Bare Plum

 Hello,

I purchased this lip gloss because I have a soft spot for glosses in tubes. It came with a clip to wear it as a charm but the lid slides off very easily. I don't feel comfortable wearing it even inside my purse left alone on the outside. 

It is Clio Lip Serum in the shade Bare Plum. For me this name suggest deep purple but in reality it is more mauve, packaging is pretty close to the shade inside. It holds 8 g of product.

Applicator is stiff and angled in a way so it comfortably hugs my lips, the curve is sharper than in most other glosses. I can use it on top and bottom lip and it fits perfectly.

Gloss has slight fruity scent but no taste.

Formula is thin but not runny, when I press my lips together it feels like oil but surprisingly it lasts for about one hour. It also manages to cover and smooth over my lip lines. Usually thicker formulas have this ability not something thiner like this.

When the shine starts wearing off also my lip lines appear.

Shade is rosy mauve and looks pretty natural on me. I like it a lot since it is very modest and can be paired with pretty much every make-up look. 

Surprisingly I like the thin formula, it is not my favorite but still nice to wear and it looks good. Shade is natural on me and the applicator fits my lips perfectly.

I see there are some more muted nude shades available, I am interested...

Natural Pearl & Peace of Amethyst

 Hello,

there were a few single eyeshadows available and again I tried to limit myself for just one from the collection... I settled for two, close enough :)

They are Etude Look at My Eyes My Own Gemstone collection eye shadows in Natural Pearl and Peace of Amethyst. Packaging is quite bulky and because of that they aren't easy to store in my already too large collection but the different colored packaging is making them easier to differentiate.

In the pan they look very different, I was scared that they would be more similar. On the skin they look nothing like in the pan. They surprised me multiple times during trial period.

First is Natural Pearl which has strong pink to peach reflect. The overall effect is strong but only the side in the light is visible. On the eyes this is more obvious, where it appears that there is shadow only in the centre of the lid. I like that it has mostly cool toned look and it is not golden.

Peace of Amethyst has specked lavender pan but there is no base color on the skin, only white individual little glitter. This one is more of a topper since it isn't packed with glitter. I have others which have more impact, this one is more subtle.

Both were made with two swipes, not because they are sheer but just to make swatches more even. 

I like how different they are from one another and while I have other glittery shades similar to Peace of Amethyst I still like it because it is more subtle. Natural Pearl is for the days I prefer something more impactful and while this one is more unique in my collection I don't think I will wear it whole lot just because it is very bright and colorful. 

My favorite one is definitely the second, Peace of Amethyst but I am glad to have both of them :)

Kai lip jelly

 Hello,

I was craving something bright and glossy on my lips, this gloss looked quite perfect. Online photos looked glossy and the shade looked very nice...

It is Dinto Frozen Lip Jelly Snedronningen in the shade Kai. Tube holds 10 ml of product.

Scent is slightly fruity but on the lips it is intensely minty and cooling. Metal applicator even intensifies the cooling effect. 

I like to apply it in a thin coat since the cooling is a bit too much for my liking.

Shade is vibrant coral and I have been looking for a shade like this. Formula is very pigmented and glossy but it is hard to apply evenly. I apply little in a thin coat which gives me a hint of color and not a very intense gloss but it is still very cooling on the lips.

I wanted to love this gloss since the color is very pretty and what I have been looking for but insane pigmentation and intense cooling drives me away. My preference is still sheer pigment with no cooling effect and this one is the opposite and not catered to my taste. If I would know better I would not get it. 

Shine lasts for one hour which is nice but not enough to make me want to wear it.

Thank you for reading and have a nice day

Fussy Berry & Vanilla Fever

 Hello,

these lip oils looked super fun and pretty. Again I could not choose just one shade so I picked two :)

These two are Joocyee Dewdrop Glaze Lip Oils in Fussy Berry and Vanilla Fever. They have twist mechanism and it clicks nicely, I really like this sound :)

Here they look like some weird bug and I love that :) In the middle there is metal plate which is cooling on the lips and fuzzy hood around it prevents spilling.

This amount is too much for my thin lips but I did twist way too much because I did not know better. Now I twist just a little (about three clicks) and appropriate amount comes out.

First is Fussy Berry and is rosy shade with tons of tiny shimmers which makes my lips look frosty, not super glossy but shimmery. There is slight fruity scent, not very strong.

Vanilla Fever is peachy nude shade without any sparkle and it is glossy, I prefer this one but they are both pretty. It has a nice vanilla scent and it is stronger than from the first one.

Gloss last for one hour and then for the next 30 -40 min there is still some glow left but not as intense. After one hour mark also some stickiness appears which I don't like and it reminds me of their clicky pens called Glossy Rouges which are also sticky.

I like the shades and shine on the Vanilla Fewer bust stickiness is not my jam. They are also quite small, each holds only 1,9 ml of product so I feel like I could finish them pretty easily but as I mentioned stickiness is really off putting.

