Coloupop x KathleenLights Ultra Satin Lips: Alyssa

Hello helloo! If you haven't read my Colourpop haul, read me HERE.
And have you read my last post?

Anyhow, today's post is about....

One of my favourite youtube beauty gurus, Kathleen Lights had a collaboration with Colourpop featuring 3 Ultra Satin lip shades, 1 creme gel liner and 1 creme gel pot. There’s an element of softness to it with the choice of light pinks to light browns. I do not own many “pastel” or “light nude” shades in my collection but boy was I in a surprise with this one.

I chose to only pick up "Alyssa" due to its neutral dusty pink tone which I was clearly reeled into.
This shade after testing it out, instantly became a favourite of mine!

First impression:
This comes in the same cardboard boxes as the regular ones, only on these boxes it says 'KathleenLights x Colourpop'. It comes in a clear bottle with a metallic cap and details.



Swatches:

  • on wrist

Alyssa swatches as a milkshake pink on my skin tone and it is so pretty! This shade is extremely pigmented. BUT the slight streakiness bothers me. I have found a way to work with it by letting one layer dry before dabbing another layer on with my ring finger.  I love that particular finish a lil bit more.

When swatched on lip, this is definitely going to be an option I pick out for intense smokey eyes or bold eye look in general.






Till the next post, stay safe and fabulous.

Takami Skin Peel Review

Image
Apparently this is ranked #1 in Japan so I thought to myself, ooh let's try this! It then prompted me to ask the owner at Perth Fabulous Beauty about it, the price ($79) I admit, initially threw me off. I felt hesitant because I asked myself, would I take this bet to try this out if in case it doesn't work out at the end? So after a night's thought, I went to the shop..... and bought it! I have been using this little magic for a week now.. and so far, here are my thoughts. You must be wondering what is this product about right? Well Takami Skin Peel proves to soften and beautify skin. It is said to be that the fluid feels exactly like water with no artificial flavour or any added fragrance. It is also said to "solve a variety of skin problems, such as pores, blackheads, acne, fat particles, etc.." "And if you persist using it everyday, you will certainly see the effects." And just from that rough translation, it felt like I need to try this prod...

"Less perfection, more authenticity."

  Authenticity, living life being true to who you truly want to be. Rediscover your authentic self from within. Align yourself to your values and goals and live life authentically, and do not waiver in the face of mediocrity and conformity. May today’s quote (one of my favs) inspire you to be true to who you are. I truly believe that if you’re your authentic self, you have no competition💫 A little personal post today -  I used to own a lil blog where I just write my heart out but for now, I'll spill my thoughts here :) The purpose of our lives is to be happy right? Every time we make a decision, our most important question should be - will it make me happy? Nothing can be greater than our own happiness. It is our life and we need to choose what to do with it. Breathe and keep breathing. Keep trusting the journey you are on. It might not make sense right now. It might feel utterly chaotic and overwhelming. You might feel like sometimes you're living a life that isn't even y...

Kailijumei Jelly Flower Lipstick Review

Image
When this flower jelly lipstick first came out, so so many people on the internet talked and raved about it; and got crazily obsessed over this, last year (?)..... but is it any good with its pretty looks? And yep, here I am, joining in the craze half year later, putting it to the test to see if it lives up to its appearance! Front note, I did a mini review post on my instagram a while ago, link is here if you want to read! I could remember the times when the range was out of stock in plenty of websites and asian cosmetics stores here in Perth, but now that the internet obsession of this has calmed down a little, I thought to do give you all a detailed review so you can decide if you would want to try these out! First impression & packaging: Besides the cute appearance it has, which reminds me of the enchanted rose from Beauty and Beast (with a flower and gold specks encased within a clear jelly like bullet!), let's talk in-depth about the product itself! When I fi...
