[Review + Swatch] L.A Girls Glazed Lip Paint in Tease and Gleam

Hi, Lovely! It’s been a while, huh! I've updated some photos about my new play kit but I don’t update much in my blog. I think it’s harder to update in my blog, I don’t know why. My mood swings  much~ Eng .. no, no at all. *cough* 


Alright, so you may call me as a old-fashioned lady or outdated. I don’t buy latest collection but yeah, I don’t mind. I wanna buy what I want. I recently fall into lip products. Lipstick, Liquid Lipstick, Colorful Lipstick, everything beside lip gloss. Lip gloss obviously have glossy finish and it makes my lip look too oily. Ew. Another negative point of lip gloss in me is too sticky and I don’t like it. At all.

Then, it comes into a “trend” called liquified lipstick and lip paint. The well named products are Too Faced Melted and L.A Girl Glazed Lip Paint (so many people call it as the Melted's dupe!). 

I picked Glazed one because it's incredibly affordable and I don't think I wanna splurge money in lip product. Splurging money in lip product is a waste in me because whenever I eat, I'll keep "kissing" my food with my lips! XD

Let's start to my first lip paint!

♥♥♥ Packaging (4/5):
For affordable product, this packaging wins my heart. It comes in a plastic tube in glossy look with a slanted plastic applicator. This kinda applicator is efficient because I can apply it on my lips easily with no additional tool, like lip brush. However, this kinda applicator is hard to apply in a perfect shape.This product is travel friendly and colorful. The "glazed" tube is amazing. 

♥♥♥ Ingredients (5/5):
I love how it is composed. It contains seed oil, mineral oil and peppermint leaf oil and no any harmful chemical, even Paraben. It's kinda rare to find in drugstore products. Since it contains peppermint leaf oil, I can feel the "cool" feeling from peppermint. Me likey. XD


♥♥♥ Color (2/5):
I pick Tease and Gleam. Tease is a bright shocking pink, but I think it's more into Magenta, purple ish tone. Gleam is golden brown one in a warm tone. Both of them have glitters in but Tease one is chunkier. They're superb pigmented and it covers my lips perfectly.

If you think I am happy with the colors I pick, no, I am not. At all. They're superb disappointing. I checked its official site and the color is totally different and it doesn't make me happy.

The official version:


What I've got:
Left to Right:
Gleam and Tease (freshly applied), Gleam and Tease (dried)

Duh duhh duhh.. I used to see the swatches in its official site, but it becomes a valuable lesson to learn. You should check swatches in bloggers, vloggers or whoever have the product earlier. They would look beautiful in lighter skin tone. It's definitely NOT for me.

Longevity (3/5):
It stays good for 4-6 hours with no oily food. It's kinda so so because it needs to touch up every after meal time.

♥♥♥ Finishing Effect (4/5):
The effect is kinda shimmered look with a glossy finish. It looks pretty and it would help to conceal cracked lips. However, I'm a lil bit annoyed of the chunky glitter in Tease. Too much for me.
So, here pros and cons:
♥♥♥  Pros:
- Affordable
- Pigmented and it covers lip perfectly
- Travel friendly

♥♥♥ Cons:
- The color turns much brighter/darker and it's totally different from its official site.
- The applicator is not easy to make a perfect lip shape
- Tease has chunky glitter
- Need to touch up every after meal.

Overall result is 3.6 and it's average. 

If you wanna ask me to repurchase, I think I will not. It's too glossy and I think I'm not into glossy that much.
Here's my look with Glazed Lip Paint:



Do you have this lip paint? What do you think?:D

Thanks for reading, Lovely! ♥
