💋 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~! 💋

Spain Makeup & Beauty Haul #3

Hello everyone!

Here comes another beauty haul...hehe. This one is not too long tho, but, i wanted to show you the latest purchases. Ready?

I'll start with SEPHORA because I have 2 items, the first one is the SEPHORA Blush to go* in number 05 "Miss Flirty"
It is a stick blush with creamy texture and a powder finish. The one I got is a peachy shade with some shimmer. It is not that pigmented but you can build up the color. They have a large variety of colors, as well as hightlighters and bronzers (I think).
Oh! And it is really, really cute.

Also from SEPHORA, I got the Winter Wonderland set of face & eye brushes with a magnetic stand. I actually got this when Christmas was over so it was half of its price. They are very simple but pretty. The set comes with a Powder brush, a blush brush and an angled brush. All in black and gold. This brushes are a lot softer than the ones I got with the Mixology Eyeshadow Palette. I still haven't used this babies but I'm really looking forward to it.

Then is the Grace your Face Green Tea Eye Pads. It comes with 10 pads in the shape of green leafs that soothes tired eyes & help to reduce puffiness.

Another nail polish from Essence. This time I got the Essence The Gel Nail Polish in "On Air!" (44). I can't help myself.

Then I got this Hello Kitty Lip Balm duo because I love Hello Kitty and I can never have enough lipbalms...

And lastly, a makeup organizer. I already have 2 back home. I found this one at Tedi for €3, a lot cheaper than what I usually pay for them. And, it's been helping me to have my makeup organized while I'm here. Love it.

That's it for now! I'll see you next time~!

SEPHORA Mixology "Nude & Fresh Mix" Eyeshadow Palette

"Are you ready for another new makeup experience?
18 fresh and delicate shades for a very cool color cocktails. Blend, mix and shake all these tones to create irresistible looks! With gorgeous shades like pearly beige, metallic bronze, subtle taupe or suave brown, indulge yourself with this < Fresh & Nude > selection... without moderation!"

Hi dollies!

Not long ago, my mom gave me this beautiful eyeshadow palette, and since that day, I've been testing it and pretty much loving it.
It is the Mixology Eyeshadow Palette in "Nude & Fresh Mix." There is another one with darker colors but this one has more natural colors that suit my style a lot more.

This palette comes with 18 different shades in 6 sets of 3 shades each. Apparently it's made that way so you can use the colors on those sets to create your looks but, you can always mix & match as you like.

Ok, let's talk about the packaging first. Even tho I always feel more attracted to super cute stuff, I gotta say I really like this one too. The eyeshadow case is really simple but, it looks clean and kind of... elegant. It's a simple black case with brand and name in gold.
When you open it, it comes with a wide mirror, the shadows and a double tip brush.

Moving on to the colors, this palette comes with mattes, shimmer colors and metallics so, you pretty much have a bit of everything to play with. You can create very natural looks or a nice smokey eye look.
They are pigmented, application is smooth and they are easy to blend. Some of the combinations in those sets are not my favorites but since you have other colors to pair them with, it's ok.
Durability is great as well, the shadows don't disappear on your eyes as the day goes by. Some of the colors do fallout a little tho.

Here are the swatches of the colors. Since they don't have a name, I'll show them as they show on the package, same order, same numbers. Here we go!

1, 2, 3

4, 5, 6

7, 8, 9

10, 11, 12

13, 14, 15

16, 17, 18

So far, I've been enjoying this baby. The only thing that doesn't drive me crazy is the brush, but I will try to use it more to see if I end up liking it.

Until next time~!
