Clinique Pop Matte's Blushing Pop is a Perfect Nude!

I am so obsessed with Nudes and Brown lipsticks nowadays I almost do not wear much color on my lips!  I have a recent favorite shade for daily use and I've found it in none other than one of my favorite skincare brand of all time --- Clinique!

Under the Clinique Pop line, I knew this line has more vibrant and vivid shades!  It was a lovely surprise to see this color on counter and I fell in love!

You get my point why this is a-must daily lip color?

Clinique Pop Matte in Blushing Pop

If you read my previous post on the recent launch of Clinique's Pop Matte Lipsticks, you can see that the packaging is so cute because you get the exact color of the packaging and the lipstick shade!  So imagine owning lots of these and having them displayed on your dresser table?  

My first Pop Matte lip color is in shade 6 Rose Pop and that is my ultimate "Look at me!" shade.  If I am off to an event or party, I really go for that because it lifts my whole face giving me that "I know how to party vibe!"  

Sleek MakeUP True Colour Lipstick Barely There Review

Dear AMW Friends!  It's Monday once again and time flew by super quickly I seriously don't know how to even slow down everything!  The week will past by quicker because of the jampacked schedule I'm seeing at the moment!  Have a super important project this Sunday so I have to be chill and wear a good lipstick!  :P  #SwabeBaAngEntrada ?

I own this Sleek MakeUP True Colour Lipstick in shade Bare There There and I didn't even touch this for months because I thought the shade is very sheer (blame the word SHEEN on box which I automatically read as sheer...whut???) and ahm...barely...there.  Thankfully, I was wrong!  So wrong I'm hitting my head right now because this is such a gorgeous shade YOU and ME shouldn't miss this out!

Bare With Me with NYX Matte Lipstick

Happy Labor Day!

It's May 1 and still a holiday in our country!  As much as I would love to be resting like a princess, I have to say, there will never be one if you're a mom!  Nothing I'm complaining about for sure because I'm enjoying every single moment of it (if you follow me on IG stories).

Talk about resting, I have featured a couple of "nude" or "MLBB" lippies but this one definitely goes to: "I definitely look sick wearing this but the shade is so pretty I have to feature it!"

You get it, right?  The shade Bare With Me from NYX Matte Lipstick is such a gorgeous color you want to make it work especially if you have my skin tone, I will be honest with you, it looks more forgiving on photos but I look so washed out in person I need to pile another color on top for me to look like a healthy woman in her 30s.

But I have to stress again and again, even if this shade doesn't work for me, it still deserves a FULL page feature because .....

It is a Matte Lipstick that actually glides easily even on dry, parched lips.

The NYX Matte Lipstick is housed in a simple black bullet packaging with a "Peek-a-poo" clear plastic at the center for you to see the exact shade of the lipstick without opening the cap.  Great job in packaging department guys!

The color Bare With Me is a cool tone peach pink nude color that finishes off satin matte.  You get 0,16 oz of product per tube.

Etude House Dear My Wish Lips-Talk in BE101 Review

I have always been honest about how "sickly" I look whenever I wear light-colored lipsticks, especially nudes and cool-toned pinks!  But whenever I browse through lipstick area in makeup stores, I am always drawn to those shades!  I guess at the back of my head, I want to look "sick", no!  Just joking, seriously, at the back of my head, I am in love with this shade and I love seeing other girls where such shades so I want to make it work on me!  

Etude House Dear My Wish Lips-Talk in BE101 was love at first look!  I'm not joking, I literally just twisted the lipstick up from the tube and grabbed one right away!  No swatching, no testing, no nothing!  It was spur of the moment and I trusted my heart.

Ang dami kong drama for a lipstick no?  Sorry na, Monday eh!

I have tried Dear My Wish Lips-Talk lipsticks from Etude House and BE101 have the similar creamy, lightweight, very comfortable when applied on lips texture.  Thankfully, the color is highly pigmented and I get the exact shade from tube applied on lips in just a single swipe!

It doesn't hurt that it's housed in a cute pink tube with a nice silver pink ribbon!  So dainty and girly I don't mind bringing this out and do some retouch inside the ladies' room.

AMW Wears: Maybelline Rosy Matte by ColorSensational

So NUDES are really in huh?  And I'm talking about Lipsticks! 

Maybelline's powerful lip franchise Color Sensational went crazy over colors early this year!  You don't believe me?  Take a look at my lip swatches on the previous Velvet Matte by ColorSensational line.

As much as I'm very much impressed with bold lip statement, the high pigmentation, creamy matte formulation that glides on lips like a  dream, there are days I just want the "girl-next-door" look.  Thankfully, Maybelline came up with their Rosy Matte by Color Sensational and by far, my favorite line of all!

There are a total of 5 worthy shades to choose from ----
Out of the 5, I immediately got drawn to shade number 3, 4 and 5 (from left).  But a decision cannot be made without wearing them!  And I'll tell you if I made the right choices!
