5 Reasons to Love Revlon Colorstay Moisture Stain

Beauty September 13, 2016

As an avid Revlon user, I think it's only fitting for today's post to the 5 things I love about Revlon's Colorstay Moisture Stain! So for those of you who aren't familiar with the product, here are a few reasons why to get it, love it, and use it!

1. 12 different color choices for everyday use!

In an array of wearable colors, the ones I tried today are the more neon and vibrant colours, but for those who prefer a more lighter toned lip, fear not! Revlon's Colorstay Moisture Stain comes in nude shades as well. I believe you will find at least one shade that suits your skin tone

2. Moisture, moisture, and more moisture!

For those worried about their lips getting dry and chapped, rest assured this lip gloss will keep you hydrated throughout the day. There's no need to apply over and over again (except, of course, after a meal!) throughout the day, you wont need any additional lipbalm to retain the moisture.

3. Comfortable and smooth the entire day!

They say beauty is pain, and that comfort is optional, but not with Revlon Colorstay Moisture Stain! I must admit, I thought that since most of the time glossy means sticky this one wouldn't be much different, but thankfully I was wrong. It's probably because of the Vitamin E and Aloe that it seems so smooth and light? Well, even if it starts of sticky before it dries, the rest of the day you'll definitely forgot that you put it on in the morning. Yup! It's that comfortable.

4. Strong pigmentation and lasting glossy wearability

As you can see from the swatches above, the glossy pigmentation is wonderfully strong! It'll keep your lips super glossy throughout the day with a longstanding bright colour. It does take a while to dry, but once it does it stays on for hours. I suggest using only a little bit at a time, since the colour is strong enough without having to use a lot, and the moisture is enough to keep your lips glossy for a while!

The shades of the swatches above are:

015 Barcelona Nights is a bright red colour. I think it should be super flattering to most skin tones.

020 Rio Rush is the pinkest shade of the five, it reminds me of Barbie lips!

035 Miami Fever is more to the orange shade, super on trend.

040 Shanghai Sizzle is a deeper red, but still with a tinge of orange.

045 New York Scene is a deep maroon that is actually quite lighter than it seems in the box

5. Super affordable price!

For those of you on the lookout for a brand new look on a budget, Revlon's Colorstay Moisture Stain could be the one for you! It'll only cost you IDR 89.000 per tube, and that means you can pick up more than one to change it up.

So equipped with these five reasons, I think you guys are ready to visit your nearest Revlon Cosmetics counter and get your own favourite bright shades for everyday wear!

Chateau Labiotte Wine Lip Tint Review and Swatch

Beauty August 23, 2016

I apologize I havent made enough beauty reviews like I used to, simply I had too many products till I was confused which one to start with and I have been so busy with my real life to the point I dont feel like using new products as I'd like to stick with my usual daily routine

But I shall not be like this lol

So I have been using this Wine Lip Tint for months, and it's my favorite. So many people asked me on snapchat to review this product as well because everyone's crazy over its packaging. Kudos for Korean Cosmetics, they always manage to make amazing cosmetics design!

So I have 6 colors up for review. For Red shades I have RD01, RD02, RD03. Pink Shade is PK 01 and Coral Shade is CR01, while Orange is OR01

All shades are beautifully wearable for daily basis and stocking up all shades will do you justice

Scream as these wine bottles is not for consumption, beautifying your lips and giving it healthy tint serves its purpose!

I squealed as well when I saw the packaging on my hand because it's made like a real wine bottle. Cute at its finest

Let's talk about the product itself. The scent is fruity with of course a hint of grape / wine that makes you want to lick your lips lol For Indonesian, maybe you can find the scent's similarity with Sugus candies?? It's just that tasty!!

The texture is very watery and the color is pretty sheer but buildable, pretty lightweight and suitable for daily basis. It spreads easily and moisturizing due to its texture but it doesnt dry fast and has tendency to smear. Sometimes if I dont wait until it's dry, I notice that my teeth gets some stain thanks to this wine lip tint too

For some lip tint, sometimes it will leave some marks and makes your lips dry and cracked lips more visible, but thanks to its watery texture, your lips will stay moist thorough the day

From left to right :

RD 01, RD 02, RD 03, PK 01, CR 01, OR 01

RD 01 is true red shade that compliments all skin tone. I use this color the most!

RD 02 is red shade with purple undertone

RD 03 is deep burgundy red, darkest among all

PK 01 is a light dolly pink shade

CR 01 is warm coral shade, this is my daily color!

