I am not a big fan of red lips for daily makeup. I just don't get the confidence to wear such colors to work. However, I just felt so comfortable wearing this particular red shade. The shade is not too "flashy" for work. The red lipstick have a purple undertone to it making it more settle for usage.
I also love the tingling effect with mint scents that it delivers just right after applications. The color is very true when applied. However, the after effect is not as matte as most matte lip products. This particular lip product have a slight shine effect to it. It is also not "kissed-proof", thus needed continuous touch-up during the day.

There has been a super hype in Indonesia lately on this Purbasari Matte Lipstick. This product has been one of the most wanted lip product for most Indonesian women. This lip product is super affordable. The super high demand makes it super hard to find.
I bought mine at the Guardian Kalibata City Store. They don't have the complete shade. I chose to buy the shade Crystal (No.90). The store does not have Testers to try on. They don't also supply all the range of colors.
Surprisingly, the texture of this product is not too bad. It glides on quite well. The pigmentation of the product is also quite outstanding. They have a very sweet scent like a Framboise Syrup.
So well done Purbasari! It is worth the hype!

Botanica is one of the brand that my makeup lover friends quite talk about. Not just because of the affordable price, but also because the quality.
Because of the hype, I've decided to give it a try on their lip product. The first one that I bought is the Intense Vivid Color Series.
The product itself is a super creamy and sticky texture packaged with a wand applicator just like any other lip cream products in the marketplace.
The texture is super creamy and sticky. I felt that it is more like a glue than a lipcream. It is fragranced with a very strong candy like scent. I love how it is scented.
When applying to lips, this product needs quite a time to perfectly set. Once it is set, it will become matte and unstransferable. After it is set, I find it quite difficult to remove well. Even with a proper makeup remover. In other words, this product does stains!
For the color, I think I've chosen the wrong shade for my skin color. I chose this color based on the recommendation delivered by the shop attendance. However, this shade is just too neon for me.
Brand: Botanica
Series: Intense Vivid Color
Shade: Orchid Pink
Price: IDR.55.000

I adore matte lips! I just can't get enough of it. I usually go more with light nude shade color. But this Latte Confession shade just makes me fall in love again and again with the shade. I love how the color pops out and how the color matches with an everyday makeup.
This product is super long lasting. Once it is set perfectly to our lips, it will stay on the entire day without a significant needs to touch up. It is also kissable. Very important for my case. However, if we have dried lips, it will exagerate the dried lips. Yuck!
Another downside of this product is the aftermath when eating greasy food. The texture will breakdown and create small chappy peaces. It will easily break when we rub our lips constantly.
Aside from its downside, this product is highly recommended for everyday looks until party looks.

If you read in my 2015 Favourites blog post, you will spot on this lip product. This is so far one of my most favourite lip product so far. So here is how it looks like after applications.
I love the super smooth texture and it's ability to dry up quite fast. Once it is set to the lips, it gives a very matte effect without making my lips super dry. It last well throughout the day even after consuming food. However, it is not resistant towards greasy food.
The only downside of this product is that it is not available yet in stores throughout Indonesia. So it will be quite a gamble to purchase whether or not the shade matches our skin.

I honestly never owned a L'oreal lipsticks before. Why? Simply because I was never able to find the right shade for me. So when I go to the L'oreal counter, I decided to purchase on two shades.
The shade that I fell in love deeply is this nude Taupe colour called "Fuzzy Taupe". Well, I can say that in terms of makeup, I am a "nude addict" - oops that sound wrong... lol
The other shades however seems to be too dark on me. I also receive complaints from my fiance regarding the other colour I bought. So I will not talk about the other color.
Anyway, for the Fuzzy Taupe shade, my fiance actually bought me this color. This were bought in Centro Ambarukmo PlaA. I forgot about the exact price, but I think it's about IDR.145.000.
The texture of this lipstick is actually very moisturizing. The finishing is not matte, but not also shimmery. The texture is actually a big thumbs up. The only downturn of it is that it doesn't last long. It needs reaplication everytime after I eat or drink something.
