Inspired by JLO's Nude Lips: In2it Moisture Intense Lipstick in Orange Fizz

I have always been on the hunt for a nice nude lipstick that can beautifully mute my pigmented lips. The desire to rummage around for the best neutral lipstick started when I would always see myself being drawn to wearing dark hues of eyeshadows, only to find out I have no nude lipstick to pair it with. I would always end up wearing light pink lipstick which I think is just fine but I wish I could have a neutral colored lipstick so the eyeshadows can pop rather than making the lipstick clash to the eye make-up. Should I say my hunt is always a fail. Sometimes, it’s too pale, too light, a lot of browns, lots of pinks, always a fail. What I really want to have is the kind of lipstick that will definitely erase my lips but won’t make me appear sickly. Arrrgh! Women are such confused beings!
Anyways, this is how nude I want my lipstick to be…

Girl crushing is on!

I always wonder how JLO rock the nude up until I saw I video of youtuber Jenn Im where the girl uses not brown or light brown colored nude. She used a PEACH lipgloss. Wow. That was a surprise. I realized I’ve been doing it all wrong because most of my so-called nudes have pink undertone or brown. I realized that the best color that can mute pigmented asian lips should have orange undertone, more of in the family of peach. So, the search began for a nice peach lipstick that I can translate into my favorite nude lipstick. 

Up until one day, JLO…and behold… I found a peach lipstick. Yeah! A muted orange type of lipstick that can live par to JLo’s rocking nude lips… Here it is, my new found baby: In2it Moisture Intense Lipstick in Orange Fizz

In2it Moisture Intense Lipstick in Orange Fizz

 To give you a detailed review of In2it Moisture Intense Lipstick in Orange Fizz, here it is:

-     Application is a bit tricky especially if your lips are darker than this color. I realized that the problem is not on the lipstick itself but more on the clash of my natural lip color and the shade of this particular in2it lipstick. The key is to find a good lip brush to blend it well on your lips.

-    If you put the right amount of In2it Moisture Intense Lipstick in Orange Fizz, this lipstick turns into a lovely hint of peachy-tint. However, if you put too much product, it clumps unto the lips that it can get a little drying and sticky. Putting too much will cause the lipstick to slide off your lips but putting just enough will give a divine peach hue on your lips. This is the reason why most girls think this is a drying lipstick when in fact the key is to just use one swipe and you are good to go.

-   In2it lipsticks cost P375.75 per stash here in the Philippines. It is inexpensive compared to high end brands that can cost around P1000+ but it’s definitely more expensive than local drugstore brands. The price is comparable to Maybelline lipsticks. You can find in2it lipsticks in Watsons, SM Beauty Department, and some Cinderella branches.

-    This color can work well with a dark smokey strong eye make-up but if you are wearing very light to no make up make up, this color can make you look pale. If you want to take a break from dark lipsticks, this can be a breath of fresh air but if you want a hint of color on your lips, this may not be a good choice.

-    I’m obsessed with the classy packaging of this lipstick. I can compare it with the packaging of high end lipsticks that I have like Christian Dior and Chanel. The silver casing is very sturdy and comes with little diamond-like studs and classy art-border. Elegant, definitely.

To give you an idea, here's a photo of yours truly wearing my In2it Moisture Intense Lipstick in Orange Fizz. Excuse the uber selfie shot.

To summarize:
Color: Lovely and Unique
Formula: Ey Okay, not great but definitely just fine
Staying Power: Longevity is not that amazing because it kind of faded after an hour
Packaging: Lovely, very lovely, classy and elegant
Price: Sold at P375.75 not expensive, not cheap either

All in all, this is a nice neutral color to be in your stash because you can tone it down or even build it up with another lipstick or lip gloss.  As for me, I am happy I got this unique nude lipstick but I might as well say I am still on the look out for a better one.
How about you? What is your nude lipstick scene?

My PIERCINGS- Accidents, Stories, Reasons.. etc.

Elow elow elow Dear Reader! So, today, I bought new set of earrings and I realized, I haven't really talked about my piercing experience. So, I thought maybe I should answer some common questions about my piercings and piercing in general. How many piercings do you have? As of the moment, I have a total of six individual piercings. Three on the left ear, three on the right. When did you get them and why? 1. The first pair was done when I was four or five years old. I remember my father bringing me to a little health center and telling me to just tilt my head and that was it. I don't have much to say about this piercing because it was like a "default" kind of thing - sort of a tradition or one of those mandatory things a girl has to go through-  so nothing special in this pair. Also, I was too young to remember how it felt like. Too young to even comprehend. But I remember being happy having the privilege to wear such pretty gold earrings. I had the rest ...

