NYX BLL Pumpkin Pie Review

I've always been looking for coral lipstick ever since I got hooked into makeup. I love anything that is coral especially orange. Orange is my favorite color of all the colors out there. And I know that in some parts of the world, orange is always in trend during summer season just like last year and this year where this orange ruled again. I don't know what's really in color orange but it really attracts me. Let me tell you why I love orange.

Orange is a power color. It is one of the healing colors. It is said to increase the craving for food. It also stimulates enthusiasm and creativity. Orange means vitality with endurance. People who like orange are usually thoughtful and sincere. Lady luck's color is orange. (source)

The most flamboyant color on the planet! It's the color tied most this fun times, happy and energetic days, warmth and organic products. It is also associated with ambition. There is nothing even remotely calm associated with this color. Orange is associated with a new dawn in attitude. (source)

So now I know why I love orange. <3 

Back when I was in Manila, I was sent products by Dee Tan, owner of Skye Avenue. Dee sent me 4 items to review and so far I've only review the NYX Xtreme Lip Cream review out of the 4 items she sent me. Finally, I will be reviewing NYX's black label lipstick in the shade of Pumpkin Pie.

NYX Xtreme Lip Cream Dolly Girl Review

This is my first lip cream from NYX. I wanted to try this for so long ever since it came out in the market because of the hype that has been revolving around beauty blogging industry. I  wanted to try this because of this and that and surprisingly it didn't fail my expectation to what this lip cream should be.

I was surprised when Ate Dee, owner of SKYE AVENUE sent this to me for review purpose (shout out to Ate Dee~Hi! and I still owe you 3 more products to be reviewed). So when it came in the mail I was really ecstatic to see what's inside the blue plastic cellophane and when I opened it I saw a purple net pouch that looks like this...

and also I'm a sucker for a note just because it's shows the sincerity of the sender.

such a cute packaging when it arrived to me. Ate Dee sent me 4 items to review on but for today since I have been wearing the NYX Xtreme Lip Cream for almost a month now, this is what I'm going to share first. Let's get down to review!

What is Xtreme Lip Cream?

"Beautify your lips with this velvety rich lip cream that provides extreme pigmentation with a silky and glossy finish. This lip cream is a hybrid of lipstick, lip gloss, and lip stain with intense pigmentation all in one." ~NYX Website

This has 11 beautiful shades that has glossy finish and it has thick consistency but when you actually put it on your lips you really can't notice the glossiness of this lip cream also doesn't feel heavy on your lips and based on my experience this has matte finish, well atleast for me that's why I like it. It kinda dries up my lips but not to the point where it is very drying. After applying this on your lips and rubbing your lips together you kinda feel that there's layer from your lips that are peeling off. 

wearing NYX Xtreme Lip Cream in Dolly Girl. (hello short hair!)

This is totally a pretty lip product because of its pigmentation. With one swipe on your lips, you get a lot which is good compared to other lip product where you can't get the worth of your money. 

What a vibrant color! :)

Over all verdict?

I LOVE this lip cream and I plan to buy the 10 remaining shades.

PROS

*if you look for lightweight lip product

*if you like pigmented lip color

*if price is affordable

*if locally available

*if you want matte finish

*if you want long lasting lip product

*if you want non sticky formula

CONS

*if your lips makes it appear dry

Zenni Eyeglasses Crazy Promo

I am so thankful for God have given me normal vision and I don't have to worry wearing prescriptive eyeglasses on a daily basis. I know wearing eyeglasses can be a painful to eyes and also to head because both are connected to each other. I don't wear eyeglasses like for fashion and the likes I feel like it doesn't look good on me plus if you do wear eyeglasses even if its for fashion only it might cause you to wear the graded ones.

So if you are looking for an eyeglasses I do suggest Zenni Optical because they have the coolest collection of eyeglasses that fits to any ages, from children to adult plus they have different types of eyeglasses (full-rim, half-rim, rimless, sunshade and goggles); they also have different styles of eyeglasses (acetate, aluminum alloy and etc.); of course shapes of eyeglasses will always be available and the last you can choose from their wide variety of colors. The best thing also is that their eyeglasses are available for anyone be it male, female and unisex. This website is having a crazy promo where when you buy 2 pair of eyeglasses you will have 1 free pair of eyeglasses of equal or lesser value. See promotional picture below.

Review: Myra-E Vita Glow Tinted Moisturizer

For a makeup lover who doesn't wear a lot of makeup everyday, I found the product that I can say my "holy grail" because with this can even out my skin tone and voila hide all those imperfections but with this it can't hide the bumps on your face just evens out the skin discoloration which is pretty good for me. This is available in two shades and I got the darker shade which is beige and at first I was skeptical if this shade would match my skin tone but then when I use it I'm so happy that it did match my skin. I found this at Mercury Drug Store and I think it's 135 or more than but still pretty good product because you get a lot of from the container. 

Review: Revlon Colorburst Lip Butter and Lip Swatches

Review: Black Color Matte Dull Polish

Hello lovely ladies! Last 3 months I was contacted by Jessica of BornPrettyStore and they expressed their interest in letting me review one of their products. As a novice in nail polish and other related to nail stuffs, I gladly accepted their offer to review some of their Matte Dull Nail Polish. I'm very new to nail polish because ever since I start blogging I have never painted my nails colored except for colorless one just to put some shine on my nails. I am pretty much excited to try this product since it's matte and I love things that comes in matte like eyeshadows and lipstick.
