Way Pink

 Hello,

I am continuing with the pink theme and this is what I thought would be a glowy pink tint. I was expecting  a glossy finish with a tint but I am not sure that is what I got.

Little mushroom is Fwee pink obsession stay fit lip tint in the G06 Way Pink - glowy edition.

This item has a very short stem but the doe foot applicator is regular sized. I don't find application to be hard or weird it just looks like it would apply weird but it doesn't.

It applys very glossy and liquid like so I was expecting it to stay like that for an hour or so but I was wrong since it takes about 5min for it to settle and then is almost matte. It actually looks like I applied a bit of clear lip balm over it, so it is not completely matte but I was expecting it to be glossier.

Here on my photos it looks a bit more red when in fact it is more hot pink. It is very saturated and bright. I definitely picked the wrong shade since I prefer more muted or lighter, natural pinks.

Way Pink is bright and almost fuchsia pink and I am a bit sick of it (there were times when I loved shades like this on myself but I got over it).

It leaves a pretty strong and even stain which lasts for hours. I can drink, I can apply lip balms or lip glosses and it doesn't remove the stain. I would say after several hours, 6 or 7 it starts fading. After eating it was removed completely.

Packaging is super cute, scent is slightly artificial but barely noticeable and there is no taste. Stain is even and longlasting (I don't recommend eating since food dissolves the stain). There is so many things that I like about this but one of the most important ones - shade is what I don't love :( 

I find Way Pink shade too bright for me and I am thinking of passing it to my sister.

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.

Pink things up

 Hello,

I found another products in my archives. I purchased this one pretty soon after it was released. I was eying it since it was shown and I was scouting the release date. So it better be good.

It is Essence glossy glaze high shine lipstick in the shade Pink things up (it is number 3). I am still in my pink faze :)

The strip at the bottom and tube matches the shade pretty well. It has a faint fruity scent but once on the lips it is undetectable. The formula is pigmented and glossy. It feels hydrating while it is on my lips. I had no issues with dry lips while wearing it.

Here the shine is visible and it creates that healthy look on my lips. The shade is pigmented to show on the lips and I was scared that it would require a mirror to apply, especially since the tube is wide. The goss saves it since if I get a bit over the lines is not as visible because of the shine. I am still a bit scared and I mostly apply it in front of the mirror but if this would be the only lip product while on the go I would apply it and not worry too much.

I am actually very happy with it and Essence already came out with a new seasonal line and they didn't add a bunch of new shades... I think they only added one, darker option. I hope they will not discontinue them, since I like this formula, I would like to try out number 1 (nude) and 2 (peach) option. I am not interested in deeper or brighter shades.

Slightly confused

 Hello,

I am back with another limited edition item and it is a good one.

Limited edition Catrice Alice inWonderland luminizing compact powder in the only option Slightly confused. 

Alice print elevates this product to the next level. Shade is pale gold with blue imprint. There is fine shimmer in it, more like an all over glow than random particles.

Another closeup of the Alice since I suspect it won't stick for long and I was right. Blue isn't deep and when checking shade on the skin it thankfully disappears quickly.

This product does kick up some powder when I touch it with a brush so I guess it will be used up faster that some other tightly pressed products.

First swatch was made avoiding blue and second with the blue shade and the difference is more visible in person than what I was able to capture on camera. Shimmer isn't obvious but it rather creates uniformed shine. My face is paler than my arm so it blends into my skin tone pretty well but the glow is visible.

I definitely don't regret getting it since I like the pale gold shade (on my skin in more cool toned since this gold isn't yellow but neutral in tone), it has glow but not random glitters or shimmers. With a light touch is on a natural side and I like this but it is buildable and can look too metallic if applied too heavy. So far I am avoiding the blue but I am thinking of taking it off to get to the only base color.

So far this Alice in Wonderland collection is a hit but I don't think I will get more items from this LE.

Milky and Rosy Glaze

 Hello,

I have finally tried the Fwee jelly pots :) I thought that the shape is random but it is actually peach shaped packaging and it is very cute.

I have received two Lip & cheek glowy jelly pots. Big one in 4g is Milky and mini is a gift with purchase and the shade was picked at random, I have received Rosy Glaze.

I can see why they named them jelly. Texture very much reminds me of it. On top there is a firm film which needs to be broken to get the pudding like texture out of it. I did not get the silicone applicator so I just use the top of my nail to scoop some of it out.

Milky is pastel, baby pink and Rosy Glaze is a bit deeper muted rose shade. Milky looks a bit pale on the lips but Rosy Glaze looks perfect, this shades melts and blends into my natural lip shade. While I have to be careful with milky not to apply too much I can put a generous amount of Rosy Glaze and it still look nice.

They have no detectable scent but are so very juicy to look at. Colors are pigmented and they look glossy enough on the lips. Because my natural lip color is on the red side Milky has to be applied with careful thought but Rosy Glaze looks more natural on me so I can put more on and then it also last longer. I wish it would still be a bit more long lasting. 

I would also mention the nice hydration that they provide and even when I apply them on chapped lips they slowly but surely smooth them out.

These peach shaped Fwee balms are really nice and I can see myself buying some more but on sale, their prices are quite high for such small product (packaging is large but there is only 4g of product inside).

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

Smile

 Hello,

it has been a while since Essence collection intrigued me and on top of that to get my hands on items that I like (usually I am always too late).

Essence and Catrice recently came out with a joint collection of Alice in Wonderland. I decided to pick up both plumping high-shine lipglosses in Wear a smile and Purrfect smile.

They are clear with iridescent shimmer. First Wear a smile has mostly pink shimmer and it looks a bit more packed with it and second Purrfect smile has more of a peach/golden sparkles and it seems there is less of it.

Each contains 4ml of product.

Dove foot applicators are large and they carry a lot of product on them (I have smaller lips and there is plenty of product on them for me).

Here the difference between the two is visible. Pink one is more obvious than the peachy/golden one. On the lips the shimmer is even less visible because here I made thick swatches.

The texture is actually really nice on these. They go on like glass, they cover all the lines and smooth over the lips. Glosses aren't sticky and have pretty strong scent.

Wear a smile has a bubblegum and Purrfect smile has minty scent mixed with some plastic/artificial scent. They both turn slightly cooling (there is the plumping in the name) but it is not strong or tingling.

In general I like them, I like how they look on the lips, their longevity, light shimmer but if I have to choose one it would be Wear a smile, the bubblegum scent is more appealing than plasticky one in the Purrfect smile.
