Overall, I loved this look so much! It's so cute yet it fits in for a casual stroll in a mall or even graduation ceremony. 

I love my lace top so much! <3 I bought this for below P400, yet it's so lovable right? I'm ranting now. 

Let's move on on my makeup ;) 

Today I used Fanny Serrano Two Way Cake in Organza. It's good and especially made for Filipina skin like mine :) I didn't do my brows since I don't know how >.< Sorry! I'm so inexperienced.

[REVIEW]: Skinfood Honey Glossy Rouge in Sugar Jelly or #362

I did tell you guys that I like lipsticks, or any lip products. Honey Glossy Rouge is not one, I didn't like it. Anyway, Let's get to the review. 


I've purchased this a looooong time ago on a sale. I guess it's PHP800+ It's pretty  pricey for a not-so worth it lipstick. Goodbye 800 pesos~ TT^TT

I can't read Hangul so I don't know what this means but by researching the internet, I've learned that the name of the shade is Sugar Jelly. 

The shade is a pretty pink color but it's full of glitters! Skinfood overloaded this with glitters which I don't like! I don't like lipsticks that are full of those! Ugh! >.<" 
This is the color. I already said that this lipstick is full of glitters but I like the color. If Skinfood can make this lipstick without the glitters, that'd be great. The first one is only swiped once while the second one is twice. 

Anyway, The lipstick claims that it's moisturizing but It's not. So, make sure that if you're wearing this, you are wearing lip balm under it or it will make your lips look unattractive.

Lasting Power: 3/5
The lipstick lasts for about 2 hours without drinking or eating but It slips right off if you drink anything. 

Moisturizing Power: 1/5
It just makes your chapped lips with a glossy shine. Makes your lips 101% unattractive if it's dry and chapped. I mean it, DO NOT WEAR THIS IF YOUR LIPS ARE DRY, GIRLS. 

Price: 1/5
For a highschool student like me, buying an 800 peso lipstick is just luxury. So I was disappointed by the product I got. I also learned that Skinfood's products are way way expensive here in the Philippines than in Korea. πŸ‘ŽπŸ‘Ž So not cool, guys. 

Availability: 3/5
You can get this from local Skinfood stores but as far as i know, they have 10+ branches in the Philippines but luckily, there's internet and there's a bunch of online stores that you can buy this from. Skinfood has a store in SM Mall of Asia. 

Will I Repurchase? 
Definitely no, just no. But I might try the Vita Tok Lipstick ;) 

Rate: 2/5 
You know why, guys ans girls. 

This is the end of the review. Thanks a lot!


Disclaimer: I purchased the products stated with my own money for my own personal use. 


Love lots,
Pastel Amaranth

[Review]: Baby Lips Color in Pink Lolita

Hi guyss!! It's been a long time since my last review and today I'm going to review baby lips color in pink lolita.

I admit that I am a huuuuuge lip balm junkie. I love sweet smelling ones and ones that makes my lips red. They make my lips moisturized and they give pretty color too. Before purchasing this lip balm, I go for ones that have no color but when I misplaced it, I decided to buy tinted ones ;) 

As you can see it's pretty used, but I've only used it for more than a week. Let's take a look at the color. 


You would think that it gives a red color but as the name suggests it's pink but it's sheer. 

I swatched the lip balm for about 3 swipes and this is what it looks like. It's still translucent. Maybelline would have done a good job if they made these a little bit more pigmented. 


Lasting Power:
The lip balm stays on my lips for about 2-3 hours, that is if I'm not drinking or eating but if i do, it lasts on me for about 1-2 hours and I feel my lips drying againso I reapply. It doesn't do what it claims, Maybelline claims that it hydrates your lips for 6 hours but apparently not. 

Moisturizing Power:
My lips are hydrated! I love this! Unlike my other baby lips this is the one that hydrates my lips the most. My lips are very chapped and I feel obligated to peel it off but with this lip balm, no more peeling! I really like this! 

Color:
It's a sheer pink color. It's good for everyday use and for my school that doesn't allow bold lip colors ;) 

Price:
I bought this at 7-11 for Php105, but in Watsons it's much cheaper. 

Availability: 
It's widely available. I think all Watsons have this kind of baby lips and also some 7-11 stores. 


Rating: 4/5 
I gave it 4 because of the lasting power, if it stays for about 4 hours then I'm good and I'll rate it 5. 

Will I Repurchase? 
I think I'll try the other shades, such as berry crush and rose addict! <3