OR 01 is bright orange that brings out your complexion

Despite its pros and cons, so far it manages to land successfully into my daily make up storages which proves that it's something that I truly like and will wear until I run out of it lol

Sariayu Trend Warna Krakatau

Advertorial March 04, 2016

For every Indonesian women, I believe everyone has heard about Sariayu as it's a household name in beauty industry field locally. Sariayu which is under Martha Tilaar Group is a local beauty brand and recently they invite a lot of bloggers and vloggers to attend the launching event of Sariayu Trend Warna Krakatau

Krakatau is a wonderful volcano mountain in Sumatra and Sariayu, being a local brand seems to have agenda promoting the area around through their cosmetic line

Before the event, I was given a few products from their Sariayu Krakatau and oh my, I was freaking surprised as their lip color duo was fantastic. Their eyeshadows are very pigmented but im sorry their liquid lipstick stole the spotlight

It was amazing and revolutionary, I never thought that local brand could cater demand of real beauty enthusiast, and with affordable price + amazing quality. I apologize but being a city girl in my whole life, and using a lot of high end beauty products, I might underestimate their products

But boy I was wrong, and I was ashamed of myself. Their duo lip color products are amazing T T

The founder of Martha Tilaar Group, Ibu Martha Tilaar herself appeared on the event and gave her motivational speech to young women. She's really inspirative

In case you're wondering, I use Tasik fabric that they sent to each blogger as a scarf. It was the dresscode

Pic's taken by my dear Cheryl <3

They have a lot of shows during the event including make up demo, fashion show, live music, and contests. It was amazing and I got to meet a lot of bloggers and vloggers whom I never met before. My fault though cos I hardly attend event :x

From now on, I hope to attend more!

As I mentioned that I LOVE their Duo Lip Color so much, I decided to dedicate a video for review and swatch ^.^

The video itself is not sponsored by Sariayu, it's genuinely cos I like the products. All the bloggers who attended the same event were given the same products, a full-set of their duo lip color!!

See you guys on my next post!

La Splash Lip Couture Review and Swatch

Beauty November 06, 2015

Do you know what's the latest beauty product boom right now in lip category? Liquid Lipstick. It's been a big hit for the past 2 years and it's not stopping anytime soon

I owned myself a few Lime Crime Velvetines products but it's quite pricey, therefore a cheaper dupe is under my investigation. One of a brands that receive pretty good feedback is La Splash due to its wide selection of colors and affordable price

Guess what, I bring you here the whole collection~~~!!!!!

Packaging looks normal, with transparent plastic bottle and gold cap. The brand and product's name are printed on the same shade of gold. I love how they show the color through its transparent bottle as it's easier to check which color you'll take among other shades

The applicator tip is slightly bend and it makes the whole application easier. It's very nice to create precise line and especially on cupid's bow area

From left to right :

Innocent Vixen, Untamed, Poison Apple, Till Midnight, Forbidden, Hidden Desires, Rose Garden, Lollipop, Latte Confession, Summer Bliss, Vampire, Criminal, Ghoulish, Phantom, Malevolent, Vendictive, Venom

The color stays true to its outside color, the pigmentation is awesome and the colors are all gorgeous and different between each other. It glides smooth and one applicator take out is more than enough for your whole lip

I am not using lip liner on my lip swatch because I want to stay true to its color

Here's my personal thought on every color

Innocent Vixen

When I first tried it, suddenly I screamed "this is my perfect nude lips!"

I have been abandoning nude lips for so long because I am into bold red lips these days. It made me look sick and pale, and I hate it. However this Innocent Vixen that is a warm peachy nude shade compliments my skin and it's amazing to be used along with smokey or heavy dark eye make up. When worn alone for daily basis, it's a little bit too nude for my personal preference though

I am NC 20-25 anyway and this works well so much on me. People with similar skin shade with me, please please try this one out!

Untamed

Amazing brown lipstick that I have worn before on my last post about Kylie Jenner . I swore by this shade as it's so gorgeous! It's a dark brown with a little bit of plum shade mixed, very unique and different! This is the first brown liquid lipstick that I recommend when you wonder which one to buy!

