Product Review: Natura Organics Organic Luscious Lipstick

     Hello dearies! I'm back with a series of product reviews from Natura Organics. Ms. Jessica of Natura Organics Essentiel sent me these pretty lipsticks last January as a birthday gift. I was surprised when I received all the four shades of their Organic Luscious Lipstick. The first shade on the photo below became an instant fave! I love the shade because I can wear it everyday for that no makeup makeup look. When my mom and sisters saw this on my stash, they're very giddy to make their own swatch too. After applying the lipstick, my mom noticed that she looked younger. The shade she used compliments her skin tone- Tuscany Rose. My younger sister wanted to try a red-orange color that will suit her complexion. She chose Mauve Rose and after applying it on her lips, she was amazed that even without lip balm prior to the application, it didn't dried out her lips. Wanna know my thoughts about these pretty lipsticks? Click CONTINUE READING to find out!

Product Review: Snoe Beso Balm

     This lip balm has been on my wish list for quiet some time. I wasn't able to get a hold of this because I've got more than 4 lip balms on hand that I use alternately everyday. I want to consume everything before buying a new one since most of the lip balms I have were organic so the life span is shorter than rest of the lip balms that I have. I already made a review of my fave lip balm, Carmex and EOS and even though they're my HG's I'm still looking for something that will not only moisturize my lips but will give me more stinging minty sensation after every application. I love minty lip balms. I also read somewhere that lip balms can also give a plumping effect on your lips so this reason made me look for a lip balm that will moisturize and plump lips in one application. When Snoe Beso Balm hit their shelves long time ago, I said to myself this will be added to my long list of "to buy" products. 

     I love reading literature, aka product information. While I was reading the description of this lip balm, the word "freshens breath" caught my attention. Never heard or tried a lip balm that will do that! So this lip balm will not only give you 1 but 3 times the goodness in a tube.

size: 

price: 149php (Around $3.50+)

place bought: Snoe Beauty kiosk at Cinderella Sm, Fairview

instruction for use: Use before kissing or whenever you feel like it.

ingredients: Cocos nucifera (coconut) oil, Halianthus (sunflower) seed oil, Beeswax, Mentha Viridis (Spearmint) leaf oil, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea Butter), Tocopheryl Acetate, Octyl Methoxycinnamate, Menthol, Benzophenone 3, Blue1 (CI 42090), Yellow5 (CI 19140)

Snoe Beso Balm
And in Action! I have a slight dry upper lips but when I apply Beso Balm, it becomes moisturized after a couple of minutes. I just applied the lip balm in this photo. Less fine lines too!

What I like:

• The price is affordable.
• I super love the minty feel on my lips after application. 
• I like the cold and tingle feeling that leaves on my lips long after the application.
• Makes my lips smooth and healthy looking. My lips looks dewy too.
• I use this before I sleep at night and when I wake up, my lips are smooth with less lines.
• The packaging is not flimsy and doesn't look cheap. Love the black and green combination.
• Glides smoothly and not greasy at all.
• No waxy feel and not heavy on my lips.

What I don't like:

• The cap has no seal. Sometimes I doubt if the lip balm is exposed or opened accidentally while on display.
• No batch, manufacturing and expiration date on the package.
• Haven't noticed any plumping on my lips.
• No spf :(

Will I repurchase? Yes!

Recommendation:

     I give this a 4.5/5 rating. I'm a lip balm girl :D Expect this product to sit on my makeup kit as this earned a spot as one of my fave lip care product as of the moment. I love the tingling sensation it gives that's perfect for the insane heat. But this lip care doesn't have spf so if you'll go swimming or go outside the house in the morning, please use another lip balm with spf to protect your lips from UVA/UBV. But all in all, my experience with this lip balm is so good! Will definitely buy a back up soon :)

     Have you tried Snoe Beso Balm? What's your current lip balm? Thanks for sharing!

Good Times!~

Product Review: Snoe Rouge Deluxe Complete Lip Care in X7 Just Peachy

     After raving about MAC Girl About Town, here's another lipstick that will make your day bright. Yes, this shade brings good vibes to me whenever I'm wearing it. I get lots of compliment whenever I'm sporting this shade from Snoe Beauty. I love that Snoe delved deeper in producing makeups that doesn't contain synthetic materials. They're taking the local skin care and cosmetic industry by storm and most of the beauty bloggers that I know loves a product or two from Snoe.

