EverBilena HAUL

Hey everyone! I have got a haul to share with you guys and these are my top favorite local brand here in the Philippines and it's everbilena Cosmetics. I was at the mall just doing my regular thing window shopping and could not resist to check what's new on their counter. I saw lots of new stuff at the everbilena from blushes to eye palettes, lashes, lip products and more. I bought 1 pair of eyelashes which is called the "DEMI" ones and also their lash glue. Then I have seen my other Co- Pinay Youtubers raving for the Liquid lipstick and saw a lot of good comments and just had to get one for myself, so I just got one because I wanted to use this and change up my on the go everyday lippies. I got in the shade soft Lace which is a neutral pink good for everydays. Then I got their new released lip product which was the Matic Lipstic, and from the outer face of the lipstick to me it kinda look like a stabilo pen (hehehehe! ) but it's a automatic lipstick were you twist the base and the bullet will eventually pull up. I got in the shade "PLUSH PETAL". Next I got a their new blush palette which is a duo blush and but before moving on quick short story about this is that, the sales lady was starring at me watching me swatch every blush because I was trying to decide what blush suits me, and then she came up to me and said : "Ma'am Nag mamakeup po kayo?" , and I was like "Opo, bakit po?" she said : "Hindi kasi halata ma'am kasi natural lang face niyo, yong walang makeup nagyon" and I was just smiling and saying : " Salamat po Miss hehe kayo lang kasi nakapansin nun saakin eh :) " . I was happy about her compliment because honestly I do love makeup, I love to wear them but I do not want to go fully pack on more stuff on my face usually because, I had a skin problem during the past, dealing with combination skin which is oily to dry skin, then having brow acne which is always seen on my top brow areas and scars on my face from popping pimples (my bad :/) and discoloration and also melasma. So recently I do not abuse my face instead putting minimum like doing brows, blush, no masacra's sometimes because I do have itchy eyes sometimes, then minimal blush and lip tints. That's all. Plus with my regular face routine and my dermatologist right facial care medicine my skin started to clear up bit by bit. But enough said of my skin I may be doing a separate blog about my skin if you want me to. ^_^ So moving on to my last two products, I got the blush duo in "SUMMER FLING" which I believe is the darkest shade because I like the blush which was like a deep orange/y color and matte earth/y brown for your contour. So everbilena was so unique to design such blush duo's because you can save up your money instead of buying single blushes, you go with their duo's because they included 1 shade for your contour. Lastly I got their new eye palette which is in the color "PINK", and they're (5) shimmers and (1) matte eye shadow. I got this because it is versatile for me to use to add sweetness to my eyes if I feel going for a pretty girl makeup look kind of thing/y. So that ends my haul, I hope you all liked my haul and for the prices by the way for each product here it is:

1. Lashes "DEMI"                         -  Php 195.00
2. Eye lash glue                          -  Php   60.00
3. Liquid Lipstick "SOFT LACE"     -  Php 180.00
4. Matic Lipstick "PLUSH PETAL"   - Php 180.00
5. Blush Duo "SUMMER FLING"       - Php 220.00
6. Eyeshadow Palette "PINK"        - Php 150.00

                                              TOTAL : P985.00 only ^_^

Till next time as always Take care & "simply love life always"

Lime Crime Velvetines Liquid Matte Lipstick | REVIEW & SWATCH

Hello everyone! Here's my review on the Lime Crime Velvetines Liquid Matte Lipstick, honestly I have read some good positive feedbacks on these liquid matte lipsticks, from each shades I have seen I wanted to have one for myself but it is way too expensive, talking about Lime Crime products since it's a high end cosmetics today. So I was hoping to find a alternatives to the lime crime one's and luckily I have found a replica of them. I bought these Lime Crime matte liquid lipsticks on a online shop called sissyshoppe they sell a lot of Singapore Authentic cosmetics, like the replica ones while the original ones are U.S Authentic , so it's a whole lot difference between them plus they're safe to use, Class A high end replica, hypoallergenic. I got three shades which cost Php 100.00 each for whole sale 6 pcs - 95 each, 12 pcs - 90 each and 24 pcs - 80 each. They're 24 hours lasting, liquid to matte lipsticks & high pigmented.I got three shades which are Pink Velvet, Cashmere and Salem.

Check them out on Facebook & on Instagram:

The lipsticks comes in a pretty girly glam floral red box with flowers printed on top and the box has a metallic matte finish.At the back of each box has each color shade labels which indicates "Makeup for Unicorns" plus the ingredients and the name of the specific shade next to the bar code label.

Once you open each box you'll eventually see the lipsticks packed inside with a cut out card positioned on the right side which helps secure each lipsticks stay still inside the box. Plus on the bottom has the name shades of the liquid matte lipsticks.

The actual lipsticks comes in a see through semi plastic glass containers with a glam red cap.

You can already see the actual color of each lipsticks and each shade names indicated at the bottom.

I like the fact that the liquid lipsticks can stand alone on my table which I like so it won't just roll off by itself.

