Review: Detail Makeover Matte In Lipstick

-

Whenever I pass by the mall's beauty section, I couldn't help but swatch lipsticks. While I was on my usual swatch fest, I noticed that Detail Make Over's Matte In Lipsticks were on sale. Buy 1 Take 1 for P225. Who was I to say no to that? 
The packaging looks pretty slick. 
I decided to get Fhaye and Rhea. The beauty assistant was wearing Fhaye and it looked good on her! 
When I swatched it at the mall, I waited for it to set and then I tried smudging it. When it did not smudge, I decided to give it a go. The color payoff is impressive, it's on sale and it didn't smudge!


So this is how Detail Matte In Fhaye looks like; one application. As you can see, color pay off is impressive. It's pretty pigmented. It isn't tacky and felt lightweight.

I decided to put on another layer and it was not a good idea! It accentuated my dry chapped lips and it felt really heavy!

Detail Make Over Matte In - Rhea



So final thoughts? 

PROS:
♥ Packaging is good. I like how sleek it is. It's pretty good for its price!
♥ It does not feel tacky if you only apply it once. One layer is enough, believe me.
♥ It is pigmented! I am impressed with the color payoff, one dip is enough. 
♥ It is affordable! 
♥ It is smudge proof. 

CONS:
♥ It isn't buildable. I tried going for two layers and it accentuated my chapped lips and it felt really heavy on the lips!
♥ There's not much product in it!
♥ If you do not moisturize, it can dry up your lips.

Hair Matters

When it comes to my hair, I always play safe. Hair check! Last time I had my hair really short? Hmmm, when I was in elementary school! I think I was in second grade? I don't remember if it was my grandmother or my mother who decided that I should have my hair cut short. I was just a little kid so I had no choice but to oblige. I obviously did not like how it turned out. It was actually because of that experience that I don't ever want to make a dramatic change to my hair. I remember how some of my classmates made a not so good comment with my then new haircut. THE hair can actually make you (feel) really ugly or pretty. So hair matters, right? RIGHT??? See, it's always in (almost) the same length. Straight. The only difference I actually make is the fringe. I either have it pulled back, full, side swept or none at all! And my face is asymmetrical (plus big) so yeah. I really don't have that much choice. I don't have the face which is flattering to short h...

Lights. Pretty lights. Oh Christmas Tree! Why so taaalllll?? I started my December right by meeting up with my best friends at the Mall of Asia last December 1! We didn't take much photos because we got so excited catching up. We did not see each other for some time, so when we finally met up that day, kwento galore!  My Bestfriend, Jessica. I love how vain my bestfriend is! We really are best of friends hahaha! I used to be more vain than her, but as of the moment, I think she's more vain than I am! :)) And this is me, of course Top: Oxygen || Pants: Paper Scissors || Wedges:  Payless || Bag: Guess We were with Ymel, our other bestfriend, too but she's pregnant and she didn't want to have her photo taken because she thinks she's too fat. Well she gained weight because she's pregnant! Can't wait to meet Baby Zoey!!

For a week, I was given a chance to live a life that I wanted to live. I felt so happy. I felt so free. I felt responsible for myself. I did not worry much, in fact, I did not worry at all. Well, except for that one time, but I got it settled  right away. It was really fun. I know I said this already but  I felt really, really, REALLY happy. I've been dreaming of living a life like that and I am really thankful I experienced it. Even for just a short while. But then again, wouldn't it be a lot better if I were given a longer time to enjoy it? Yes, it was tiring. Even exhausting at some point, but if you were to ask, I can totally live a life like that! I would love to re-live that moment over and over again. I still cannot believe how so many things happened and had been accomplished for a week. So many thing had to be done and somehow, everything got settled. There was even an unexpected accomplishment which made everything more worthwhile.  I do not even...
