Revlon Colorburst Lipstick

Hey everyone!

A girl can never have too many lipsticks! And for me, I can never have too many lipsticks to review! Being a self proclaimed lipstick addict, I want to own all lipstick shades out there. Even the weird-halloween-type of shades.

I don't know what has gotten into me but I recently noticed that most of my Revlon Colorburst lipstick shades are shades I wouldn't really wear everyday. Shades that I wouldn't really buy if I was thinking straight. I guess this is the result of impulse buying. Whenever I see a good deal, like a cheap makeup product, even though I don't need it, I buy it because it's cheap. So, to girls out there who are still starting with your makeup collection, learn from me. If you really don't need it, don't buy it. Because I swear, you will not wear it and the product will just sit at the back of your drawer collecting dust. 

I'm not saying I don't like the product, in fact, I do. I love the formulation of the product. That's is what lead me to writing this post and realizing that I don't have any shade that I could wear on a daily basis. The colors are not at all bad. They're nice but they're just not me. 

L-R: Carnation, Mauve, Plumberry, Sienna, Raspberry, and Plum

OCC Lip Tar

Hey everyone!

I have another lip product review- SURPRISE! 

When I saw that Suesh Market Market carries OCC Lip Tars, I just coudn't resist! I fell in love with all the shades that it took me literally 15 minutes to choose which one to get. I would've loved to get a couple but I could only afford one for now. Besides, I still want to test the product before purchasing more.

OCC Lip Tar caught my attention since way back. The product got a lot of good reviews on Sephora's website, Makeupalley, and a lot of make-up blogs. So, my curiosity spiked! I thought, I really really need to try this product.

Essence Long Lasting Eye Pencil

Hey Everyone! 

I finally gave up on my search for a cheap but amazing eye pencil/liner. I have my fair share of eyeliners that I tried before and the only ones that actually work are either expensive or not locally available. So imagine my happiness, the look on my face when I have accidentally found my eyeliner soulmate. Why is it that I always find the good stuff when I'm at mall and not planning on buying anything. I think it's a curse- a good kind of curse.

I picked up these eyeliners when I was at SM Makati about three weeks ago. Just enough time for me to test this product out and do a review. The Essence counter is just filled with goodies with crazy affordable price tags. I thought the texture and staying power of these eyeliners were impressive, so I purchased them immediately.

When trying an eyeliner for the first time, I usually go for the black or brown shades. You can never go wrong with neutrals. I also picked up a pretty subtle bronzy gold liner.

ACCORDING TO ESSENCE:

Wet n' Wild Megalast Liquid Lip Color

Hey Everyone!

I should've called this blog "A Thousand Shades of Lipstick", because I am doing a first impression on another lip product.  Just so you know, I still have a lot of lip products in line to review. 

This product caught my attention a few days ago while I was browsing online make-up stores. You know how much I love the MegaLast Lipstick so knowing that it is from the same collection, I had a really high expectation on this product. I was really excited because this product claims to have a super stay power. That is certainly true, but I was more disappointed than pleased. It does have a very creamy consistency but it dries with a matte finish. Don't get me wrong, I love matte lipsticks but this product feels really tight on the lips when it has set and it cracks like crazy! 

Wet n' Wild MegaLast Liquid Lip Color
Shade: Pocketful of Roses
