[Review] Holika Holika Heartful Glossy lipstick in Pink Bonbon

(Wearing this lipstick in these pictures)
Hiya! I figured since it's semester break i should be more active in my inactive blog... (=_=")
I am not a huge fan of Korea products but this lipstick caught my eye when i browse through a magazine... and it has been on my wishlist since that day ! I feel like collecting them all !
 ♪\(*^▽^*)/\(*^▽^*)/
Brand: Holika Holika
Series: Heartful glossy lipstick
Origin: Made in Korea
Code: PK123 (Pink Bonbon)
Weight: 18g

Packaging: Adorable! the box have a combination of pink and blue strips reminds me of lolipop! (。◕‿◕。)
While the packaging of the lipstick itself looks quite simple. There's still strips~ And the material makes it light weight plus it's small in size so it's pretty travel friendly. 
Design: The design of the lipstick itself attracted a lot of people to buy it ! it's in heart shape ! So CUTE !!! (*^ -^*) Trust me, the heart shaped lipstick would not make it hard for you to apply this lipstick. 
The color looks scary at first #laughs. But this series is not as pigmented as Heartful Moisture lipstick series, so the color looks natural and not very pigmented.

Here's the prove ! it's not pigmented and looks very light. Recommended for beginners and people who love natural make up. If you want the colour to more visible, simply apply more than one time! (◡‿◡✿)
I wanted the orange one at first, but this one makes me look healthier, cause i look quite pale and white sometimes~ 
 
 Quality: The quality of the packaging is quite fragile. It's made out of tin-like material so it feels like it's going to break whenever you drop it on the floor. @_@
(Above: sunlight ; below: indoor light)
I seriously have no complaint for the quality of this product -besides the packaging that is....
It's not dehydrating, and it's the only lipstick i dared to apply without any lipcare products. #truestory
It lasts on my lips for quite a long time ! I wore this during my photoshoot for Yuuki Asuna. There was a whole lot of rain, sun, drinking and eating but it's still there ! (づ。◕‿‿◕。)づ It lasts incredibly long ! #loves
Price: Average for me. Usually, i would say this price range is expensive for me. I brought it without any promotion and from a retail store. BUT it is totally worth it ! So i have to say it's okay to use the normal retail price to buy this baby. I love it with all my heart !

So hope my review helps !

[Review] Maybeline Color Sensational Lipcolor in coral crush

ALOHA ! Here comes another review ~ bwahahahha !
Behold !!!
Brand: Maybeline New york
Series: ColorSensational Lipcolor
Origin: Made in U.S.A
Code: 515 (Coral Crush)
Weight: 4.2g (0.15oz)

Packaging: Nice, but not very attractive to me. It's plain ~ But the good thing is you can use stickers to decorate it ! \(^ω^\)

Design: Now this is what attracted me to buy this lipstick. The design of the colour is just irresistible ! ♥‿♥
Ultra pigmented! It's so suitable for people in Malaysia. Because we're living in a country that have summer 24/7. So this colour kinda reminds me a mixture of summer and spring so i have to buy it !
Also, some red colour makes you look old and out of fashion, but this coral-reddish colour makes me look so korean-like and unlike my usual lipstick, this makes me looked so energized ! ヾ(●⌒∇⌒●)ノ

(above: sunlight ; below: indoor light)
Quality: Sadly, it's quite dehydrating.... (• ε •) So you must put on lipcare before applying this lipstick. As it's more focus on the pigmentation rather than caring your lips. (`・ω・´)
The colour disappears after 2-3 hours. So remember to touch up ! (●´ω`●)
It have an awkward scent that kinda bothers me ~~ I dont know... i dont like it ~ I am more of a fan of strawberry scented lip products. (ღ˘◡˘ღ) 

Price: Cheap and affordable ! ♪\(*^▽^*)/\(*^▽^*)/
I got it from my college's flea market, there are a few cosmetics brand invited that day and Maybeline is one of them ! I am so lucky to brought it in half of retail price !
(I'm wearing the lipcolor in this picture)
So i guess that's it ! Hope my review helps !
tata ! \(^○^)人(^○^)/

Candy Doll lipstick and lipgloss [review]

Sorry for the late update. I pretty busy with assignments and event at the moment so ~~ yea xDD
Today's review~ Candydoll's lipgloss in cotton candy and lipstick in ramune pink.
(note: most of the pictures is not edited with lighting so that you can have a good look on the colours)
I'll start with the lipstick first.
Brand: Candy Doll
Origin: Made from Japan
Code: Ramune pink
Weight: 3.5g
Produced by: Tsubasa Masuwaka
(large image so that you can read)

It can stand. Sadly the description behind the product is written in Japanese... i have no idea what the ingredients is ...
The strips makes it look kinda ... cheap and fragile (it feels fragile cause it's made of plastic and light metal)... but it's not fragile at all ! I dropped it 3 times and it still looks the same!!! xD #true story

(left: flash ; right: no flash)
This is how the colour looks like, it's looks very nude ~ suitable for gyaru make up.
(left: no flash ; right: with flash)
So this is how it looks like on my lips ~  it feels matte and looks matte ~ Not dehydrating but not moisturising as well ~ 
(not edited with any effects)
so this is how i looks like with the lipstick on. I was standing under the sun light so it looks pale ~ But this colour can drive others attention towards your eyes.
Now time for lipgloss in cotton candy !
Brand: Candy Doll
Origin: Made from Japan
Code: Cotton Candy
Weight: 6.8g
Produced by: Tsubasa Masuwaka

(large image)
(up: flash ; bottom: no flash)
The design of the product is similar with their lipstick, strips ~ feels plastic and average ~ 
Here's the sponge applicator.  Sadly, the stopper that is suppose to stop the lipgloss from sticking onto the applicator is a failure.

SWATCHES TIME ! =D
So here's swatches of lipgloss and the lipstick. Their pigmentation is quite good, lipgloss looks juicy ~
So this is how i looks like with the lipgloss on ~ It looks juicy right ? (and feel sticky too).
This lipgloss is superb sticky ... When you first apply it, it looks so dollish ! #loves

I wore it in my Akiyama Mio cosplay during Animax carnival 2013. It disappears after 3 hours i need to reapply it ~

The price was quite reasonable because i got them during Sasa's anniversary sales.

Hope my review helps ! =D
