Hi everyone! My hearing was cancelled so I had the chance to squeeze in this review..I actually took this photos the week before they were sent to me. I am always forgetting to write my review on Elite Minerals too. Yay. Anyways, have you ever wondered how did UK cosmetics is becoming a huge hit online lately? Before, it was all about NYX! Now.. My gulay! Sleek, Beauty UK, Gosh and other US Brands like Milani! I envy beauty junkees who are starting now because they have so many options online!! I mean when I was in college there were only a few brands I knew of. And I have to save a lot to have my trip to Beauty Bar!! Now, there are a lot of affordable foreign cosmetics sold by online shop.s Ohh just make sure they are not fly by night shops.. ok?

These babies cost 400 pesos each. When I got these lipsticks, I am actually afraid that the clear plastic packaging would look really tacky and I also have that weird feeling that the packaging is also flimsy! Guess what? I was so wrong. I think the packaging of this lipstick is one of the sturdiest I have ever seen. It feels quite heavy too. These lipsticks were sent to me by The Makeup Suite for reviews. |

At first look, I was drawn to Annalise's Pink!! It looks so bright compared to the other two shades.
|

As the name says - HYPERBRITE! It really looks bright on the lips. When I tried wearing Annalise's Pink to work, I had to have that second look in the mirror and blot the lipstick to lessen the brightness. The shade is very pigmented. I beg to disagree with reviews that this is matte. Hell no! Not at all. Matte lipsticks for me look like the Ever Bilena Matte Lipsticks or Barry M lipstick in Shocking pink. It should be devoid of any sheen or glossy effect on it. These lipsticks have a bit of sheen! It glides smoothly too. I do not know why they are saying that these are matte because the packaging label says so? hehe
The pigmentation of these lipsticks are really good. I just need one swipe and it can give a beautiful stain/tint on my lips. However, the color pay off shows better with 2-3 swipes. The color is ultra bright but very wearable.
The scent is something I am not really sure of. A lot of bloggers say that it smells sweet. I do not feel that way though. For me it does have that lipstick scent but not that disturbing funky scent. I really cannot explain. Ohh now, I know why a lot of bloggers say that it has that Vanilla Bean scent. This was the scent described by Models Own to their lipsticks.
You might need to moisturize your lips well and apply loads of lip balm because these lipsticks can be a bit drying. Well , almost all lipsticks that I have tried are drying on my lips! |

I tried so hard to capture the correct shades for you. These are the correct shades. I even compared this picture with the swatch on my hand. haha |

Annalise's Pink This is a very bright medium pink with loads of blue undertones. It is actually neon pink! Lighter than my Barry M shocking Pink. For medium skin tones like me, I think this shade is a bit hard to pull off. However, I apply darker shade of lip liner or gloss to warm the color a bit. I cannot resist wearing it because the shade is really unique. This shade would look best on fair skin.

Pink Hawaiian
I have doubts on this shade when I first swatched it. However, this one appears to compliment my yellow undertones more than the Annalise's Pink. This is a rich and bright HOT PINK! You can wear this during day time and night time as well. Amp it up by applying 2-3 swipes. Tone it down by patting the lipstick on your lips.

Orangeade
Do you know the singer Vitamin C? haha Raise your hands if you remember her! Well.. this shade reminds me of her. This is purely an orange lipstick. No red or coral undertones to this lipstick compared to Barry M Sunset.
That's it. What shade appeals to you most?
I am still trying to work out Orangeade. The shade looks so new to me. :D
