Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask


Laneige is famous for the masks. and my lips are usually so dry in the winter you can see the dead skin. I cannot use lip products because of this. I of course have a chapstick but it doesn't always work. So in Korea I was lucky to get my hand on this item. When we bought it, it was on promotion, buy one get one. I'm not 100% sure if there actually are any differences besides the smell.
Hubby and I smelled the four and decided on one berry and one grapefruit.
The retail price at the Laneige store was 18 000 won, aprox 20 USD. But we got two for the price.
If you like these and visit Korea I suggest you to go to any of the duty free stores to possibly get an even better deal.
What can I say? Even after the first night using it I could feel a difference. Hubby said he could feel it too. I'm not sure what's in this that makes it different from other masks.
You only need a tiny bit so one jar will last for a long time! Really value for money.

입큰 - 트윙클 립스



A friend of mine gave me this, not sure if she bought it or got it for free.
Anyway it's a new brand to me, it's calle  IPKN. And the balm is called Twinkle Lips.
I have heard people on youtube referring the brand to I P K N. Which I also would have done until I saw the Korean spelling, Ip Kun. Ip means mouth/lips and Kun means Big. In other words "Big Lips".

On the back of the package it says: Enhance the natural beauty of your lips with this tinted balm. This balm reacts with the chemistry of your lips to make long lasting colour.
Not sure what that actually means but...

I got it in colour N4 Glow Jamong. The package is cute, I think it looks a bit more sophisticated and fit someone older. And when I say older, not a teenager.

First impression
It's soft and it has a bit of a grapefruit, then again...Jamong in Korean means grapefruit.
Honestly I cannot really tell, it's a lipbalm and tinted. still it doesn't give that much. I'd rather go with a stronger lip tint or a regular lip balm I think. I guess I have to use it more to see if I change my mind. It's not as "mindblowing"... that's for sure!

잉크 더 에어리벨벳 틴트


Next item to review are Clio Peripera's tints.
I got one from their Peri's Ink Velvet series and one from their Airy velvet series.

Let's start with the Airy.
In Korean it's called 잉크더에어리벨벳 2호 최애쁨템.
Number 02 Pretty orange Pink.
The packages looks identical but the second you put it on you can feel the difference, this is very smooth and super easy to apply. Not sure what the texture is but it's love for the lips, you barely feel it on!! And my lips are usually quite dry and this feels like gel on the lips. This colour is BEAUTIFUL on the lips, I'm so happy with my choice.
To me it gives an intense look of what "natural" lips should look like..haha 
It has a matt finish and stays on for many hours. I think this one is the most long lasting lip tint I have ever tried!! It doesn't smudge off that much on things but I guess it also depends on how much you put on. You get a lot of look for the money!
I love this one and I'd like to try out more colours from this series.

I wonder if this will hit Europe, I think this would be a huge CRAZE in Europe/US if they were sold!! I mean, there is NO woman..or man.. that would say no to this formula!!!

★★★★★/★★★★★


Now of to the Peri's series. This one is from their newest collection so it gave me high hopes!
I mean they are already famous and something should mean something better right?!
I chose the one in colour 잉크더벨벳 13호 미모낭낭, No 13 Charming Coral.
Looking at the colour it looked very matt and faded but still gave a really cool look to the lips.
I was so keen to try this out! However as I put in on my lips I didn't like it AT ALL.
It looked heavy and my lips felt like they were coated with glue. I was questioning if they had put something else into the bottle. It was SO DISAPPOINTING!
It felt like a waste of money and I'm happy I also got the airy one as well..
Only to try this would have meant... bye bye Peripera!
I do not recommend this unless you look to look...cheap and ugly!?
I could work on others, I have no idea how? Maybe if you have super moist lips?

Banila co two kisses dual tint


I saw a lot of reviews and I had hope for this tint. I have never been a fan of banila co but this one seemed like a good try. And I need something nice for my lips for the wedding!
Yes it did give a lot of colour, but it smudge off way more than I expected. Not sure if I could kiss my husband to be, he'd be all pink!!!
This tint comes in many different colours, I only bought one and I got the one called 02 Pink Princess.
I followed the steps on the package. I like the colour of it a lot but I did not like the taste of it it felt like putting soap on the lips, it also made my lips super dry!!

Maybe I had higher expectations but I do not recommend this lip tint.
