
But in person, its more of a Barbie Pink with just enough purple undertone.


OK!!!
I hope my little overview of the product gave you an idea about the said shades.

NOW, for the best part....
*drumroll*

Beauty UK Lipsticks

I'm a lipstick junkie!!!
I am not ashamed of it..

I have discovered this brand Beauty UK, early this year, and the first products I got from the said brand are

A few weeks ago, I got the chance to get my hands on their lipsticks.

Here they are..


These lipstick has that minty scent which is very pleasant and not overwhelming at all!
AND!!! There's a slight cooling sensation on the lips when applied!


I got 4 shades. From Red to Pink to Neutral color..


Beauty UK Lipstick in Tango.

  • It is a brown lipstick with gold shimmers, almost glittery.



Beauty UK Lipstick in Sunset.

  • a beautiful orangy-red lipstick. Very cool toned. With multi-colored shimmers/glitters.



Beauty UK Lipstick in Passion.

  • striking hot pink, almost leans towards red. (the photo shows that its a pretty pink shade, but it's actually darker.)



Beauty UK Lipstick in Chelsea.
  • a beige-nude color. Really pale.



What intrigued me about these lippies, is that, on the cover, that colored thingy (haha! sorry) you can actually take that off, and on that is a hidden gloss, not actually hidden but you know what I mean.. Haha!
Yes, that's a gloss!!! Interesting right?

NYX Round lipsticks actually has almost the same packaging but the NYX ones are not gloss but just a colored rubber/silicone.
BUT!!! Some NYX product do have glosses on their cap!!! Yes they do!!!
(I'll talk about that on the next post though..haha!)


So, here's what the gloss looks like.
Obviously, you're going to need a lipbrush to get the product, but you can always use your fingers.. *wink*


Here are some swatches..


The thing is, when I apply it on my lips, yes it glides smoothly, but my lips felt really uncomfortable with these lipsticks. Especially with the Tango & Sunset, the ones with shimmers/glitters.

I don't know, the consistency of that two does not appeal to me. :(

The other two, on the other hand, felt really smooth & silky on the lips.



VERDICT:

  • I'm afraid its a 6/10 for me.. :( It's not a total fail, but not impressive either.
  • Another thing is that, it is not true to color, especially CHELSEA, it is too light and pale when applied.
  • Packaging wise, it's OK. It's not the sturdiest lipstick packaging that I own but it's definitely sturdier than the NYX Round Lipsticks.
REPURCHASE??

  • No, I don't think so.. :(

If you are interested with these lipsticks though, you can visit
The Makeup Suite on Facebook.
and also follow Anna's blog, owner of The Makeup Suite.
She's just starting in the world of blogging but she writes & photographs well..


That's it!
Hope this post gave you some ideas on the said product.
I hope you enjoyed it! ^_^
'Til next time my lovelies!!!


Smile always and Stay beautiful

MeMeMe Flawless Face Collection Review

Remember my review on the MeMeMe Flawless Pressed Powder?
Remember that I said I'm saving up for something similar to it???

Well, it's here!!!

Anyway, I'm talking about this MeMeMe Flawless Face Collection.


Manong JRS delivered this last September 4. (read my MeMeMe haul HERE)
(Thank you so much MakeupHub!)

Yes, I've been using it since then!
Ok, let's talk about the packaging first, shall we???

The packaging is made of cardboard and it comes with a cut-out carton that you slip the box into to keep the box closed. (see photo below)


The box has a ribbon attached to the box's flap that acts as a "handle" when you open it.. ^_^

Aren't the design on box looks so elegant?
And the box is really sturdy, mind you, that means I can recycle it.. ☺


The next photo, you'll see the back of the carton, which indicates the ingredients of each item included in the collection.
Back of the carton

hello, SALADBOX!!! ♥

Have you heard about the Glossy Box?
It's a beauty subscription wherein you'll pay a monthly subscription, then they will send you different products from makeup to skincare, to perfumes and such..

I have been watching beauty gurus based in the US wherein they vlog about opening their monthly box..

Being a makeup enthusiast, I have always been envious of that concept. I have been hoping & praying that soon, we Filipinos will have our own version.

And then, yesterday, my dreams & prayers have been granted!!!

May I present to you the SALADBOX!!!


Basically, you have to visit their website, click the join button, enter your email address, wait for their reply, and voila! You're almost done! ☺

The subscription will cost you PHP 500.00 a month.
But you can also avail the 6-month or the 12-month subscription for 
PHP 2,700.00 (you will save PHP300.00) and
PHP 5,000.00 (you will have 2 months free save PHP1000.00) respectively.

Saladbox actually launched their website just last night, September 8, 2012.
Well, I signed up immediately! hehe.. ^_^

So, I won't say much, I'll let the photos talk to ya'll.. hahaha! *forgive my photos I just used my phone..*


These items arrived this afternoon! And I almost died! hahaha!
Remember my post about the first Mememe product I have?

