BLK UNIVERSAL Multi-Use Tint Duo in Nutmeg Review

Easy-peasy makeup you say?

I've found myself a favorite in the BLK Cosmetics UNIVERSAL Collection.  I've done a full IG TV on that for my initial thoughts and unboxing but this one I am really enjoying this a lot and I've been reaching for this more often!

Please spare the half face effect as I use the product only on 1 side of my face.  Can you tell which side?

B. By Banila Pink Chou Cream Review

I have a lot of favorite Cheek Tints but there's ONE that I've been using constantly for the past weeks!  It is so easy to apply I can't believe it's even a cheek tint!  (As we all know, most Cheek tints are easy-to-apply but they tend to require Flash-like fingers and hands).  With this particular one, I can actually take time in blending and applying and have a non-blotchy cheek color so natural you wouldn't know I have something on!  (Beware guys!  Another trade secret from us girls! :P)

Shade: Pink Chou Cream PK02

Php595.00 (approx $12.30)

A liquid cheek tint with a powdery finish that gives a natural-looking blush. Lightweight, buildable and is best paired with a cushion foundation.

Benefit Gogo Tint Review

I have tried ALL Benefit Tints because I've been loving the brand ever since I started Blogging.  Thankfully, the brand arrived just when I'm almost "blacklisted" from the Postal Office because I've been hoarding and shopping online too much!  

So thankfully, it was easier for me to try Benetint, Chacha Tint, Posie Tint, Lolli Tint.

Most of them, I purchased a full size after trying out their tester size and seems like their newest tint Gogo Tint is another one of those tints that will go to my collection!

Gogo tint is called a Bright Cherry Tinted Cheek and Lip Stain.

Thanks (or no thanks to Benefit) I got to try the trial sample of the Gogo Tint and I'm hooked!

Full-sized bottle looks like this, super gorgeous cap!

Tony Moly LipTone Get It Tint in Oh My Rose - A Reddish Orange Lip Color I Can Actually Wear!

I have told this too many times on my workshops, how much of an "orange lipstick-phobic" I am!  Truthfully, I may look okay for others when I wear orange lippies but I don't feel comfortable at all!  It must be my warm undertone and sallow skin that made me feel like I'm too "rusty" whenever I wear such shade.

During my last Tony Moly store visit, I was advised by the SA the top-selling shade of their newest Tony Moly Liptone Get It Tint is called Oh My Rose.  Without questions asked, without even trying out the tester, I picked it up and went straight to the cashier.

Once I got home, I went....OMG...this Oh My Rose shade doesn't look like a "rose" shade to me!  Seems like this is going to be one Reddish Orange Lip Color that I would stay away from for the rest of my life.

AMW Wears: The Body Shop Lip And Cheek Stain in Dark Cherry

Everybody loves The Body Shop Lip & Cheek Tint!  I believe it's one of the first few tints I own when I started Beauty Blogging!  It is indeed a bestseller the brand event created a cute packaging for it housed in a Geisha Doll inspired bottle.

Fast forward to year 2016, the brand finally came up with the same Lip & Cheek Tint consistency in more shades!  Wooohooo!  

Shades: Red Pomegranate, Dusty Rose, Deep Berry, Dutch Tulip, Pink Hibiscus and Dark Cherry!

And I have been wearing it alone and underneath my favorite powder blush for the past months!  Can you guess the color on my cheek?

Guess it's difficult!  I'll answer it for you --- Dark Cherry!

Which Make Up Sample Is Making You Say "I'm Buying Full Size!" ?

We all agree, we love samples!  But just how many samples have you tried in which you ended up buying full size?  At the top of my head, I would say 1%?  Truth be told, I find samples to be extremely useful!  BUT, just how many times do I get impressed with just a tiny sample?  Almost never!  But one day, as I was rummaging through my "samples basket" (yes girls!  I have one!), I chanced upon Etude House's Fresh Cherry Tint, I had like 3 small sachets of those from an event and I knew it won't give me any impact because ---

1.  I can only use this sachet once because I'm too lazy to tape it or staple it to reuse the remaining content.

2. Etude House never comes to mind when we talk about "Tints", I have a feeling it'll look too fake and bright on me.

Then THIS HAPPENED.....

Okay, you don't have to love the result on photo but my husband does!  So this definitely deserves ONE BLOG POST!

Note from author: This product is meant to be used on lips but I used on both cheeks and lips!

AMW Wears: SNOE Glam Jam Lip & Cheek Plumper Tint in Bubble Gum

So I recently received the SNOE Glam Jam Lip & Cheek Plumper Tint from the Christmas tin can that was sent from SNOE as a Holiday gift for Bloggers!  The first product that caught my attention is this Lip & Cheek Tint --- as I originally missed reading the word "Plumper".  As you all know, I have full lips so I try to steer clear from using Lip Plumpers because I may look like the "Lips walking with a face!"  (You get that joke?) 

But anyways, missing the word PLUMPER is actually nice because I could be "judgmental" when it comes to products I dare not to try!  So after trying this out with a bit of "sting" on my lips, that's when I realized it is a plumping product!  But the mistake is actually a good mistake because I see something positive about this!

My Thoughts on Tony Moly's Tony Tint Delight and The Better Application Technique

If you ask me what my favorite reddish lip and cheek tint is, hands down, my answer will be the Benetint!  (Review HERE)

But I know, the price tag may stop you especially if you're a student reading this post!  So I scoured on the next best thing --- The Body Shop's Lip and Cheek Tint.  (Review HERE)

Then, of course, I've read a lot of queries on Tony Moly's newest tint called Tony Tint Delight, priced less than Php200.00, I must give this a test and see how it goes!

Tony Tint Delight is available in 2 shades: 01 Cherry Pink and 02 Red

The Body Shop Geisha Doll Lip & Cheek Tint Review

I received this cute gift last Christmas from The Body Shop and I can't wait to share to you what it is because it is too cute to ignore!

AMW Reviews: TBS Lip and Cheek Tint

Ahhh, after a long weekend here in the Philippines!  Here comes Monday!!!  Even a cheerful and positive girl *ahem* woman like myself gets grumpy!  I am only human you know!  But a grumpy day can always be brighter for people around you if you exude a nice flush on your cheeks!  A flush off excitement, a flush of happiness! 

In today's post, I will be reviewing my first tint ever!  I know there are a lot of lip and cheek tints available in the market at the moment (a.k.a. Benetint).  Let me start with The Body Shop's first as this brand is available locally! 

Does it give me the flush I expect?
