Guava lips

 Hello,

I am back with a familiar product in some new, fresh shades with two different finishes.

They are Rom&nd Glasting Color Glosses in Guava Cream and mini is Guava Sparkle. 

Applicators are almost the same size, not much difference and I like that they were somehow able to keep the size since I find it very fitting for my lips, I usually don't need to reapply.

Shades are almost the same, rosy red but cream version is a bit more sheer and the sparkling one not only has more pigment, there is also tiny silver shimmer which does not distracts but adds to the glow.

Cream option has slight fruity scent while sparkling one has none but it tingles, thankfully the sensation disappears fast.

These are lovely, very similar shades to my lips and look very natural on me. I really like this formula as they are very glossy.

I know I say that for all of Rom&nd shades but these two are great and possibly my favorite. I just wish the mini would not have the tingle but I love the shimmer.

I found out that they now have separate shimmery line and I am excited for it but they did not included Guava Sparkle... :(

I think that is a missed opportunity but maybe this shade did not get great reviews or maybe they will add it later, hope remains.

Thank you for reading and have a nice day

Dry Buckwheat Flower

 Hello,

this little palette intrigued me for months, I live for cool toned neutrals and I hoped that this one will be the next best thing after sliced bread...

It is Rom&nd Better Than Eyes eye shadow quad in Dry Buckwheat Flower. In the description it said that it is cool toned and that was the reason I purchased it. On some swatches it looks cool and on some brown and sparkly shade looked warm toned... I decided to take a risk.

After seeing it in person I still think it leans warm, first shade is of a very surprising tone rest of them are kind of expected.

First is ivory but cool toned shade, like if they added a drop of grey in it. very unusual, on my arm it is barely visible but on my eyes it is slightly deeper and cooler than my skin tone and I love putting it all over the lid as a light base and then just let it be or I can layer something else on top. This one is my favorite.

Second is medium brown with undertone leaning warm, not particularly orange but still warm. It is nice for deepening outer corners but I wish they would replace it with something true cool toned.

Third shade is the only shimmery and this one to leans warm, it is golden but not yellow. I like it full on like on the swatch but I love it when I just dab it on the lid and it looks like scattered glitter, very nice accent color.

Last is deeper brown with some warmth in it as well, for me this one is only liner but it is nice because it is dark enough to line and accentuate but still warm enough to differentiate from my usual black/grey.

This palette is a nice all rounder for me, first shade is my favorite followed closely with the third shimmery shade. As a whole all shades work well together, all of these swatches were made with only one swipe so that speaks of pigment and longevity is insane. Even when I wore them in the extreme heart they did not crease.

This little palette set the bar really high, pigmentation and longevity wise. I love reaching for it and I enjoy using it.

Big purchase no. 5

 Hello,

here is another part of my big purchase and what is jet to come. I think I am the most excited for lippies. 

I can't wait to try all Rom&nd new shades of Glasting Color Glosses in Nutty Vague, Cream Shell, Rose Finch and Dim Mauve. I already have three shades and I love them all, I will see if among these there is my new favorite shade.

Relatively big palettes are JudyDoll Pink Dew-Shine 6 color palettes in Pink Coral and Peach Soda. Shadows in two larger pans could be used on the face as well and there is also one super glittery shade for accentuating. Shades look pale but still very promising.

Little black tube is Lancôme Hypnose mascara. I already had one and I really liked it, I know how expensive these are so when I saw one for cheap I purchased it even if it is a little one. It still lasted me a long time the last time I had it.

Last but not least is Amuse Jel Fit tint is Boksoonga Jelly. I was super curious about it and there were a few shades I was interested in and because I already picked up so many items I decided to get only one, to try out. if I end up liking it I can always get more.

Big purchase no. 4

 Hello,

I have some more interesting product, some are from already tried formulas that I know I love and some are new to me and I am even more excited to try them out.

Teddy was a gift with purchase after I bought Dasique Fruity Lip Jam in Jujube Jam balm. Bear is actually a brush meant to apply balm, how cute :) Balm looks super glossy on the lips and I am curious to see if that will be true for me as well and how long lasting the product is.

