Perk's New Discovery! Nude versus Brown: Lip shades Battle



I'm an adventurous person. I enjoy ordering foods that not familiar with me, drinking liquids that the names seem to be exotic to my ears and trying out things that ordinary people would rather stay out of it.

That's why when I received brown lip cream and nude lipstick, I was overwhelmed. 


It is not every day that you encounter a woman wearing a dark brown lipstick at work or a lady that talks to her clients with nude lipstick.

I picked these two unusual shades so let me know which fits better to me.

**Sleek Matte Me (HazelNut Crush 1162)



This is the first time that I used a brand called Sleek. I'm not familiar with it that's why I'm hesitant to apply it. Honestly, my lips are not compatible with matte lipsticks. :(

Likes
~Color: I know it’s too dark and it makes me look old but the shade actually works for me.
~Application: Once is enough. It usually stays for a couple of hours.
~Packaging: Very simple. Not too elaborative.

 
Dislike
~Stain. Maybe because it is a tint so it usually leaves teeth stain.




**Maybelline Colorsensational Rebel Bloom (700 Barely Bloomed)


This brand is one of my favorite make-up lines. Most of their products are compatible with my skin and other than that the prices are budget friendly. This lip color was given to me as pasalubong and I was truly excited because it was my first time to own a nude lipstick!

Likes
~Texture. I love that it is creamy and works well with my chapped lips.
~Packaging. The pastel container is good for the eyes and the lid is easy to open as well.
~Applicator. I use this as a base before I apply the Pink Sugar Lip Tint and I actually like the tenderness of my lips after.


With Pink Sugar Cheek and Lip Tint
Dislike
~Color. I was expecting that somehow it has shade but it is totally nude.




Which of these two suits me better? Would love to hear your thoughts if you tried these two lip shade!

Let Your Lips Do the Talking

There are so many beautiful shades now that choosing between lip gloss, lip tint, and lipstick is quite difficult.  

This is the first time that I made a lip swatching and I had so much fun with newly discovered brands!
 

***Maxfactor X Lip Gloss

I bought this two years ago from a BDJ event but I forgot how much was it as well as the color shade. I'm currently using it in before I apply the matte lip crayon.
 
 

Like: 
~Color: I'm not a fan of pink but I find this shade alright.
~Long lasting: It can last for a couple of hours even when I eat. 

Dislike:
~Smudge: There would always have that smears on my teeth.  

 
***Pink Sugar x Project Vanity Matte Lip Crayon (Ready In Five)

 

I've been hearing about this from Miss Liz, the founder of Project Vanity and I was very excited when I received one from the loot bag that I got from her 9th year anniversary. 
 
 

Like: 
~Packaging: I instantly became a fan! It is chic and ideal for every ladies!
~Shade: My kind of pink! Not too dark, not too light!

Dislike:
~Unsuitable: I like the color but sadly, it does not go well with my lips. It looked like dull to me. We were not compatible.

***Tony Moly Delight Tight (02)

 
 
This was a pasalubong straight from Korea, thank you Yrda!  I could check how much is it here but I'd rather not because this was given to me as a gift.



Like: 
~Scent: Aside from the heart-shaped cap which made me smile, the smell of it makes me feel good. It was sweet!
~Hue: I haven't tried it to my cheeks but the color of this tint combined well with a matte lipstick that I had. 
~Brush: I was gushing over the lip gloss brush which was soft and fast absorbent!

Dislike:
~Effect: It could not last long when applied like one to two hours only.

*** Flormar (Red Boston)


 
A lipstick brand that I encountered for the first time! I also received it with the loot bag from Project Vanity event.

Like: 
~Red: I'm not a fan of this lipstick shade yet I am in love with my lips whenever I applied this!
~Covering: The gold packaging was a good choice. It appeared to be sophisticated and expensive!

Dislike:
None. So far, this has been my favorite red lipstick! I love how it makes my lips stand out and it gives me stronger aura.
 
       

 

Special mention to Miss Deborah and Jhane, you are the best! Thank you for helping me out!
