[Lancome] Gloss in Love

Eventhough Valentine has already passed, but I'm sure February is still a month of love, right? hahaha.
Today, I'm going to share a lip gloss product which I got from attending an event last year.




Lancome, Gloss in Love #341 (Pink Pampille)


My first impression of this gloss is, "wahh it looks so pretty, but I'm not sure whether I'm suitable to use it or not :/"
I don't really love to use bright color for lip gloss/lip stick. In the picture below, you can see that the color is similar to dark pink/hot pink. lol.











So, what Lancome claims about this product?



My thoughts about this gloss..

> the packaging is different from usual lip gloss. You need to click/press the button and it will be open.



> unique applicator which the curves will fit your lips. Therefore, it'll be easier to apply the gloss.



Sometimes, the packaging can lie from its product performance right?
but, after trying the gloss several times, I thought that this gloss is actually have soft color. The pink color doesn't really obvious which is still suitable to use it with nude lipstick. The color also have a little shimmer, which will makes your lips kinda glowing/stand out~

> For the texture itself, this gloss didn't make my lips dry. However, lip gloss is still lip gloss, it feels kinda sticky, but not that bad.


 Picture when I apply the lip gloss (on lower lip) and doesn't apply anything on upper lip.
sorry the picture is kinda dark :(


For the price itself, it cost Rp. 280,000 or about $28. More expensive than other lip gloss. However, the quality of the product itself is still a match with the price.


Thanks for reading.
Have a nice day! :D

The Body shop - eyeshadow palette #2 smoky bronze

I just realized that I haven't post anything lately .__.
Yeah, I miss blogging now :(
Recently, so many things happen. Some were bad and some were good.
Moreover, I also learned so much things about life in this month which makes me realized that I'm truly blessed :')

As for holiday, I went to Puncak and Bali last week. I had lots of fun~ 
and yes, Bali's food is super duper DELICIOUS. I'll drool again when I remember that time XD
Luckily, eventhough I eat like craziehh I didn't gain weight *yeayyyy*

--------------------------------------------------

So, today I'm back with another review.
This review will be about THE BODY SHOP #2 smoky bronze eyeshadow palette
and here's my thought ..


• Packaging: The design is simple and elegant. Also, I love how they put mirror and 2 mini brush for wearing the eyeshadow. It's really convenient, so I don't need to bring my "long" eyeshadow brush with me in my makeup pouch :D For the brush itself, it's soft and the quality is good (For the brush fibre, it's similar like Masami shouko brush). However, the size is rather big, it will takes many spot in my makeup pouch. Therefore, I rarely bring it with me :(






(close up to the eyeshadow)

• Texture: they are easy to blend, but the palette tends to get a little bit messy everytime I use it. (eventhough I'm already careful when using it)


(swatches in my hand. From right to left, the darkest shade to the lightest)
all colors are shimmering

• Pigmentation: I will say this product is so-so for the pigmentation. Why? because I need to swap like 3 times to make the eyeshadow appear on my eyelid. I would say coastal scents eyeshadow still much more better than this. 

• Lasting power: I must say the power is not really bad. When using the eyeshadow with eye primer, it will last for around 6 hours.



Conclusion...

PROS
> Have mirror+2 mini brush
> Great for smoky looks
> Lasting power is good
> Easy to blend


CONS
> pricey, I think its around $20++ (can't remember the exact price)
> the eyeshadow rather easy to get messy


So, that's the end of my review.
See ya~


*Ps: I have a new hairstyle XD I will post about it soon~
