lip wear – mizarwen

So it’s date night.
What do you hope will last until the very end of the night?

For me, it’s my lipstick.

I’m very conscious whether it still on my lips. I don’t know if you have a habit to Go to the restroom and pretend that you take a leak but actually you want to touch up your makeup and fix everything especially your fading lipstick. I sometimes do that. Heck, I’ve been doing it even though I have a date with my husband. I still want to look decent in front of him because it’s a special night and we didn’t do this very often. Well, from what I remember this is the first time of our 5 years marriage, I felt at ease; not thinking too much about my daughter and stress-free while dining out with my husband. I was thankful that my mother-in-law gave us a chance to have our special night while she looked after my daughter. So yes, I put that aside from my mind for a few hours and spent the moment with my husband.

I had a great dinner last Sunday night and this happened.

My lipstick was gone. One of the pet peeves that always happened to me; maybe to all of you that’s not applying a long-lasting lipstick.

I wanted to do fix this photo with my very handy app, Makeup Plus but what stopped me from that was there was a question popped into my head at that time ”wheres the originality of the day you cherished if you tweak this picture?“

I sighed many times looking at this picture and reminded myself that I will use my other lip tint I bought the other day.

It’s Peripera Ink Velvet AD.

Behind the story

Back in November last year, I was into watching mukbang on Youtube and I was stumbled into this one Korean lady that eats a lot. She has this lipstick that won’t fade whenever she eats. It made me want to buy that kind of lipstick and how desperate I was at that time? I private messaged her on Instagram. It took me like a month or so to get a reply from her. It’s this lip tint and I straight away ordered it.

THE REVIEW

Package quality

It came with a box. At first when I saw this cute tiny bottle I thought does it has a dropper like all the serums have or it is just made like that? I mean, if the applicator is like a dropper I couldn’t imagine how I use this lip tint if I bought it. So I read its info and found out that the applicator looks like any lip tint applicator that I had before. You need to twist the dropper-like-cap to open it and I appreciate that the tiny bottle is made of glass.

Performance

When I applied this on my lips, I could feel the texture a little thick but wasn’t too thick that it wouldn’t glide on the lips. I could smell the cherry scent and it didn’t overwhelm me so that’s a plus point.

The color? It made me gasp when I first dabbed it on my lips. It looks crayon-y and I was afraid that it’d turned out neon-y when I wear it. However, as I smacked my lips to make the tint spread evenly, I was surprised that the shade looks natural and immediately fall in love with the color.

How lasted it gets? I’m impressed with it but not too overly impressed. I think it depends on how you wear this lip tint. I’m sure the color would survives through the night maybe a little wear off, if you apply it fully. I like to apply at the center of lips, smack it, dabs again on the center of my lips and spread it to make it a gradations effect and look natural. Although I applied like that, I could see the tint was still there.

It gave me a matte finished and if you read my last review on other product, you already know that I have dry lips. This tint didn’t make my lips so dry after the wear. I could see the tint went into my lips creases but when you eat your food (perhaps, the meal I had last Monday was greasy)you wouldn’t see the creases effect after that. It isn’t too big deal since it isn’t that visible when you are standing in front of me. So that’s another plus point I gave to the product.

Product’s rate? 3.5/5

Would I purchase it?

Yes. This line came with 10 colors and I chose Sparkling Pink #09. It seems like this is the only pink color I see in the advert. I’m hoping that they have many shades of pink in this line. So next time, I would purchase another color in red just because of the performance and the color is so amazing. I’d like to display this on my vanity table and have fun playing with the colors 🙂

I’m a woman that loves to wear light makeup. My recently go-to makeup is just my Maybelline Superstay Lip Matte, primer and compact powder from the same brand. That’s it. These are the things I applied to cover my flaws and to make myself a little decent whenever I go out. Simple? You can say that. I don’t like wearing heavy makeup. The only time that I have to wear the heaviest is when there’s a wedding function to attend or during Eid festive.

However, I just don’t stick to one product. Unless they make me look super cute XD Especially, the lip wear; I like to try new things. If I see the color suits me, I won’t think twice to buy it. I’d give a bonus point if the colour stays longer and won’t dry out my lips. Hence, I bought some product to try. See my previous purchased here.

So on today’s post I’d like to review my first impression on Wanna Some Candy Lip Tint Balm #Guava from MISSHA. They have 5 colors to choose from:

01 Good morning apple – vivid red color + sweet apple scent
02 Berry awesome – MLBB rose color + sweet strawberry scent
03 How guava – trendy pink color + energetic guava scent
04 Orange – hot orange color + sweet citrus scent
05 Don’t peach me – romantic coral color + sweet peach scent

Fruity scent fruit tint balm

For the colour, I chose Guava, just because it looks natural to me; not too vibrant, not too nude. So from the first impression when I opened the plastic package, I realize the name doesn’t matches with the one from the advert. Instead of How Guava, the cap says Guava. For a minute, I was confused with what I see. I mean, it could’ve been could be from a different collection or the seller gave me the wrong order. But I went with my good intuition that maybe Guava is also called How Guava.

Then when opened the lip balm’s cap, I’m surprised to see lip balm’s hexagonal tip. I don’t remember if I possessed any lip wear that has a tip like this let alone from basic wear like a lip balm. I feel so fancy 🙂

However, that’s early for me to judge. I still need to try it on my lips. The advert says that I could try the gradiation technique. Since I look ugly (look like a fat zombie if I try that technique) I skipped it and fully applied it on my lips. It glides nicely and evenly. The color as you can see here are so pretty and vivid. I look lively and fresh. I noticed it creates a glassy look on my lips which the look is still new to me and I could whiff a little hint of guava scent when I wore it.

Also, the nice thing about this lip balm, I guess because it’s a balm (duh), my lips still feel moist even after I wiped it off. I always hate the feeling of chappy dry lips after wiping off any lipstick but with this one I didn’t experience it once.

Any cons? It’s not long-lasting. It tinted your lips but it won’t stain your lips after a few hours, not even an hour. It is also transferable and for the price, BND15 is a little pricy. I just like the colour!

I only recommend this lip balm if you only looking for a quick on-the-go wearing. It fits for everyday use. And I will choose this over any lip balm, still. Hehe.

So guys, what’s your everyday lip balm?
