Hello friends!!
I will be flying off to Hong Kong for a short trip later on in the wee hours, so I am using a little bit of spare time now to write a short sharing post with you all!
So as you guys know, I have recently started using makeup products and I am already starting to realize that I seem to have an unhealthy obsession with lipsticks. Like I could be satisfied with just one blusher, one eyeshadow palette, but every time I see a new lipstick I get so drawn to it. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.
I am always like "Girl, you only have one pair of lips, why the heck do you need another lipstick? Furthermore, don't you already have like five others at home??"
Alright alright, I get it.
I feel like I am currently on my way to curbing my obsession, because a couple of days back I finally bit the bullet and spent SGD$20 on the 3CE Mood Recipe Matte Lip Colour (#115 Muss). So now, whenever I see a new lipstick, I have every reason to convince myself that since I already spent $20 on a lipstick, I shouldn't get more before I finish using it (and all the rest that I already have...).
Well, we'll see how long this level of discipline will last hurhur *cold sweat*
Anyhoo, onto the main topic which are these Rue Kwave Lipsticks that I recently got because...I totally needed them. Yup.
I did a quick internet search on this brand and it is a Korean cosmetics brand - anything Korean should be good right? So it means I should get it right? RIGHT??
These are their official swatches:
From the wrist swatches, the colours actually look really similar to each other. Luckily, they do look different when swatched on the lips!
#PK704 Cherry Blossom Archive
#PK702 Hashtag Romantic
Just like the official swatches, #PK704 is a lighter shade of pink while #PK702 leans towards a bolder fuschia pink.
The formula is very moisturising and pigmented, I only glided the lipstick over twice to get the coverage in the pictures. I actually lightly blotted away the excess on my lips AFTER applying two layers cause I thought it felt lighter on my lips that way.
The lipstick is not transfer-proof, but it does stay on quite decently if you are just drinking water (basically activities where you don't need to lick or wipe your lips).
Overall, I think the colours are really pretty and they have a REALLY extensive range of colours for you to choose from. These lipsticks are also super moisturising and pigmented which are major plus points! Did I also mention they smell really good? They don't reek of artificial cosmetic fragrances, but instead smell pleasantly sweet!
Will I buy it again? HEH NO. TRICK QUESTION UH. Remember, we talked about discipline at the start of the post? HAHAHA.
Discipline, I know. Discipline.
But on a serious note, if you are also unhealthily obsessed with lipstick products like me and you want to give it a shot, I would say go for it! Buy the more unconventional colours like orange or something! Try new stuff, don't be boring...like me.
You can get them on Qoo10, which is where I got mine!
That's all for this post, I'll be signing off and preparing for my flight later on! See ya!
