Best of Beauty 2016 PH (Lips)

          Hello beautiful people! This is the second installment of my "Best of Beauty 2016 Lips Category". I patterned these series of post from +emilynoel83 "Emily Awards". If you don't know her, you are seriously missing out. She is one of my favorite Youtubers because she delivers informative, sincere, and honest reviews of makeup products. Anyhow, let's move on to my Top 10 Lip products of 2016. These are mostly drugstore products from the Philippines, while the rest are international brands.

          

10. Maybelline's Baby Lips Dr. Rescue. Lipstick lovers definitely need a lip balm to rescue their lips from drying! This baby has been my trusty lip balm for god knows when. I love that it is minty (I don't really like fruity lip balms). I like that it comes in a tube which is convenient and more hygienic to use. It moisturizes the lips and indeed prevents it from drying.

It's well-loved obviously!

9.  Pinkies Collection Smooth Silk Long Eye & Lip Pencil. These are the creamiest lip liners I've tried. They come in different shades even loud ones like blue and purple. They glide easily on the lips and has the coverage of a lipstick. Since they are soft, the downside is that it is hard to sharpen. You need to be extra careful when sharpening this one. P89 from Pinkies Collection counters.

8. Sassy Colors Lipstick in Spicy Red Rose. Sassy Colors is one of the most underrated brand in the PH. I have discovered that they make amazing lipsticks. They have a good variety of shades and I have tried one from each. My favorite is this shade in Spicy Red Rose. It's a brown shade with red undertone. This one looks flattering for both morena and fair skin tones. Their lipsticks are creamy, comfortable, and long-lasting. P165 from Sassy Colors counters.

7. Fashion 21 All Day Matte Lipsticks (Sushi and Bronze). Another drugstore gems are these Fashion 21 lipsticks. For a matte lipstick, the formula is not drying, it is comfortable, and long-lasting. The color is very opaque. The application is easy, as the lipstick glides smoothly to the lips. P175 from Fashion 21 counters.

6. KJM Cheek and Lip Tint and Bench 24-Hour Lip Tattoo. On days when I don't feel like applying lipsticks, I go for lip and cheek tints. They are perfect if you are going for a "No Makeup Look". My favorites are these two: KJM Cheek and Lip Tint and Bench 24-Hour Lip Tatoo.
          KJM Cheek and Lip tints were highly raved when teen stars started using them. They are organic and proudly made in the Philippines. They have a variety of shades from pinks, to reds, to oranges,and to purples. Personally, I love Bittersweet Magenta and Dolled. P110-150 from online resellers.

Dolled and Bittersweet Magenta

        Another tint that I've been loving is this one from Bench. It is highly-pigmented! The consistency is thin and watery like other tints, but this one is very opaque and pigmented! It would give you the reddest lips if you apply it fully. It does not last for 24 hours, but it can last half day even if you eat and drink. P259 from Bench stores.

Shade in RED

5. Jazzy France Lustrous Lipgloss. Jazzy claimed this one to be a lip gloss, but clearly it is not! The finish is not even glossy, but matte! This one is said to be a local dupe of Colourpop ultra matte. It has the same consistency as the CP liquid lipstick and would dry matte. It is more comfortable on the lips and is less drying than Colourpop. This liquid lipstick oxidizes though! After a couple of minutes or hours I noticed that it turned darker. Nonetheless, I love this one! P349 from Jazzy counters.

4. Colourpop Ultra Mattes and Satins. Colourpop got it all. They released a wide array of liquid lipsticks from mattes, satins, glossy, and now, metallic. Although some shades are hits and misses, they are still fun to collect! I love me some mattes and satins all the same. Here is my Fall Edition set in Up and Away. This set contains a mixture of mattes and satin, and the shades are just amazing! P1,100-1,300 per set from online resellers.

3. Maybelline's Creamy matte lipsticks. My favorite drugstore regular lipsticks are these creamy mattes from Maybelline. They are indeed creamy and glide smoothly on the lips. They are also pigmented and long-lasting. P299 regular price from Maybelline Counters.

Favorite shades from this line

2. Pink Sugar's Sugar Tint. From PH drugstore, these liquid lipsticks are the creamiest, most opaque, and long-lasting. They are comfortable to wear and can withstand eating or drinking. There is a lot of shades to choose from. They have reds, pinks, and mlbbs. For its price point, they beat Colourpop ultra mattes. They are matte but definitely not drying! These deserve the hype! Amazing product from Pink Sugar! P349 from Pink Sugar counters.

Red code and Pink Paradise

1. Milani's Amore Matte Lip creme. THESE DEFINITELY TOP MY LIST! Milani Amore Lip Cremes are the BEST liquid lipstick formula from the drugstore. First, it smells so good (like cakes!). Second, the formula is not drying, creamy, and literally like butter! Third, the pigmentation is superb! One layer is enough and can cover the entire lips already. Fourth, there are a variety of shades, and they just released new mlbbs and browns! Fifth, it is long-lasting and fades beautifully. If you haven't tried these yet, girl...you are missing out!

Loved and sweetheart
