VDL- Triple Shot Tint Bar.

VDL's Triple Shot Tint Bar is known for the 1 step korean gradient lipstick.
It has 3 tiers of colours in a lipstick bullet to give the gradient lip look just by applying it.
It is actually a tinted lip balm enriched with royal jelly to keep lips moisturised and at the same time give the lips a natural gradient look. I love lipbalms. I am the kind of girl that I can forget any makeup items but NEVER my lipbalm because my lips get so sensitive if i didn't apply lip balm :(
Sometimes, if I am working for events or in a hurry, I can't possibly apply lipbalm then liptint then nude lipstick to get the gradient affect.. So I was looking for a lip product that does everything, and I chance upon this! Doesn't hurt to give it try right? So I ordered it and after trying! I love it!

Got 2 shades : Triple Burgundy & Triple Peach

Not a fan of the packaging because it seems a little cheap, but it looks fun. 

3 colours in a bullet so that when applied, it gives the gradient affect on lips. 

Triple Peach applied. 

This colour doesn't show up as orange, it is a very very natural your lips kind of colour. 

It tints the lip naturally pink. Suitable for a no makeup kind of look and perfect for school. Absolutely a favourite,

Triple Burgundy. 

When first applied it appears to be a very berry tone lip tint.

But if you were to let it settle, it turns to a bright hot pink on the lips that tints your lips for a good 3 to 4 hours even with drinking and talking without the colours fading.

Middle : Triple burgundy  

Right: Triple peach

Both of them applied 3 swipes. 

Overall : 

It is definitely moisturising, but it doesn't last very long in terms of moisturising the lips. Reapplication is needed.

Texture when worn on the lips are just like wearing a lipbalm.

They do however tint the lips very well. 

I will highly recommend this if you need a tinted lipbalm for fast application. Plus point is that it gives the korean gradient lip effect. :D 

LANEIGE X push BUTTON - Serum Intense Lipstick

I've always wanted to try laneige's serum intense lipstick. Heard a lot of great reviews for its moisturing properties, high pigmentation and LED affect that it gives to the lips of the wearer.

So finally when they came up with this, something more in the packaging.. I HAVE TO GET IT.

This is in the colour called Dressy Coral -Yr20

I don't see much post about this colour and this colour was the only one that

really interest me so I pick up to give you guys a swatch of it.

I also heard that this is a close dupe for YSL ROUGE PUR COUTURE LIPSTICK IN #52 Rosy Coral. ( Famous lipstick of Cheon Song Yi from the Kdrama : My Love Who Came From The Stars)

However, I do not own that lipstick so I cant give you guys a side by side swatch but if you guys are interested, you can always go down to counters and give these 2 lipstick a swatch. :) 

Love the prints so much. 

It is a very pretty coral colour that leans more pink than orange-red. 

Very bright and  at the same time wearable. 

A very good perk me up colour and it also makes a very good point makeup. 

 swatch- 2 swipes 

Swatch are way brighter  than in this photo.

Middle : Triple burgundy  

Right: Triple peach

Both of them applied 3 swipes. 

 Colour in real life is more bright/neon and slightly more coral-orange. 

This is a very pigmented lipstick, colour payoff is superb. It looks and felt really moisturising on the lips and it just glides on very very nicely. 

MAC- The Simpsons Collection

I  just have to get something from this collection because of the ultra cute packaging. 

I was aiming for the blush, either one of the shadow quad and 2 lipglosses 

However when i went to the counters there is no more blush and 2 of the lipglosses ( pink and purple) was already OOS. :(  So i just got 1 quad which is called the MARGE'S EXTRA INGREDIENTS which retails for SGD 77.

AWESOME PACKAGING.

 

CLOSE UP 

 Harpooned Heart (L)-Shimmery/glittery Pink Champaign 

Love this colour but not so much of the glitters because it would not make a good brow bone colour.

However this does make the perfect colour for the aegyo-sal  ( korea eyebag highlight) or inner corners of the eyes,

Sexy PB & J (VXP) - violet with a sheen

 This colour was one of the 2 shades that make me buy this palette instead of the Trillion Dollar Palette that was also in this collection. The purple is just so pretty and unique that I don't seem to have in my makeup stash. It will also be super fun if I want a pop of colour on my eyes to brighten up my days. Soft and good colour pay off as well. 

Beehive Blue (VXP) - Bright Medium Blue with a sheen

 This is the next colour that makes me have to have this palette. This blue is so bright and eye catching that I just can't give this palette a miss. Similar texture to the purple above, soft and pretty good colour pay off. 

Vivacious Vacuum Cleaner bag (F) - Deepened Purple/black 

 This one was just a little drier than the other 3 however, this colour is a black purple colour that is right up my alley. Good for contouring the eyes for a slightly deeper crease look. It looks really pretty when blended with the blue and purple. 

Swatches on my arm - 2 swipes

OVERALL: I really quite like this palette. Colours are amazing, packaging is also awesome. Good item to have in the collection.
