☾ Sailor Moon X ColourPop | Daylight Lip Bundle |



Remember when I showed you my SM eyeshadows? Well, after waiting for a couple of months because of the pandemic, I got my hands on another item from this collab. This time is the Daylight Lip Bundle that comes with two products: Ultra Blotted Lip and Ultra Glossy Lip.
They have two sets, one is "Daylight" (the one I got) and "Moonlight" which is slightly darker.

I swear this products are sold out as soon as they are back in stock. Big shoutout to SKINA for contacting me when I was desperately looking for this products, hehe.

But, enough of the random talk, let's get to the proucts. Like I did with the eyeshadows, I'll start with the packaging.

☾ Packaging

Since most of the SM things I own have Usagi in her Senshi uniform, I choose school uniform / normal life Usagi stuff whenever I can, that's one of the reasons why I chose this set.
As well as the eyeshadows, the box is all pink with holographic deets. On the front we have Usagi and Luna, holographic moons on both sides and Luna on the back with a little description of the products.
Too girly, too cute, I love it!





The lippies inside are very simple to be honest, not that they are not pretty but, I think they could've done a better job (like those Japanese collabs). I feel like you can do a lot with something Sailor Moon themed.
The lippies are very clean looking with a pink lid and gold moon details.


Each of them has the SM logo and the name of the product, in gold too.

☾ Lippies

Like I said, it comes with 2 different products:

Ultra Blotted Lip: It's called "Usagi" and it's a bright pink liquid lipstick with a soft, matte velvety finish. This one doesn't have any scent to it.



It is described as "a medium coverage matte lipstick that creates a soft, diffused look. it is completely transfer-proof and long-wearing but also lightweight and comfortable. no cracking or flaking! leaves lips smooth and fresh."


I agree with the medium coverage, you actually have to build up the color a little to get an even finish. It is transfer proof but, not really long lasting. Color wears off as son as you eat or drink something.
I could be biased here because of how much I like SM but honestly, even tho the color is pretty and the finish is really nice, I'm not impressed with this one.



As you can see, the color set on the lip lines.

Ultra Glossy Lip: It's called "Moon Tiara" (hence the color) and it's a light orangle gloss with tiny gold and pink glitters. Even tho it's gloss, it is not sticky at all and has a nice vanilla scent.




Description: "swipe on our hi-shine, smoothing (never sticky) gloss and prepare to be obsessed. enriched with jojoba oil to moisturize, nourish, and provide a cushiony feel for juicy, fuller-looking lips. our brush applicator applies a perfect plush layer that looks and feels amazing. five flawless finishes from 3-d pearl to sheer tinted colour. apply over naked lips or your favorite lipstick."

This gloss is not tinted at all, in my opinion. But it works well on top of other colors, giving your lips a glossy, sparkly look. I have lots of peachy shdes so I think I can se it with them.
The aplicator is a small brush that makes the application clean and easy. I like it.






I tried applying the gloss on top of the lipstick, and even tho the color looked nice, the gloss kinda swipes off(?) the color as you apply it.

I don't regret buying this set because it's part of my Sailor Moon collection and to me, that's good enough but, I know there are better quality lippies out there for the same price I got these. So, if you're not a SM fan, I don't think these would be worth it. If you wanna but something from this collection, I suggest getting the eyeshadows or a blush. I've heard many good comments on the blushes and, they have pretty colors too.

Time for me to go win love by daylight~ ♡ Bye bye!

☾ Sailor Moon X ColourPop | Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon Eyeshadow Palette |

Have you ever felt happy about being an adult just because you get to spend money on things you'd enjoy having as a child but couldn't afford? That's kind of how I felt buying this eyeshadow palette. 



Hi there!

Earlier this month ColourPop came out with a collaboration with Sailor Moon. And, being the huge SM fan that I am, I just had to get it.


Sailor moon has been my all time favorite anime since I was a little girl, I know there are other makeup collaborations in Japan but they are super hard to find or just way too expensive. I knew this was my chance.

I literally spent a whole morning trying to find them. My original plan was to get the whole collection but it was sold out everywhere! Luckily I found mx.beautymkup on instagram and I was able to get the eyeshadows there.

mx.beautymkup gave me a great sevice, defo recommend it!

There's no need to say how excited I was (and still am) about this palette, it is just perfect. This is my first time trying ColourPop but I have to say this particular product is everything I expected.


Where do I start...?


This is the complete collection: Eyeshadows, liquid lipsticks, blushes and glitters. How cute are they? Plus, I loved the colors they have for everything! The lippies are my colors and the blushes... are just gorgeous.

But, we'll focus on the eyeshadows~

☾ Packaging

I'll try not to be too biased~ hehe.
Everything is pink with some holographic details. I love how the box has Usagi on the cover. Nothing too extra, holographic moons and the name of the product. Too cute!



My surprise was when I opened the box and looked at the palette, first thing I noticed was the funny looking changing picture of Usagi on the lid. So 90's!




Once you open it you'll see the eyeshadows and the name for each color.



It doesn't come with a mirror or brushes tho.

☾ Eyeshadows

Like I said, it comes with 12 different colors including matte neutrals, metallics and shimmers. All colors are bright and perfect for the Spring - Summer season!
Just by looking at them you can tell they represent the anime and the other scouts perfectly. And the names! OMG the names you guys! "Tuxedo Rose", "Silver Crystal" and "Luna" are some of them... my childhood heart is happy.



I've been trying some of the colors and pigmentation wise they are great. They also blend easily and don't fade away thoughout the day.
Personally, the shimmers are my favorites.


I admit some of the shades are not what I usually go for (such as "love", "justice" or even "tuxedo rose") but I've been having fun playing with them.

So, to end this here, I love them and I do think they were worth it. Not only as a fan, quality is great too. I still hope I can find the rest of the products in the future.

I'll go fight evil by moonlight now~ See you next time!! ♡
