・ Review ・ETUDE HOUSE Minnie kissing lips (#1 Minnie Red)

              Badly applied, sorry.

Hello everyone! Today I'm really excited to share with you a review of another lovely red lipstick, this time from the korean brand Etude House, which is my favorite korean brand. This lipstick it's from the "xoxo Minnie Collection" a collaboration released in October with Disney, which featured Minnie. I know I'm a bit late but it took so long to get here since it was blocked by the customs ><

Anyway, I've got it from the super sweet Alice of w2beauty, Thank you so much Alice! ♡

This collection offers a large range of cosmetics, nail polishes and fake lashes. 

I've got a lipstick, you can find it in 2 different shades, pink and red, and I've chosen the red one (yes, you've heard me right, not the pink one lol) which I love! and the blush which I'm going to review in my next post. (Here's  the whole package)

The packaging is just too lovely and girly! While the lipstick it's of a really gorgeous vivid and deep red, I'd say a sexy red which gives a fuller look to your lips. I want to add that I love how it looks like on my skin tone. 

Also, it has a good pigmentation and the texture is just perfect for my dry lips, really creamy and moisturizing.

It's quite scented, I'd say a sweet peachy scent? but it's not too strong. Anyway, I like it! It's quite similar to my MAC Viva Glam Rihanna, just without the frost finish, also it makes my eyes pop the same way and unfortunately it's a limited edition as well. So if you were searching for an affordable Viva Glam Rihanna dupe here it is! Also, it's not really long lasting, it goes away after eating or drinking, so you always need to re-apply it.. otherwise it can last for about 3 hours. What to say.. this is absolutely going to join the family of my favorite reds. What do you think about it? Leave a comment and let me know! Don't forget to follow my facebook page for more updates! :)

You can buy this lipstick and many other korean cosmetics, plus, you'll also receive loads of extra samples (I've also got a yummy korean candy) from the amazing website W2BEAUTY ♡

See you soon! (✿◠‿◠)

・ Review + Swatches ・MAC Viva Glam Rihanna

Hello everyone! June is finally here! ♡ Except for the exams... I can say this is one of my favorite months.
We can finally wear really vivid  and strong shades! In fact, today I want to talk about one of my favorite reds, I'm talking about the "MAC Viva Glam by Rihanna", if you saw my march favorites post you probably remember it, so, as I've said before I don't usually love to wear "frosty" lipsticks, I'm not a big fan of them, but this one it's absolutely gorgeous! It looks stunning especially on blue or green eyes, it makes your eyes pop! One of my favorite things about this lipstick is that every cent of the selling price of VIVA GLAM goes toward helping women, men and children living with and affected by HIV/AIDS so it's also for a worthy cause. Also, I had to grab something from Rihanna's limited edition since everything was super gorgeous.
I love this lipstick, I was afraid it was going to be dry.. but MAC never fails to impress me, it's super soft and creamy. The shade it's kinda dark compared to my other reds and makes my lips looks like a cherry!
It's really long lasting and it smells like any other mac lipstick I own, the price is 18.65€ for (3g / 0.1 US oz)
The red packaging it's soft-touch and signed by Riri, I think it looks really unique.
You can get it HERE and remember that It's a limited edition so if you want to get it, go get it now! Probably this one (compared to the other lipstick of her collection which are already sold out) it's still on the website because people are afraid when they hear "Frost finish" and I was kinda afraid as well, but now I can really tell it's the best red ever! ♡
So, what do you think about it? Do you own any limited edition by MAC? which one? comment below and let me know! Thanks for reading see you soon  (ꐦ ´͈ ᗨ `͈ )

Salve a tutti!! Giugno è finalmente arrivato! e ad eccezione per gli esami, posso dire che è uno dei miei mesi preferiti. Possiamo finalmente indossare colori forti e vividi senza alcuna restrizione e di fatti, oggi volevo proprio parlarvi di uno dei miei rossi preferiti ( se non proprio il mio preferito)  sto parlando del rossetto della collezione limited edition MAC, Viva Glam di Rihanna. Se avete visto il mio post "march beauty favorites" probabilmente lo ricordate, e come ho già detto in precedenza, in genere non amo i rossetti dal finish frost ma questo è assolutamente fantastico! Sopratutto per chi ha gli occhi chiari (verdi/blu) li valorizza in un modo pazzesco! Una delle cose che preferisco di questo rossetto è che ogni centesimo speso va in aiuto ai bambini, uomini e donne affetti da HIV/AIDS quindi è anche per una degna causa. Poi per quanto mi riguarda dovevo assolutamente avere qualcosa della collezione di Rihanna visto che tutto era così bello ma in pochi secondi era già sold-out.. Quindi, fortunatamente ho trovato questo, sul sito è ancora disponibile probabilmente perchè le persone si spaventano quando sentono parlare di "frost finish" onestamente io stessa ero abbastanza scettica al riguardo, avevo paura fosse secco con un finish "metallizzato"... ma la MAC non finirà mai di sorprendermi. E' davvero molto cremoso ed idratante, questo tipo di rosso è un po più scuro rispetto ad altri rossi della mia collezione, lo definirei un rosso ciliegia. Ha un ottima durata e odora come ogni altro rossetto MAC, il prezzo è di 18.65€ per (3g / 0.1 US oz) potete trovarlo sul sito ufficiale della MAC  e ricordate che è limited edition quindi affrettatevi a prenderlo finchè è ancora disponibile :) Il packaging (con l'autografo di Rihanna) è soft-touch, davvero molto particolare, ma i packaging limited edition di MAC sono sempre fantastici. Beh come avrete capito lo adoro, voi cosa ne pensate? quali sono state le vostre limited edition preferite? Lasciate un commento e fatemi sapere! A presto ♡

・ Review + Swatches ・ Kiko Lipstick n° 84

I think every girl should have a red lipstick in their makeup case! and today I want to show you one of my favorite.

The n° 84 by Kiko.

I bought it some weeks ago in one of  kiko's store in Italy, it was the last one of this shade and it was only around 3€ so I had to try it. 
To be honest I've never really liked Kiko's lipstick before ( I hate them) because they were all too "glossy" and they immediately faded from the lips >< but this one it's really awesome! it's such a vivid red and it last all day long! (even if you eat) it gives you sexy and full looking lips :3

Pros: long lasting, awesome color and really cheap
Cons: the only cons.. it's too effing dry, but if you put a moisturizer before there's no problem.


You know what? Usually there are too many shades similar to each other, Kiko should have more fantasy, that's why this one really surprised me.

That's how it looks on my lips, I love the contrast between pale skin and red lips!
