Recent Favorite : Lipstick

Here are the list of my favorite lipstick :

1. Too Faced Melted Liquified Long Wear Lipstick - Violet -

It's my new toy and it is one of my favorite! I picked the Violet ones..

An intense color that i thought would be playful for spring/summer time.

The packaging :

A Liquid lip product in a tube.

Sponge applicator tip.

The product :

Easy to apply on the lip.

Creamy texture.

Intense pigmented color.

Build-able.

Semi gloss finish, but the more you apply the more glossy it looks.

Long lasting.

Smells good!

minus : Too much application would make a product bleeds a little bit from the lip. Lip pencil before or after application is recommended or if you have the lip primer, it would help.

2. NARS Satin Lip Pencil - Biscayne park

My favorite nude lipstick from NARS. Natural is the key for spring/summer glow!

The packaging :

Pencil lip product.

The Product :

Satin finish.

Creamy & buttery texture and very moisturizing.

Natural nude color perfect for everyday wear.

Doesn't settle on lip lines.

Easy to apply.

Long-lasting.

Minus : I don't like the fact you need a sharpener to get more product..

3. Maybelline - Born with it -

Nude with a hint of pink! What a romantic color!

The product :

Creamy texture with a little bit shimmer to make a glowing glossy effect on the lips.

Glides smoothly and build-able.

Smells like a shea butter and vanilla.

pigmented.

Need a touch up during the day! but so far, this is one of my favorite color!

4. Make up Forever Rouge Artist - Natural N 9 -

Got this from Sephora for my Birthday reward last month and i have been loving it ever since!

This is a small sample size but it contains quite a lot of product in the container.

It is a mild cooper-red-ish tone which i think it is prefect for a chic look but still wearable.

The Product :

Glides so easy on the lip.

Intense color and build-able.

Creamy texture, doesn't dry out the lips. Love the consistency!

A Mild and friendly red-ish color, perfect everyday color!

Long lasting

Could not find the minus of this product!Just LOVE!

5. Lime-Crime Opaque lipstick - Geradium -

A playful lip product with an opaque/super pigmented color collection in a pretty container!

The Product :

Super pigmented color.

Playful color selection.

Coral-pink color, bold and intense! Playful themed !

Creamy texture.

Semi- glossy finish.

Minus : Sometimes the product settles between the fine lines of the lip ( I have a dry lips, anyway ). Application using lip brush is recommended to help the product spreading evenly.

For now, thats all my favorite lipstick! Let me know if you have a favorite lipstick that you think i might like them as well! =)

REVIEW : URBAN DECAY NAKED3 PALETTE

Hi babes!I am excited to share this with you too..=)

So, i finally got this palette at ULTA it was US$52 plus tax..of course..

But, make sure to check your local makeup store for the price, could be different somehow..

I went through a lots of SOLD OUT for almost 3 weeks, i was gonna get this palette online through SEPHORA and ULTA even URBAN DECAY website itself ( since it first came out ) but, NO LUCK!

The reason i got this palette and wanted it so bad because i lost my Naked basic palette that i bought early this year and after 1 week, i lost it..what a bummer!I am still looking for it though, until now..haha..AND..my Naked ( first one ) is already torn into pieces, bought it long time ago when it first came out and it doesnt look like a palette anymore...lol.

Beside, this palette contains beautiful neutral colors, i would say this is a must-have item for a makeup lovers out there..neutral and friendly colors, you can use it everyday. I already have SMOKED palette which contains darker shades so i think this NAKED3 will complete it for the natural and friendly shades collection.

I actually was thinking about buying VICE2 but i realized the colors on the palette similar to my SMOKED palette and i am thinking to buy a neutral color so i could use it everyday and become my 'go to' palette. And of course to replace my NAKED BASIC ones..so, here it is!

THE PACKAGING

outside box

Embossed NAKED3 in gold ink with the 12 swatches of the eyeshadows on the bottom of the box

back side

Product descriptions on the back

INSIDE THE BOX

It comes with a small pamphlet which contains 4 samples of eyeshadow primer

Palette packaging

Covered with lightweight tin on the top and bottom, but the palette container inside is made from plastic

Inside the eyeshadow primer sample

4 samples of the infamous UD eyeshadow primers : Original, Sin, Eden, Anti-aging.
My suggestion is using a too such a Q-tips to get the product out from the 'tube' if you dont want to use the finger..

Description of the sample pamphlet ( back side )

Brush included

THE PRODUCT

12 colors of rose tone colors. Neutral looking eyeshadows perfect for everyday use.

It contains variation of neutral rose - hued tones : pale pink, shimmery, matte finish, satin finish, deep dark colors and some of them contains micro-glitter for an extreme shimmery look.

( such as - strange - ) until dark colors.
* Pigmented and opaque colors. Love the shimmery colors!

I have been eye-ing this coat since i saw this and decided to pick it from sammydress. And to be honest, since i discovered the site, i am kinda addicted to it! Totally will be back to the site and grab all those cute stuff.. #shoptildrop
I also impressed by how fast the shipping was..less than 5 days!!! #iamgoingnuts! i ordered it on friday and it got here in US on monday! Awesomeness!

The coat itself is well made, i am happy with the quality though!It comes with the hoody too! which it is very useful during this wind season. I love the type of dress-coat / trench coat kind a style, i think it is perfect to pair with almost everything and it looks chic. Also the wrap style gives a textures on the body shape...it also come in Apricot color , which i think i might get one for next purchase!

What do you think? =)