I had to put the lipstick itself on the freezer to cool and solidify again, it melted in the hot weather because the formulation is very creamy.

MeMeMe Flawless Pressed Powder: Translucent

I have always been in search for a good compact powder.
Slim and light weight enough that I can carry with me anywhere!
Because lately, I'm in love with translucent powders, but it is a pain to carry it with me, with all the pigments going everywhere!

Then I saw Mememe Pressed Powder.. It comes in two shades, Natural & Translucent.
I got Translucent which is the lighter one..


What caught my attention is the details on the packaging itself..
It's so simple yet very elegant. And it is also very thin that I can put it on my pouch...which is a plus!



Here, you can see the product shade & description, along with the ingredients.

I was skeptical that this will disappoint me like most compact powders do,
but girl, I was wrong!!! 



This is really a pressed translucent powder, so it doesn't give any additional coverage.
Because it's translucent, anyone can use it. The formulation is a bit powdery, but that's okay (for me.) because it glides on the skin smoothly and it is easy to blend..


I use this to set my Maybelline BB Cream.
And it's so amazing!!! The result is really flawless!!!



It comes with a sponge.....a very thin sponge, the thinnest sponge I've ever seen! seriously!
(forgive the dirty sponge, I tried using it but it is useless!!! really!)


This is the only downside I have for this product... :(

But whatever, I, you can always buy a generic sponge. hehe..

Oh! By the way, I got this from MakeupHub by NatureleCollezione for PHP 480.00.
By the way, they're having a 20% off on all their onhand items until the 27th of August 2012.

So, yes! I recommend this to everyone, but most especially to those who doesn't need additional coverage.
I am now saving for the Mememe Flawless Face Collection, that's how impressed I am with this powder.

**you have questions regarding this product??? just leave a comment below and I'll try to answer it.. ^_^

That's it!!!
Thank you for your time! :)
'Til next time lovelies!!!

SHOUTOUT to Make Up Hub, Happy 2nd Anniversary!


Smile always and Stay beautiful

Mini Haul: Fanny Serrano by F21 Cosmetics

Hey everyone!

Yesterday, I went to the department store to grab the new Fanny Serrano BB Cream and ended up getting a lot more..... hahaha! ☺

Here are the items I got...


Hahaha!

Do you know why I ended up getting 6 items instead of just one???

Here's what happened,
I picked up the testers for the BB creams and the Saleslady immediately told me that the shade that will suit me is "Mestiza"..

FS BB Cream in Mestiza - PHP 299.00

By the way, there are only two shades available, the other one is called Oriental, which is the darker one.

And then, just before I leave the FS stall, I saw that they already carry the Two Way Cake in the new packaging. I already hit pan on my first FS TWC so, I decided to get a new one.. hahaha!

FS Two-Way Cake in Duchess - PHP 399.00
Too bad, they don't carry refills here in Pangasinan.. :(

Just when I'm about to go to the counter to pay. The Saleslady stopped me and said,"Ay Ma'am, naka-promo po pala kami. If you buy items worth 500 pesos may freebie po kayong makukuha. Either a Powder Blush or Liquid Lipstick." 
Then, I immediately went into mathematician mode! hahaha! (299+399=698 hahaha.)
Then I decided to accumulate 1000 pesos to get 2 freebies.
Anyway, I have always wanted to try their Gel Liner, and so.... I got one.. hahaha!

FS Long-wear Gel Eyeliner in Black- PHP 299.00
I was about to get the Brown one, but ended up getting Black.. haha!

Mathematician mode again... 299+399+299=997... :P (OMG! kulang pa ng 3pesos!!!)
I looked at all the items immediately and looked for the cheapest item just to reach PHP1000. Haha!
So, again, I got this...
FS Eyelash Curler Refill - PHP 45.00
Whew! 1000+ pesos na!!! ;)
Time to select 2 freebies...
the Saleslady then said, "Ma'am one shade lang po available sa powder blush, ito lang po..kasi ito lang po stock na binigay sa amin"
so I took it anyway even though it is not the shade I want..
FS Powder Blush in Angel Pink - FREE
on to the next freebie, but the Saleslady again said, they only have two shades available, so I chose this one..
FS True Light Liquid Lipstick in Light Sandwash - FREE

So there you go! hahaha! :)

The Saleslady also mentioned that the promo is until August 31, 2012 only.
I just don't know if the promo is available on all the FS stall nationwide. So, you better check it out.. ;)

What are you waiting for ladies? Go to the nearest Department Store now and take advantage of the promo! ^_^

***Highly recommended that you try their Two-Way Cake.. and for the freebie, go for the Powder Blush, its really great! The one I got is perfect for highlighting.


That's it!!!
Thank you for your time reading my post.. :)

'Til next time my lovelies!!!


Smile always and Stay beautiful
xoxo
