Enamored

I bought this lipstick on the first of September. I don’t use it everyday but I’ve used it enough to give a proper review. I’ve been a fan of Wet n Wild since I was a kid as my grandmother in the States would send us Balikbayan boxes filled with food, knick knacks and Wet n Wild products. I used to just play with them as they looked like toys. Teehee… That’s why I was so happy when the brand finally reached our shores.

Wet n Wild Lipstick in Enamored

I like pink lipstick. I was drawn to this lipstick because of the pretty pink shade and the silver casing. Plus it’s so affordable at Php299.

From the looks of it, you already know that the extra product will give you problems. That top part does not go hidden inside the case. I knew right then and there that it would break soon. And it did so I got the broken part and put it in my palette.

It’s so sulit  at Php299. Just look at the size of that thing. It’s almost as big as the case.

Here’s the swatch:

So pretty!

I like the shimmery effect. This is the only lipstick that I have that looks so unique. It stands out in my palette.

It lasts for a reasonable amount of time as long as you avoid licking your lips every now and then. When I eat, it still leaves some color on my lips. The only thing I don’t like about this is it chunks up. I have to crush the chunks and spread them out so that I don’t end up with chunky lipstick. It also doesn’t have that weird smell that some lipsticks have.

It doesn’t dry out my lips. I always use a lip balm prior to any lipstick application to protect my lips. Some lipstick brands still dry out my lips even with lip balm.

I don’t bring this with me often as the stick gets cracked easily. So I guess, I’ll be transferring the remaining product to my palette eventually.

I got this at Beauty by SM Makati. Will I repurchase? No. I think lipstick is not one of the strongest products of the brand. Even when I was a kid, the lipstick quality was like that, that’s why I thought they were toys.

Do you have a better experience with Wet n Wild lipsticks?

Soul Notes: For Your Journal Tonight

Come sit with me for a while. I have my journal open, and tonight I’ve been thinking about something I suspect I do more often than I realize. I turn healing into another thing I need to accomplish. I want to know when I’ll be over something. When I’ll stop thinking about it. When something that hurt will finally stop hurting. When I’ll feel like myself again. And somewhere along the way, healing quietly becomes another deadline. Another invisible date on a calendar. Another thing I can somehow be late for. But maybe healing doesn’t work particularly well under project management. Maybe there are things I will understand quickly and things I’ll have to revisit again and again. Maybe I’ll feel completely fine one day and unexpectedly tender the next. That doesn’t mean I’ve gone backwards. It means I’m still moving through it. I remember one day, many years ago, when I had fibromyalgia. I lived in constant pain. I just couldn’t get a good day. And then one day, in the office...

Used to the Last Drop: The Ones I’d Already Told You About

  There’s something particularly satisfying about finishing a product you’ve already written about. Not testing it. Not forming first impressions. Not wondering whether I’ll still like it three weeks from now. Finished. My Molang Honey sheet masks and this body scrub both made it all the way to the end. (Finally for the Molang sheet masks, right?) I’ve reviewed both before, so I won’t review them all over again here. But perhaps using something until there is nothing left to use is its own kind of review. Beauty products come through my bathroom rather frequently. Some are lovely for a week. Some get pushed to the back of a shelf. Some simply stop working for me. And then there are the ones that quietly disappear because I kept reaching for them. Maybe an empty container is the shortest review of all. I liked it enough to finish it. If you want to read my thought about these products, just type them on my search bar. —- With elegance and quiet fire, Lady E Founder, Glow by Lady E...

The Pleasure of Leaving It Behind

  I really liked this dress. Enough that I stood there looking at it for far longer than necessary, having that familiar little debate with myself. It was black. Simple. Very me. I could already imagine how I would wear it. There was only one problem. The fabric was thick. And perhaps in another climate, or another version of my life, that wouldn’t matter very much. But I live in the Philippines. We’re going through El Niño. Heat and I are already not particularly good friends, and my histamine sensitivity has made me even less willing to wear something that might leave me uncomfortable simply because it looks good. Still, I stood there. Because sometimes walking away from something we like is strangely difficult, even when we already know it isn’t right for us. We start negotiating. Maybe I’ll only wear it indoors. Maybe the fabric isn’t that thick. Maybe I’ll regret leaving it behind. Then I realized I was trying awfully hard to convince myself to buy something my body had alrea...
