Feedback Time! Ever Bilena Matte Lipsticks

Hey Guys!

Before anything else, I can't believe HBC featured my San San HD Concealer review on their Facebook account. :)


Even though I pointed out some negative things about this product, they were open to criticism. I'm really impressed. No wonder they are successful.


Anyhoo! I'm going to share with you guys what I think about the Ever Bilena Matte Lipsticks. To our foreign friends, if you are planning to visit the Philippines, I highly recommend trying this product because of the variety of colors available.


You can choose from 19 colors. (Sorry not just 16!)


So far I have 3 colors. The first one I got was the Storm. Then I was craving for a darker color, so I bought the Dusk. Then I noticed Pink Flame was popular, so I bought it also.

The top comes off. Yes you can use them!


I remember the beauty consultant told me to apply this first before the lipstick to avoid drying. It's like a tinted balm. I have never used them. It's actually my first time opening the top.


Here's the ingredients and product description:

 This is the box of Pink Flame.


Swatch of the lipstick and the tinted balm:
The glossy ones are the balm.


Here's how they look like on my lips:

Dusk (somewhat Maroon)

Storm (somewhat Crimson)

https://fbcdn-sphotos-d-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/t1.0-9/q73/s720x720/10262107_10202850322971512_2461571955722734057_n.jpg
Pink Flame (somewhat Deep Pink)


In person, the colors are darker and more vibrant compared to the pictures. My favorite would be Storm. I love how it looks on me. I look mature and classy. I get a lot of compliment when I'm wearing that color.

Compared to other matte lipsticks, this one is quite easy to apply. Yes quite, because sometimes it's hard to apply. It's easy to remove but it will leave a stain on your lips which I really love because I don't need to worry about looking pale after eating or drinking. It may be matte but it will transfer to anything.


To summarize, here's what I love and hate about the Ever Bilena Matte Lipsticks. Please take note that these are what I encountered. Our lips differ so what worked for me might not work for you, vise versa.

What I HATE!
  • Packaging. The cap comes off easily. I really hate it! After several use, it's loose already. Everytime I reach for my lipstick inside my pouch, it doesn't have a cap on. Very unhygienic!
  • Paraben. Might be unhealthy.

What I LOVE! 
  • Color Variety. So many colors available. Love it! :)
  • Texture. Pretty much easy to apply.
  • Finish. Doesn't make your lips look dry.
  • Pigment. The colors are vibrant. Except for the balm.
  • Price. Darn cheap! 165 (approx. US$4).

Re-purchase?
- Of course! :) I'm definitely trying the other colors.

Recommend?
- Big YES because it's not drying compared to other matte lipsticks in the market.

Kiss Mark?

Thank you for checking my review on this product.

Tata for now! :)

Feedback Time! Revlon Super Lustrous Crème Lipstick in Certainly Red..


Happy Hearts Day! :)


It's that time of the year again where lovers bond and babies are made. Lol! :) So let me greet you guys,


Btw, we already celebrated Valentine's yesterday to avoid the rush so I'm proud to brag that I don't have a lonely heart. :) Anyway, since this day is all about red, I'm here to make a review on Revlon Super Lustrous Crème Lipstick in Certainly Red.


Revlon has a very long history. When I did some research about the company, I'm not surprised that they started off selling nail enamels. Almost every cosmetic company out there, either local or international, starts with nail polishes. Revlon was founded back in 1931 and started selling polishes in the department stores and drug stores in 1937. This company is so diverse, their products ranges from makeup to fragrances. Come check out their local Facebook account and their international website to see what they have for you.



The Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick comes in 82 shades and 4 fabulous finishes. Infused with mega-moisturizers to seal in color and softness. Find your lip color amongst a dazzling array of 82 shade in 4 fabulous finishes of Matte, Pearl, Crème and Shine.



I always use this lipstick back when I was a Casino Dealer. I love the color, so does my players. This was my signature lipstick then. The color, like what the name says, is certainly red. I love how it looks on me because it makes me stand out from the crowd.

The lipstick looks like this when it's new,


But when used, like mine, it will soon look like this:

Lol! :) I told you it was my signature lipstick. I use it everyday back then that's why it's almost gone now. I got the color Certainly Red. It actually gives an old hollywood vibe.

 Here's a swatch on my arm:

The texture is creamy. Yes, that's a boo2x.. :(


Here's what it looks like on my lips:

https://scontent-a-lax.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-frc3/t1.0-9/q77/s720x720/10014601_10202849530191693_3339039418853653007_n.jpg
See! Very nice, diba?


The product is creamy and easy to apply. Just be careful because the product easily transfers to anything it touches. For the longevity, I would say not that long. After eating or drinking, expect it to be gone already. As for the price, I don't remember how much I got it. I think it's around 600 pesos?


To summarize, here's what I love and hate about the Revlon Super Lustrous Crème Lipstick. Please take note that these are what I encountered. Our lips differ so what worked for me might not work for you, vise versa.

What I HATE!
  • Longevity. Doesn't last long. Doesn't even stain the lips so you would really need to re-apply after eating or drinking.
  • Messy. In a way that it easily transfer.
  • Packaging. The logo is all gone. :(

What I LOVE!
  • Texture. It's easy to apply.
  • Variety. So many colors available.
  • Finish. I love the finish! It makes your lips look soft and moisturized.

Re-purchase?
- Yes I will but I would probably try a different color or maybe their matte version.

Recommend?
- Definitely yes! Though the product doesn't last long. It's a very nice lipstick.

Kiss Mark?