TURNING PAGES: Outliers by Malcolm Gladwell

When I was in kindergarten, I had a hard time understanding Math specifically the lesson in  “greater than- less than-equal to” equations. My mother, being a teacher, helped me understand the lesson by using analogy . In a manner of storytelling, she told me that the sign corresponding greater than/less than/equal to is  Pacman  (the famous computer game back then), while the numbers in the equation represent the amount of apples . She told me I have to point Pacman’s mouth to the larger amount so he can eat more apples. I never failed at greater than/less than/equal to lesson ever again. SOURCE: h ttp://prekandksharing.blogspot.com/2012/08/montessori-inspired-greater-than-less.html Outliers  by Malcolm Gladwell is a lot like my mom’s way of teaching me Math. It is composed of analogies and stories that helped me understand the wisdom behind success. It will not tell you what to do, it will ask you to analyze the roots of success and w...

Honeymoon in Palawan: Bakers Hill, Buttterfly Garden, Immaculate Conception Cathedral

So, after two days spent in El Nido Tour A , Tour C , and the ever famous Underground River, we continue our Palawan escapade via our rented motorcycle. After Mitra's Ranch , we went to Baker's Hill, Immaculate Conception Cathedral, and Butterfly Garden.  This is one of the several posts I made about our Trip to Palawan. Here are the links to other posts for your convenience: El Nido Tour A El Nido Tour C Underground River Mitra's Ranch Bakers Hill, Butterfly Garden and Tribal Village, Immaculate Conception Cathedral Palawan Wildlife Rescue and Conservation Center Palawan Museum and Plaza Cuartel BAKER'S HILL When we were at Baker's Hill, I was kind of wondering why it's called as such because it looked like a park and not a bakery. Later did I know that it is actually a theme park with bakery inside.  BUTTERFLY GARDEN One of my favorite attractions in Puerto Princesa, Butterfly Garden is the home to hundre...

On Self-Acceptance

It was late September when I started "Marvellous Much." For two months, I labored myself from taking photos to writing to editing and then publishing. I took this as my own, my baby, my little sanctuary. Although I've done several blogs before, this is the first time I have ever done a blog that is somehow commercial and is focusing on a certain niche. I aim to create a professional blog on this one, something that I can give to the world. Every now and then, before I click the "publish" button, I would see myself stepping back and forth. I know I doubt myself so much. I always see myself as not good enough. Every time I would go public, things scream unto my head - words such as "what will they think of my work?" "Is this great?" "Will the people like it?" I hate this thing about myself. When you lack confidence, you lack strength. I hate myself for this. I hate that I sometimes hate myself. However, for the past two months, wi...

BDJ FAIR 2015

This is my third time to go to this yearly event hosted by BDJ. First time, I went with a friend (Well, hello Ghem!). The next one, boyfie was with me. This time, I decided to just go by myself . I tried to maximize the event so I spent the whole afternoon going from one booth to another. I also pre-registered to two talks/seminars to get an insight or two. If you haven't heard of them yet, BDJ is a community of empowered bellas. Actually, it all started with a kikay planner- The Belle de jour Power planner. Then a community was formed involving mostly users of planners and  kikay girls alike. As for me, I've been a BDJ planner user for five years. I go to the event (if time allows me to) because this is where I can buy the new and upcoming planner in a much lower price compared to its selling price. I bought my new planner for only 500 pesos as opposed to its original selling price of 580. Also, the event is actually pretty cool. You can go around, win some fu...

Review: In2it Waterproof Single Blush in Charm

This post is dedicated to my boyfriend's sister who loves to rave about in2it products. She loves the brand so much she's literally into it. (Can I get an A for that intro?) Anyways, one of the things I noticed about her is the beautiful shine she has on her cheeks - not greasy type of shine - but a lovely flash of highlight. So, I thought of trying out in2it's blush for the first time. When I went there, most of their blushes were sold out. The sales assistant said their blushes are their best sellers- no doubt about it. So, I asked her what shade can she recommend for my skin tone and she confidently suggested the shade "Charm." I tried out some of their blushes, pink ones in general, but Charm really stood out for me. The sales assistant was right, Charm definitely suites me better. In2it Waterproof Single Blush in Charm is a peach blush with gold shimmers. I, for one, am afraid of shimmers because my face tends to become very oily and to add more shi...

Curly Find: Dove Nourishing Curls Whipped Cream Mousse

Living in a country where straight hair rules, finding a good styling product for the curly hair is such a pain in the ey-ess-ess. For the past few months, I've been experimenting on different hair products, mixing and jumbling all sorts of creams, mousse, gels, etc etc. Product after product, layers after layers.  I honestly sometimes feel like going back to straight hair is way easier and economical, than spending so much money on hair products, but then I do love my current buhahag hairstyle- I feel some sense of uniqueness and personality with this kind of hair- so I think I wold just go on with this journey and just enjoy every part of it. So, today, I thought I would share my experience with this Dove Nourishing Curls Whipped Cream Mousse.  This is by far, my favorite mousse cream for my curly hair. Let me tell you some of my opinions regarding this product.  1. SMELL - Oh. Goodness. I love the smell of this one right out of the can. This is...