Next are two Rom&nd Glasting melting Balm in Sorbet Balm and Buffy Coral. I tried one before and formula felt right for me so I purchased more. These two looked like shades I would like and wear daily, hopefully they will look good also on my skin tone. 

My love for Peripera has no bounds and I purchased another Ink Glasting Lip Gloss from their Soft Berry Edition in the shade All that Berry. These have amazing scents, shine and longevity is also very good.

Lastly there are three FlowerKnow cupcakes from The Sweetie Bear Coating line. Lippies are Lip Jellys in Peach Tea, Ribbon Pink and Croissant options. I wanted to try one from each color way to get some variety. Previous lip products from FlowerKnows all had grape scent and I will see if they choose to keep the scent, I kind of hope that they will be grapey since it is one of my favorite scents in lip products.

 Hello,

I am back with another pink selection of new make-up.

Let's start on top with JudyDoll Undereye Shadow Palette in Lively Pink. There are four shades with included brush for a quick and on the go make-up. Shades looked like something I would like and I thought my collection could benefit from some light shades in different tones. If I will like it I might pick the peach tone as well.

Three lippies are Colorgram. Clear tubes are  Fruity Glass glosses in Farewell Guava and Giggle Strawberry and middle one is Fruity Glass Tint in Mochi Pink. All tubes are the same size and hold 3g of product.  Giggle Strawberry looks a bit bright... hopefully is sheer.

Two pretty blushes are Canmake Glow cheeks blushes in Ballerina Pink and Momo Whiped Fleur. Floral design is so pretty but I know that in order to enjoy them I will have to ruin the design. So far I really liked blushes from them so I have high hopes.

Last pink item is Rom&nd Sheer tinted stick in Bunny Hop. There was also a deeper mauve shade that I liked but at the end I picked this one because of the cute name ;) hopefully I will also like the formula :)

Thank you for reading and have a nice day

Joy Berry

 Hello,

I have a limited edition lip gloss and while the packaging is adorable the fact that this is a limited shade makes me nervous.

I recently purchased this limited edition Zoe & Friends Rom&nd glasting color gloss in Joy Berry. Box is cute with the annoyed cat and I just wanted to snap a photo of it.

Packaging is not see through but light grey all over and I love the color plus the kitty at the bottom is super cute.

It holds 4 ml of product and has only a slight fruity scent. It could be stronger, I would not mind it.

Applicator is standard and at first it looks brighter than on the swatch. There is no shimmers but it looks extra glossy.

Shade is light berry and it pulls a bit pink. I think it accentuates my naturally red pigment in my lips and turns it a bit more pink but keeps it lively with brightness without calling it a red lip.

This formula is light enough but still not super liquid so if applied a bit more (to get that juicy look) it does not drip down my chin.

I really like the formula and since I already have two shades (Peony Ballet and Grapy Way) I am familiar with the formula. Under the line I have to admit that Joy Berry is my favorite shade out of the three I have :)

Thank you for reading and have a nice day

Litchi Coral & Pink Pumpkin

 Hello,

I wanted to try out this highly praised line of lip tints and because I could not pick just one I choose two shades.

They are Rom&nd Juicy Lasting tint in Litchi Coral and Pink Pumpkin. I did not expect these two to be so similar, they have different undertones though.

Applicator is longer and they carry a lot of product, I need to wipe a bit off since lighter layers work better for me. Once one layer sits for a minute I can go over with the second and it will not lift the base layer otherwise it removes it (if I apply one thick coat or follow with a second layer too soon).

Scent is fruity, nothing specific just fruity and even that scent isn't strong and quickly disappears.

First swatch is fresh and second is remaining stain of Litchi Coral. It is red with coral tone but leaning towards cool tone, especially compared to the second shade. It is very bright and vibrant, fresh swatch and stain are both very vivid.

Third and fourth are Pink Pumpkin. Not much of pink but rather an orange red, kind of tomato soup red shade, also very vivid and bright on the fresh and dried swatch.

I expected these two to look more sheer but I guess a lot of people swatch them lightly and I pretty much always end up with too much. I need to learn how to apply little and blend it with my fingers because wands carry a lot of product.

