Lip Products

(The colors in these pics are not so true to color due to the lighting, so try to go on their websites to see more accurate swatches)

So these are some of my favorite lip products. I have mostly natural colors except for a couple. Now I'm gonna tell you why I love them.


  • Revlon Beyond Natural Cream Lip gloss (Berry, Rosy) - they are super moisturizing! And like the name, yep, very natural! They give you a natural glow on your lips! So try them out when there is buy one get one free at the drugstores! The deals I found this week for Revlon Products: buy 1 get 1 50% off at CVS and Walgreens, and I think the buy 2 get 1 free is still going on at Ulta.
  • Chanel Levres Scintillante Glossimer (constellation) - super shimmery peachy pink. looks great on top of any other lip stick! I also have another color but that one doesn't have any sparkle in it... but constellation is a limited edition color... if you like it they still have something similar to it. It is a sticky formula, but I don't care! The colors are gorgeous and stay on quite long.
  • Givenchy Rouge Interdit Shine (19 very irresistible shine) - haha I love it because it's sparkly! the glitter in this color is soooooo awesome. I believe this color is a limited edition, and you can buy it (if not, the other shades) at Sephora.
  • MAC Pro Longwear Lustre Lipcolour (boss brown) - I am not a big fan of MAC lipglass somehow, I guess it's because I don't own enough to fall in love with them, but they do have lots of colors to choose from. Now this longwear one is my first longwear lip color, and this color is a bit darker than the ones I usually buy, but I am impressed! This shade makes me look a bit more mature, and stays on very well! It's a great helper when I am going to parties, weddings, which I would be drinking (I didn't mean alcohol, FYI) ... and I, personally, hate to touch up every single moment, then so it's very handy!
  • Revlon Matte Lipstick (nude attitude) - I LOVE IT. I have been looking for a nude shade that does not make me look dead! And I'VE FOUND IT! It conceals my super pigmented lips and gives me that non-deadly look. This color is from a new collection so it's kinda hard to find... I went to a few stores before I found it, but it's SO WORTH IT. Now I have to do smoky eyes because of this hahaha.
  • L'oreal Colour Richie (target red) - I only wore it once, because I am not so brave to wear red on a daily basis. This particular shade is only sold at target, which is the RED I have in mind, GORGEOUS. (I wore this to the Halloween party hosted by my boss, I was a ladybug)
  • Lorac Mocktail (guava tiki) - this is a cute color! It smells very good, not too sweet, and makes my lips feel GOOD. I like to use it alone or on top of other lip color.
  • L'oreal HIP Jelly Balm (succulent) - it smells like vanilla (to me, it does) and the color is a very cute pink! (and again, these products go on sale a lot, so, why not try them?)
  • Canmake lip concealer - this is a japanese drugstore product, very very cheap, but it is not sold in the United States unfortunately. I had a friend bought it for me from Taiwan, and this is very handy. Since I have very pigmented lips, a lot of colors don't show and just look like regular lipgloss, which is a waste. So I use this concealer which is made for the lips, then layer on the shade than I want, then the true color would show! Plus the spokesperson of this brand is a model from my favorite Japanese magazine VIVI, so it makes the brand more attractive!
Alright, I think I should stop right here. I have been babbling on for too long. If you think my posts get too long, let me know!
