Hola chicas!~ I'm back with another haul/review for you with
LOL Cosmetics or Lots Of Love! I find the name quite adorable and I'm sure its
to market to the younger audiences which is a very good strategy. I've been
stumbling upon this product in SM Department stores and Watsons Personal Care
stores but never really got onto purchasing from the small counter as I never
really had the time to do so and I rarely go to SM nowadays. Luckily a counter
finally popped up at Metro-Alabang which delighted me even more and it was as
big as the ELF, WetNWild, LA Colors counter.
I have looked at
their website ever since and had my eyes on a few colours which were thankfully
available. Although I was given the wrong red lipstick but I'm willing to look
past that as I have never really had this colour and I could always go back to
get the one I want since it was really cheap, for a lipstick especially.
Alright! Enough rambling and on with the haul/review!
So based from the photos I only got a few of the ones
because I lacked funds but I will go back to purchase more like the black
lipstick they were selling, it intrigued me very much so I will purchase it
soon. Anyway I'll start with the lippies which I absolutely adore. I tried them
on and throughout my day it was very long lasting even when I was eating.
Although I didn't do much but I didn't expect this out of a 99PHP, 3g lipstick!
It was definitely a good purchase for me. If you're planning to try a color
like black or a pink I recommend these lipsticks. I got #06 I Wanna Be A Princess
which is a nice blue tone pink color. Its its not a "in your face"
pink, you can definitely go subtle with it which is great. It doesn't show up
in the photo as well as it does in person which is a shame, as goes for the red
lipstick, #10 Rock That Red. It has a very subtle gold/copper undertone which
gives it a slight pearl finish, I don't like that personally but it doesn't
show up that much on the lips so I'm overlooking it.
The brow pencil was purchased on a whim since I was looking
for a good brow pencil to switch up my brow routine. Pulling out an eyebrow kit
and eyebrow brush doesn't sound appealing. I don't like doing it in the
restrooms either because there are too many girls. So I usually do it in the
car on the way to wherever I'm going. I got #01 Blonde (139PHP) since my hair is bleached and its better than
the dark one I keep using. Its too over powering sometimes, that's why I got
the lighter shade this time which surprisingly did not disappoint. I retouched
my brows and it matched very well. I don't have a photo but I do have a swatch
which is down below along with the lipsticks and nail varnishes.
I finally picked
up two of the nail varnishes (119PHP/bottle)
from this brand. They've intrigued me with the bright neon green and pink. I
needed a new white one so I picked up the #03
Seen A Ghost and decided to get #19
Pink Bubbly for future accent nail purposes. Right off the bat, the white
one is highly pigmented, one coat and all you see it white which I'm pleased
with. Quite streaky though but with the right application it won't bother you.
I'm excited to get the other colours, like the reds. nudes and pinks. They
remind me of the Nature Republic varnishes that I adore to death as they are
pigmented as ever even on the first coat which makes me happy.
The packaging is very simple and distinct which is good. The
only thing I don't like is the lipstick packaging as the lipstick is peeking
out of the tube it ups the risk of your jabbing the cover on it and butchering
it or it breaking it but I guess it can be overlooked as it is just a cheap
lipstick. The nail varnish bottles remind me a lot of the OPI bottles which is
very simple and not overly fancy.
I don't really
have much to say and I have yet to try all their products so stay tuned for any
more updates from this brand. I'll be sure to show you more! I just need to
make space in my vanity area so just wait for it! I highly recommend this brand
as it is affordable and pigmented. Unlike other local brands that put up so
much hype for it but don't really deliver as much and some can be highly priced
for reasons that I don't know of. I'm not lashing them out, I'm just giving my
opinion.