Each liquid lipsticks comes with sponge applicator, the applicator itself is not too big and not too small just the right size which I like about it because it doesn't make the product spill when you put back on the cap on. 

SWATCHES

From the darkest shade which is called "SALEM" it's a combination of brown/ish tones with minimal earthy brown. For the lightish shade that I got which is "CASHMERE" it has a pink and blue under tone to it but a little nude finish to it but doesn't come too dark but in between. The last shade which is "PINK VELVET" is a blu/ish pink undertone and has a bright pink finish. 

I notice that the liquid matte lipsticks has a smooth formula , not too dripping water/y at all. Plus I made a drying time test to check and see how fast does these lipsticks take time to dry. Approximately it dried up to 5 seconds. That was fast enough for me because the shades are very pigmented and matte finish. 

I also made a smudging wipe off test and I just used my regular cleansing wipe to see of they come off easily. After wiping about a few times, I have to say that the staying power of these lipsticks are hard to wipe off. It stained my skin as you can see on the photo below.

 

Now to give it a final verdict which is to test it on my dry lips, and yes I do have dry crack/y lips:

1st Color Swatch "CASHMERE"

2nd Color Swatch "PINK VELVET"

3rd Color Swatch "SALEM"

MY OBSERVATION:
- The first observation is for the application I mentioned a while that I like the applicator because its in the right size for apply the lipstick and yes it is, because I have more control with the product like lining my lips before filling the entire lips. 
- Next, I noticed that the formula was super smooth on my dry crack/y lips which didn't give me a hard time applying it all over my lips.
- I also noticed that when I missed a spot on my lips like a tiny one, I re-apply the lipstick and it didn't dry that much which blended in well before the actual drying time.
- It has that sweet minimal scent but not too much at all.
- I noticed also that once it gets to it's point of drying it has that chalky feeling when rubbing my lips together.
- Ii feels light on my lips not too heavy at all. 
- Each shades are very pigmented.
- Lastly I thought that the lightest shade which was CASHMERE would give me a problem with regards to the appearance on my lips because it is dry and crack/y and my lips are the worst when it comes to light nude shades but I was really impressed that the color blended well on lips.Little cracks are seen but not too much. For the "PINK VELVET" which is a bright pink/y shade made my teeth appear one shade whiter and few cracks seen on my lips. Lastly for the darker shade which is "SALEM", the color is stunning when my lips are stretched out on a smile but when it's naturally relaxed or still I could see the cracks on my lips.    

Next observation was I tried the wiping method and it was a little too difficult for me to wipe off the product on my lips because it is smooth and matte but once you try to wipe it off you'll find the tiny bits of the liquid lipstick product transferred on the wet wipes. It's tiny bits, kind of rubber/y thing. Plus the darker shade which was "SALEM" stained my lips.

FINAL VERDICT:

- I like the fact that the price for a replica class A High end is much affordable to buy.

- I like everything about how it is made that comes in a sleek standard glass plastic type lip gloss container and has each specific shade names on the bottom.

- I did not have any allergic reactions while applying this onto my lips plus I like that it works just fine with my dry crack/y lips with the light colors, but what concerns me is the darkest color which was salem I was little worried because it made my dry crack/y lips a bit noticeable but not to be judge mental, maybe I need to exfoliate my lips more and take good care with so that it may work better to my lips.

- It did stain a little bit onto my lips so I had a hard time wiping it off with my facial wipes, so I recommend removing it properly with any cleansing oil like I have which is my Biore Cleansing Oil and it instantly removed the entire lip product off my lips.

- Before ending this review to rate this pretty Liquid MAtte Lipsticks i'd give it a 7/10 because it works just fine for me plus Its much affordable to buy ^_^

Well I hope you all enjoyed reading my review and swatch about this replica of the Lime Crime Velvetines Liquid Matte Lipsticks. Feel free to comment down below for any concerns. Other than that,

Till next time as always Take care & "simply love life always"

Affordable Lipsticks to Share

Hello everyone! It's me Joanna and I'm back again to share some lip products that I recently purchased from a online shop called sissyshoppe you can find them on instagram and facebook as well https://www.facebook.com/SissyShoppe/ . I purchased ten (10) items in total plus sis Gail was kind enough to give me 1 freebie which is a revlon lipstick.

Before getting to the lipsticks itself by the way these are Singapore Made Class A High end Replica's but they're safe to use and well tested already. okay? So some of you may be wondering why did I get them instead of the original ones? It is because I am a budget freak if you all know (hehehe kuripot in short pero semi lang po haha! LOL!) but honestly I got these babies instead of the original ones it is because they are much affordable and budget friendly and also has a lot of good positive comments. And I'd love to give it a try and I think there's nothing wrong to try out new things right? But it doesn't mean that I don't like the original ones, of course I love them too but I'm on a low budget and needed to find much affordable lipsticks for myself. So feel free whether you like the original high end ones or the Class A replica's but be sure to read the positive comments before purchasing them and testing them out for yourself, it's a safe advice for all my readers out there okay? :)

