Review: BYS Longwear Lipstick in Blushed

BYS is an Australian brand which stands for BeYourSelf. It's said to be the number 1 budget makeup in Australia. This lipstick has 3.5 grams of product on a black twist tube packaging with a transparent cap. I got this as present from my sister and I have quite a few more BYS products to review soon to those interested. If you want to learn more about this product, you can check out their website.

I love this lipstick because it's very moisturizing and pigmented. You can build it up if you want a more intense color. It has a satin finish which glides on smoothly on every application. The shade is really pretty and a lovely color to wear for a polished look even if you have very little makeup. The flash on my camera washed the color of this lipstick but the shade is berry-ish in person :D. This feels light on the lips and doesn't have an unpleasant taste or smell which is actually good. I really like this lipstick and I will continue using it. Although it isn't as long wearing as it claims to be but that's alright. 

PROS: 

Pretty shade

Glides on easily

Pigmented 

Buildable 

Tasteless and odorless

CONS:

Twist tube is a little loose

Not available locally

My verdict: 4 STARS

Would I recommend? Yes

Overall this lipstick performed more than what I expected. I would repurchase if available locally.

Lipstick Review: Lancome Color Design All Done Up

I am so in love with this lipstick ever since I got it! I have had this for months now but only used it a month ago when I was out of town. I honestly didn't want to use it because it's just so pretty and only wanted to keep it LOL. I bought this from a friend who was kind enough to sell it to me for a friendly price (Thanks Zsa Zsa!) :D so I'm not sure how much this costs in the market now. 

The shade is a mixture of fuchsia, berry, and mauve which I believe is a perfect shade for any skin tone. It's a cream lipstick that glides on and easy to apply. Pigmentation and opacity is just amazing. You can just dab it on your lips and the color will pick up. It has a medium coverage which you build up for a full coverage without looking like you layered a lot! The staying power is really good because I don't need to retouch after 8 hours.

I swatched this once when I took the photo and look at how rich the color is. It's very creamy and doesn't look dry. You can wear this alone or with a gloss on top of it. I love how comfortable it feels on the lips because it's totally weightless. What's perfect about it is that it doesn't have any scent and it's tasteless so you'll hardly notice that you have it on.

This lipstick brightens my face no matter how simple my makeup looks. I love wearing because the shade doesn't scream pink but makes you look so feminine. This is my most favorite lipstick (for now). It's a 5 STAR quality lipstick which every girl should have!

Maybelline Color Sensational Lipstick in Coral Sunrise

I have another review for you all on Maybelline Color Sensational Lipstick in Coral Sunrise. I've had this for awhile now but used it last because I really liked the pigmentation of this lipstick when I swatched it from the store and I saved it for last! I like that the orange shades has orange packaging same with reds, pinks, and neutrals. I think it's a great way to know which shades you want to look for without checking out the bottom of the lipstick.

I have used a few Maybelline lipsticks but this line is really amazing and what I like more because it's not too glossy, not too creamy, and there are so many other colors to choose from. I have the moisture extreme lipstick but that one is a little creamy for me. I'm in love with the pigmentation and the new shades and its consistency. This one has a few shimmers and although I am not really a huge fan of shimmer lipsticks, I just like this one because they don't up much. It's also very moisturizing and glides on the lips really well. If you check out the photo above it looks glossy and I used this alone. The application is even and you can build it up if you want a more dramatic coral lip. I definitely give this lipstick 5 STARS!!!

I posted a photo of me wearing this lipstick on my ELF Essential Duo Powder Eye Shadow in Mocha Swirl review for anyone who wants to check it out. I hope you like this review and please do shoot me a question or two if you have any. 

Have a happy weekend and happy fathers day to my dad and all the dads in the world too! :D