     Without further ado, I will now share my thoughts on Snoe Rouge Deluxe Complete Lip Care in X7 Just Peachy. This came from the loot that was given to me during the Snoe Beauty Bloggers Event. I chose Just Peachy because I wanted to try a peach based lipstick and see if I can pull it off. Guess what? First impression really do last! So read more to find out ^_^

     Snoe's Rouge Deluxe is an oil-infused rich and creamy lip color in the season's hottest hues. It will hydrate, nourish, and revitalize lips. While delivering long-lasting color, this product works to smoothen and soften the lips, making your pout extra kissable. Edited to only the most fashionable shades, it's impossible to pick just one.

Product Review: Covergirl NatureLuxe Gloss Balm in Hibiscus

     Hi lovelies! How's your day? It's raining cats and dogs outside so to those who are staying outside their houses today don't forget to bring your rain gadgets (umbrella, rain boots, rain coat, scarfs, etc) to keep you dry and warm. This cozy weather is perfect for movie marathon while sipping a hot cup of your favorite drink. As for me, the stay-at-home mom that's always at home obviously and bumming around with my son wants to go out and spend some time at the mall. I'm craving for milk tea and yogurt :D I guess will have to get my milk tea fix at 7-11 . 

   

     Before going outside, I just wanna share this review on Covergirl's Gloss Balm from the NatureLuxe collection.The line features a new generation of makeup luxury that are lightweight and do not contain a ton of synthetic ingredients. This lip gloss was included from the Everyday Essentials Loot  that I won from The Beauty Junkee's 3rd Grand Anniversary Giveaway. I actually have two bullets of this gloss and I gave the other one to my sister. The shade is 215 Hibiscus and I think flatters most skin color. 

Covergirl NatureLuxe Gloss Balm in Hibiscus
Natureluxe Gloss Balm exchanges select heavier emollients for natural mango, shea and other butters which are lighter, more luxurious feeling alternatives.
 The Gloss Balm is part of CoverGirl Natureluxe, a luxury makeup line that exchanges select heavier synthetics for carefully-chosen natural ingredients, while delivering a polished makeup look and a lightweight feel.
Natureluxe Gloss Balm contains a lightweight blend of mango, shea and other natural butters, used in place of heavier feeling emollients. Mango and shea butters are lighter and more luxurious-feeling than heavier, synthetic emollients. The formulation provides an occlusive barrier that helps protect lips against drying elements like the sun and wind.

What I like:

• The product contains mango, shea and natural butters so I guess there's a lesser synthetic emollient in the ingredients.
• Gives moisture to the lips.
• Has a nice pop of color and glossy finish.
• The container is sleek.
• It has SPF 15 so you get a good amount of sun protection for your lips.
• Has manufacturing and expiry date stamped on the container.
• Smells good :D
• Has wide selection of colors.

What I don't like:

• Wears off easily.
• Quite pricey for a lip gloss. 

Will I repurchase? Maybe. It's a nice gift for college students or girls who likes subtle color on their lips. This is also a great gift for office girls who likes lip gloss with a hint of color.

Recommendation:

     I give this a 3.75/5 rating. It's a nice lip gloss with a hint of color that you can use everyday. I just wish it contains more amount of product. Since I'm a cheapskate and will only spend my money for budget-friendly cosmetics, I have to pass this one. I'll recommend this to a friend and suggest this as a great gift for those who loves prettifying their lips for casual look.

     What brand of lip gloss do you own? Thanks for sharing guys! Stay safe and have a blessed Sunday everyone :D

Good Times!~

Product Review: Human Heart Nature Lip Balm in Wild Berry

     I'm a lip balm girl! I consider this as one of my makeup must haves. I've tried so many brands before but only a few became my favorites. If you want to know my faves you can view my review here and here. Since I already tried an organic lip balm from a western brand, I'm on a look for something that is manufactured locally. It's obvious that I'm going gaga over organic stuff and Human Heart Nature includes my list. This brand is not new to me because I've already tried different skin care products before and I must admit that their products are affordable and effective. 

     This lip balm was inside the Maven's loot bag that I received from the mall tour. I'm surprised when I saw this flavor and the catchy packaging color. When I visited their website, I read that this lip balm was reformulated so it's nice to know that they improved their formula. I wish my hands got hold of their old formula so that I can have a comparison on my review. Looking back at their web page, there are also three exciting flavors to try: Peppermint, Tutti Frutti and Choco Fudge. The two latter flavor looks yummy and I need to resists this temptation of buying those because I still have two other lip balms on my kikay kit. I wanted to buy a back up on my organic lip balms including this but the shelf life is short so I really need to finish everything first. 

