REVIEW : CANMAKE Candy Wrap Lip

Hoola ~!

As you guys know, Canmake is a popular drugstore brand from Japan, known with their best-selling blushers (cheek duo/cream cheek). But today i want to review about their lipgloss, which is Canmake Candy Wrap Lip. I saw this lipgloss on Watsons Singapore, they were having discount. I need pink-coloured lipgloss because i have thrown the Etude one.(it has expired-lol) . So i had to buy the Canmake lip gloss while it was in discount. I also got attempted by the word 'candy'  :P . I chose 01 Sugar Love.

The lipgloss costs me S $12(normal price is S $16). There were like 6 colours at first but then they expand the colours until 12. You can check it here . By the way this lipglosses are already seen in Popteen magazine few times.

What it claims :



  • Colorful and sweet like candy.
  • Color looks the same on your lips as it does in the tube. With masses of beauty essence to moisturize your lips.
  • Vivid color x moisture retention.
  • Achieve vivid color and moisture simultaneously.
  • A moist finish, as though you have wrapped your lips in a colorful veil of moisture.
  • Restrained use of lamé and pearl.
  • A rich, jelly-like♪ finish, without being dazzling.
  • There’s no need to be worried about lamé particles making your lips feel rough or leaving a residue on your lips after  removing your make-up.
  • Smooth, non-sticky texture.
  • Contains a light-feeling oil that reduces the stickiness usually associated with lip gloss, achieving a light, smooth texture on application.
  • Just one coat will spread evenly over your lips.
  • Packed with moisturizing agents and beauty essence.
  • Moisturizing agents: Hyaluronic acid, Squalane, Honey and royal jelly extract

  • The lipglosses come in a plastic tube with a mettalic cap. Personally i love the packaging, The scalloped lace and the  flowers design make the packaging looks girly. It has a doe-foot wand applicator which makes application easier.

    The colour is just a medium sheer pink (it has NO SHIMMER in it).  It has jelly-like texture, so it feels creamy and a little bit sticky on my lips. The lipgloss is very moisturizing. I wore it once when my lips were dry (i forgot to bring lipbalm, so i just wearing lipgloss -,-) My lips are feeling moisturized when it had worn off.

    Staying power is about 2-3 hours (without drink/eat). The lipgloss doesn't have any scent. I wish it does have a scent like candy T.T.

    NOTE : My lips are already pigmented , so the colour doesnt show up too much...

    REVIEW : ETUDE HOUSE Look at My Lips Lipsticks

    Hello Guys !

    I just got back from getting sleepover at my cousin's house yesterday. As my apology for not blogging for a while , today i want to make a 3 posts in a row !

    First post is about Etude House with Look At My Lips series. I know most of people  have  known about this lipstick. But recently i've been wearing this 2 lipsticks a lot and i'm quite love it so i decided to review these.



    I got the lipsticks in #2 Runway Coral Orange and #3 Celeb Pop Pink. The normal price is IDR 100.000,-/ $10 (counter price). Luckily, there was promotion  few months ago where you can buy 3 products just  for IDR. 180.000,- / $18 so each product worth IDR 60.0000,- / $6 (Look At My lips lipstick, Look at My Eyes Eyeshadow, Juicy Pop Tube, Magic Tint Balm, Bee Happy Lip Balm) . I chose 2 lipsticks from Look at My lips and 1 eyeshadow from Look at My eyes (review coming soon!).

    The packaging is so-so, nothing special from it. It's just a pink metallic tube covered with hard plastic case. The cap unfortunately is always open itself especially the #3 one.

    The pigmentation is great. #2 is orange colour with a hint of coral. (okay this is the .....th i mention about coral lipstick. dont hate me will you ) i love this , it really suits  with my yellow skin tone. The shade is also wearable . #3 is a gorgeous pinkish-red colour. The colour is very bold, so if you want to achieve natural look, you can use the lipstick in the middle of your lips then spread the colour with your fingers.

    The lipstick glides smoothly on my lips. The texture is creamy. The formula is a bit drying, so i put lipbalm first before apply the lipstick. Staying power is not bad. But you have to reapply after drink/eat.

    Pros :
    Pigmentation great
    So many colors to choose
    Glides easily on lips 
    Affordable

    Cons :
    Have to reapply after eat/drink
    The formula is a bit drying 

    Rating : 3.5/5
    Would you repurchase? Nope , i will buy another lipsticks..
    Overall , i wouldnt reccomend to those who have chapped dry lips. What i love from these lipsticks are the  pigmentation. They. It has a matte finish but not drying at all.

    see you next time in another review !

    QUICK REVIEW : VICTORIA SECRET Love Spell Eau de Toilette

    Hello again ~

    Today i want to make this quick review before i study for my 2 last exams. As you know, Victoria Secret has opened their first store in Indonesia at Plaza Senayan few months ago. I was given one of their Eau de Toilette from my friend as my 17th birthday. Last year, i bought the body lotion in Love Spell. The sales lady mentioned it was the best selling fragrance from all. And i love it very much XD Luckily, my friend gave me the same fragrance >.<  Thanks my dear !

    The scent  is combination of cherry blossom and peach, that's what they say in the box. I don't like vanilla scented things or things that smell too sweet , and this has neither of those so i love it . The scent is not too powerful and great for summer. The lasting power is ok , it fade away after few hours. I always bring this everywhere since the size is 30 ml.

    Overall i love this scent, so i will repurchase once this one is empty.

    And you know what ? Victoria Secret has just released Love Spell as an Eau de Perfume ! I knew this from The Muse
