Memebox X Jungsun I'm Meme Back To Basics Lipstick #01 Magenta Heels Review | FAIL

Annyeong, Everyone~
This might be my last blog post before getting busy with school stuffs again.
School is starting in roughly 2 days *major sigh*


I got this lipstick as a gift. I never actually worn it outside because......IT IS BAD.

Only today I found out that this lipstick is from a collaboration line between Memebox and Junsgun, a Professional Korean model. I think this collaboration is not a new one and has been discontinued (I guess?) since the Jungsun x Memebox products are not available anymore on Memebox's website.

What It Is

Formulated with moisturizing oils, this pigmented lipstick glides on smooth and gives a lightweight matte finish without accentuating fine lines.

Price

RM89 (approx. USD 19) at Shoppr (direct product link)


The packaging has a matte feel, which adds to 'feeling and looking chic'. It has 'Back to Basics' and 'jungsun' printed on it.


#01 Magenta Heels


This is the part where it shows that it is bad....


The above swatch is obtained with just one swatch of this lipstick. If I swatch multiple times IT WILL GET CLUMPY.

It doesn't feel smooth, it feels chalky to me.

And when applied on the lips, it is dragging my lips a bit eventhough I applied lip moisturizer, totally not smooth at all.


Pigmentation is there and it doesn't bleed easily. Pigmentation shows better when applied from the tube straight to the lips.

The finish is matte just like it claims.

I don't know if you guess notice but the application on the inner part of my bottom lip is PATCHY and UNEVEN.


Can you see it now?? And oh my cute tooth gap peeking

It also gets dry overtime despite having a lip moisturizer on. It also produces clumps and accentuates on fine lines if you have dry lips.

My Final Thoughts

The lipstick quality is bad and not moisturizing at all considering that it says that it is 'formulated with moisturizing oils", I can't really find the ingredients list actually did not bother to do so.

Maybe because the fact that it is a matte lipstick that makes it not moisturizing? Well, I have tried a moisturizing matte lipstick by brand CP (short form). So yeah, this lipstick just has a bad formulation. Funny that it claims to moisturize the lips AND not accentuate the fine lines. False claims, people.

I wouldn't recommend this lipstick at all because it is drying, chalky, rough, clumpy, dragging and uh what else...it is too bad that the color is gorgeous. One and only thing I like about it is just THE COLOR. I even think of disposing this lipstick but the color makes me want to still keep it. Help me decide, guys!

I personally find the lipstick is quite expensive too (USD 19) for something that doesn't have a good quality. There are cheaper and better matte lipsticks out there, better check them out.

The End~ Thats all for my straightforward review about this lipstick ^^

Purple Tale Unboxing + Once Upon A Neck Cream Review

A week ago I received a lovely PR package from one of the brands that I have always been curious about, Purpletale . I discovered about brand when I first saw Ryanraroar's  (Singaporean male beauty blogger) Instagram post about it a few months back. My curiosity of the brand developed since then, I just thought that they were unique and captivating in some kind of way. I feel very grateful and lucky when Purpletale have given me the chance to try out their products. I was asked to choose 2 products that I wanted to review, I choose their Once Upon A Neck Cream - because I thought I need to take more care of my neck and Setting the Scene Essence - hoping that it can help to fade my blemishes since  it contains stellar ingredients such as ginseng, peptide complexes, adenosine and niacinamide As soon as I opened the box, not only it is lightly scented, I also didn't expect to receive more than the 2 intended products! PT wow-ed me with their gene...

Boomdeahdah Mild & Pure Cleansing Oil | Comparison Review

Hello, Everyone! Not sure if I can call this a comparison review because there is ONLY ONE (or two or three) difference between these two hahah anyway, lets get into it! Sometime in August, I received an unexpectedly generous package from Boomdeahdah , a Korean Beauty company. Their motto is " We Love The World " which I think is cute. I can't get much info about the company since there is no English translation on their website, but the motto seems to mean that they are focusing on using natural ingredients. I received a total of 6 products from them, they are too kind! In this post I am just going to talk about 2 of the products I received to review, which are their MILD and PURE cleansing oils. I've talked about their Pure Cleansing Water and Eye & Lip Makeup Remover on my Instagram, both which I really love and wanted to purchase. Boomdeahdah Mild Cleansing Oil(180ml) Price: 8,900₩ Ingredients of the Mild Cleansing Oil B...
