My sister is the one who introduced me to Etude House years ago!~ and just recently… she introduced me to a new love!~ She raved about it to me continuously!!! XD She wears it at home, she wears it when we go out, here, there and everywhere! She truly loved it!

And I’m talking about Revlon’s Colorburst Lip Butters!!!!! <333 Ahhh these are creations of nice people who knew that some girls (those girls who are not comfortable wearing lipsticks yet :)) like me >,<) would love a moisturizing and color giving lip product!

My sister owns the first two~ from the left Berry Smoothie and Candy Apple :D and mine’s on the right~ Peach Parfait!

Berry Smoothie this one has slight silver shimmers~ It’s my sister’s My Lips But Better lip butter :) It’s a nice berry color that is totally wearable everyday!

This Candy Apple one is the one worn by Emma Stone~ which is one of the reasons why my sister bought it (She loves Revlon cause she loves Emma Stone :))) XD)

I really like how it looks on my sister’s pale fair skin! It really pops!!! Red that is vibrant which makes her younger ;)

*hey sistah if you’re reading this <333 :))

And because I’m not yet that comfortable wearing any lip color that is not close to my lip shade for everyday~ I chose one that is near mine! It’s a love at first swatch kind of thing :)

Have you counted circle fruits to be placed on the table for new year???~ kekeke >,< Here’s a juicy moisturizing thing for you to add :D I got this last semester and ever since then~ I’ve been using it so so much that the packaging wore out XD

According to Etude House Philippines:

Need luscious lips in an instant? Achieve it simply by just reaching for your pocket! Meet our new, reformulated, Juicy Pop Tubes! :D

Available in 8 fruity flavors, these pocket-sized glosses with antioxidants supplies instant moisture and colorful shine to lips! Have one in your pockets as soon as you can! ;)

I was able to have the old one (click here for the review^^) which was a gift from my good good friend Abee!! <3 I truly enjoyed that one so when I finished it I wanted to buy a new one! But because Etude House loves to innovate~ they replaced it with this! Same name, different colors and now it has antioxidants!

Annyeong haseyo!!!~ So today’s Berry Berry awesome lip product is from Tony Moly!~ Ahh this one is often sold out immediately! It’s such a hot product so when you see one in the boutiques and you really would want to have one, grab it at once!~ cause it might get out of stock the next time you visit! >,<

That scenario often happens to me so it took a while before I finally have one XD I will be thinking whether I should get one when I see that they have full stocks and be thinking “ohh~ they have lots of stocks so I will come back tomorrow” and when I come back~ aigooo no more pots of magic lip tint XD

 

Why is Geum Jandi here? Well, that’s because it was reported that during the filming of the super hallyu starter Kdrama Boys Over Flowers series she used Tony Moly’s Tony Tint Cherry Pink & Berry Berry Magic Lip Tint in 02 Green!

I think it’s perfect for those who wants some color on lips! Aja!~ Guem Jandi fighting!!

It comes in a sturdy plastic tub, clear container and black sleek cap with the Tony Moly print on top~

Da-da-da-dark! lips @,@ I have this problem with dark lips @,@ It’s like I have brown lip liner on #,# It’s a problem I have ever since and I am still searching for a product to complete banish it! So for now let’s hide it ~,< :))

While wandering around my pink comfort zone castle… Etude House I saw this lip liner :) It looks like a normal auto eyeliner pencil :>

Sealed!~ Just use cutter to slightly score it :) And pull the cap off!

Reveal a sharpened auto lip liner! :D I got no.1 which I think is the lightest shade from the five lip liner shades available.

I love the thickness/ diameter of the product because it’s small enough to be used precisely :D Especially on the outer edges of lips!

Konbanwa~!~~ Tonight’s review will be about my favorite lipstick :D I really really love this one! It feels like I’m not wearing any lipstick (I’m not fond of wearing any, except when there are occasions :>) and has staying power like tints!!!

It came all the way from beautiful Japan! <333 Grandmother gave this to me along with other kawaii goodies :> Thank you uncle and auntie! Thank you grandparents :)

Winmax Pure Lipstick Strawberry~ Does not look like strawberries to me :)) Maybe they based the color on kawaii strawberries on cartoons!

A tube of lipstick contains 3 grams of product! :> *I LOVE how it does not melt!!~ Even under our hot weather here!! (Some of my lipsticks are kinda melty @,@)

Form still looks like new!~ And I love the packaging! (Though you could feel that the plastic is a bit un-sturdy kekeke) Gold and black looks very chic!

Here are the swatches! Almost the same intensity! 1 swipe, 2 swipes and 3 swipes!

And here’s how it looks on lips!!! Perfectly and equally covers my dark lips bwahahaha! :> My lips look well moisturized too! 

Texture is the right kind of creamy, it leaves a tint of color after you eat!

Annyong haseyo! Today’s review will be about concealing lips! This product is from Beauty Credit I got it a couple of months back :)(http://erikajjang.tumblr.com/post/5629153073/somang-beauty-credit) 

What are lip concealers?

Well these are products that will lighten lip color for lip stick to appear more vibrantly. It also helps even out lip color!

Lip concealers are perfect for those who want to wear lighter shades like pink or go all nude :D

There are only two lip concealers that are available here in the Philippines (but I guess there are some others but I haven’t seen those >.<) This one and the one from Etude!~

When blended it’s almost unnoticeable!~

Scroll down a bit to see how effective lip concealers are for lightening lip color :D 

I’m using Estee Lauder 118 Bois de Rose with Beauty Credit’s Lovely Tangtang stick concealer.

