Loving Lipsticks Again



Lately, it's been all about the liquid lipsticks. I went through a phase where I just was not interested in any lip product unless it's a liquid lip. Not swatching it, not buying it. Lately though, I've been missing the hydration of stick lipsticks. A number of brands have also been coming out with entire lines of bolder, better-formulated and pigmented lipsticks so I thought it's time to give the matte liquid lips a break and rekindle my affair with the classic yet rejuvenated stick lipstick. Hence, my recent lipstick haul. Got me a couple of @maccosmetics#liptensity lipsticks and some @makeupforeverphilippines artist rouge. Gotta say, it's been pretty good so far. They've all been pigmented, creamy and lovely but It's still way too early to commit to an opinion. The @makeupforeverofficial #artistrouge M102 (pictured above) though is making me feel things. As soon as I put this on, I fell in love. This is a must-see, must-swatch, must-buy.

Brush Review. The MAC 221 Mini Tapered Blending Brush. It's described in the MAC website as a shadow-blending brush used for application and blending of powders. I've vacillated between getting this brush and a flat shader brush because I thought it might be redundant with my 224. It isn't. It applies shadows in a more precise and targeted manner than my 224. Simply, the track of color it leaves behind is thinner and smaller so if you want to do more detailed work, this is a must-have. This is also velvety soft. No scratchiness at all, unlike the 224. The way I use this brush, I apply my crease color, which is usually dark or medium brown, blend it out a little using a window wiping motion. After, I use my 224 to apply my transition color, usually a light brown or tan, at the top part of my crease and blend that out a little as well using the same side to side motion. I gotta say, this is one of my best brush purchases due to the uniqueness of its utility and how gosh-darn soft it is. Good news, this was a limited edition brush but is now permanent. Bad news, during my vacillating period, I've noticed that MAC stores only have 1 or 2 of this brush in stock so if this becomes more popular it might be difficult to find.