Wew! Now that was a long intro.. But anyways this is my 4th time purchasing at the sissyshoppe  sothey have my full trust when it comes to affordable high end makeups. Moving on I got 3 Lime Crime Velvetines Liquid Matte lipsticks , 3 Menow Matte Kissproof Soft lipstick , 3 Gambattista Valli lipsticks and 1 Mac Matte Lipstick.  For each swatches and reviews of the lipsticks will be on a separate blog review right after this one so all of you may take a closer look how each lipsticks will be reviewed by yours truly ^_^ 

But before going to the for the Lime Crime Velvetines Lipsticks each cost Php 150.00 each and the Menow Matte Kissproof Soft Lipstick cost Php 150.00 each and for the MAc Gambattista Valli Lipstick each cost Php 100.00 and lastly the MAc Matte lipstick cost also Php 100.00 each. Plus my the shipping off to Legazpi City Albay and yes it's provincial only cost me Php 100.00 only. I was happy with every purchased I made because I purchased them on February 5 and estimated date of shipment was on the 10th and got these babies on the 12th of february.

Sigma Warm Neutrals Palette | Review & Swatch

 Hello everyone! Currently I made a new tutorial and it was the Warm Neutral Halo Eye Makeup and for the eyeshadows I used the Sigma Warm Neutrals  Palette. I got this from a online shop on instagram from @NU_U_BYJC owned by Miss Jacklyn Chong. She has Zoeva Brushes , palettes and her new product which are body scrubs. So go check her out on instagram and please say hi for me because she super kind to show me proof how the actual palette looks like when we had a conversation on instagram :) 

I like the fact that when  I got the palette it was securely wrapped in bubble wrap and has her business card made out of high quality plastic which is super formal.

The palette comes in a white chic hard cover with Sigma's logo on the front and the name of the palette itself on the middle bottom plus the collection name of the palette: 

MORE INFO:

*Product name: Warm Neutrals

*Brand name: Sigma

*Net Weight: 0.43 oz / 12 g

*How much did you purchase this? Php 2,000.00 only (shipping also included)

*Price of the Palette on the Website: $39.00 approximately Php 1,850.00 only 

(no shipment included yet)

On the side also indicates the name of the palette and sigma's logo and website:

While on the back portion it indicates each shades of the eyeshadows and names of each shadows. And also it has the ingredients of the shadows and the Net wight and where it is made and a bar code as well.

The actual palette comes in a black chic high quality palette with Sigma's Hologram logo on the front of the palette itself and has sigma's name written at the background and its kind of written with a semi matte - shine finish which I like how they created the palette.
By the way the palette is a bit rectangular shaped small in real life but not too small but it can fit inside your purse if your using this palette on your everyday basis or on the go.

Miss Jacklyn was so kind to give me a freebie soap which I'm excited to try out for myself :) Thanks again Miss Jacklyn :)

 

As I was saying a while ago, the palette comes in a rectangular shaped palette:

On the back portion of the actual palette also indicates the names of each shadows:

The palette inside has a mirror for easier point of view to see while applying these shadows, plus the eyeshadows are stunning while looking at it I just couldn't take my eyes off of each eyeshadows.

Before you can work with the shadows it has a hard plastic cover to protect the shadows from getting damaged and falling all over the place of the shadows powder: 

Here's a close up look and each names of the eyeshadows , I already indicated the names for the shadows in the photo:

Before proceeding to the swatches of each shadows I noticed that there are (5) five matte shadows and (7) shimmer shadows in the palette. 

SWATCHES:

1st Row:

2nd Row:

3rd Row:

MY OBSERVATION:

* I noticed that each shadows are very pigmented and bold in color. 

* For the matte shadows like Oyster Sand, Sugar Milk, Cinnamon, Innocent and Cozy

the colors are bold and no powder/y fall outs at all. 

* For the shimmer/y shadows Mild Mannered, Dove, Fawn, Russet, Balanced, Optimistic and Warm Stone, I noticed they are shimmery but no fall outs either while for Optimistic and Warm Stone has a mixed of gold shimmers in it but less fall outs. Each color are super pigmented with one swatch and also bold in color. 

* After swatching each shadows I put a little test to check and see how the eyeshadows can stay with just wiping them off with a cleansing wipe, and it nearly wiped off the entire pigment of the eyeshadows but it's still there though. So for the longevity to make the shadows last you to build up the intensity and lock it with a setting spray for more lasting shadows. 

MY FINAL VERDICT:

Overall I love the palette and how it came with its unique palette and  eyeshadow colors and names. I love how each shadows are pigmented and I can build the opacity of shadows. The colors are great for any looks like for natural every day makeup look and more smokey effect also. I don't seem to give this review a negative comment because the palette works perfectly for myself for creating looks that i am going for. Before ending my review I made a makeup tutorial with this palette and its the "Warm Neutral Halo Eye Makeup Tutorial" you can check that out down below and click to watch:

Plus here's are some photos that I've taken with using the shadows :


I think it's about it see you all on my next review :) Till next time as always Take care & "simply love life always"
