Dear My Wish Lips-Talk - Etude House OR203

A lipstick is a woman's friend.I have always known this, seeing my mother and other female friends apply this on their lips for a touch of color.For some reasons, it was just recently when I have started to embrace my more feminine side-meaning the habit of using beauty products.I have started with sunscreen,lip balms and bb cream and just recently, my new found interest for lipsticks.So after scouring the internet for clues and ideas, I settled with a Korean lipstick.So here is an Etude House Dear My Wish Lips TalkAfter some months of using this product from Etude House, I can freely share to you my independent review and experience.:)

I requested a colleague to purchase this for me for free when she went to Korea a few months ago.:)I believe that prices are way better there than in the Philippines and not to mention you can be sure that you buy original products.( I am not discounting the fact that we have a lot of legitimate sellers online cause I also buy korean Cosmetic products from reputable online sellers of korean Cosmetics)Anyway, moving on to the review.:)

I got this in the shade OR203 and I must say that this is a beautiful, orange-ish/peach-ish/pomelo-ish shade (sorry I am bad at describing colours, just see for yourself):)Luckily still kept this slightly crumpled box just so you can see the packaging when purchased:)Such girly designs,noh?

Just look at how cute the box and the lipstick container when it comes to design.Correct me if I'm wrong but I the packaging of this Dear My Wish Lips Talk range reminds me of the container of the Dear My Blooming Lips line, although there are noticeable differences.

I like cute stuff, but not a big fan of pink themes.:)But still thumbs up because the lipstick has a very nice color payoff:)Just take a look at the lippie bullet when the cap is removed.

Pretty color,right?

So, here are some lip swatches for you guys:

My bare lips(excuse me for the hideous pimple scar)

Swatched once-just look how pigmented it is.:)

 The Dear My Wish Lips-Talk - Etude House OR203 has a really good color payoff.The color when worn is a bit the eye-catching sort for me, like it is screaming "Hey,you!Look at my lips!

 Moisturizing?Yep,it deserves 4/5 for me because my lips felt a little dry upon application.But I guess this is something that a good 'ol lip balm cannot address.

Color Payoff?For me it deserves a 5/5 since it is such a beautiful,feminine colour that can brighten your face even if you have very minimal makeup.

Staying Power?It lasted 3-5 hours for me because I usually remove my makeup whenever I finish my part-time job.So I should say that it deserves  a 3.5/5 because it is quite long-lasting and has minimal fade out.

So there you have it, a very nice lippie product from Etude House.If I got the budget again, I will try the other color variants.

Thanks for reading!

3 Pc Holiday Makeup Brushes from SUESH

This is going to be my first ever review on this blog.Allow me to share my independent thoughts about a set of brushes from the brand SUESH which is their 3pc Holiday Brush Set.Note:This is not a sponsored review.

This parcel arrived today, 2/11/2015 after I paid for this set plus the shipping fee yesterday,2/10/2015.It's a quick transaction and delivery for me considering the fact that I reside in CAR.Great Job SUESH and Xend!

Inside this parcel is my properly packed order (in bubble wrap):a pouch and the the three brushes from SUESH.

Really cute and handy!Just the right size.

You can be sure that SUESH individually wraps the brushes as they really are unused and brand new.Here are the cute babies of this set.(Sadly, I already removed the plastic covering from two of the brushes in this photo,anyways:()

Moving on, the 3pc Holiday Makeup Brush Set has 3 essential pieces that busy gals like me would prefer.Borrowing the description from the SUESH website:

"The most basic brush set for the face for beginners. Includes a Powder brush:for over-all powder application on face; Angled blush brush: apply blush like a pro with the angled feature. Foundation brush: this dome shaped and flat shaped brush can blend foundation flawlessly. Hair: Korean Taklon Hair"

Now let us have a look at each of the brushes in the set.

 THE POWDER BRUSH

The brush is not as dense as I have expected, but boy, this brush is really soft and efficient in picking up the powder pigment .Applying the powder all over your face with this brush is very easy and not to mention, the bristles do not prick my face.I must say, I have a possible candidate to replace my old buddy, ELF Powder Brush for powder setting.

THE ANGLED BRUSH

 In my opinion, this brush is a little bit more dense than the powder brush.I think it's perfect for applying the blush this way because you can control the amount of powder.If you are someone like me who prefers a light application of color to my cheeks, you will appreciate this brush.I just wonder though,if it can also be used to contour?Hmm Not a fan of contouring but that is something that I still have to test later on.

THE FOUNDATION BRUSH

This is my favorite brush of the three because it is the cutest of them all:) When I first touched the bristles of this brush, I can't help myself but stroke it several times afterwards.There is just something about it that I cannot fully describe.

You know, that feeling is like the combination of smooth and soft.I have not tested it's performance with foundation, only with my BB Cream, and I must say it can even out the cream all over the face.I have always utilized my fingertips to apply creams evenly, but the use of the brush provided almost the same quality of application for me.

 I really like this set not only because they are affordable at PHP 250 (exclusive of the P90 shipping fee),but also because they are compact and handy.The wooden handle and the black metal ferule of each brush screams quality and will make you think twice that I ordered and bought this set for just 250 Php.
May I also mention that the brushes have minimal shedding(just a hair or two) when I first washed them.So I was no less happier about my purchase.

This makeup brush set is satisfactory for a person who is on the go like myself.I am a minimalist in the sense that I am satisfied to use just BB Cream/CC Cream and setting powder for my everyday look so I would prefer to have these tiny friends around, who will not consume so much space in my bag.

 Just look at how petite and cute they are beside my blue Pilot G-tec!Really, I cannot ask for more.

To sum it up, this 3pc Holiday makeup brush set is a must-have if you are a makeup newbie or a busy body who would like to bring around her beauty tools for quick touch ups.Due to this experience, I agree with those who say that SUESH brings quality makeup brushes minus the hefty price.

So if you want to make your own purchase, you may visit any of the SUESH show areas in Metro Manila (and sadly I do have very rare opportunities to pay them a visit myself due to the distance) 

or you can do it my way and purchase online here although you just have to shoulder the courier's fee.May I just mention that Sheryl Kim of SUESH promptly responds to my email containing my payment details.Thanks Ma'am!

So thank you for reading.I hope you liked my review.Until next time!
