I recently purchased two more shades of the Wet n Wild Megalast Lipsticks in In the Flesh and Bare It All. I got these for only P150 each from the usbeautyoutlet shop in Shopee. This Wet n Wild Lipstick range is one of my favorites because it's amazing! I love the fact that these lipsticks are very affordable but still of very good quality. I even included the shade Bare It All in my recent monthly favorites post here. 

These lipsticks are very creamy, pigmented, and have a matte but comfortable finish to them. I only own four shades from this range, including Mauve Outta Here and Spiked with Rum, but so far all of them have the same quality! These are not transfer-proof and not very longlasting though. But what I just do is I apply the lipstick then blot my lips with tissue paper - I repeat this process once or twice.

I'm not a fan of its scent but since it's just faint I really don't mind anymore. I like that the packaging is very sturdy and you can see the color of the lipstick right away since the cap is transparent. It's also nice that they put a neat label at the bottom of the tube, which doesn't only have the shade name but also has the same shade as the lipstick. The only thing I don't like is that the cap sometimes pokes the lipstick, since a part of it sticks out of the tube, whenever I remove or put it back.

I really like these lipsticks from Wet n Wild and I'm so excited to get more shades from this range!

I purchased this lipstick from Maybelline a couple of months ago, before we left for our Japan Trip. I felt like this was a unique and perfect shade to wear during springtime in Tokyo. This lipstick, in the shade 681 Vibrant Violet, is from the Maybelline Colorsensational Creamy Matte range. I also mentioned this product in my "What's in My Makeup Bag" post here. 

There are a ton of good reviews about the Creamy Matte range so I was really glad when they finally brought it here in Manila. The first one I purchased from this range is the shade Lust for Blush which I also reviewed here. 

The packaging of this lipstick is really nice, sleek and sturdy. Its has the usual Maybelline lipstick design but the cap is different since it's frosted and the color of the tube is dark brown with a hint of purple.

This lipstick is a straight up violet shade - my favorite color and the reason why I was drawn to it. True enough, similar to Lust for Blush, this is also matte but very creamy and forgiving on the lips. The only thing I've noticed, particularly with Lust for Blush, is that some parts melted at the bottom part so it's a bit wonky already. So, just to be safe, whenever I use these lipsticks I only twist them up a bit.

I love everything about this lipstick and I'm excited to try the nude shades next. Another good thing about this is that even though it's a very bright shade it doesn't crawl out of your lip line so you can use this even without a primer or lip pencil underneath. When used full on, this can last a decent amount of time but fades after eating, which is kind of expected, due to its formula. 

The first lip product is the Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain in the shade 001 Honey. I've had this for quite some time now and have been using this non-stop! You can actually see that the label is already completely gone by now haha! It has a very sweet, minty scent that reminds me of peppermint candy canes and Christmas. I gave this a go when Estee Lalonde mentioned this in some of her videos. 

This gives a very juicy, natural rosy brown color on the lips. It's actually a good option if you want an MLBB shade. I didn't expect this to last the entire day because of its balmy texture but it does leave a stain on your lips. I also love that aside from its minty scent, it also has a minty feel to it. 

I purchased this at a Revlon counter during a sale for P495.

Next is this Yadah Lip Crayon Pencil in the shade 03 Rose Pink. I've also had this for quite some time now and I've also been reaching for this product very often. Lately though, I have been using this sparingly because I can't find this specific shade anymore ever since the new retractable version came out.

Yadah is apparently a Korean makeup brand which, I think, is only exclusively distributed by Beauty Bar. True to its name, it gives you rosy pink color on the lips that is perfect for everyday wear. This smells yummy and sweet like a candy which I don't really find that bothersome. 

This last lip product is from Boots and it's the No7 High Shine Lip Crayon in Daydreamer. This was just a free product that I got when my sister bought No7 eyeshadow palettes for me during a sale. 

At first, I didn't think that I would like this since it looked like a very light nude shade that wouldn't suit my skin tone. 

But since it was free, I tried it anyway and it worked pretty well on me.

Similar to the first two lip products, this also feels like and looks like a tinted lip balm. This gives a very light nude pink color on the lips and has a glossy finish to it. I like the fact that you can use this on its own or paired with a full makeup look. 

This product is pretty hydrating as well.

These lip products are fuss-free and perfect to use for that everyday, natural makeup look. You can get away with applying these products even without a mirror since they are very light and natural just like a tinted lip balm. 

The swatches of these lip products are as follows:

These are my everyday, on-the-go lip products! How about you, what lip products do you like using for chill, laidback days and even on mornings when you're in a rush? 😊

I've always felt intimidated by bold red lipsticks because, whenever I wear one, I always feel like it's too much and very over the top. I'm also into natural makeup looks lately so unless it's a red tint I'd usually pass up. However, I found that this Shu Uemura Rouge Unlimited Lipstick in Spiky Rose is the perfect product to help me overcome my fear of red lipsticks haha! 

It is my go-to red lipstick these days whenever I want to wear something red that isn't too bold or striking. It is actually more like a tinted balm than it is an actual lipstick, which is why I think it's easier to wear. I purchased this at the Shu Uemura store in Trinoma for P1250.

I've swatched this lipstick below and, as you can see, it is a very gorgeous red pink shade that is suitable for everyday wear. At first, I was very hesitant to get this shade because it looks very red from tube. But I find this easier to pull off because it's not your typical full-on, bold red lipstick that is very intimidating. There is a hint of pink tint to it which is another reason why I find this much more wearable. 

This lipstick is very sheer and it actually feels like you're just applying lip balm on your lips. It gives a very juicy, luscious look to the lips because of its balmy formula. Because of that, it's perfect for creating a natural or "no makeup" makeup look. This is also a good option for those still trying to get comfortable and used to red shades of lipstick. 

I didn't really expect this to last the entire day due to its balmy texture and formula. This lasts for about 1-2 hours only before I feel the need to reapply. It also leaves a slight red stain on your lips as it wears off. 

Those who want to venture into bold red lipsticks but are still too scared to do so may find this kind of red shade perfect to start with. It will still give you that hint of red that is much easier and more comfortable to wear until you're ready to transition to bolder and brighter ones.

If you're looking for an affordable dupe, I think the Etude House Apricot Stick in 08 Cherry is a good one. It's not exactly a color dupe but is very similar to the Shu Uemura one in terms of texture and formula. 

Here's a sneak peak of the side by side swatches of these two lip products. I'm also planning to do a review of this Etude House Apricot Stick in one of my next entries so stay tuned for that! 😊

If you're looking for a lipstick with good quality but is also very affordable then this is a good option to try. However, if you're fussy with scents then I don't think you'd like these though.
