One Item Haul

By icyabstract · May 20, 2009 · 11 Comments ·

Pardon the lack of creativity in the title. I honestly didn't know what else to title it aside from 'Quick Haul' or 'My Favorite Lipstick Haul'.
I suppose the latter might have been a better choice, but regardless, I doubt many people take the title into consideration, yes?

Regardless, my purpose of this entry is just inform you all that I had received my package from Magical Tannsu and in it contains pretty much my Holy Grail nude lip product.
Care to guess what it is?

Yes, it's NYX's Round Lipstick in the shade Circe.
And yes I had gotten 2 of it.

The reason for that is it's actually kind of hard to come by this shade here in Singapore and I'm not entirely keen on purchasing it off of Nonpareil Boutique anymore, especially after they had totally jacked up the price of it.
I needed to find some backups before I ran out of mine, as I had been careful not to use it too often so I don't run out.
These lipsticks have a really creamy formula so it's not surprising to run out of them pretty fast with regular usage, especially in this weather!

Here's how the shade looks like:

It's simply a gorgeous brown-beige shade that matches my skintone perfectly, thus giving me the dead nude look (which I do adore, though it's considered a 'crime' to commit). Of course I could always layer a sheer pink/peach gloss to bring myself back to life, but I like how this is versatile that I could wear it extreme(-nude) or subtly.

So now I can use my Circe at ease, knowing that I have backups!

What is your favorite Nude lipstick?

retail_therapy: Blankety is indeed a gorgeous nude shade but yet doesn't completely wash the skin out at the same time. Pretty color. (:

My favourites are
1. Viva Glam V - although its is a lustre but its gorgeous on my lips since I have pigmented lips.
2. Viva Glam II - the prettiest!
3. Loreal Cherry Berry (if I'm not mistaken, that's what it's called)
4. Ditto on Blankety! Loves it!

Omg I am totally spamming! XD

Fiend: I hope you do too (: For their price I think they are a pretty good buy, especially if you come across a shade you like.

I love Rimmel's Airy Fairy which is a MAC Viva Glam V dupe but a matte version. Smells great and the price is nice too since I go through it like lip balm!

Not so much of a nude lipstick wearer cos I always feel that nudes(especially the very pale ones) make me look sick. No offence to those who love nude lipsticks. The one which I say is cloest to nude is MAC pleasureseeker but that also has some peachy coral color in it as well.

frigikz: I've yet to try Bare Slimshine. I've always been interested to and heard tons about it!

Ju Lee Zhang: Ooh yeah Airy Fairy, I think that something I need to try to get my hands on.

feistyskies: Yessss! Honey Ginger is my latest obsession. It's not a total nude on me but it's so gorgeous.

MaddyMadeline: Don't worry my dear, I'm sure we wouldn't take offense. After all when it comes to makeup, to each their own (:
