I only have 5-6 pieces on my bag. I switch up the lippies from time to time depending on my mood.

Products:

1. Anastasia Beverly Hills Dipbrow Pomade in Dark Brown. I don't carry this around as much but I use it almost everyday now. I just rediscovered this and it's one of my favorites... again! Click here for the review!

2. Maybelline Dream Bouncy Blush in Peach Satin. I won this from a giveaway and I was kind of hoping that I would receive the Maybelline Blush 'Em but I'm glad I received this one instead because it applies easily, the color is buildable, very lightweight and I think I haven't had a cream/mousse blush. It's not very long lasting but I don't mind touching up after a few hours.

3. L'oreal Mat Magique All-in-One. I haven't had a review posted about this powder foundation but as of now, all I can say is that I'm really LOVING it!

4. Natura Organics Mini Stobe Dazzling Highlighter in Calliope. I love this mainly because it is travel friendly and whenever I add this on my face, I feel complete and I feel that my makeup is all good to go!

5. Maybelline Color Sensational Creamy Matte Lipstick in "Touch of Spice". I love this! If you're lips are pigmented, then this is a good nude lippie for you, but for me, I have pale lips so this is a good "your lips but better" lippie for me! Click here for the review.

6. If I feel a bit "fierce" (lol) I go for Ever Bilena Matte Lipstick in "Toast of New York". It's a good red-brown color and I haven't had a brown lippie before so I was happy to find this lippie that is somewhere in between. ♥ Click here for the review.

So that's about it for my current go-to everyday makeup. You might notice, why is there no mascara? No eyeliner? Actually, I like going for "undone" makeup and focus more on the skin and brows. I know that wearing eye makeup makes you look more lively or awake but as of now, I am inspired by those minimal runway makeup. ♥

If you have a makeup product that you are currently loving, please let me know in the comments because I love trying recommended products! Thank you!

Hi!

As a makeup lover residing in the Philippines, one of the most famous make-up brand is Ever Bilena! I've had Ever Bilena products before like the liquid foundation, liquid eyeliners and even those clear mascaras but I don't remember owning a lip product from them. Maybe because when I was so in to Ever Bilena, I wasn't really going for lip products at the time because mostly they would have reds and pinks which back then, I do not even look at. But that was many years ago way back college and now, I got my first ever lipstick from them which I purchased for only Php165.00 ($3.50) at the SM Department store.

Ever Bilena, since the start of 2016, or maybe at the end of last year has been stepping up their game and really leveling to the US drugstore make-up products which many Filipinas reach for at the beauty sections. I really like those new products and looking forward to trying them! 

Claims: Pure Impact, pure luxury. Ultra matte finish! The only matte lipstick that makes your lips stay supple and smooth. Delicately developed with long wearing formula that accentuates and pampers your lips. Incredibly luxurious with Vitamin E that gives your lips the natural moisture.

Net wt. 3.6g.

The packaging is a love-hate for me. Hate because I wish that the packaging would be a thicker kind of plastic so it would be more solid other than that, I have no complaints. I LOVE that the packaging is matte just because I like the feel of it and it's sleek looking because it has a silver touch in the middle. Another thing that I like is that there is a color on top of the lid so you can easily tell what color of lipstick it is. Last thing I like about the packaging is that when you twist the lipstick product in, it locks and same thing when you close and put the lid on.

I got mine in the shade "Toast of New York" and this is one of the latest shades Ever Bilena came up with. I don't know if they are trying to dupe a certain product but this shade is just amazing. It has a deep brown with some burgundy color. 

Here is the color swatch. As you can see it is quite pigmented though I had to build this to get the color that I want.

I really love the color pay off and it is really matte, a bit tacky at first when applied but after some uses, it applied fairly smooth and although you can feel that you have lipstick on, it doesn't feel heavy or drying at all.

After a few hours, (3-4 hours) the lipstick is still good and need not to retouch.

Pros:

♥ For a Php165.00, this is definitely worth the purchase.

♥ It is matte and not drying!

♥ Doesn't totally transfer with the slightest touch.

♥ Doesn't have a strong scent.

♥ You can easily recognize the shade because of the color displayed at the top of the lid.

♥ It does stay on the lips for a good amount of time!

Cons:

 ♦ Quickly transfers when you eat. The product glides on to the outer part of the lips.

♦ I wish the packaging would be sturdier.

Rating:

★★★★☆

Will I repurchase? OF COURSE! This shade is my favorite and I'm looking forward to trying other shades like "Dusk" and "Siennas".

I love Ever Bilena and I'm happy that they are stepping up their game. I'm excited for more of their new products!
