💋 My Current Favorite Lippies💄

It's been a while since my last makeup related post. Thing is, even tho I still love makeup, I rarely buy new products anymore. I'm trying to stick to what I have rn and restock whenever I run out of something. That's why I've been going back to the lippies I already had (which are too many).

I realized that the ones I'm reaching out for the most are very, very similar so, I kinda wanted to share them in here cuz they are very neutral, nude-ish, my lips but better kinda shades that can work all year long, no matter the season. At least in my opinion, hehe.

Since they are 2 liquid and 2 creamy lippies, I decided to divide them and start with the liquid lippies.

🗢 Revlon Colorbust "Sunbaked" (044)

This one is a liquid lippie I bought a while ago. To me, it is mix of pink and brown with a hint of purple.

Packaging is pretty simple but I like the quilted effect on the lid. I like the applicator, it helps you control the amount of product you apply, it makes it clean and easy. 

It keeps the lips moisturized and improves the texture of the lips. The color is lighter than what it looks like once you apply it, it is kinda sheer too but it does give you a hint of a tint. I like it because it's very lightweight and it's not sticky. It doesn't have a special scent to it, which is good for those who aren't too happy with scents.

Something I noticed tho, is that this product (and the whole line) is discontinued, guess I won't be able to repurchase once I run out of it.

🗢 Revlon Ultra HD Vinyl Lip Polish "Birthday Suit" (925)

Yes, I still have a Wonder Woman edition but, you can find this shade in the normal version too. I love this one, loved it since the first time my friend bought it and it's been one of my favs ever since. 

Even tho it is similar to the Colorbust lippie, this one is slighty pinkier and has less of a brownish tone to it. Plus it's not as sheer and it's more pigmented.

The formula applies smoothly and doesn’t settle into lip lines. It's a little creamy and shiny, which makes my lips look fuller. I usually get many compliments when I'm wearing it.

It contains vitamin E and shea butter, and you can get an even color with just 1 swipe. It does have a scent to it tho,  to me it smells like vanilla and I really like it.

Now let's move on to the creamy lipsticks.


🗢 CoverGirl Lip Perfection Lipstick "Sultry" (200)

I got this one a while ago, I've used it a lot, it's one of those lippies I think are perfect for every occasion. As you can see, the shade is very similar to the sunbaked one, I used to wear them together when I wanted a glossy look. It is also slightly brownish.

This lipstick is super pigmented and creamy. It applies smoothly on the lips and it doesn't set into the lip lines. You can build up the color if you want.

Durability wise, it's great. I like it because I don't have to worry about retouching it for a while. It does have a slight sweet scent to it. I can't really describe it but, I really don't mind.

🗢 Sephora #Lipstories "Oui!" (3)

Lastly, we have this beautiful baby. I haven't talked about presentation much cuz the others are pretty simple but this one is cute! All these lippies have a  packaging made of cardboard (I think) and depending on the shade, they have different designs inspired by stories on social media. This one has some hangers with pastel/pink dresses. Very girly!


The color is a warm-toned pink with a creamy finish. Again, kinda similar to the "birthday suit" one. I didn't choose them on purpose, hehe. It is lightweight, creamy and hydrating. I love it but, this one does set on the lip lines so, I always try to apply some lipbalm before.

Lol

And well, those are my 4 most used and current fav lippies. I just found it funny how similar they were. I know some people go for darker shades during Fall-Winter but I think I look way paler when I go for those colors. Idk. I do like to try something different every now and then tho.

I guess that is that for this post, it was fun taking the lippies pics and swatches! It has been a while! Anyway, I'll see you in the next one~! ðŸ’‹

Saniye Moist Lip Plump



Last month I receive this gloss as a part of the back to school pressies basket. I love lip products so I was really looking forward to trying it.

This gloss is by Saniye and it claims to make your lips look fuller for hours and give them a healthier look.


It's supposed to have Vitamin E along with advanced plumping ingredients. It's a transparent gloss with a non-sticly formula. It does keep your lips hydrated for a long time.

Almost as soon as you apply the product, you'll start feeling a kind of tingly sensation that might be a little uncomfortable for some. I don't really mind, it goes away after a while. I do have to say, it tastes really bad! It's like a bitter and slightly spicy taste. So, I wouldn't suggest kissing anyone while wearing it, haha.

Since it's transparent, you can apply it along with a lipstick and it still looks nice.