They aren't super glossy and shine fades quickly but stain is long lasting. On my top lip these two again do  that weirdness when my upper lip line is tinted and the remaining of my upper lip stays the same. It is not super intense but with red shades it is still noticeable. I figured that this formula just isn't for me. 

Thank you for reading and have a nice day

New package no.3

 Hello,

this is the last post of this package, I saved cutest ones for last. These even made me watch some cartoons to get familiar with characters (maybe I even purchased t-shirt with Cinnamoroll :).

Fwee makes these lovely 3D voluming lip glosses and when I saw some new shades I was intrigued. I finally purchased 70% Yogurt (I wanted this shade ever since it came out but it is often sold out) sadly they don't make the sheer version of it... I think it would be lovely. Mini is 70% Rose Hip, peachy duo is 70% Vanilla and mini is 70% Peach Oolong. Minis here are only available in mini formats, I hope they will ever make them in regular size.

Cuties in the middle in green are Etude What's in my eyes, pink version is Twinkle Glitter and white one is Honey Honey. These are limited edition ones and since I at the moment love shimmery eye shades, these two looked and and the price was dirty cheap.  

Next is cute Pompompurin Bbia Over Glaze Strawberry Plop shade. This one looked so lovely online that I would get it regardless from the puppy.

Bottom two tubes are from a familiar formula but different shades. They are Etude Sugar Coloring Jelly balms. Big one is Peach Twist and little one is Crystal Candy. I have Bare Pink (cool toned one) and I actually did not like it... I feel like  I am the only one so I decided to give it another try and get some other shades and these two came in a set...it was a no brainer. 

Next I fell for Rom&nd Glasting Color glosses, and in particular the mini one Guava Sparkle. This one caught my eye and I would prefer if they would swap shades and sizes because I would love to get more of the shimmery shade. Big one however is Guava Cream. There was also Peony Ballet duo and I would love a sparkly version of it but it was sold out, otherwise I would get both sets.

In the package is Coralhaze Perfect Dew & Fix duo. It includes Dew Drop tint in Mellow and mini lip pencil without any name. I tried to find more about lip pencil it but I can't, it seems like Coralhaze don't even make or sell lip pencils. I kind of hope I won't like it :)

Thank you for reading and have a nice day

New package no.1

Hello,

my next order arrived and there are mostly super exciting items included :)

 Top is Colorgram fruity glass tint Peach Bana. I love this pinky peach base with shimmers and I can't wait to try it out. The name also fits me to a T. It also came with a clicker (I use it to annoy my boyfriend ;), I know he secretly loves it :)

I picked two Amuse sets. One is pink shade is White Boksoonga gloss and another is peachy Honey Boksoonga with two mini Jel-fit tints. I hear awesome things about Amuse so I wanted to try it out myself. If I understand minis are tints layered first and to prolong the shine I should add gloss on top, I can't wait to try them out.

Lastly there are three limited edition Zoe & Friends Rom&nd items. First two are Glasting melting balms one in Pink Jelly (the outer color is gray and there is something so excited to try it on the lips) and Daisy Jelly. I already tried this formula and it is gorgeous, I feel like these two will not be last. Lastly there is Glasting color gloss in Joy Berry (here only the packaging is gray and the gloss inside is in such a lively shade. Again, this formula is already something I have tried and I know I will like it a lot.

Out of all these I really don't know which one to try out first, I think i will gamble to determine which one will be first in order ;)

Peach Peach me

 Hello,

I got my hands on this shade that I immediately wanted after I set my eyes on it. It looked like a perfect Spring, early Summer shade. Brightening my face with a touch of color.

Here it is, Rom&nd The Juicy Lasting Tint in the gorgeous shade Peach Peach me. I wanted this shade for the longest, bright tone really stuck in my brains and I am super excited to finally have it.

I love how bright this shade looks and it is also buildable, I can wear it in the sheer way, reapplying it makes it darker and brighter.

Here is the difference, first swatch is just applied and second is after a few minutes when the gloss comes out. It applies shiny but not super glossy, after a little it develops this mirror like shine and the shade doesn't get significantly darker.

