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 !

REVIEW : MAC Sheen Supreme Lipstick in Blossom Culture

Hi beauties ~

Today i want to do a  review about Mac Sheen Supreme lipstck in Blossom Culture, as i have already mentioned it on the last post. This one i brought from Singapore few months ago, cost about S $29 or IDR 255.200 rupiah. I was looking for any dupes of NARS velvet matte lip pencil in Bolero (you can see the color swatch here ) because the price is much higher than MAC's. And i saw the same coral colour but in warmer tone at MAC  in  SEPHORA store.

From MAC website :

"Combining the colour impact of a Lipstick with the shine sheen of a Lipglass, Sheen Supreme creates the perfect hybrid - with no compromise. Lightweight, non-sticky, slick to apply and comfortable to wear. This is a must-have for all those who have craved this kind of fusion ''

So , as i can tell the colour is coral-orangey, pigmented as well as the other MAC lipsticks. There are some fine gold glitters on the colour. But most people reviewed the same lipstick and said that it was pink colour with coral hint. The website also said the same. When i swatched it, the colour is definitely orange. But it turned to pink when i captured my lips with camera! confuse,huh? (by the way sorry for the very light lightning ,in case you can't notice any difference on before-after pics)

The texture is creamy with glossy finish  (like a lipbalm) and glides smoothly on my lips.  I find this lipstick is moisturizing, but not very moisturizing. If you have very dry lips, you still have to put your lipbalm first before application.  I'm glad because this is my first purchasing of MAC and the result is good.

The packaging is classy yet elegant. But its quite hard to open the cap, i'm afraid it will ruin the lipstick itself if i push it too hard. The smell is kinda vanilla-ish, but its not a problem for me. This lipstick lasts on my lips about 4-5 hours and the glitters still remain on my lips after the colour was gone.

Here's my review pictures :

Pros
Lovely coral colour , natural at the same time
Moisturizing
Lightweight
Elegant packaging
Lasts quite long (4-5 hours)

Cons
Hard to remove the cap
The price maybe a little expensive for some people

Rating : 4.5/5
Will you repurchase it ? Maybe , in another colour.
Overall , this lipstick is great for those who want to grab the same texture as lipbalm but more pigmented colour, as this is wearable for any event. The moisturizing formula may not fullfill for those who want to 'heal' chapped and very dry lips but you can apply lipbalm first then start the application. The coral colour is beautiful on my lips especially with the glossy finish. But make sure the lipstick is not ruined by the way when you try to open the cap.XD

Im craving for the another corals. So don't try to stop me , will you? ;)


see you next time in another review !
