Solar Aura

 Hello,

I have been seeing this brand for a long time but I don't think I ever purchased anything from them until now...

It is Bell Aura del Sol sparkly shine lip oil in Solar Aura. There are two more shades available but this one looked the sparkliest so that was decided.

This is how this tube arrived and if you look closer there are two horizontal lines, one above vegan and one in the middle under sol. This is where the product is separating and the longer I have it, the worst it is getting. I hope this will not affect the product on the long run.


It has nice slanted applicator and it makes it for an easy application. It has no base color just million silver sparkles.  


Here it is noticeable just how shiny it gets and that there is no base color to tint the lips. I like wearing it alone or layer over some lip stains to add the glow.


It has a sweet bubblegum scent and I love the sparkles. It holds on for quite a while from 45 min to one whole hour and I don't apply whole lot.

My only concern is the separation in the tube, I am worried that it will go bad sooner than I can use it all up. It holds 10 ml of a product which will not go down fast.

Honey & Milk

 Hello,

today is the time for some honey & milk... 

It is A'pieu Honey & Milk lip oil. I was scared that the yellow base would give out some color but it is clear on the lips. Upon first opening it had a slight plastic scent, now I don't notice it, especially not when it is on the lips.


It has a pretty wide applicator (it looks like a duck foot ;) and a narrow opening because not a lot of product comes out. 

This oil is not super thin like a lot of oils nowdays, it has a thickness but it is not sticky. It just covers and hugs my lips, adds hydration and at first gives that mirror shine. It lasts for around 45 min and that is due to the thicker formula.


I like this oil but I would love it if they would add a pleasant scent and perhaps have it in some other sheer shades :)

Is it really Black Cherry?

 Hello,

how cute is this little guy? To me it looks like a little goblin with a blue hat going around being all happy :)


It is Tocobo Jucy Berry Plumping lip oil, mine is in Black Cherry shade but it looks more brown to me than deep cherry shade.


It has this silicone paddle to apply, it is nice if I apply it over some lipsticks because it is easy to clean, it carries a lot of product so one side is enough for my thinner lips.


I decided to try out a shade that is a bit more different from my recent picks and I decided that I don't have deep brown shade and I would like to see how it would turn out on me. I have to say that it is sheer but still packs some punch. Swatch was made only with half of applicator and it is still a lot and can you see this insane shine?
That is how it looks also on my lips, crazy shiny and I love that.
I am slightly less impressed by the tingle, there is plumping in the name but I did not expect such strong effect. This one has some serious burning and tingle and when it get to that point when I am about to wipe it off it starts fading. For me this is pretty strong and probably the strongest in my entire collection and I have over 300 lippies.


I like the cute packaging, shade is not too bad (I am experimenting with this one applying it over tints which are too bright or some lipsticks which are too pale), love the shine but the burning effect is almost too strong. I will wait to see if they will come out with some non burning ones and then I would get more shades.

Icy Glow Petal

 Hello,

my eyes caught this pretty gloss online and I just had to have it. I am a sucker for a glossy gloss ;)

It is new to me brand, Muzigae Mansion Icy Glow lip gloss in the shade Petal. The most pretty pink option :)


This one has a short and chubby applicator, it is soft and it disposes enough product. I first noticed unusual scent which is pretty green. It reminds me of a bouquet but mostly green stem juice. I am not hating but it is rather unusual.


Petal is the softest neutral but still a bit on the warm side pretty pink gloss. There is opacity and it applies very even. I was expecting streaks but it pleasantly surprised me.


This gloss makes me feel like a princess, I use it whenever I want a pretty pink lip to match my sweet persona ;)  I love wearing it and the longevity is pretty nice. I like it so much that I decided to get some more shades to play with ;)

Naked Lunch

 Hello,

I have been sitting on this little guy for a while now and it is time for it to see the world :)


It is single shadow from MAC in the super flattering shade Naked Lunch. I was influenced by my sister to buy it since she has it as well and it looked so pretty one her.


In the pan it looks like an every other cream shade, the sateen shine is somewhat hidden from view but once on the skin then it comes out to play.


I love the finish but one me it pulls a bit warmer than anticipated and if you know that I am not a fan of warm tones on my skin... 


I wish it would stay on the neutral side but fortunately it is not super warm. I like wearing it as one and done shadow all over my lids, very easy but still something shiny. On my primer it does stay put.
I wish brands would release more sateen shadows since they are easy to wear and give a bit of subtle glow, I dream of a cool toned bronze or maybe a grey with a lavender shift...

Cooling Pink

 Hello,

I have another Peripera lip tint, I am 'slowly' getting obsessed with them, it doesn't help that they have so many shades and I realise that some look similar to each other so I am being extra careful to pick different ones and this time it is a hot pink option.


Another Peripera Ink Mood glowy tint in Cooling Pink shade. I like the soft gradient packaging and inside is a pretty bright pink tint.


First swatch is freshly applied and second is a tint left behind. First, this one looks pretty innocent, soft pink which naturally blends into my lips but as minutes pass it turns a bit deeper.


I love how glossy they are and I can never get past their high shine, here on my photos it just doesn't translate how shiny it is.


After half an hour or so it turns a bit deeper and specially with reapplying this turns deeper and brighter, stain that is left is even and I love that because that is not common for me.

I am again impressed by this brand, I love the glossiness, innocent looking color and I am not even bothered that it turns deeper after some wear because it stays even and I can always reapply and add the shine. It also works with clear balm applied over it to keep the same color intensity.
I also noticed that my lips stay hydrated while wearing only this tint... I have lost my mind after I figured out that all day long this was all I wore and my lips weren't dry and cracked... I love Peripera lip tints :)

Empties

 Hello,

here is the second art of my empties full of face items.


First is REN bio retinoid anti-ageing cream which I used in the evening. It had a light texture but it took a while to get absorbed. I also have oil from this line and usually I put oil on top of everything but here they recommend cream to be on top of this oil so when I tried this sandwich this cream applied nicer and absorbed quicker. Lotion is already gone but oil remains. I found out that REN is going out of business so I will not be able to repurchase it.

Bright orange is my beloved Neutrogena oil free face moisturiser. I love this fast absorbing cream under my make-up and I have some more backups to go through. If they ever discontinue this one I eally don't know what will replace it.

Next is another one of my many repurchases because it is that good. It is Catrice ultra last fixing spray. It seals my make-up while giving my face glow (not sparkles just uniformed glow. It looks almost like layer of it dries on top of my skin and reflects light). I thought that is pretty standard look but now I am using something else and it does not do that, it just makes me look dry so I bust open another bottle of this Catrice fixing spray and I combine them. Just another proof to me that this one is amazing. 

Mini bottle on top is Cos de BAHA Hyaluronic acid serum. It was a free gift with purchase and that is why it is so small. It had a light and liquid formula and it was a pleasure to use. I would get it again from this brand and try out some other ones as well (I am intrigued by their brightening serum).

Lastly there is Peter Thomas Roth Rose stem cell anti-aging face mask. It was a pink gel mask, very cooling on my skin. It was supposed to be very hydrating but I did not noticed anything special about it, I liked the rose scent but my skin didn't improve while using it so i will not be buying it again. I also have a blue version which is next in line to be used.