The second swatch is removed only to reveal light stain, not only it is light but also easily removed so whenever I do not want to deepen the color I can remove it completely and then apply fresh layer.

I expected some scent but there is nothing I can detect, the shade is gorgeous though :) I love the glossiness and longevity, it lasts well over one hour and then I can reapply or layer a sheer lip balm over it.  When I was wearing it all day long it did not dry my lips out and I find it hydrating. This shade is one of my favorites and it will be hard to put it down to try some other items.

My birthday shopping no.2

 Hello,

yesterday was only one part of my shopping. Today I am sharing some more items, that I decided to get to treat myself for a B-day.

I would like to start with Rom&nd blush from their limited edition with Inapsquare, it is Better than Cheek in the shade Ginger Night. Pale apricot with a little nude thrown in the mix.

Then there is shiny lipstick from Etude Color Lasting Glow Stick in the shade Rosy Taupe, I have to try it out but at first glance it doesn't look Rosy or Taupey.

Similar shade of blush from Bbia Last Blush in Juliet Rose. This one looks a tad more vivid but still very neutral and toned down.

In the bottom right corner is big pot of Skinfood Honey Sugar Food Mask Lip Sleeping Pack, not only it has such a ridiculously long name the packaging contains whopping 21 g of product.

There are two Joocyee Long-lasting Glossy Rouges in Oceanic theme, Diamond Sea and Pink Ocean. There is a lot of different shades but these two spoke to me the most.

For my brows I decided to get Etude Drawing eye brow in Dark Grey. I am filling my brows with powder but I decided to try something 'new' for me and I got this pencil. I had some before but I always found powder to be the easiest to apply with an angled brush, I want to see if I changed my mind and now pencil will become my best friend.

Lastly there is another blush from Rom&nd, Better Than Cheek Mutural Nude series in  Lychee Chip. This one has pretty sparkles in it and that was the selling point for me.

Thank you for reading and have a nice day

Another package no. 3

 Hello,

this is the third part of my package. It was really full of items that I wanted for a while.

I will start with the bottom left with Milk Touch Dew Stain Sheer Lip Gloss in Peony Rain, this one looked so dreamy on promo photos that I just had to grab.

Next, on top is Rom&nd The Juicy Lasting Tint in the color option Peach Peach Me. I picked another shade from this line and hopefully it is just like I envisioned.

In the pink tube is JudyDoll Crystal Gloss in Lucent Pink, this shade really screamed my name and I picked it out from the abundance of shades.

In the mirror shiny packaging there are Oddtype Unseen Due Glow Balm in Above and Beyond (I had three shades in my shopping cart, at the end I choose these two based on their names ;)

Beautiful blush is Missha Cotton blush in My Candy Shop. There were so many shades but this one stood out to me the most and I think I got the right one.

Next two with rings are Heart Percent Dote One Way Glowy Tint in Peachy Milk and Dawn Mauve. These are really loved around the world and I wanted to see with my own eyes to see what is so special about them.

Light pink stylo is Self Beauty Veganize Collagen Lip Glass Balm in Pinkmelon Glow. It is light pink with shimmers, I can't wait to try it out.

Last is Braye Thin Glow Tint in the color Healthy. I wanted to get this one in the past but thsi shade was sold out for a while, when it got back in stock I snatched it real quick.

This is the last post for this haul and there are a lot of items that I will be trying out in the next weeks.

Thank you for reading and have a nice day

Meteor Track

 Hello,

one of my favorite brands is Rom&nd and this gloss looked like it is very popular so I kept my eye on it until some sale came around and I snatched it.

Here it is Rom&nd Glasting Water gloss in Meteor Track. Clear gloss with silver, blue and purple shimmers inside. This tube holds 4,3 ml of product which is low but pretty standard nowday.

Here I tried to showcase the colorful glitters but blue and purple doesn't want to show up :)

Wand is elongated, soft silicon applicator, it is curved to easier hug your lip and it is easy to use.

I was surprised that it smelled just like my toothpaste, not just minty and it was a bit cooling. If I got it in my mouth it gave me a bit of refreshment, just like mouthwash ;)

This gloss is not sticky but it still has a thicker consistency. I think this gel texture helps to achieve that super shiny finish (mirror shine) that I like.

