MAC Star Trek

Posted on September 23, 2016 by Mucha-Lucha

I’ve never watched Star Trek, but I couldn’t resist these limited edition MAC Star trek products. Of course I purchased one of the lipsticks, and once again I purchased a highlighting product from a limited edition MAC collection.

The highlighter is the Trip the Light Fantastic powder in the shade Luna Luster. I’m quite dissappointed in the quality of the packaging which feels very cheap, but as you can see the product itself is very beautiful and that’s what’s most important. It’s a peachy champagne colour and quite shimmery, but really pretty on the skin.

The lipstick is called Kling-It-On and it has a frost finish. As you can see it’s a very unique shade; it’s described as a deep purple with fine pink glitter. It’s a bit sheer, but you can build it up to some extend. The next time I’m going to wear it I’ll fill in my entire lip with a lip liner and then apply the lipstick on top.

Bubblegum and other sweets

Here’s what I wore Tuesday August 30. I love how fun and colourful this look is. I think the light blue bomber and the pink trousers are a perfect match, and this whole look reminds me of bubblegum and other sweets.

Simple and comfortable

Here’s what I wore Monday August 29. It was my first day back a uni and I had quite a long day, so I felt like wearing something simple and comfortable. Of course I dressed up the look just a tiny bit with a red lip.

This is what my nails have looked like the past week. My nails was in a really bad condition for a long time, but they’ve finally started to grow again and break less.

Here’s what I wore Saturday August 27 at my mum’s birthday party. I was on a hunt for a dress to go with these amazing burgundy ombré coloured heels, and this dress was perfect.

Comparison: LA Splash liquid lipsticks

Posted on September 14, 2016 by Mucha-Lucha

Finally I’ve been testing out three of the LA Splash liquid lipstick formulas. The colours and formulas I’ll compare are the Lip Couture in Ghoulish, the Velvetmatte in Flix n Chill and the Studioshine lip lustre in Catrina. You can see the colours on my lips below.

la-splash

The Lip Couture has a quite thin, liquidy texture and it dries completely matte as you can see in the picture. It is completely transfer/kiss proof, but it wears off a bit on the inner soft part of the lips when you eat and drink. It was really long lasting and very difficult to remove. You will have to use an oil-based make-up remover or actual cooking oil (which I used) to remove all of it. The Velvetmatte was not as thin and liquidy as the Lip Couture, but it still dries matte though with a more velvety finish as the name suggests. This one is also completely transfer/kiss proof, and as the Lip Couture it also wears off a bit on the inner soft part of the lips when you eat and drink. This one was long lasting as well, but I was able to remove it with regular make-up remover/cleasing water. The Studioshine lip lustre has a thicker more moussy texture and therefore very comfortable (the other two are not uncomfortable to wear, but the Studioshine lip lustre were the most comfortable one). It dries matte, but with a metallic finish as you can see in the picture. This one is also completely transfer/kiss proof, and just as the other two it wears off a bit on the inner soft part of the lips when you eat and drink. This one was also long lasting, and I was able to remove most of it with regular make-up remover, but I had to remove what was left with oil. In conclusion I like all three formulas, and the shade ranges are amazing. The only problem there is with all three of these is that they don’t layer well. After eating I would apply a bit more on mostly the inner part of the lips where the lipstick had worn off, and it quickly started to crumble on my lips, so I wouldn’t recommend touching up when you’re wearing these lipsticks. Apart from that I would still recommend all three formulas.

Metallic pink

Here’s what I wore Wednesday August 24. I had just bought the sandals the day before I wore this outfit. I’d been wanting a pair of white sandals for a long time, and I finally decided on these Birkenstock lookalikes. I’ve worn them a ton already.
