Laura Mercier High Vibe Lip Color Review

 

Laura Mercier has been a staple brand in every Make Up Artists Kit.  Mostly, I own their foundation, primer and their famous Loose Setting Powder.

Little did I know I am missing a lot when I finally got my hands on their newest lipstick line called High Vibe Lip Color.

Laura Mercier says ---

Imagine your lips coming to life with the most alive and vivid color.
High Vibe Lip glides sensuously onto lips delivering impactful vivid color in just one effortless stroke.

Supercharged pigments and light-reflecting, vivid pearls boost color vibrancy while Guava oil ensures a comfortable smooth wear for 6 hours.

Offered in 16 high energy colors inspired by Laura Mercier’s vision that a touch of color can brighten your life.

Swatch: Top Peek, Bottom Buzz

AMW says ---

• Packaging is very sleek and catchy.
• Wearable shades.
• Very natural on lips.
• Comfortable on lips.
• Both colors are so nice and natural.
• Does not sit on dry lip lines.
• Long-wearing. 

Peek is a warm tone dark coral shade that looks so pretty on my NC20 warm tone skin.

Green on green Casual Wear

I used to dislike long skirts as they make me feel small!  But fast forward to growing older - way older - and maybe a huge change in fashion on how people are more open to different fashion style.  I find myself leaning more on to long, flowy skirts as opposed to short skirts which I used to love years back.  

I have to thank Motherhood for that.  Motherhood changed not only my outlook in life but also my fashion style.  I always wear clothes that can make me move freely.  Yes, even with an 11 year old, I still need the energy and freedom to move around because BOYS will always be BOYS :) 

During the summer, I enrolled my son to a Kiddie Chef program at TGIFridays and I was there daily to watch over him.  That said, it was a trial and error method as well for me in fashion sense to try styles I haven't tried before.

Because waistcoat is a thing year 2024, I picked my favorite waistcoat I bought from SM Department Store and paired it with a green long skirt which I bought from a bazaar.

Paired my super comfy Skechers flats, I kinda like this look a lot and would totally repeat this look!

It's comfortable, I don't have to worry about legs showing whenever I sit down - high chair or sofa or even if I squat to help out my son, I felt comfortable enough to say - I am a cool yet fashionable mom!

That's how I felt and confidence is key to a successful look!

How do you like this look?

Issy &. Co. Active Concealer Review

 

Natural concealer that is buildable in coverage and lightweight in nature.

That's the Issy & Co. Active Concealer which I finished up since I received this last year.  It is an easy daily concealer you can use that won't make you look too made up but lightweight enough to add more layers for more coverage.

PM3 is the shade I got and it has the right amount of "warmth" to cover up some of my undereye darkness.  

You can see unfiltered photo below, left side facing you is the one with concealer while totally bare faced on the other side.  Can you see how it covers my dark undereye?

Swatch: PM3

Best to set the product properly with powder as this will glide off especially if you have oily skin.  I have dry skin but I still choose to set this for better and even coverage.  The Issy & Co. Active Concealer works even alone, I prefer to choose this over foundation anytime just to spot conceal and set my whole face with powder.  

You get the no-makeup makeup look in an instant and your face will look lifted.
