Beauty Now and Next Lip Collection Review with Swatches


Christmas passed, but that doesn't mean gift giving is paused until next year. No, people still have occasions where in a special token is well appreciated. The product I'm going to review today is a perfect surprise for makeup lovers. I recently stumbled upon a great gift set in Watsons.  Most of us know that Watsons - a local drugstore which sells beauty,  medicine, food,  and many more - release perfectly affordable gift sets throughout the year. 

The Beauty Now and Next gift set contains 8 lippies all in all - 4 lipsticks and 4 lipglosses. It's very versatile because the colors have light pink to vampy red in it.  What's great about this set is it only costs 250 pesos. Certainly a cheap steal, right?  Plus,  if you prefer nudes,  they also have a set for those too. I bought this particular set because it has lipglosses.


The packaging of the lipsticks are not sturdy.  It kind of feels like a toy.  You have to be careful when twisting it because it gets stuck. In addition,  it does not have a great look all in all.


The lipglosses, on the other hand, I love.  It looks so cute with it's thin and small body. It's great to bring when traveling since it's very portable.  The twist cap is also very smooth unlike the packaging in the lipsticks.


For the product,  the lipsticks are quite the disappointment because it does not apply smoothly at all. The pigment is also not that high but you can work with it.  It's also not moisturizing and not drying too - just normal. However, it's matte and lasts about 5 hours. Not bad for the affordable price.  The lipglosses, on the other hand,  I can rave about them all day long.  I just love love how it feels on my lips. It's very moisturizing. Although,  it's not that pigmented. Both lippies are not transfer proof so that's a thing you can consider.

Verdict:

For 250 pesos, I can work with these lippies.  I love how affordable they are.  Although this set is not that above average, you can work with it.  If they release more colors in this set,  I will buy again because it's very affordable and I'm in love with their lipgloss. 

Ever Bilena (EB) Extreme Lipstick Review



If you've followed my posts, you'll know that I love lippies. I also believe in the trending quote "A girl can never have too many lipsticks". Thus, I present to you, my dear readers, another Ever Bilena lippie product review.


EB Extreme Lipstick has a distinct red body which is in all the color variations. Personally, I love the packaging because it looks really classy with its Marilyn Monroe red. However, It would have looked better if the body is matte like the one in EB matte lipsticks. Although, I do feel like they made the packaging glossy because of the product itself is in the glossy side of lipsticks.


I bought these two buy one take one for only Php 169.00. It's definitely cheaper than other well-known brands who also produce high quality lipsticks.


I have two colors: Hollywood Red and Bubblegum. The colors are really vibrant. A little goes a long way because it's highly pigmented. It's also moisturizing to the lips so you wouldn't be bothered all day. However, it does transfer so retouch is a must. Nevertheless, it's not drying to your lips making it great for retouch.

 



Verdict:

This is one of my favorite affordable lippies. Ever Bilena has done a great job in releasing great quality lipsticks that are worth your every penny. I would definitely buy again.

P.S. - I have a video of my top affordable lippies so far, feel free to check it out! xoxo

Shawill Vogue Noble Lipstick Review


Removing the cap, she slowly twist the tube and gently but swiftly swiped the product in her plump lips. And almost instantly, a vibrant color of her choice made her whole look complete.

And that's the power of lipstick.

Ahh if you've noticed, my make up obssession lately is focused on lipsticks. Ahem. Affordable lipsticks. I've been searching in malls for fab and worth it products that I can wear to accentuate my outfit. As they all say, a woman's best feature is her smile...pair it up with a fantabulous lipstick. Simple and nice trick if you don't have the money to buy extravagant jewelries. 


In this review I will be featuring the Shawill Noble Vogue, a non-matte affordable lipstick worth 128 pesos only. It has Vitamin E for moisturizing, water microspheres and steady color according to the packaging.








The packaging is simple, nothing too fancy. It has the common twist and cap design with the brand printed at the top. It twists smoothly, not like some affordable lippies that sometimes get stuck. The color variety they offer, on the other hand, is somewhat lacking. I've only seen 4-5 colors for this line in SM megamall and it ranges from different shades of pink to red. But I've seen their ig, this line actually has 9 colors with brown shades included. Plus, the colors are by numbers. Mine is 04 which is an orange-y red color. For the availability, you can check SM and Watsons for Shawill products. I bought this at SM Megamall.




My application went smoothly. I had no problems with it. It's very pigmented. Moreover, it does not have an overwhelming smell, rather kind of like sweet scented perfume which I'm in awe with. The lipstick do transfer so unfortunately it does not last that long. In my experience, it only lasted for two hours because I ate oily dishes and it wiped the product off. Also, it's not that light weight on the lips. But the good thing about this is it moisturizes your lips well, thus, you can just reapply all you want and it won't be drying to your lips.


Summary:
Price: 5/5
Packaging: 3/5
Availability: 5/5
Product: 4/5
Longevity: 2/5

Verdict:
I'm loving this product because of how affordable and pigmented it is. Although there is a problem with its longevity, I will still buy again. There's no problem in re applying due to the fact that it doesn't make your lips dry.



Love,
