I'm always on the hunt for interesting and fun products (let me know if you find any ok? :D ) so when I saw this RIRE Lip Powder, I knew I had to get it and test it out. Check out my video review below to see what I thought about it!

Let's get to the breakdown...

So, in typical fashion, here are the close-up pics and my written review of the product.

Packaging...

The packaging is... ok. Honestly, to me, it looks a little cheap. Plus, I don't find it that functional. As you can see in the demo that I did in the video, the handle actually makes applying the product more difficult. It doesn't allow for an accurate application and since the handle is tapered, I could see this slipping out of my fingers, dropping it, and making a mess. 

Consistency

This had the COOLEST consistency. Like the name implies, it does start off as a powder. However, magically, it turns into a liquid lipstick consistency when you apply it or rub it. I love it and it actually feels fairly moisturizing on my lips considering this started off as a powder. 

 Application
This applies really smoothly. I love how it glides onto my lips, which are usually very dry. Like I mentioned above, I'm not a fan of the packaging, but overall, the actual product was nice to apply. Plus, I really liked the color!

Overall

I didn't test this to see how long it would last, however, it did pretty much seem like a liquid lipstick stain. It does stain a little bit but you can also wipe it off for the most part. Hopefully, that makes sense. Anyways, I hope you guys enjoyed this first impressions and let me know of any other cool products you've tried!!

[Review] Memebox Urban Lady Lip and Cheek in Londoner and Dresdner

I've had these for about a month and thought it was time I did a quick review on them :) They are part of the Memebox Urban Lady Collection and you can use them on both your lips and cheeks!

Let's get to the breakdown...

Packaging

Unlike other Memebox exclusive products, you can actually see the shades of the products without having to open them! Well, kind of. My shades are so similar that I still have a hard time telling them apart without opening them. haha. But I like how sleek they are, plus I love the doe-foot applicator on these lip and cheek products. They are pointed, which helps making the application of these more accurate. 

Shades

I have shades 04 Dresdner and 05 Londoner. I like these colors a lot, especially Dresdner. It's a nice deep red and it's actually very wearable and looks great with all makeup looks. Although, I do love both shades altogether. 

 Consistency

These are SO creamy. I the consistency of these products because they just glide onto my lips. I prefer to use this on my lips because I think it's a little difficult to blend onto my cheeks. I have to work fast and I'd rather just use cream blush or other blushers and not have to worry about blending it out. 

The bottom red shade is Dresdner and the orange shade is Londoner

 Lasting Ability

These products last about 3-4 hours, but you have to reapply after that. This is because they're not necessarily lip stains, but more creamy lip products. So yes, they wear off but reapplying them isn't too difficult. This is because of that great applicator! I love it!

[Review] TONY MOLY Tony Tint Delight Lip Tint in 02

I received the Tony Moly Tony Tint Delight as a freebie with my recent haul from Beautynetkorea! I love this site and think it's awesome they give you a free full-sized product after you spend so much money. I was excited because I'd heard some good things and immediately decided to try it out.

Let's look at....

The packaging...

This is just your typical lip tint packaging. I love the shape of the cap though, which is in the shape of a heart!

Like I mentioned, the shade number I have is No. 02

The applicator...

I have mixed feelings about this applicator. I like the shape because it is pointed, which makes it easier to apply this precisely. However, the doe-foot applicator is really long, which makes it kind of difficult to use the flat side to apply it to your lips. It kind of gets everywhere. You can also see in the picture that on the flat side of the applicator, there is a fair amount of product just sitting on it. Because the bottle doesn't scrape the lip tint off for you, you end up getting it everywhere. I had to actually use my fingers to wipe off lip tint that had gotten on the skin around my lips, and then I washed my hands so it wouldn't stain. 

The color and formula....

I like the consistency of this lip tint. It's nice and watery, which makes it feel very light. It's slightly sticky at first, but once it dries, it feels nice. It's a little on the dry side, but it's not the driest formula I've encountered. As for the shade, I love these type of red colors. They look so nice, and I don't feel like I need a ton of makeup on my face to pull it off. This is also a layer-able color, so if you want it to appear darker, you can apply one coat, let it dry, and then apply another!

The wear of the formula...

Ok, so this is where is gets tricky for me again. Since this is a watery lip tint, I don't expect it to last all day. Usually with these types of lip products, expect to reapply through out the day (so take it with you if you're leaving your house for a while!) Like most lip tints, it starts to wear off in random places, so it does look a little weird after a while. In the picture below, I had it on for a couple hours, and you can see it's wearing off on the edges of my lips and really staining the dry parts of my lips (near the center). It's not terrible but it's not the most flattering thing ever so you will have to touch it up every couple of hours! 

Here's a super close up to show what I'm talking about!

[Review] Clio Virgin Kiss Lipnicure Lip Stain Color in #8 Guilty Pink

Ah, so this begins the 2 weeks of reviews everyday! For my first post in this series, I'm going to be reviewing their Clio Virgin Kiss Lipnicure in #8 Guilty Pink. Even though they're mainly known for their eye makeup, I wanted to give this product a go!

This first caught my eye while I was browsing in the Clio Store when I saw their bright display of all the beautiful, super pigmented colors. I'd heard some mixed reviews so I knew I wanted to try one myself. I picked this color in particular because it's unique, bright, and a color I think would look good on every skintone.

Let's look at:
The packaging...

I really love the packaging of this lip stain. It's cute, chic, and looks just like a little bottle of nail polish. 

The color, which is like I mentioned, #8 Guilty Pink. 

Here's a picture of the box if you're interested!

The english description...

The Korean on the side of the box....

The top of the box, which tells you what color you're buying. 

The applicator...

Whoa, this applicator is awesome. I love how it curves to your lips, which helps apply the color more evenly, and that it also has a somewhat pointed tip, which helps you apply it more accurately. This applicator is so nice and accurate, I actually don't find myself using a lip liner with it! It's also pretty sturdy, so it doesn't bend when you're using it!

The color and formula...

Like I said, I love this color. It looks nice on my skin tone and I can tell it would work well for others too. The swatch below is a pretty accurate depiction of what it looks like in real life, so it's VERY bright! And it's nice and opaque. As far as the formula goes, it's actually very creamy when you initially apply it. After it dries, it does feel a little dry. Nothing a quick layer of balm on the top of couldn't fix! It also, surprisingly, dries to a fairly matte finish, which I wasn't aware of until I started wearing it. 

The wear of the formula

OK, I'm going to be totally honest. I really want to give this lip stain an awesome review. But it's doesn't wear super nice. After a couple hours (or eating/drinking) you can see where it starts to peel/wear off. Sorry for the awkward pic, but I really wanted you to see how it wears off on the inside of the lips. However, I'm a little hesitant to dock to many points off because I have NEVER found a lip stain that wears off nicely. That's pretty much how they come off. Of course, in a perfect world, the lipstick would come off all at once and gracefully come off. But that's just not the nature of lip stains. So it's really up to your judgement!
