Kat Von D Hellbent Lipstick

Kat Von D Hellbent is the very first red lipstick that I own and it is responsible for my red lipstick craze :)

I absolutely love Kat's make up line <3 she designed her own packaging which is absolutely beautiful, on top of that, she actually wears she own products! I think she actually cares about her products and she's not just doing it for money, unlike other celebs who come up with a berjillion perfumes when they don't even wear them to start with. -.-"" 

The lipstick bullet is blood red, but when you apply it onto your lips, it is actually a dark raspberry color. Every time I put this lipstick on myself or my friends, we always receive a lot of compliments. ;) 

It is very long wearing and leaves a subtle pink stain once it wears off.  

The texture is very creamy and it is very pigmented. You can put on a thin layer for a stain effect or load it up for a gorgeous red pout. 

There is no nasty lipstick smell to it..only a faint typical lipstick smell 

Even though it is long lasting, after about 4-5 hours your lips will get dry. I usually just put some lip balm, blot, and dab on some more  

Eraser Collection - very random

I like collecting things, the only reason why my room does not look like a junk yard is because i am very organized. So moving away from perfumes and lipsticks, lets blog about something weird!! My eraser collection!! I lived in Hong Kong for a few years....and you know those asian cutesy stuff that you find in chinatown? HK is loaded with those things, what you see in Chinatown Toronto is nothing compared what you can find in Asia... Im gonna split the collection into three parts cause i like my blogs short and dainty! The first part is about fooooood

Japanese dishes..tempura..sushi...ramen..

American fast food...hot dogs..burgers...

desserts...ice cream and cakes

Fruits and veggie.. orange, peach, banana, eggplant, pineapple, grapes, strawberry

LAVANILA Laboratories - Pure Vanilla Roller-ball (10ml/.32oz) Review

This is my favorite perfume of all time, natural, smell fantastic and it is good for you! 

I have always been a perfume lover, I think i have about 20 bottles so far.. but i started to realized that my body does not like perfume at all! A lot of them started to give me headaches and made me sneeze a lot, so i wont be buying anymore perfumes unless it is made out of natural ingredients only. Also i wanted to use natural products as often as i can, even though i know that i cant go 100% natural all the time... o.o"" well lets try for 80% then! 

Ok! so this is what you will see on one side of the purrrty box: 

   ( )_( )

 =( ^-^ )=

   (       )o     I'm a bio major that hates chemistry...I'm so happy that you dont have to be a chemistry major to know whats in this perfume, its very straightforward. 

Notes: Madagascar vanilla, Freesia, Patchouli, Heliotrope, Tonka Bean

I know there are other notes in this perfume, but vanilla is the alpha queen here, she lets the other notes open the curtain for her but she does not let them steal her show! If you are a patchouli-phobia, no worries!! i cant smell any patchouli at all, so definitely give this perfume a try!  

Lasting power: it is one of the most long lasting perfume i own, easily 6-8 hours

Projection: oh you will smell this baby alright, so dont drown yourself in it for your lab partner or coworkers sakes 

A lot of people find that roller-ball leaks easily, but i have been travelling with this baby for an entire school year now, it is still working perfectly! pricing is reasonable too, i think this was about CAN$20 

Maybelline Color Sensational Lipstick - Red Revival #645

The infamous Red Revival! I bought this thinking that i would get the color the model was wearing in the ads, failllled D: It looks nothing like the shade she is wearing, so im a little disappointed! In person this shade is much brighter compared to how it was advertised, but it is still a gorgeous shade afterall.
The pigmentation is fantastic for a drugstore lippie, it is very creamy and easy to apply too. The packaging is alright..cheap clear red plastic with a long cap, but it is so bulky o.o i compared it to a MAC lipstick...

Apparently this shade is supposed to work with a lot of skin tones, and so far it looks pretty on everyone that I've seen. It is quite long wearing and leaves a little bit of stain on your lips after you take it off. 

The only problem i have with this lippie is the smell D:!!!! *dies* It smells so bad x.x which means i can never wear it, unless i wanna get a bad headache. It is supposed to smell like coconut if you get a good batch, so every time I go into a drugstore I take a sniff to see if this is true and ... it still gives me a headache >.<

Rimmel Moisture Renew Lipstick - Berry Queen

Berry Queen is a pinkish red color, pretty for a drugstore lippie! It is a bit brighter than Kat Von D's hellbent, which is another favorite of mine
It goes on nicely on the lips and its quite pigmented, the texture is very creamy. For 5 bucks im pretty happy with it! wears for about 4-5 hours for me
It does have a floral scent to it, but doesnt bother me much

MAC Dubonnet Lipstick - Swatch

This is another gorgeous dark red lipstick from MAC, it is an amplified creme so you get loads of color payoff! Out of all the MAC lipstick finishes, my favorite ones are cremesheen and amplified creme. This is a lot darker than Dare You and does not have the shimmer that Dare You has. Since these lipsticks are so creamy, it is always better to use a liner to prevent feathering.. I usually apply a thin layer, blot, then apply another layer.. it really helps the lipstick stay on longer

This will give you an idea of how dark Dubonnet is (from left to right): 

1. MAC Viva Glam Cyndi LE
2. Maybelline Color Sensational Lipstick in Red Revival 
3. Kat Von D Hellbent 
4. Rimmel Moisture Renew Lipstick in Berry Queen #400
5. MAC Dare You 
6. MAC Dubonnet 
7. Revlon Colorburst Plum 

MAC Dare You Lipstick - Quick Swatch

MAC Dare You is one of my favorite lipsticks <3 It has a cremesheen finish, feels very light on the lips. You will have to reapply after a couple hours, but thats fine with me!

It is a deep red brown, more red than brown actually.. with super uber tiny red and gold shimmer... absolutely gorgeous! If you are into dark red lipsticks like me, you should really try this one

I did a quick lip swatch here, i just wanted to show the color so ignore the crappy application lulz! This picture was taken under natural day light:

And here is MAC Dare You (Left) compared to MAC Dubonnet (Middle) and Revlon Colorburst Lipstick in Plum, I will post lip swatches of those later on too. This picture was also taken under natural day light, which made them a bit lighter, but the color is still quite accurate
