A Revlon ColorBurst Matte Balm in Showy Review & 3 Amazing Ways to UseIt!

Recently I'm obsessed with hot pink colored lipstick because I have been somewhat brainwashed after seeing several Japanese models in magazines adorning them. Have been checking out every single brands I know for lippies of this shades before deciding to buy this Revlon ColorBurst Matte Balm in Showy.

Besides reviewing this awesome balm, I will also be showing you the 3 awesome ways to use this Revlon Matte Balm! （⌒▽⌒）

 This Revlon Matte Balm is infused with a Triple Butter Complex of Shea, Mango and Coconut Butter that nourishes the lips. It has a pointy crayon tip which doesn't require sharpening and by twisting the silver cap, you can reveal more of it.

Here's how they turned up on me~

Somehow, only when I was editing the photos I realize the color didn't turn out as when I had applied it... It appeared more pinkish and lacking the original blue-ish tone? Not sure if it's from blotting some of the color off and reaction to my lip balm..

Here's the swatch on my hand and lip I took again which turns out closer to the real color.

Very vivid tone! So if you're all for bold colored lippies, this is definitely for you. Overall, I think this lip balm's pretty amazing but if there's one thing about this Revlon ColorBurst Matte Balm that irks me, it would be the peppermint scent! Wish they hadn't come with it...

That's all for the review part. Well I did mentioned earlier that I would show you how to use this balm in 3 different ways. I have shown you one_on my lips, so here's the other two.

Another way to use it is by applying it on the cheek as blusher~!

It turned up pretty subtle and almost natural. And oh, these photos I took at another time and used different makeup (*⌒∇⌒*)

And the third, as an EYELINER!! Yes, you read this correctly!

Thanks to the crayon-like tip, smooth and not-so-sticky texture of this matte balm, drawing on your lids can't get any easier.

Though with my thick double eyelids I find the color tends to get on the crease so I applied it in C-shape the same you do when applying eyeshadow~

And there! The color actually turned out right when I used this Revlon Matte Balm on my eyes.

I actually got my inspiration from Popteen April 2012 issue where Tsubasa Masuwaka wore this somewhat matching hot pink lipstick and eyeliner (scans from Ekiblog).

Sorta remembered it because the cover of the issue featuring Tsubasa is super kawaii (*´∀｀*)

Hope you enjoy the tips! ☆-(≥vO )

my new hauls from Lazada Malaysia

Hello~!

Just a bit of rambling from my side and an intermission blog post before my next review post. Had to postpone it because the photos didn't turn out the way I expect them to be.. (Ｔ▽Ｔ) I'm still experimenting with the DSLR!

For that very reason too, I bought myself a new tripod and remote control.  Initially wanted to wait a little while longer before getting them but last weekend's disastrous photo shoot, I knew I needed them FAST! Snapping photos just with the support from my arm is sorta challenging because my arm are short and the DSLR's really heavy.. ( = A ="||)

Jyan~ what I got (besides the camera and lens are from my twinnie).

Cheap tripod and remote control I bought online from Lazada Malaysia which I receive today and paid on C.O.D.(Cash on Delivery)_one cool point about shopping from the site. On the other hand, I don't get why they've just can't deliver them together! I had two deliveryman showing up at the door at different time today to deliver them WTH

And some more, I have yet to receive a underwater lomo camera which I ordered together with those two... *SIGH* Really hope it arrives tomorrow.

Still, will ganbatte taking photos and testing my new toys out this weekend yayy~!