Shimmer looks a bit shy on bare skin, but used over some color it is more visible (I don't know why I did not swatch and photograph that).

I like the finish of this gloss, shimmers are nice and sparse enough to work but toothpaste and cooling effect are not my favorite, that is why I will not be getting more of these. I know there are two other tinted versions but I am not interested in them as of now.

Thank you for reading and have a nice day

Pale Peony, Toe Shoes and Jambon Pink

 Hello,

I had a bunch of these single shadows in my online shopping basket and since I had so many items already  in my basket I took a bunch out and accidentally I only left pink ones.

Rom&nd slide in single shadows in Pale Peony, Toe Shoes and Jambon Pink. I find Toe Shoes name super funny.

Here on the photo the whole packaging isn't very visible. Each has an extended plastic on top to pull out the shadow and you can pull them all the way out so there are two plastic components. First time I tried to put them back I push them from the other side and there is some resistance which tells you that you went the wrong way.

Here are swatches in the same order Pale Peony and Toe Shoes are both matte but Pale Peony is borderline peachy pink and quite pale (my face is a bit lighter than my arm so it does show up more) while Toe Shoes is a bit deeper and brighter.

I wore them also as blush and I loved that as well.

Last swatch of Jambon Pink is shimmer pink with some silver in there as well. It is very sparkly and I like that :)

I wore it on its own or layered over the other two (I could also wear it over some other shadows but I just focused on these three and combinations I could make with them).

I did not liked it as a highlighter since I don't like this type of obvious shimmer on my cheeks but I love it on my eyes. So it sparkles when I blink :)

I am very happy with these three, I love the shades that I have picked out. The two mattes are very soft to the touch (I loved applying them with my fingers and then blend them out with a brush which didn't kick any dust) and formulas. When I will be on the market to get some more shadows I will get some more shades from Rom&nd.

Peony Ballet & Grapy Way

 Hello,

most of the time I am obsessed with glossy lips and right now especially with pink tones, I know that pink isn't the most Autumnal shade but I think I can pull pinks well no matter the season.

I purchased two Rom&nd glasting color glosses in Peony Ballet and Grapy Way in 4ml tubes.

These two are some of their most popular shades and knowing myself I knew I would like these two the most. At the moment I live for the pinks.

They have a slight fruity scent but nothing too detectable. Formula on these is somewhat jelly like. Very shiny (it creates uniformed look, it smoothes over the lip lines and pigment doesn't settles) and pretty sheer. On the back of my hand I packed the colors, on the lips they are more sheer and super glossy.

Peony Ballet is vivid pink but neutral in tone, Grapy Way had mauve tones in it but it doesn't look dark on the lips.

I wish they would be more longlasting but otherwise I have no other complaints. I like the sheer color payoff and especially glossy look of my lips. I think I would repurchase these two, I am looking also at the Dim Mauve shade...

Thank you for reading and have a nice day

Veiled Rose

Hello,

tinted lip balms and lip glosses are my favorite lip products, if I can combine the two then that is my dream come true.

This is Rom&nd glasting melting balm in the shade Veiled Rose. I am in search of a super glossy tinted lip balm and seeing this one with a lot of praise I just had to get it.

Veiled Rose shade is also very popular since it looks very natural so I decided to get exactly this shade to try out before opting for something bolder.

This color really looks natural on me, it is pigmented enough to make my lips look like one shade but still sheer (it comes handy while applying it without a mirror). The shine is respectable (I hoped to be even glossier) but it does last. This shine sticks around for a little over than a hour and the color wears off nicely. It doesn't leave any tint behind but they also don't claim that.

Lip balm is very sweet scented like some candy but I can't think of any specific type. 

There really is nothing which would make me dislike it.

I like the sturdy packaging, sweet scent, shade is perfect and the shine is not bad. I like to longevity and how nicely it wears off, it keeps my lips hydrated all day long.

I am eying some more shades, I think I will get some nudes, corals and maybe even brighter pinks. I will see how long it will take me to get through this one and if this shade will still be in my heart I will get it again.

Thank you for reading and have a nice day
