Bloom Lip Gloss in Girlie

Hey dears!

I'm fond of shopping discounted products so whenever I enter a store, I always check if they have a promo on-going. Two weekends ago, I went to Beauty Bar, Glorietta 2 and was in luck that they had items on sale. There weren't much that got my interest but there's one that I just had to buy just because of the shade's name. 

Bloom Lip Gloss

And the shade is...

GIRLIE

It's sort of an inside joke in our office. My workmates were laughing when I brought the lippie the next work day after buying this. I would love to share why it's funny but I better not. Lol

Anyway, I'll just share a swatch post on this lipgloss. :P

I bought this for only Php 253.75. Regular Price was Php 398.75.

I think I've mentioned in my Firsts post that my first ever lipgloss that I bought was from Bloom. It was during my 3rd year in high school and I was 15 years old. And this particular lipgloss is only my second lipgloss from the brand. It took 9 years before I bought another!

I do like Bloom's glosses. They smell fantastic and moisturizing. The shades are pretty and the texture is good. I guess I'm just not into glosses! I'm a lipstick girl all the way!

One of my 'cons' for this lip gloss is the applicator. It doesn't hold much products so I had to dip around 4-5 times so I can get the amount of gloss I want for my lips. :P

So here are pictures of my lips with the Bloom Lip Gloss in Girlie:

Girlie is pretty plain and simple. Just adds that healthy pink glow on the lips with very fine glitters. I probably would just ignore it if it weren't for the name. I like my lippies very pigmented after all. But I guess having a simple lipgloss in my stash is nice... :P 

So I guess that's all. What do you think of Bloom Lip Gloss in Girlie? :)

Cheers,

My Firsts

I made a list of the first makeup I've ever used (well, those that I still remember). It's actually fun doing this post but it involved a lot of thinking and remembering... it somehow tested how good my memory is. haha! Some of my firsts were from way back in high school but most were bought when I was an incoming freshman in college during our summer vacation in the  US. Of course makeup is a lot cheaper there so I splurged my shopping money on makeup besides clothes. :P

 FIRST MASCARA

 Maybelline Lash Discovery Waterproof Mascara

This is probably the best "first" makeup if I have to rank them in order. Lash Discovery Mascara of Maybelline is very easy to use. It doesn't clump, it's long lasting, doesn't smudge and not too heavy on the eye lashes. I was quite disappointed when they discontinued this. Good thing they produced other great mascaras. :)

FIRST BLUSH

Cargo Blush in Gotham

I like this blush. It's not those usual pink tones that you commonly see in every brand. It has a bit of dark peach and has a sheer blue shimmer when light touches your cheeks. I remember buying mine for $22.00. Great deal considering how big it was. :)

FIRST LIQUID EYELINER

Ever Bilena Dip Liner in Black

I was somehow satisfied with this liner's performance. It doesn't crease on my oily lids, long lasting, very intense and fast drying. My only problem was the hard brush. I find it hard to control. But it's very affordable! I remember I bought one again before trying other brands.

 FIRST BRONZER

NYC Color Wheel Mosaic Face Powder

 I've always planned on buying a bronzer so that my face would look thinner. So I bought this one, NYC Color Wheel Mosaic Face Powder, to try it out. It's a drugstore brand so it was less expensive than the others. I did like its performance. It didn't have the copper-ish tone that I try to stay away from that most bronzers have.

 FIRST LIP GLOSS

Bloom Lipgloss in ???

I can't really remember the specific shade. Among the glosses I browsed, this one called "Kissable" is the closest shade to the one I used to have. I really like Bloom's Lip glosses. I dunno why I never bought another one from them after. Maybe I will sometime soon. :P

FIRST/ SECOND EYELASH CURLER

 Shiseido Eyelash Curler

My first one was actually bought in a tiangge which actually cost me around Php30. It was really a horrible experience. When I used it, I saw my lashes fall. I almost cried that time. Haha. After that I swore to buy the best curler so that this won't happen again. So I got this one. Shiseido Lash curler has amazing reviews and I personally like it as well. Although, I exchanged mine with my sister's Shu Eumura Eyelash Curler because it can't get all of her lashes while the Shiseido one can. The Shu Eumura works perfectly on me anyway. In fact, I still use it until now!

FIRST FOUNDATION

Sephora Liquid Foundation in ???

I can't remember which shade I got. I didn't use this much anyway. It was too sheer and I needed one with heavy coverage because I have a lot of dark spots from acne that I need to cover up. 

Well, these are all that I could remember for now. Made me realize how simple my makeup routine was before my collection grew. So, what are your firsts? Care to share them with me?  :)

Btw, my sister, Tracy, is back from her trip in Germany! Yayy! I missed her so much!
