Kleancolor Madly Matte Lipsticks

Surprise, surprise! Here's another lipstick related post because you all know how much of a lipstick fan I am. These lovely tubes were generously sent to me by Miss Suzanne Africa of Suzanne's Emporium. I received these babies during a really dark time in my life (chos!) and they really did serve as a bright spot during that time. It's my first time using anything from the KleanColor brand. These particular lipsticks are from the Madly Matte line.
"The Madly Matte Lipstick is a perfect collection of bold, vivid lip colors with a marvelously matte finish. Lipsticks provide long-wearing comfort without drying lips or feathering. KleanColor presents a grand collection featuring a wide assortment of colors, ranging from muted neutrals to vivacious plums and everything else in between to help you achieve the most dramatic and versatile looks. Color stays true and pout is left incredibly sublime and enviable." - Taken from the website.
I was sent two shades = Fandango & Rosewood. Rosewood is a medium brick red shade with slight brown undertones. Fandango is a bright cool purple shade. What do you think about the shades I got? Tell me in the comment box below.

Review : Mini Egg Sponge

Beauty Blenders  are one of the most talked about makeup tools that I've read about. I've been seeing them everywhere! On my recent trip to Singapore I stopped by a Sephora branch to check some out on numerous occasions. I just couldn't bring myself to shell out nearly $25 (SGD) on a sponge that I would need to chuck out eventually. Right? So till I have enough guts to purchase an original one, I'll gladly settle for a more affordably priced one that I got sent for review purposes! *teehee*
What : Mini Egg Sponge a.k.a. Beauty Blender Replica Where : Prinsesitasarahcosmetics (Instagram) Price : P98 * Sponsored by Miss Sarah
Pros:
Affordable. Available locally. Soft with just enough springiness to help blend out my foundation beautifully. Doesn't bleed out its pink dye when being washed. Dries fast. Travel friendly. Versatile - I use this to blend out both liquid, cream and powder products!
Cons:
A bit too small for my face, if it were larger then it would be perfect. Tears easily when you wash it too vigorously (like I do!)

Review : Wet N Wild Silk Finish Lipsticks

Hello everyone! I'm back with a new review on the Wet N Wild Silk Finish Lipsticks! The ones I have are in the new sleeker packaging (the old one came in silvery tubes) and I'm really excited to share them with you because they're a nice break away from my usual demi matte - matte lipsticks. Let's get started, shall we? What : Wet N Wild Silk Finish Lipsticks Where : Prinsesitasarahcosmetics (Instagram) Price : P110/tube *sponsored by the lovely owner Miss Sarah I usually go for matte formulations because I don't like having to retouch my lipstick throughout the day but sometimes (especially now that it's summer!) matte formulas can get a bit too dry for my liking so these silk finish lipsticks are just the thing to chuck into my purse this summer! Pros : * Contains vitamins A & E plus aloe vera. It also has macadamia nut oil for even more hydration. Definitely something good for your lips! * No taste or smell which is always a good thing for the more sensitive makeup enthusiasts. * Glides on easily, doesn't tug on your lips and doesn't settle into fine lines. * Good color pay off which is buildable. * Comfortable to wear for longer periods. * The darker shades leave a nice "stain" effect on the lips which I like. * Affordably priced! Cons : * The clear plastic packaging top has to be lined up "just right" to get it completely shut which can be such a hassle if your in a hurry. * Like most Wet N Wild lipsticks, the upper top half doesn't completely retract into the tube and I've ended up nicking a few of the lipsticks! Aside from the few cons, there isn't much more to say about these except that I'd suggest them to those on a budget but would still like to try out something new... Now check out the swatches! My personal favorites are Retro Pink & Blind Date. Have you heard of or tried these lipsticks before? What are your thoughts about the Wet N Wild Silk Finish Lipsticks? *winks*