Poison Apple

A classic red lipstick that everyone should have. It appears slightly lighter than what on the tube shows. The color is fine but nothing special, slightly too dark for my preference though. I think somebody with darker complexion would pull it off better

Till Midnight

A bright warm orange shade that screams F-U-N to be added into your collection. The orange is not too bright unlike my 3ce liquid pigments that I owned, which is good as it helps brightening up my complexion without making myself like a clown

Forbidden

A hot pink shade that reminds me of Barbie, the color is very bold and bright. I would wear it with light eye make up to make this shade the highlight

Hidden Desires

Bright purple color with pink undertone, and surprisingly I think this is the purple shade that most of people can wear. It's not too pale, yet not too dark. And since it has a bit of pink tint, it's perfectly a safe choice shall you want to try purple lipstick for the first time

Rose Garden

Pale purple shade that kinda gives ghostly vibe which is on trend right now. However it doesnt really suit me neither I like the shade. It's simply too pale and making myself look dull in the end

Lollipop

Lollipop is a light pink shade that reminds me of Strawberry Candy. I think the shade is much better for people with lighter complexion and I even almost cant pull it off as it looks too out of place on me. It gives an impression of kawaii / cute / youthful look

Latte Confession

Something that I would wear for everyday basis, is this Latte Confession, a neutral shade with a mix of brown and pink at its best. However I think it's a little bit too dark for me, somebody with slightly darker skin color than me would think that it's a good everyday color.

Summer Bliss

Summer Bliss is a bright coral shade that surprisingly is very wearable for everyone in my opinion. I would recommend this shade for anyone who's too scared to try hot pink shade like Forbidden, but still want to try bright color once in a while

Vampire

A dark burgundy shade that stays true to its name, Vampire. This color is very sexy and seductive, and really looks amazing when worn alone, or with heavy make up. The color gives subtle gothic vibe

Criminal

The darkest purple shade for La Splash Lip Coutune up to this moment and surprisingly although I did say Hidden Desires is very wearable to everyone, I LOVE Criminal the most as it's a true purple shade but since it's on dark shade, it's not too attention-seeker to be used daily. It helps boosting my confidence and for the first time I thought to myself, purple lipstick is so fun!

Ghoulish

A pale brown shade that is one of this year's color, and it's said to be the dupe for CASHMERE from Lime Crime. However I think only the chosen one who can wear this shade. It's not flattering on me, neither on my friends. It makes teeth look yellow and I look like I was a heavy smoker with dark disgusting lips and didnt have time to put lipstick yet

Any suggestion to wear it ?

Phantom

A blue purplish shade which is unique and interesting in certain way, however I have doubt to wear it more than 5 times lol

Malevolent

For those of you who are too afraid to wear black lipstick, malevolent is the choice. With almost-black shade but still with a hint of red-burgundy color, making it a little bit safer than black. For me I feel it's a mixture of Vampire and Venom, and I dont have interest to repurchase it

Vindictive

A pale blue shade that reminds me of 90's make up for some reasons lol Another Nah for me, I dont think I can wear it frequently

Venom

A true black shade, nothing else. Shall you need to release your inner dark side, pick this one, period!

This is the full swatch of my lip comparison

Here you can see the comparison of the lip colors from my FOTD

My skin is NC20-NC25 so I hope it gives you guys idea how it will turn out when it's applied on you

Regarding the product itself, I think it's almost too good to be true. First of all, it's moisturizing but it dries on matte [how I love Liquid Lipstick <3], and it's spread very easily. The color on my lips when applied, stays true to its original color. The range of shades are fantastic but there's always room to add! I wish they carry more red shades though. There's quite a chemical smell from the tube when you sniff though

It is super long lasting and non-transferrable. HOWEVER, due note that when you eat carelessly, like when the oils spread on the lips, this La Splash cracks and comes off in buds, leaving no tint underneath. The layer falls off very easily and when you retouch it, make sure that your lips is perfectly dry otherwise it will crack even more

But when you dont have anything on your lips, like maybe drinking from straw, consider it safe. So please always check your lips, as when it comes off, in my experience it's only cracked on the center and it gives my lips a very obvious outer line -.-

Despite that major problem, one minor problem is that it feels a little bit sticky when I smack my lips together

It is however very waterproof, I even tried removin it using water based remover, my Bioderma Cleansing Water, and it doesn't move an inch. So you can wear it for swimming I think? lol [Havent tried before though!] You need to cleanse it properly using oil-based, it comes off easily ^^

Pros :

Smooth and easily spreadable on lips

Very pigmented

Waterproof

Wide range of shades

Long lasting

The shades stay true to its original color when applied

Affordable price

Cons :

Has strong chemical smell from the tube

Cracks easily when you're eating carelessly

Quite tricky when being retouched

A little bit sticky when lips are smacked together

It's around 14$ but TWL sells La Splash Lip Couture in Indonesia for Rp 185.000 which is in my opinion, very very affordable. I mean, dollar is rising up and importing stuffs are very difficult these days T_T

My favorite colors are = Innocent Vixen, Untamed, Till Midnight, Forbidden, and Criminal!

Should you buy it? YES YES!!!

It is half price compared to lime crime, but you still get to have the famous liquid lipstick. It totally changes the look, so at least have one, it's a must!

See you guys on my next post!
