Colourpop No Filter Concealer


Hey everyone! I'm here with a swatch and test video of the No Filter Concealer. I was in need of a new concealer since I was running out and good thing Colourpop launched their very own! I got two shades in Light Neutral 15 and Light 20.

When I applied, I noticed they are very pigmented with a lightweight formula. A few swipes will do the job. The applicator is amazing. Let me tell you, it was so easy to use and it is flexible. As I blended it with my wet makeup sponge, it blended so nicely and it dried matte. I've never used a matte finished liquid concealer or foundation because I was worried it would make my skin look dry, but this didn't feel drying on my skin at all. On the website, it claims to be creaseproof, but I do notice slight creases. Other than that, their claims seems to be pretty true. I would definitely recommend these concealers as they are very affordable. They are only $6 each and come in 15 shades, so hopefully there's a shade that matches you.

A trip to Washington


I visited my family in Washington!

Washington state has such a laid-back atmosphere. It's a total different vibe and sense from California. The summer weather there was perfect! 70 degrees weather felt like it was in the 80's. I don't know why I packed three pairs of pants because I didn’t even wear them. I packed one pair of denim shorts and it was what I wore the most throughout my trip. When I came back to California, oh how I missed the weather in WA because it was triple digit degree weather here😩  And I felt so deprived of food because I stayed at brother and sister in law's place and they keep their fridge and kitchen stocked with food for dayssss. I was well fed and always full haha. I didn't get to explore and do tourist things, but it was totally fine since I've done some of that from the last time I went.

It was nice and chill getaway from home.

Colourpop Ultra Blotted Lip Swatches


The new Ultra Blotted Lips from Colourpop! I have five shades in Zuma, Doozy, Slide, Split and Cherry on Top. I loved the blotted lips from the Alexis Ren collection as it's super lightweight and I've heard great things about the ultra blotted lips so I had to try them out when they re-stocked! In general, the formula applies sheer with a matte finish. The ultra blotted lips do not transfer and it is very lightweight. It dries very quickly as well.
Zuma is definitely a must have! It is the perfect shade for me to throw on whenever and wherever. It is a warm rosey mauve shade. Mauve shades are my fave! It looks darker when swatched on my arm than on my lips. Zuma is my favorite. It is a something like a my lips but better color.
Doozy. This shade looks so pretty and I think it is great for the summer. On the website, it is described as a warm rose, but to me I think it has a hint of terracotta to it too.
Do you slide on all your nights like this? I MIGHT! This is a dusty pink. I thought this would be too pink for me, but actually I'm in love. I can see myself wearing this often.
Make like a banana and split! This is a berry shade. I think this would like better on me if I apply it really lightly. It can be little dark, so I need to make sure to apply a light coat or blot a little bit when I wear this.
Pretty please with a cherry on top! This is a deep plum shade. After I purchased these, I saw reviews about how cherry on top is patchy, but I was hoping that for me it wouldn't be. Now that I tried it, I could see how it could be patchy since this is the deepest shade. Some parts may be lighter or darker on the lips. It's not too bad, but you just need to apply it evenly and neatly.

Overall, I love these ultra blotted lips! Since it's lightweight, it feels like I'm not wearing any lipstick. It is long lasting and it's good when you're eating because this does not budge! The formula does not feel sticky at all. I want to try out the other three shades I didn't get as well. I think they are worth the try!

Get Ready with Me - Birthday Dinner


My first GRWM video! I decided to film myself while I got ready for my birthday dinner, on June 20th. Since this was my first video filming myself doing my makeup, the location was kinda weird. I mean I usually do my makeup where I am in the video, but to film it was kind of awkward since I had to face the side. I will find a better place next time :)
I hope you guys like it!
