revlon colorstay ultimate liquid lipstick in platinum petal

While browsing through REVLON'S website  months ago to look for their latest products, I came through this colorstay ultimate liquid  lipstick.What caught my attention to buy this product is its staying power, since I've been looking for decent lippie that won't keep me from reapplying lipstick all the time. After hours of deciding which color to buy ( I was torn between  platinum petal and peony pink). Finally I settled for platinum petal since peony pink isn't available that time.


IN PLATINUM PETAL

says:
  • Food-proof lipcolor with a built-in, ultra-conditioning topcoat
  • One-step application- No topcoat required for comfortable wear
  • Stays comfortable and wears beautifully
  • Does not feather or fade; no touch-ups required, even after meals
  • Available in 20 full-coverage, soft satin shades


swatch on my lips


after 10 minutes there are creases and visible lines starting to appear aggghhh! and after 5 hours my lips had gone mad and dry patches appeared all over without fading evenly.. sorry :)

pros:
- decent pigmentation
-it lives up to its promise of staying power but not 12 hours, it only lasted me 5 to 6 hours.. but I don't mind anyway
- non-transferable
- stay on after  eating , drinking and in betweens
- the bottle itself is quite big compare to other liquid lipstick ( which means MARAMING LAMAN SA LOOB :) )

CONS:
-  as soon as it settles on your lips it dries quickly and then dries and dries dries until it will flake, dry patches will start to appear.
- for a drugstore make up it's pricey  here in the Philippines

will i purchase again??
YES but I'll only get 2 shades, maybe peony pink and thats it.

how about you?? have you tried  these lippie??

VS mineral eyeshadow palette in SAFARI CHIC

 I got this eyeshadow from my mom because she thinks the packaging is so sleek and it would match her Estee Lauder makeup, but it end up staying on my makeup traincase ( does it mean this is mine already? lol)
I'm inlove with it;s gold packaging and yes! the size... it's huge! almost the size of regular pressed powder or bronzers being sold in the  market..
IT'S BAKED MINERAL!
This can be used wet and dry(wet for metallic look or dry for soft shimmering look)
swatches on my hand, applied with 2 swipes

I advice you may want to use eyeshadow primer to make the color pop out.. :)
