De-Clutter: Goodbye Lippies


Hello everyone! Welcome to a new de-clutter  post here on my blog.
I won't lie, this post took a very long time to get done because I found very difficult to part with a couple of these products. The main product focus of this de-clutter are lip products.

Lip Product De-Clutter

Lipsticks

Revlon Superlustrous in 525 Wine with Everything

Revlon Superlustrous in 740 Certainly Red

Limecrime Glamour 101
Limecrime Glamour 101 - Beautiful red lipstick. However, as it's gotten older, it has begun to dry out and it is very patchy when applied.I constantly have to build up the opacity,and it's just not worth the effort anymore. Won't be repurchasing.

Revlon Superlustrous in 740 Certainly Red - My favourite red lipstick. Creamy, pigmented, and just absolutely beautiful on the lips. It is a cream lipstick therefore it doesn't survive through eating and drinking, but I don't mind reapplying or touching up on the go with this. Definite repurchase.

Revlon Superlustrous in 525 Wine with Everything - Another beautiful lipstick. I really enjoy the cream formula of the Superlustrous lipsticks. For me, this is the perfect everyday lipstick. It packs a punch of colour without being jarring or overpowering. It's a wine lipstick that does not go into the deep, sultry or even vampy category of wine lipsticks.Definite repurchase.

Lipgloss

Back in early 2017, I did a yearly favourites for 2016, and it featured my Revlon Superlustrous lipgloss in Pink Pop. Sadly, Pink Pop and its sister Desert Spice, are being de-cluttered. The consistency of both glosses has changed dramatically, and the scent has gone off completely. The Superlustrous glosses however, have an amazing formula. They are high shine, and thick without being tacky, and they are very moisturizing. I may purchase a new gloss from this line, but since I don't wear lipglosses frequently, I'll hold off on making any definitive decisions. 

 Other

My final two lip products being de-cluttered. While I enjoyed them, I'm no longer interested  in wearing them. They both have great pigmentation, and feel very comfortable on my lips, but I just don't reach for them. I've had these on my chopping block for months, trying to convince myself to use them but I just have other products I'd rather use.

Parting is such sweet sorrow, especially when it comes to my red lipsticks. However, it's time for me to try new products, and I can't do that until I rid my collection of the unused, the expired, and/or the neglected.

My next post will be an empties post, and who knows maybe it'll drop next Sunday 😏😸
Until next time, stay happy,healthy and positive.

Review: Revlon Ultra HD Matte LipColor

Hey everyone! Welcome back!

Today, I'm doing a quickie review on the Revlon Ultra HD Matte Liquid LipColor. 
I have this in the shade Passion, which is a beautiful red. Prior to purchasing this, I saw a lot of mixed reviews on this particular product, and was very apprehensive when purchasing mine. However, since purchasing this, I've worn it for almost 2 weeks straight. I've been out of the habit of wearing red lips, but this product made me fall back in love with red lips.

The consistency of this product is perfect, it isn't pure liquid, nor is it too creamy. If I had to give a specific texture, it'll be almost gel like. It glides onto the lips easily, and I haven't been a victim of it bleeding or moving outside of my lip line. It takes a long time to completely dry down, which is a bit of a hassle, however, a quick blot with a tissue and you're good to go. I ritually blot my lips when it comes to any lipstick, cream or liquid, just to ensure it doesn't get onto my teeth, so this step didn't bother me, nor did it impact my opinion on this product. 
The applicator on this liquid LipColor is divine. It is small, and triangular making application a breeze.

My only problem with this product is the scent. It smells like cherry cough syrup. I guess it fits with the colour of the product but I could do without the strong fragrance.
Swach of Ultra HD Matte LipColor in Passion

I've truly been enjoying using this product, despite the strong fragrance, however, I know many people wouldn't consider this to be a true liquid lipstick, since it doesn't dry down to a full matte finish in a short period of time. It does manage to last through eating and drinking, and wears comfortably and beautifully throughout the day. It is small enough to fit in your pocket, so it is great for me whenever I want a punch of colour on the go. 
I would personally recommend this to my friends, but only this shade since I am yet to try others from the line.

I'm sorry about the short review, however, I have a lot of stuff going on personally right now, and my time is very divided.
This may be my last post of the next two weeks, depending on how things go, however, I am in the process of testing some products out, and I hope to bring those reviews to you very soon.
Until next time, stay happy, healthy and positive.
Bye (^_^)/