I decided to add 2 before and after pics cuz I was smiling on the first ones I took and I feel the difference doesn't show much.

I wasn't wearing wearing any lipstick but I did notice my lips turned pinkier. I like the color tho, it's like a "my lips but better" kind of thing.


I'd say that the difference is veeeery subtle but I see it. It does make my lips look more hydrated, without any dry lines and a tiny bit fuller, Specially on the upper lip.

I guess it's a fun product to try if you want something that is super subtle and temporary. I haven't really checked how long it lasts tho. 😅

And well, I think that's it for this post. It feels nice to share something makeup related for a change. 

See you next time~! ♡

💋 Jelly Flower Lipstick

Long time no lippie post! 

With the pandemic still out there and having to wear a mask all the time I barely wear or buy lipsticks anymore.

But, not long ago, my mom gave me this pretty Flower Jelly Lipstick from a brand called Ninfei. The presentation is very pretty and girly. 

It is one of those magic lipsticks that change color as you apply it. The difference from the others I have is that this one is transparent! And has a cute, green flower in it. 


It is long lasting but not as long lasting as other magic lippies I've tried. It does come off as you eat and drink during the day. It leaves the lips feeling smooth but not super hydrated.

Surprisingly, it has a sublte peach scent, nothing floral.

It has a nice, soft, pink color that you can build up without feeling thick. It's one of those "my lips but better" kind of color and it doesn't smudge when you wear a mask.

Apparently there's also a pink version of them that I defo want to check!

💋 Unicorn Glow Creamy Velvet Lip | Review & Swatches |

 


I recieved this lippie back in December as a gift from my bestie, Ceci and I've been wearing it often since that day. By often I mean, whenever I know I won't be wearing a mask all day long. It is from Unicorn Glow and, even tho I've seen their products, it is my first time trying them.

Unicorn Glow is a cruelty free makeup brand made in Korea and designed in New York. Checking their instagram, I found many cute and colorful products. I liked their whole "Discover your Inner Unicorn" concept. You can find their products at WalMart and Amazon.

The Creamy Velvet Lip  I recieved is in the color "01 Matte Caramel" and its a soft but beautiful peachy, nude shade, which were my favorites for a long, long time before the pandemic.

The presentation of this product is simple yet cute with the lip color on the bottle and cute silver iridescent stars on the white lid. 


 The applicator's shape makes it easy to apply the product, it kinda reminds me of the  Maybelline Super Stay Matte Ink in a shorter version. They both have the small loop in the middle.


Like I said, more than a caramel, it is like a peachy color that actually smells like peach! It's just so good!! It applies smoothly and the layers are thin enough to build up the color to your liking cuz even tho it is pigmented, it doesn't apply evenly. It dries kinda fast without feeling sticky or patchy and it gives your lips a soft, velvety finish.




Now I'm curious to try more products from this brand. I'm not sure what the price range is because I didn't buy this one myself but I'll defo check next time I go to walmart. I miss buying makeup!! 😭

Have you tried products from Unicorn Glow?? Let me know! 🦄

💋 Bissú Moisturizing Lipsticks | Review & Swatches |



 Bissú is a mexican brand with a big variety of makeup products, good quality and great prices. Even tho I've tried some of their products, I'm not super familiar with them. My bestie Ceci is tho and she included some of her products in my Advent Calendar last year. 

I have to say I've liked what I've tried so far, even tho I haven't used them as much as I wanted, since I don't wear much makeup these days cuz my face is covered with a mask most of the time.

Still, I wanna talk about these babies!

They are the Bissú Labial Humectante (moisturizing lipstick) and I got these 2 shades: #24  and #104. These are defo my favorite lipstick shades and they are perfect for an everyday look. 

#24, a peachy, nude-ish type of color




#104 is a beautiful mauve pink.



They have ingredients such as jojoba and vitamin e, to keep the lips soft and moisturized the formula is not sticky or thick at all.

These lippies are pigmented and they apply evenly, but they are not super long lasting. Which doesn't mean the durability is not good, they never claimed to be 24h lippies. And it's not bad for what you pay.

There are many colors to choose from and they also have a matte line. Even tho I like matte lipsticks, they tend to set on my lip lines and I just don't like that. That is also something I liked about these ones, they don't set on my lip lines.

All in all they are great, especially if your looking for something nice and affordable. I'd defo get more colors and I really want to get the chance to use these babies a lot more.
