Assalamualaikum pretty ladies!
I have been a very bad blogger! Happy 2013 everybody, I don't really have the mojo to write up the favorites of 2012 or even to sum up my 2012, but Alhamdulillah I am still alive to this day.
A friend gave me this lipstick sample and there's actually two of them, so I just put it onto one of my unused contact lens case and just depot it there.
So I received four different lipstick sample housed in this old-fashion candy packaging, those chocolate candies in the 90's, I hope to find it in shops cuz I'm feeling a little bit nostalgic. LOL.
It comes onto this little aluminium packaging, which is very inflexible and also a little too cheap for a brand like Laneige, even Missha houses their samples on a luxurious-looking palettes. Also, once opened, it won't be able to be close. Hence, depotted them onto a sterilized contact lens.
In the swatch, I've forgotten to actually put on a heavier swatch, sorry, but from right to left, Glam Nude, Secret Red, Delicious Pink and Plum Pink.
The colors are pigmented but I love the fact that the colors are a little sheer at the same time, as I never actually wore red a lot, so this is the stepping stone I need to wear a bright but sheer red to pass, cuz sometimes it's already on my mindset that red is for women in their 30s and 40s, lol.
But anyways, Laneige's lipstick is actually nice to use, they last for 2-3 hours only, so I made sure I wear a liptint/stain underneath because re-applying them is just bothersome, sometimes. LOL. But it is moisturizing and gives a glossy effect without the glitter, but I think I can make do this lipsticks with Silkygirl's Gloss lipsticks as they seemed to be similar.
Those look like really lovely natural colors

DeleteOhhh these look pretty. I haven't tried laneige before. their skincare is so expensive lol
ReplyDeletethis is my first try for laneige, I've never been able to go to Laneige's booth as I found them to be very intimidatingly expensive lol
DeleteI love the shades! The packaging is pretty unique and impractical though as you said it can't be closed once opened. :(
ReplyDeletetoo bad though :( laneige is much more expensive than Missha, the least they could do is put it on a practical sample container