Thank you for reading and have a nice day

Peach Jelly

 Hello,

recently I accidentally purchased two pink lip glosses from Joocyee (Lucent Pink) and since I liked this formula I decided to welcome another shade into my life.

It is Joocyee lip gloss from their limited edition named Happy me Day and the shade I choose is Peach Jelly. It comes in a bright red box and a crisp white tube is hidden inside.

Tube holds 8 ml of product and gloss has slight fruity scent and taste. It is very nice but also very faint.

It has a lather large metal applicator which feels very cold on the lips. Texture is not very liquid and it is nice to spread out all over my lips.

Pigment is buildable and can be worn sheer or layered for some more impact.

Peachy Jelly shade is coral leaning heavily over to the red territory, it has some watermelon brightness to it and golden shimmers.

My first impression was that this is a very happy summer shade :)

I love the glosses which comes in tubes and this one is no exception, I do find the metal applicator a bit large and a bit harder to be precise but the shade is very pretty. It gives me radiance through the shade and shimmer but it is not too bright.

I don't find it exceptionally moisturising because after a whole day of wearing it my lips were a dry and flaky, so layering over a lip balm or switching completely to a clear lip balm from time to time is a must.

I liked this gloss but not enough to buy more unless they change the formula and make it hydrating but it is very longlasting since the shine lasts me for about 1,20 min which is really nice.

Garden Picnic, Bear Biscuit and last is Rose Chanson

 Hello,

I have been using these cupcakes for a while now and I can say that I love this blush formula :)

These cutie pies are FlowerKnows The Sweetie Bear Silk Satin Blushes in the shades Garden Picnic (brown cookie), Bear Biscuit (turquoise one) and last on the bottom is Rose Chanson (pink version).

This packaging is again very detailed and I personally love how they used the cookie design into the packaging. The teddy bears are the sweetest. This packaging makes me very happy :)

Here is a close up of the cream filling that all three have and the scalloped edges makes this whole design perfect. There is magnetic closure so they are very easy to open, no specific tiny ridges to hook my nails into.

Imprints on the blushes are all the same and depict baker bear all proud around its cakes :) Cute but this does not last for long, mine are almost all gone. The one that is still visible is in this darker shade because I use less product when applying it, it is just the nature of deeper blush on my paler skin.

Here they are, all together showing their lovely shades. In the pans they look like a nice diverse selection but on my skin they don't look all that different....

First is Garden Picnic which is apricot shade and I am still on a hunt for that perfect pastel shade (I miss TonyMoly Salmon nude blush) and this looks close.

On top is Bear Biscuit which is the deepest of them all and look nude with some red tones to it and also some orange/terracotta undertone. 

On the bottom is Rose Chanson and looks like a cool toned mauve pink, I don't thin I look very good with a super cool toned pinks on my cheeks but this muted shade looked like I perhaps could work with it... 

First swatch is apricot toned Garden picnic and is actually not intensely colored. It comes off soft but rather light coral than peach and it isn't as pastel as it appears in the pan. Formula is infused with tiny silver shimmers which adds to the overall glow.

Bear Biscuit is the deepest and least shimmery shade. To me it looks nude with red undertone and while it is scary in the pan it looks natural on my skin. I feel like this one is the most pigmented but that could also be an illusion since it is deeper. I have to be a bit careful not to apply too much. It sill has some silver shimmer but less that the other two.

Last is Rose Chanson shade with mauve and rose tones. It looks cooler in the pan and I was afraid that it would not suit me but on my skin it is more neutral pink with little silver shimmers which create beautiful glow on the skin and I can even skip the highlighter.

I like the packaging but it is a bit bulky, shades are pretty and all three look nice on my skintone. Light shimmer is beautiful and this finish isn't too sparkly but on my cheeks it looks like blush and highlighter infused formula.

I hope FlowerKnows releases more blushes with this beautiful finish because I am interested.

Thank you for reading and have a nice day

Love of Fate

 Hello,

I am a big fan of Peripera lip glosses, they have gorgeous strawberry milkshake scent and juicy shine. Color selection is also nice but when I see a new one I often like it and I can't wait to get my hands on it.

I was anxiously waiting for this specific shade (it was out of stock for a while). It is Peripera Ink Glasting Lip Gloss in the lovely shade Love of Fate. It looks like a milky pink shade 

It has standard Peripera dip in the applicator which carries a lot of product, for me a little too much because I have thin lips but it is easy to navigate and apply from the other side which has less product. Under the line, I am not bothered by the big applicator because I can still use it and I get people with thicker lips can benefit from it.

It is milky but still very pigmented baby pink shade. In real life this shade isn't innocent but has brightness to it, on my face this lip gloss looks rather bright than anything else. 

Shade is similar to the one from their limited edition named All That Berry while that one is a little deeper and less milky and also a tad less bright, it looks more natural compared to Love of Fate. I like both but I think I prefer All That Berry over this one but I can get it anymore because it was a limited release. Thankfully Love of Fate isn't that much different and this one is a nice substitute for it.

Thank you for reading and have a nice day
