Sephora Cream Lip Stain Review

Image taken from Pinterest.

Pictured above is the lip stain that I bought: Vintage Rosewood. It was supposed to be a dupe for Jeffree Star's Calabasas Lip Ammo but his products don't ship here so I had to settle for the next best thing.

I ordered this colour online because Sephora Malaysia was having 20% off their products and I got this for cheap. Plus I was a member and I got an even better discount. 

Let me start of by saying this is the PERFECT nude for people with medium to dark skin tones. It absolutely POPS! I am dark skinned.

The formula on this one is BEAUTIFUL. The lip stain is very moisturizing. It doesn't dry off your lips. It doesn't amplify the creases on your skin. It doesn't transfer aka IT'S KISS-PROOF! Extremely long-lasting! One dunk and one swipe thereafter is enough to cover the whole lips. Settles pretty easily on the lips too upon application. 

I have eaten food with these on and oh my oh my oh my it didn't run off one bit! And I was eating greasy wurst platter! Such a quality product for such a bargain price. Mucho amor! 

I would definitely repurchase! In other colours too, ahem.

Nyx Liquid Suede Metallic Matte Review

Picture taken from Pinterest.

I have always been a fan of Nyx. They have the best (and craziest) colour schemes you can think of. Blue lipsticks, metallic purple eyepaints you name it. I bought their Nyx Liquid Suede in Amethyst (non metallic version). Pictured above is their Biker Babe colour swatch that I bought. 

I am honestly disappointed with this line. The formula is absolutely DREADFUL. The pigment and colour is beautiful, no doubt, but the formula stinks balls. You need only dunk once and can swipe for the entire lips. The pigment is very good, just like their non-metallic line. But it dries the fuck up on your lips. I have never worn a lip colour that dried my lips like this. I had to keep licking my lips to moisten it! I have thick, full lips so you can understand why this was like pasting plaster on my lips! Every crease of my lips was visible and I looked like a mummy!!!

The colour suits me though and I really love the shine/shimmer on this bag girl. I just don't like how drying the formula is. Good god to me this is a flop. Because you definitely need to add lip gloss/balm on it to moisten it which is like, extra work for a lip colour. People just want to slather and move on, yo.

I would not repurchase this.
