Review: Maybelline Colorsensational Lipstick in Honey Nectar

Hello, marvellous! I'm back with another review and today I am showing you the best pink lipstick I ever had so far. As I recall, my last pink lipstick review was Revlon Stormy pink and it wasn't a good love story. I also remembered buying Nyx Narcissus and it's just plain wrong for my tan skin - I was screaming Nikki Minaj.

But then, after months of wearing either a nude lipstick (In2it Orange Fizz) or red lipstick (CD Rouge Allure), I am craving for something flashy, girly, and colorful. So, I took on the plunge and went on for my search for the perfect pink shade.

A little walk along SM Beauty Section led me to a new found love for pink lipstick. Let me introduce my new baby love, Maybelline Honey Nectar! This lipstick is Maybelline's Pink Alert collectio and I am really in awe of how pretty this one looks on me.

COLOR:
Maybelline Honey Nectar is straight up bright pink color that is leaning towards ~~feaushia fuchia feachia~~ fuchsia shade. I love that this certain shade doesn't make me look too mature or tanner. The shade is what I like best with this lipstick because it is not shocking, not too light, not too barbie-ish, not too purple-ish. It has the right amount of pink tone that compliments my Filipina skin tone.

PIGMENTATION:
It takes three to four glides before you could actually get the right opacity. Though this maybe a downside, I think it has the right pigmentation as to prevent the bleeding of the lipstick unto the sides of the lips. Also, this has a biy of stickiness when applied so it kind of cling to the lips when applied. Anyhoo, it isnt a big deal because it still has a bit of smoothness so its not a harsh application after all.

LONGEVITY:
Amazing longevity, hands down. Clap clap clap with standing ovation, heart heart heart tururu.
Okay. Pardon the over-reaction but I am really shocked that this lasts on me for more than four hours. I am the worst when it comes to lipsticl because I kind of lick my lips quite a lot and I end up eating all the lipstick I applied. But this lipstick stays on pretty long on my lips.
When first applied, it has this beautiful gloss that creates a sweet pink loo. Then, as the day goes by, it fades into a beautiful matte pink. At the end of the day, it leaves a natural pink tint on the lips. Ain't that amazing? I havent had any Maybelline lipstick like this. The transformation from glossy to matte to tint is just marvelous much.

The swatch below stays on me until the next day. Magic, right?

Given that this is really long-lasting, you might need a make-up remover to get rid of the product. As for me, I just let it fade and that's it.

That's it for now, ladies.
Till my next review.Vavavabush!!!

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 ...

Revlon Color Lustrous Lip Gloss in Gold Frost

Ever since I started working, I have been wearing lipsticks all the time and neglecting the joys a lipgloss can do. I don't know if it's the age or maybe I have worn a lot of gloss when I was on my teens that I feel lipstick is for my twenties. But, when I saw Revlon Color Lustrous lipgloss, I cant help but fall in love once again with lip glosses. Why do I love this gloss? Let me count the ways.. 1. The shade is a beautiful golden nude that has a bit of shimmer, not glitters, that creates a lovely shine to the lips. 2. It glides on smoothly and is not sticky to wear. 3. Opacity is just right, not too opaque, not too sheer. I got this on sale so the price is way lower than usual, I got this for only P200 (such a steal right?)\The sales assistant told me that Revlon booths placed in the middle of the malls have more sale items compared to counters located inside the department stores. So, if you are looki...

NOTD: Bride and Bridesmaids

This post will be photo heavy so beware. Anyways, been wanting to try out some nail stickers but I am not really sure why I haven't had the chance to actually buy and put them on my nails. However, a visit to a craft store led me to find these cute flowers so I thought of giving these stickers a try. I like them actually. What do you think? These nails remind me of my brother's wedding which I actually attended as the maid of honor... I am the girl next to the bride... and as the wedding singer as well... Me and my Marvellous Man So, here's my nails again for your viewing pleasure. That's all for now. I promise to tell you more next time. Bye!

My Birthday Shenanigans : ABS-CBN Tour and ASAP Live

August is my birthday month so instead of doing my usual "Pieces of My Month" series, I decided to make it more special by doing series of posts called "My Birthday Shenanigans." I know that this has been an overdue post as we are already running through "BER" months, but as I have said before, it is better to post late than never. Anyways, one of the major things I did during my birthday was to take a tour around ABS-CBN studio. ABS-CBN is the largest broadcasting network in the Philippines as far as I know. So, if you are living in the Philippines, there is no way you do not know what ABS-CBN is. It has produced tons of television shows, entertainers, artists, broadcasters, movies, etc. My brother and my sister-in-law (who was also celebrating her birthday that day) were kind enough to invite me to join them in seeing the "behind the scenes" of TV production.
