transcendence: Lipstick and Lip care

This will be a masterpost of lipsticks, lipglosses and lipcare products I have as of March 25, '14.

The reviews will start from left to right and bottom to top:

Maybelline A60 Windsor Rose

I am unsure if Maybelline still has this but I got it from my aunt from the US for free.

The formula is very creamy and has a rosy pink color.

It has a stain effect so that even if the formula is removed, there's a pink stain on the lips.

The finish is glossy and lasts up to 2-4 hours and onwards for the stain.

It doesn't survive when eating or drinking.

Mary Kay 9069 Cantaloupe

I received this from mom and I don't know how much it costs and where I can buy it.

Has a neutral peachy brownish shade and is very creamy.

I haven't tried if it lasts for more than 2 hours.

Prestige Lightshine 06 Elba

My cousin gave this to me ages ago so I am pretty sure this has already been discontinued.

The lip cream has sort of thick consistency and has a violet-pink shade.

Has a very glossy finish and doesn't survive eating and drinking, and wears off about 2-4 hours later.

Palladio Surely Pink

Paladio is found in Beauty Bar and costs below P500.00.

Lipstick smells very nice and has somewhat creamy consistency.

The shade is a violet-ish pink and has a somewhat matte finish.

It has 3-5 hours of wear but doesn't survive food and drink.

The formula dries the lips though so afterwards my lips feather and the layer of my lips peels off.

Revlon Colorstay 295 Satin Rosewood

Lipstick has typical lipstick smell and is somewhat creamy.

The shade is a light red and has a somewhat shiny finish.

Despite it being part of the colorstay line and claiming it's supposed to have lasting power, it doesn't.

It stays around 2-5 hours but doesn't last through food and drink.

The formula is also somewhat drying.

Revlon Creme 525 Wine With Everything

Lipstick also has typical lipstick smell and is creamy.

The shade is a deep red and somewhat shiny finish.

It lasts around 2-5 hours of wear and fades upon eating and drinking.

Revlon Creme 668 Primrose

Lipstick also has typical lipstick smell and is creamy.

The shade is a barbie pink but more violet than pink.

Somewhat shiny finish and lasts 2-5 hours and doesn't survive eating and drinking.

Revlon Matte 012 Sky Pink

Lipstick is very dry and somewhat creamy but the formula is a bit off and dry that when applied, despite wearing lip balm and properly moisturizing, the effect is horrible.

The shade is a beautiful bright barbie pink and has a matte finish but it looks too dry.

It doesn't last past 2-4 hours of wear and eating and drinking.

Revlon Creme 125 Nude Velvet

Very nice neutral colored lipstick.

Lipstick has typical lipstick smell and is very creamy.

It has a somewhat shiny finish and lasts 2-5 hours but doesn't survive eating and drinking.

Revlon Colorburst 096 Petal

Creamiest consistency and doesn't dry the lips.

Shade is a very neutral pink and appears quite sheer upon application.

There's a very glossy finish to this.

Revlon Colorburst Lipbutter 055 Cupcake

The lipstick is also very creamy and doesn't dry the lips.

Shade is a very barbie pink and is quite sheer so it needs to be built up to get a nice color.

There's also a very glossy finish to this.

From left to right, bottom to top.

Maybelline Color Sensational 045 Pink Me Up

This lipstick costs P400 and it is available in Watsons and all Department Stores.

It's more like the Revlon Colorburst lipstick! It's not drying to my lips and it lasts around 3-4 hours without eating.

It's a lovely dark pink color, good for everyday looks.

Also it doesn't smell too much like typical lipsticks and smells good.

L’oreal Color Riche 377 Perfect Red

This lipstick costs P625.00 and available in Watsons and Department Stores.

It's a bright firetruck red and it takes two swipes to get a really opaque color.

It's a bit drying and smells of typical lipstick scent.

It lasts 3-5 hours and eating and drinking usually makes parts of the color fade.

Rimmel Lasting Finish Matte by Kate Moss 110

This lipstick is available in Pop Culture for P300.

The packaging is gorgeous, a bright neon pink-orange with a crown on top.

The shade is a really bright pink-red.

It has a matte finish that doesn't look too awkward when worn (the Revlon matte lipstick looks awkward when worn and is very drying).

This Rimmel one is a bit drying too, as I've observed with most matte lipsticks.

Nyx Butter Gloss 12 Cherry Pie

Available in Pop Culture again for P280, but also available in all Nyx outlets. This smells really good and very sweet. It has a sheer deep red color. It's not drying and lasts around 2-3 hours and doesn't survive eating and drinking.

Maybelline Color Sensational 255 Touch of Toffee

The lip gloss is very nude and it smells very fruity.

Of course, staying power isn't too long (only 2-3 hours), especially when you eat and drink.

This was given to me by one of my aunts so I am unsure of how much it is and if it is still available in Maybelline stores.

MAC Matte Ruby Woo BC2

The lipstick is very creamy but somewhat dry.

Has typical lipstick smell.

Staying power is quite strong, around 5-6 hours but the part touched when eating and drinking will be removed if say you're eating a burger or whatnot but if you're careful, it stays.

It has a matte finish and is somewhat drying.

The top layer of my lips peel off after I remove using makeup wipes.