Dark lips on the outer parts (NO, I REPEAT, I DON’T SMOKE~) :))

Beauty Credit’s Lip Concealer when applied! It goes on smoothly! :> And with just one swipe it can conceal dark lips :)

Lip Concealer + Red Lipstick = Tada!~~PINK Lips! <3

Here’s the original color of the lipstick without lip concealer :) It’s on the border line of red and pink :>

Closer look on how amazingly blended the lip color is! Take note that I did not use any lip brush I applied the lipstick directly after the lip concealer.

Looks like all the product got removed right? Tested how long lasting it will be…

See see! It’s still on!The color is still there :D

Added lip gloss over the wiped off lip stick and concealer and created a glossy effect ;D

PROS:

• lasts long
• creamy blending is a breeze
• perfect for creating pink or light colored lips
• price is ok! It’ priced 300 (this is from Subic so there is no VAT) plus it was on 30 percent off sale
• packaging… CUTE ROCKING HORSE
• Available in 2 shades: Natural Beige and Skin Beige ;) 

CONS:

• hard to find, I’ve visited Somang/ Beauty Credit’s store in SM North (Watsons) and they don’t have this there :<

*I don’t recommend this to those who want red lips! This will totally make your red lipstick pink! 

*googled the meaning of tangtang (was just too curious) and in bisaya it meant removal kekeke~ Removal of lip color perhaps?

ADDITIONAL According to beauty credit:

Tangtang in Korean language (pronounced “tengteng”) means Resilience, tightness, elasticity. When a skin is Tangtang in korean, it means it is youthful, with vibrance (such as the skin of a baby… when the skin gets older, then it develops wrinkles and such is not tangtang anymore ^^)

*Beauty Credit Philippines said that this is a concealer for the face T.T What??? I’m confused who shall I believe? I will try using this for the face.

~~Tried it on the face, I like it better as a lip concealer, it’s up to you if you want it only for your face.

Erika’s Weather Forecast: Why so hot?!?! Electric Fan can’t take the heat T.T’ 

Super favorite Lipstick!~ OMO I know I’ve said that I don’t like wearing lipsticks but this lipstick changed my mind :> <3 waaa I’m in love <3 <3 kekeke so *cheesy* but seriously this lipstick is GREAT!

Annyong haseyo! How did your day go? Mine went really well :> So finally Tony Moly’s flagship store opened today! I was really really excited and as soon as my first class ended I rushed to the nearest jeepney going to SM north!~

Sleek and Urban were the words that rushed to my mind when I saw the store! Their sign is attracting! Changing colors are COOL ;) See the sign? before I took the photo the lights were blue :D

I asked if I could take photos and they gladly agreed! (unlike other stores that don’t want people to take photos inside their store) Kamsa hamnida!~

The interiors are really really sleek!~ white counters and grey floors with the city landscape wallpapers!

A different kind of chandelier? :) Tony Moly’s sign!

Now on to the products! I was so excited to browse through the selection (I think it took me one hour just roaming around kekeke :)) )

BUNNY FEVER! These are so cute :) These are mists ;)

Cute bunny cute bunny!!!

They also have these cute blushes! (Reminded me of Lovely Cookie Blushers from Etude House!~ Same price range too!)

FUUULAAAFYYY! >.<

These are crystal blushers :) Diamond shaped!

The peach one and the lavender one looks interesting :) I tried them on and it looked natural and not obvious!

PRINCESS LIP GLOSS! They are not complete :( missing five more!

Define CUTE?

These are more lip products! :D Interestingly cute packaging for the win!

They have different kinds of masks too! Ranging from 58 pesos to 198 pesos!

Famous EGG products! and no they do not smell like eggs ;)

Bunny fever continues ;)

These are lotions inside these peaches and oranges packaging :D :D so cute! (I think I’ve used cute too much! kekeke XD) The peaches hand cream smelled the BEST out of all the products in the store! :)) SO delicious I wanted to taste it (of course I didn’t ;D)

For today only: SPECIAL GIFT PRODUCTS were given! (For a minimum purchase of 1000 pesos)

You get to fish from their fishbowl the price you’re going to get! I wasn’t really attracted by the prizes so I passed.

Tony Moly Diary! Still maintaining their sleek design!

ABRACADABRA!~ Ga in’s stunning eye make is gorgeous!

She is the SA that helped me :) Her name is Rose! And she is too sweet and helpful! She new the products really well and we talked like we knew each other :D We took our photo with Tony Moly’s endorser Song Joong Ki!~

Onto my purchase: (I took the advantage of UP’s beautiful fields! XD)

Are you excited to know what’s inside?

Kiss Kiss Lip Scrub 348 pesos. These were best sellers too!

Pen Brush worth 278 pesos! An addition to my brush collection! It’s unique and it’s my first time to see this kind of brush :)

And a Tea Tree Nose Pack!~ 28 pesos.

TONY MOLY = SLEEK! I limited my purchase to a minimum of 500 pesos since I wanted to get a membership card ;) Plus if I purchase 1000 pesos worth of products the rebate points would be wasted.

What I noticed: Some products lacked tags but it’s no biggie since the SAs would gladly check the price for you! All the SAs were really nice and friendly they smiled often which makes the atmosphere super fun and light just what I like :)

Erika’s Weather Forecast: Ahhh today is a good day!~
