A Review: Revlon Super Lustrous "Certainly Red"

Certainly Red
I'm a sucker for lippen. Especially red. Knowing I rarely wear that.. yet, I keep buying some. This one is amazing. A little bit pinkish in my opinion, and bluish.
The staying power is good. After some heavy eating, the stain will be there in your lips making you looking fresh. For a dramatic look or night make up, double swipes of this will make you look dazzling. Impressive and not drying at all. 3 stars from me, why? Because I don't like the packaging. Less chic, huh? But the formula and the color are awesome!

Only wear it once and planned to give it a go for anyone who wants it..since I owned a Russian Red. Anyone?

all review was based on my personal opinion, products are also mine.

Current Addiction : Maybelline Eye Studio Lasting Drama in Black

taken with my mac, sorry for the bad resolution :p
Been years!
Or feels like years. Howdy :-D
My hair is already black again and I found several good stuffs that might not bite the wallet, too.
If you follow my instagram, it is Maybelline Eye Studio Lasting Drama. Yes, I wore it in these photos. Free smudge (the most important point for me), extremely easy to apply, plus long lasting. It stays. Much better than my MAC eyeliner which can cost you three times than this.
The gel is not drying plus the color is intense. Good for any type of liner you wanna make. 5 stars from me! It's a HG.

all of this review is based on my personal opinion, products are also mine.

Choose The Liners




I am a sucker for eyeliners. I first knew them (and tried to wear them) while I was in high school, senior high school, was it late?

Before that, I just hadn't liked them. In my thoughts those days, they were all smudgy, making your eye makeup go black, and difficult to remove! I guess those opinion were purely because of my lack of experience in wearing them. :p
Eyeliner really can go awesome if we put it in a right way.
Shall I start? 3 stripes above are pencil eyeliner, liquid eye liner pen, and the truest liquid eye liner. What I mean here with the truest liquid eye liner is an eye liner with brush as its applicator. Above are 3 from different brands.
They are Borjouis Eyeliner Pencil, Max Factor Glide and Define Liquid Eyeliner, and Sariayu Double Eyeliner-Mascara.
Only the second one is my favorite because it's the easiest to apply with shaky hand or lack of experience. Seriously, all of these liners are great, yet our preference can be based on how we love to apply them. One of my friend is a big fan of Sariayu Double Eyeliner-Mascara, she uses it everyday and it stays on her, not smudgy, and look lovely.

Here below my conclusion:

  • Eyeliner pencil is for those who wants smudgy effect, makes smokey eyes, loves to tight-lining (lining the eyelash line), hates jet black liners, and hates liners which are hard to remove.
  • Liquid eyeliner pen is for those who wants natural look (it can be applied very thin), needs more control, has shaky hands, doesn't want a smudgy effect.
  • Liquid eyeliner with brush is for those who has a good psychomotor (?), wants a jet black liner, hates smudgy effect, wants dramatical usage, and loves winged-eyes.
I haven't tried eyeliner gel at all and currently eyeing for Bobbi Brown ones, have you guys tried it?
Share some opinions here! :) xx Erin
