my beauty story lip & cheek

this is another product that i bought from my beauty story. since i found out about the brand, i wanted to try their lip & cheek. well, i always want to try double duty product like this, but i don't have the courage to buy it. i was afraid that the color won't shown or me or will melt down since i have combination oily skin. but this one, somehow i feel the urge to buy it and i just do. being a cream blusher is another plus since i also wanted to try cream blush but i was afraid it will vanish quickly since most cream blushes don't suit oily skin.

this is the description from the website: a great multi-tasking cream color that perfectly blushing your cheek and even your lips too! it's in a mirrored flip-top compact for on-the-spot application. the silky and creamy texture makes it easy to blend on the apples of your cheeks for a dewy look. blot it on your lips for a soft, stained finish. it's formulated without parabens, sulfates, phthalates.

the packaging: yes, i like it. it's compact with a mirror inside. sleek and functional. the floral pattern on the top makes it girly and cute. i do like they pick peachy color for the base of the top color. oh, and it's made of plastic, so you don't have to worry to crack anything in case you drop it.

the color: the color selection is limited. they only offer two shades, sweet pea and rose. rose is pinky shade, while sweet pea is coral orange. well, though i have pretty pale skin, somehow i'm attracted to coral, so i decided to pick sweet pea. and i'm glad. it's great. it does look orange in flesh.. bright orange, not coral, but when i blend it, it gives a nice fresh flush to my complexion.

the application: well, this is why i like this brand. it's easy to use their products. their cc cream and this lip & cheek, i only use my finger to apply it. super easy...

the staying power: it's cream blush, so it's really best for normal skin. but for combination/oily skin, i think you can use this one too. probably with powder and powder blush it will hold longer. but when i tried it, i'm on vacation with my two kids, i have no time to make it perfect. so i just blend it with my hands. and since we're mostly inside with air-conditioner, somehow it holds longer. approximately two hours maybe.. but i think it might disappear quicker if i'm sweating a lot. i haven't tried with powder layering thing... so i'll update you if i've tried that.

overall, i'm happy with this product. it's easy to use, give good flush on my cheek and affordable. but i haven't treid it on my lips. usually this kind of product is a little bit drying, but i don't know about this one.  if you want to try cream blush, then you can try this one. if you want multi-tasking product, then certainly try it. overall, i'm quite proud that this brand is local brand with excellent products.
