Fwee Guava Crush

 Hello,

this lip balm got me on its hook. When I saw it I knew I had to have it. It looked like limited edition (it is, but only the packaging with the angry melon) and once it will be sold out it should be gone forever,  that is what I thought. I am glad that it stayed and that they released even more shades but if I knew that then I would not be in a hurry, plus the coin bag is not necessary for me. It is cute but I would rather just have the juicy balm.

It is Fwee Glowy Smoothie tinted lip balm in Guava Crush. I was debating if I should get the lighter pink as well but at the end I decided to get only one since each would come with this little bag. It is cute and all but I don't know what to use it for, I already have a coin purse which serves its purpose already.

There was also the nude option which did not interest me at the time but now when I see more photos it looks great and I am interested in that one too.

Angry little melon baby again, it does make me smile and I guess that is the point. To make every day a bit brighter just by looking at the lip balm :)

It has this standard lip gloss, liquid balm applicator (no donuts here) and it is easy to use.

Color is on the sheer side and it is easy to use while on the go, without a mirror. It is very glossy and has no shimmers. Shine lasts a little over one hour.

Scent on this Guava Crush option is fruity and a bit green (I don't know how guava smells like, I have never tried this fruit in my life). Recently I tried Catrice lip balm with guava scent and that one was sweeter while this one is not sweet like that. It is more juicy fruity and green, I prefer the Catrice one but somehow I think this one is more realistic guava scent, I imagine fruit smelling like this one not like Catrice version.

I like the cute packaging, scent is up my taste, scent is different but lovely and even longevity is decent. I really like this one and now I am checking some other shades as well. They have green one which I think is clear with spf, that could be also interesting but maybe for next year. I wonder why not all of them have spf... 

Thank you for reading and have a nice day

Ginger Sugar

 Hello,

I have purchased this Etude duo since I wanted to try out the serum. It is supposed to be very balm like and super glossy. I love everything glossy snd this one looked right up my alley. 

They are Etude Ginger Sugar Lip Serum in Plum Jam (13 ml) and mini Ginger Sugar Overnight Lip Mask (6 g).

Overnight mask does have slight scent and a little taste (thank good since I am not a big fan of ginger) but the formula is very firm and a little goes a long way.

Serum has one of the largest doe foot applicators and at the end there is a dip where the product builds up (on the photo that is not visible since there is a product there, for me this applicator hold way too much product but I just wipe some of it to the sides). Serum has a a little stronger ginger scent but no burning sensation, that is just fine with me.

Overnight mask is a bit milky but on the lips is completely clear. The amount on my hand is huge, I would split it into three parts and wore it accordingly. If I wear too much it gets sticky and stringy but when applied a little is forms a coat over my lips and sticks for hours (it reminds me of vaseline). At the moment my lips aren't chapped but I presume this one will be great addition to my winter care. It feels like I could also apply it over some pesky dry areas all over my body. 

Plum Jam is gorgeous, it can be worn full on but I find this shade a bit dark, on my swatch I sheer it out and I am showing you the shade as I wear it on my lips. I have a soft spot for these mauve tones since they make my red lips a bit more muted while the intensity remains (my natural lip shade is rarely pale, I have natural redness to them and this type of shades take away the bright red tones but still make me look pretty natural). The shine is very intense even when I sheer it out, the gloss stays for way over one hour. I love this gloss so much that I am already looking at other shades. My first pick was actually Nudy Beige but it was unavailable so I picked my other favorite. I think I will now get almost all other shades :)

P.S. When was the last time you saw lip gloss in this format holding 13 ml of product?

Thank you for reading and have a nice day

Numond and Baby Apricot

Hello,

this brand intrigued me for a while now and finally I picked out some of their lippies.

They are Alternative stereo and I picked from their Candy Sweets line (I love the muted nude tones at the moment) lip potion caramel glaze in Numond and I have received mini Baby Apricot shade from the same line. 

Numond is regular sized and holds 8 ml and mini Baby Apricot has only 1,5 ml but there is enough product just to try it out.

Regular sized one has a bit wider applicator and carries a bit more product while they shaped the one in a mini slimmer to get it out of thinner bottle.

Surprisingly there is no scent to them, somehow I expected caramel...

Numond is very light nude with a touch of peach to it. On my lips it is visible, it makes my lips a tad lighter and at first a bit sinks into my lines but after a few minutes it is okay and it looks nice. I wear it whenever I prefer my lips to be paler than usual.

Baby Apricot is a bit more vivid without being too bright but it still falls into nude territory. It gives my face a little color, a little life.

Formula is glossy (I love applying one and a half layers to even out shades), they look light but are actually quite pigmented. I have zero complaints against colors (I love both but I think Baby Apricot is a bit more practical for me), they look lovely on their own or layered with each other.

Shine lasts for about one hour, I wish it would be a bit more longlasting  but it is okay. I still like them a lot and there are a few more shades that peak my interest.

Thank you for reading and have a nice day

Mellowy Cheek

 Hello.

this lip balm has been on my radar for a while but I did not like any of the offered shades, at least up until this collection came out.

It is Peripera Ink Mood Glowy Balm in the shade Mellowy Cheek. The packaging is limited editon and I also believe the shade is limited as well. This one looked rosy among orange and fuchsia toned shades that they released among this line.

I was surprised that the shade looked more peach toned, it looks nice but not what I expected from the swatches.

