Lipstick collection by Faith

HI everyone, this is my first post, and as you guys know, im new in blogging so let me introduce myself.

*ehem

im the guest blogger for zuziefaith and im using the name Faith. and im 24 hehe but i dont look like it, *so they say (well, you be the judge :P)

since im on a lonnngg holiday in which i have no idea for how long, and i have too much time up my sleeves, I've decided to post something that im passionate about (embarrassingly, not medical related hehe) : A review on Lipsticks!

I have been a fan of lipsticks since i was 20 i think? and have been collecting ever since. my weakness is lipsticks, and i have come to the point of actually being guilty of owning too many. But, no one ever said theres a limit to it right ? hehe

1.First up its Inglot Matte Lip Pencil





I would describe this color as a peachy-brickstone ish color? not really good at descriptions, but from the website, it is posted as darker. but this is what I get on my lips. I really love the color, and since it is a matte finish, i think its great for daytime makeup, or for those wanting to get the no makeup makeup look. so thats that, now on to the second lipstick,



this is Freckletone from mega makeup company, MAC, and it is again, another nude from my collection, and the color is a peachy-pink color which i think is fantastic if you wanna go for a MLBB   (my lips but better) lip color. one thing i like about this one is, it does not wash me out unlike other nude colors. maybe its a warm base and since im yellow? haha but this works for me, especially if im gonna go heavy on the eyes. (heavy means eyeliner PLUS mascara; usually i'd leave out the mascara) 

up next, 




and behold, my ULTIMATE ULTIMATE favourite! the Lovemarc Lip gel by Marc Jacobs in Severine. i cant write enough of my love for this thing! 

okay, back to the shade, it is a nice, nude shade, similar to frecklestone by MAC, but i prefer this to mac as it is more on the pink side i think, and it flatters my nude look oh so well! *pengsan* haha
and i could go on and on about the finish too, it glides on so smoothly, as the name suggests, gel-like and stays matte but stil glossy? haha contradictory i know, but it is! you can have a test at the nearest Sephora! 

**and this is about the eyeliner, which i got frm the same brand, sephora gave me a mini heart attack as when i got home, i noticed the label says MARC JACOB and not MARC JACOBS.  missing the 's' so i called them up they were willing for an exchange but hmm was too lazy and i was assured by the SA that they guaranteed the authenticity of the product, and figured, a fine tip Sharpie might do the trick hehe. 






again, almost of the same color but the difference in benefit's hydra lipstick is that is has glitter hehe 
but it glides on smoothly and the color is again of some muted brick-red shade but with an added glitter! fine glitter which is fine :) otherwise, nothing special about this one, but it scores on hydration! 



okay, in a bid to minimize the amount of money i spend on cosmetics, i ventured out into drugstore lipsticks, well the product isnt at all a lipstick, rather a lipgloss-stain lip product. the shade i acquired is lolita, as frm the tube it appears mauve and slight peach (warm undertone) i like it coz it could pass off as MLBB shade hehe but with a high shine to it. nice for an evening outing or a kenduri hehe for that added bling! and, a MAJOR plus point is that it is not sticky AT ALL ! yeayerss






next up is the lip plumper from Laura Mercier in Rose Flush, this one is actually pretty sentimental to me as the brand and product was the first lip product i bought which when i was 18 hehe but the shade then was Wildberry. i like this one coz it has a nice minty feeling to it when applied, cooling i must say, and about the shade (sigh) again hehe its almost similar to what i have reviewed earlier but with a purple edge to it. but still, it is a decent lip gloss i must say, high on shine and staying power is ok, even after a meal, there would stil be a stain left. and when it is at that stage, it becomes a tad sticky for some reason idk why ? 





shocker! hehe a shade that you didnt expect to be on me haha. i got this on impulse as i love a dark lip as that was the trend then, and i thought this shade can be used as a single swipe and blended in jsut to give the lips a  flush of color. and in the picture, i think i swiped it to the max to get the color so yea, the color is buildable and when applied lightly, its just nice :) and i have yet to test it whether it glows or not but i think u need a pretty fair amount for it to be :P 





FUYOO MERAH MAK NGAH haha feeling a lil ruby woo aye? well, sadly this product is discontinued in M'sia, i think they dont bring in Rimmel anymore but managed to get this with a fair bit of discount ! i like the color, but has yet to find an occasion to wear it to :) i think it would go well with any skin color as its both warm and cool if u get what i mean hehe. the finish is thin yet glossy but im not too happy with the staying power as it runs when u drink, i mean, it really does! to the extent of turning plain water to pink! so thats why it comes with a balm at the other end of the stick, probably to seal the color. 


And thats that folks, some of my lip products from my minimal *coughs* collection :) 
p/s: at the point of typing it is raining cats and dogs! so im gonna take a snooze for a bit ! thanks for reading!  till then, 

sincerely, 
Faith.

I just don't get it.

Some people think I'm strong or as if I got it all together. As if I will pull it through. As if its all at my fingertips. The truth is, you will never know for sure whether an egg is boiled or not until u break it.
