Purchases ~The Three Lipketeers : NYC Liquid Lipshine, Nivea Gloss Wonderbalm and Baolishi Lipstick

'I started this month with an lippie kick. I had to pick up a few different lip items this first december weekend. I tried to get away with all the Dutch commotion about Sinterklaas, but it failed clearly. I almost  bump onto him at our local grocery mall, grrr. Sinterklaas is an celebration for little children here in Holland. Jups, all those little children should be spoiled on december 5th night with presents and what we called "taai taai", "pepernoten", and candy. After december 5th, we start of with decorating the house for Christmas. In America they have Thanksgiving, Dutchies have Sinterklaas.' ^_^

"Pepernoten" and "Taai Taai"

'Okay, without any further ado, here are my brand new lippies, please welcome them in my lippie family.'

'The first lippie I purchased, was a NYC Liquid Lipshine in Brighton Beach Peach. I have this gloss for a while on my wishlist now, and I thought it should be time for picking it up. Brighton Beach Peach is an slight shimmery coral lipcolor with an hint of an golden sheen. The gloss comes with an applicator, and as you can tell, it's very natural looking on the lips. To me it smells like coconut which I like. The consistency feels very soft, not sticky and I think it looks very nice over coral, peachy or orange lipsticks. It was €2,99 at my local Trekpleister. I hope we get more shades of the NYC Liquid Lipshines, because I want to pick up some more colors.'

'Second lippie I purchased was this Nivea Gloss Wonderbalm in Berry Balm, which I didn't plan on buying it. I literal walked into the Action, and walk against these. First I had my doubts. Some packages aroused some suspicion, cause the consistency looked rotten and stared wickedly to me. Lucky for me I found an sealed package with an smooth looking consistency. It have an soft smell, and it comes in an squeezy tube. It gives me very sheer lips with an minimal berry color, which looks great over (purple) lipsticks. It was €1,29, and I'm thinking of pick up some more in my other local Action. (We have at least 3 Actions here).'

'Then, I couldn't help myself to give my local 1001 Voordeelshop another visit. I picked another Baolishi 24H Lipstick, this time in shade 11 an summery pink color. The Baolishi Lipsticks smells really fruity to me, and these lipsticks last me an surprisely long time. The best part, they are only €1,50, all though you need to like this very girlie, with a wink to little girls package. I thought it's cute, but what really matters is the product. I reviewed #5 <here>, and find my earlier purchase <here>. I googled around a little, and Baolishi makes other kind of lipsticks, so I hope 1001 Voordeelshop stock up on other Baolishi Lipsticks in the future, so that I can try those as well.'

'Finally an overview pick with all my Three Lipketeers swatched. I hope this was a little helpfull. Have a nice sunday.'

Reviews ~ Baolishi 24 Hour Lipstick in #5

'Not so long ago I purchased a few Baolishi 24 Hour Lipsticks. Now is the time to review one, and my choice is #5 with the green package. If some girls are interested in reviewing the other colors, just comment below.' 

'Nr. 5 is an dark, plummy-reddish fall color, which is perfect for this time of year. The coverage and pigmentation really surprised me.'

After Four Hours, A Few Glasses Of Icetea And Before Dinner

5.
After Six Hours And After Dinner

'Conclusion: The box in the store claimed that the lipstick will stay on for 24 hours, but clearly it doesn't stay on for the 24 hours. As you can see the color fade away after four hours and a few glasses of icetea. If I didn't drink, I'm convinced that it will last me at least six hours, if I take a look at the staining. I do recommend to use a lipbalm before applying this lipstick, (or you can put a gloss on top) cause like you maybe noticed, after two hours my lips seems to be matte and a little drying. However, the lipstick goes on nice and smoothly, not hard or with loads of struggling. Right after five hours and my icetea moment, my lips feel like parchment and not really comfy. So I recommend you to use a (tinted) lipbalm or gloss during the day. (or you re apply a few times) I think the stain power is amazing for the price (€1,50). I like this lipstick, but I need to re apply more often to get me through the day. Personally I will purchase more of these lipsticks, cause for the price, color selection, pigmentation and package you can't beat it.'

Purchases ~ Bargain Alert : Baolishi Lipsticks (1001 Voordeelshop) and Eveline Delia Coral Silk Nailpolish

'I am always on the hunt for lipsticks, and as always I couldn't leave it to visit the 1001 Voordeelshop in my town again. I'm glad I did, cause I came across very awesome lipsticks by an brand from Hongkong, China (if I'm not mistaken, the package says also that it is imported by Wirly Multigama Espana SL, so it could be from Spain as well) called Baolishi. I also visited an bargain shop here, called Wibra. I wasn't very fond on the Wibra in the past, but the reason I visited was because of an Nailpolish brand from Poland: Eveline Delia Cosmetics Coral Prosilk Line.'

'Look how cute these lipsticks are from Baolishi. They are only €1,50, a real bargain. The display claims that it is an 24 hour lipstick, but I need to test that first. When I tried to rub off the swatches, I noticed that the colors stained on my skin a little, so that's looks promising, right? Anyway, with a bit of lotion, the colors came off easy, so fingers crossed the colors stay on long. I love the package, wich comes also in pink and orange. (wich I want to pick up later on) Especially the black and green package looks really female. The yellow one looks cute because of the smiley. However, I think with the smiley Baolishi want to reach more girls at age of 10- 16, I think, cause when I Google around, I find more types Baolishi Lipsticks. In the end it's all because of the product, and I think there's nothing wrong with the product. The consistency is really smooth, and the product smells really good. If the product want to stay long on my lips, am I more than happy anyway.'

'Now on to the Eveline Delia Cosmetics Coral Prosilk Nailpolish from Poland. I bought this at a shop here in Holland called the Wibra. It is a shop with an low reputation, mostly residual quantity's from other shops are sold there, and sometimes you will find unusual stuff from abroad, like this nailpolish from Poland. It was only €1,50, also an bargain, and it's nr. 146, a bright Smurfs blue. On the pic I wear two coats. I think it isn't too bad. Drytime is normal, coverage is nice. I whore this 2-3 days without that much tipwear, so I'm happy. Also, no staining so far. I think I like it.'

'So far this mini purchase. I hope you enjoyed it.'