Shade is pretty sheer, it just compliments my lips while giving them plenty of shine. Surprisingly there is no scent (their lip glosses have this lovely Strawberry Milkshake scent) and application is smooth. 

It leaves no stain which isn't surprising since it is so pale but it can be build up.

I love that the shine surpasses one hour.

I am really pleasantly surprised by it, I really like it. I went to check other available shades at the moment and there is only a few but the rest look more pigmented and not the shades I would enjoy at the moment, I think for a while I will not be buying more but I will be checking if they will have more shades up to my liking and get them then.

Thank you for reading and have a nice day

Nutty Vague, Rose Finch, Dim Mauve and Cream Shell

 Hello,

I am back with some more of Rom&nd glosses but one of them has slightly different formula. It feel like an imposter :)

They are Rom&nd Glasting Color Gloss in Nutty Vague, Rose Finch, Dim Mauve and Cream Shell. I placed them in number order. I thought that I had nearly all of them but Rom&nd released even more pale shades (inspiration came from Cream Shell) and more shimmery shades (which I think is a great move).

Applicator is pretty standard and this is a photo of Cream Shell, formula on this one is a bit thicker and more pigmented than on the rest.

Here they are in order, applied with just one swipe.

Nutty Vague is warmer toned nude but on my already red lips it just tones them down and made them look a bit peachy.

Second is Rose Finch and this one is a bit more vivid compared to the rest, quite red but still can be sheered out and it looks natural one. It compliments my natural lip color and makes my lips look a bit more even.

Next is Dim Mauve and I expected something a bit more mauve but due to its sheerness color does not stand out, it gives me similar effect than the first shade minus the warmth.

Lastly there is Cream Shell. This one is very pale nudy-pink and it is way more pigmented, it can be a bit sheered out but not as much as the rest. This one is also a bit too pale for me and it seeps into my fine lines, after a few minutes it is okay (I just apply it while I am still doing my make up and by the time I am done it looks fine) and it is wearable but my lips aren't red anymore but quite pale. It is definitely a look but not something I would wear every day.

I feel like first three shades are my favorite while Cream Shell is a bit pale for me, I think I can still wear it since it changes my make-up tremendously and sometimes I need my look to be different than any other day. 

I feel like Nutty Vague and Dim Mauve would be used up first just because they are sheer, Rose Finch has brighter color payoff and it fill take more time (I can't apply two or three layers since it is so red) and lastly Cream Shell would be used up last, since I don't use a lot of product when I do wear it and even then I feel like wearing it for the day and after that I would reach for a shade that looks more like 'me' :)

Now I am curious how other shades look which were recently released and were inspired by Cream Shell. They have two pinky red shades and one cool toned one which peak my interest.

Thank you for reading and have a nice day

Little package no. 2

 Hello,

this is the second part and there are some extra lovely items included.

In this absolutely oversized box is Peripera limited edition Ink Mood Glowy Balm Mellowy Cheek, shade is leaning rosy. These are supposed to be super glowy balms and I was just waiting for the right shade and sale to come along to pick one up.

In the middle is Etude Ginger duo. I got Ginger Sugar lip serum in the shade Plum Jam and it came with a mini Ginger Sugar overnight lip mask. I was close purchasing this potted lip balm a while ago and I am glad that I did not since I can try it now in a mini format (if I will end up not linking it then there will not be much to throw away).

Big green box really caught me by surprise. I think this item was the real reason why I placed this order. I got such a strong fomo and I wasn't even thinking straight. I believed that these balms are only limited edition and once they are gone they are gone for good. It cam with a little pouch and I still don't know if I should keep it or donate it but the balm is the main character. It is Fwee Glowy Smoothie tinted lip balm and I picked Guava Crush. AT first I wanted to get all three shades but pouches stopped me since I don't know what will I do with one let alone with three.

At the bottom there are two Alternative stereo duos. First is Candy Sweets collection Lip Potion Sugar Glaze in the shade Podew Candy Ball which arrived with Multi Highlighter stick.

Second box is another Alternative stereo duo, this one contains Sugar Glaze Lip Potion in Strawberry Mousse Ball with mini Quartz Ball. In swatches I loved the baby pink sugar glaze shade but also the mini caught me off guard. When I saw this blackened sparkly gloss I was all over it.

Little package no. 1

 Hello,

for today I have a colorful package to show.

I decided to try Alternative stereo brand and I picked from their Candy Sweets line (I love the muted nude tones) lip potion caramel glaze in Numond and I have received mini Baby Apricot shade from the same line. I received two shades to try out and if I will like them I can get more. I love when i receive mini item in a different shade, I am more likely to like the line and get more.

Then next are Bbia Over Glaze in Pink Apple Syrup and mini Fresh Syrup (sheer green top coat). I think this is newer shade from their apple line and I completely fell head over hells over this pink shade, green top coat did not pull me in but it is a nice addition.

From Zootopia collab I purchased Tony Moly Perfect Lips Shocking Lip in Coco Balm shade. I did not find many swatches but I had a hunch that this could be not so warm toned brown and I wanted to try it out.

Another Dinto, this one is Bronte Melting-Glow lip balm in Agnes Grey, I feel for this mid toned pink/rose shade. On the model it looked absolutely lovely and glossy.

At the bottom I purchased all three Mangomee limited edition blushes from Peripera Sunshine Cheek line. They are Creamy Beige, Soft Pink and Mangomee Pink. What I didn't realised before purchasing is that they are not traditional powders, but jelly formula (that is how they call them, somewhat cream to powder formula).