     Are you excited on my review? So here's my take on Human Heart Nature 100% Natural Lip Balm in Wild Berry. The flavor is very yummy and the scent for me is so addicting. Read more and discover another lip balm that's a steal and of course organic and why this product is a keeper :)))

Maven's Beauty Mall Tour + New BFs

     Hi loves! How's your week doing so far? My Monday started not so well. I had headache the whole day yesterday and today. I'm afraid that my body is already immune with Mefenamic Acid- my one and only pain buddy. Ibrupofen and Paracetamol are not working for me anymore. Boo! Maybe I should consult a doctor about this. Anyway, here's what happened a couple of weeks ago. I attended Maven's Beauty Mall Tour last July 14 (Saturday) at Trinoma Cinema lobby and met new BFs :D

I enjoyed talking to them and sharing them my passion about skin care and makeup. I also want to thank them for their advice. There's no dull moment that day. I'm blessed because I found new friends who accepted me for who I am. I really, really enjoyed their company :)))

Product Review: Classic Carmex Moisturizing Lipbalm in a Jar

     Are you suffering from dry and chapped lips? Mine does! If the weather is cold, my lips becomes dry and flaky. I hate it when I look in the mirror and I always see dead skin on top of my lips, I really wanna peel it off. Ugh. Thank goodness there's Carmex! If you're a follower of my blog, prolly you know that I made a post on my first Carmex lip balm in a tube and it became my HG lip balm. I already finished the tube and I'm glad that I have a new one. But this time, it's another variant of Carmex. I got this baby from the Everyday Essentials Loot that I won from The Beauty Junkee's 3rd Grand Anniversary Giveaway.

     After using this for two weeks, I'm totally hand's down to this product :D Here's my take on another keeper!!!

I used a mini spatula to scoop out the product and put here in my hand.

Classic Carmex Moisturizing Lipbalm in a Jar
Without Carmex, just ignore the reflection on my lower lips.

Classic Carmex Moisturizing Lipbalm in a Jar
With Carmex, just a hint of shine- soft and moisturized lips! Pardon if in this photo it looks like I just ate an oily food, it's the reflection of the light and mirror. I used my phone to take this photo with a mirror behind it.

What I like:

• Simple packaging, the hubby doesn't mind using this lip balm in public because for him the jar is for "unisex" meaning not a girly or fancy thing.
• I love the tingling sensation it gives right after application. It leaves a cool and minty feel.
• Inexpensive.
• Not waxy and sticky.
• I apply this whenever I have blisters on my lips and it soothes the irritation.
• My lips felt soft and smooth after application.
• There's a product information printed on the package with expiry date.

What I don't like:

• The packaging can be unhygienic for me because sometimes I feel lazy using my mini spatula to scoop out the product. 

Will I repurchase? Yes! I'm using this daily morning and evening so a jar will not last that long. The hubby uses this too so I need to buy a back up soon.

Recommendation:

     I give this a 4.5/5 rating. This product is really effective! It's affordable too. What more can I say? It relieves and moisturises. This is my HG lipbalm :D

     Have you tried Carmex lip balms?What's your favorite?Share!

Evolution Of Smooth ( EOS ) Smooth Sphere Lip Balm- Summer Fruit
Left: Summer Fruit- this is the flavor I'm reviewing here
Right: Honeysuckle Honeydew- supposed to be reviewed here but  I gave it to my sister     

     Hi lovelies! I've been lemming for this lip balm longtime and now the long wait is over. Last week, my package arrived and I fell in love when I saw this cute little baby. The moment I saw it, something came up in my mind. This lip balm is like Iglot. A tele serye aired in chanel 7 about a creature hatch from a polka-dotted egg.

    I know there are lots of reviews about this lip balm. Since I mentioned it's like Iglot, you already know what brand it is. This is the infamous EOS. This highly raved lip balm is famous for its spherical shape. You can click here for more info on EOS.

This is the plastic seal where all the information on the product is printed

What I like:

• It's organic and not tested on animals. 
• No petroleum or paraben. 
• Affordable 
• Glides smoothly on lips. 
• I love lip balms in fruitty flavors. 
• The unique shape and color of the packaging is really cute. It can also stand on its own. 
• The scent is not overpowering. 
• Because of its sphere shape, it can reach the corners of the lips. 
• Sealed with plastic upon purchase so you know it's fresh.

What I don't like:

• The expiry date is stamped only in the plastic seal not in the packaging itself. 
• No spf like the Carmex Cherry tube.

Will I repurchase? Yes! I want to try other flavors like the sweet mint and lemon drop with spf. Actually I also have the honeysuckle honey dew flavor but I gave it to my sister.

Recommendation:

     I give this a 4.5/5 rating. I recommend this lip balm to everyone who wants to moisturize their lips prior to lipstick application. But if you're looking for something with spf, this flavor is not for you. You can purchase lemon drop though. Since Christmas is near, this is a wonderful gift for everyone.

     Do you have EOS lip balm? Share your thoughts. 

Good Times!~
