The Face Shop Diamond Shine Lipgloss in PK102

Hey dearies!

I'll be sharing with you this product that I got in a very cheap price.

We were at UP Town Center and I was able to visit Multi Brand where they sell products from different brands (mostly, if not all, under the Suyen Corp.) that are at 50-70% off. The sole beauty brand there is The Face Shop so I had to check it out and I was able to get this...

The Face Shop Diamond Shine Lipgloss in PK102

I got this for  P197.50 but the original price is maybe Php 400 and above. I can't remember exactly. :(

I'm not exactly sure why these products were sold so cheaply. But while browsing, I saw that some of the boxes had damage (the carton box, not the product packaging itself). Maybe due to the transportation from the country it's from? I am not sure. I also think that some of the products are out of season, especially those from the clothing brands. Anyway, you can check the place out and you can probably snatch a good deal. 

There were various shades available. I can't remember how many (oh dear, I am getting old). I chose this shade because it looks natural but also sweet and warm. It looks so close to the first few lip glosses I bought way back in high school.

Another reason why I bought this is that I really liked the pearly shine and the fine glitters it has when light hits it. I just love the effect!

The product is sheer though. Very different to the lipsticks I use. I think this would look great on top of my usual pink lipsticks!

Anyway, check out the product on my lips. I didn't use any other product on my lips except The Face Shop's Diamond Shine Lipgloss.

It still looks like my natural lips but glossier and plumper! I love the shine and the fine shimmer and I also love that it isn't sticky and the floral scent is very mild. 

Overall, I think this is a pretty okay product. I'm happy that I was able to get it at a very affordable price, but if it were on its regular price, I would have skipped on it. This isn't the usual gloss I'd go for because I prefer more pigmented ones, but this is a nice addition in my stash if I want my regular lipsticks to get a pearly and shimmery glossy finish!

What do you think of this shade? Do you own lipglosses from The Face Shop too?

Cheers,

L.A. Colors Diamond Shine Lipgloss in Golden Peach

Hi dears!

Since it's the summer season already here in the Philippines, I try to make my makeup a little lighter and more on the warm and bronzy shades. And since my lippie collections are mostly bold reds and pinks, I decided to buy a gloss that would look natural on the lips. I am not much of a fan of lipgloss so I just bought one that's very affordable...

L.A. Colors Diamond Shine Lipgloss

Bought this at Robinsons Magnolia Department Store for Php 150.00.

The shade is Golden Peach.

So I bought this because I love PEACH (my blog name's a giveaway)! I love glosses that are in that color because it's warm,feminine and very wearable. I think it's the color of my second lippie ever and it's also a lipgloss.

Here's a closeup of the applicator.

It's good but not the best. I have to do multiple dips so that I get the desired gloss for my lips. 

Swatch on my hand

I like the shimmers. They are very fine and they feel smooth on the lips. I also like that the colors of the shimmers are mixtures of gold and silver.

Swatch on lips

I would have loved this lipgloss if it weren't for it's sheerness. It like I only added gloss and glitters. I was expecting a little more peach color from it. So I guess I'll just use it on top of a lipstick because I don't like wearing something this sheer on my lips. 

Do you like wearing glosses over lippies? What's your favorite brand (mines Fusion Beauty's LipFusion)?

Cheers,
