IN2IT Moisture Intense Lipstick in Pink Alarm - Review, Photos, Swatches

Tweet

IN2IT Moisture Intense Lipstick in Pink Alarm is a lipstick that promises moisture and longevity in wear. Its a bright fuchsia pink with blue undertones, and with a hint of purple shimmer. It's almost similar to MAC Show Orchid (color and finish). though Pink Alarm is pinker. If MAC Show Orchid and MAC Full Fuchsia ever conceived, Pink Alarm could be their offspring. Pink Alarm's finish reminds me of MAC's Amplified Creme. Color payoff is great (buildable), long wearing and won't dry out your lips. I'm pretty pleased with this lipstick from IN2IT, so I'm considering getting other shades. :)

NARS Schiap - Review, Photos, Swatches

NARS Schiap is a bright fuchsia pink lipstick, almost neon, in a semi-matte formula. I love how creamy it is when applied, making it easy for our lips, but dries out matte. Its not drying at all! It's pretty long wearing also. The color is bright and fun that will lighten up anyone's face. I think this is a friendly type of pink that may work for most skin tones.

PROS: Formula is perfect! Matte but not drying, easy to apply, color is opaque, long wearing, no distinct taste or smell, locally available and included in the permanent line, contains more product than MAC
CONS: Expensive, which I think is just right since it contains more product than other(or some) lipsticks

VERDICT:

 I will definitely repurchase!

Make Up For Ever Rouge Artist Intense in 36 - Review, Photos, Swatches

Tweet

Make Up For Ever Rouge Artist Intense in 36 is a bright fuchsia pink with blue undertones. It is comparable to MAC Girl About Town, only this one is more pink. I particularly love this shade because the blue undertones helps in making my teeth look whiter. This is my first lipstick from Make Up For Ever, and so far I'm loving it. It is creamy, opaque, and long wearing. I'll say it has a semi-matte finish. The only thing that bothers me about it is the smell. It's scent is nice, don't get me wrong. I'm just not a fan of scented makeup. I pair this lipstick with Make Up For Ever Aqua Lip Pencil in 16C. :)

MAC Chatterbox - Review, Photos, Swatches

Tweet

MAC Chatterbox is a light pink shade with cool undertones. It's in amplified creme finish. It's quite opaque so its good for girls with pigmented lips. I have to say though, this has a tendency to make me look pale, so I always wear blush or made-up eyes to balance it out.

So yes, this is MAC Quick Sizzle lipstick. It's a bright blue-based pink in matte finish. It's opaque, long wearing, and the formula (though its matte) is not drying at all. It is part of the Shop MAC, Cook MAC Collection, thus making it a limited edition shade.


PROS: Matte but not drying, gorgeous shade, long wearing, an opaque.
CONS: limited edition. :(


VERDICT:

 I will definitely repurchase!

MAC Pink Pigeon is my utmost favorite bright pink lipstick! It's almost as neon-y as Candy Yum Yum without the purple undertones. It's a matte, cool toned pink that's just perfect for spring and summer. This lipstick is from the MAC Iris Apfel Collection.
