L’oreal Extraordinaire Lip Color in 303 Rouge Allegro & 202 Coral Encore

How any times have we heard that what looks good doesn’t really taste good ..? So goes for makeup .. Usually a nice packing is road to disappointing product.. This gets proven wrong by the L’oreal Extraordinaire Lip Colors!! They come in 13 colors, cost around $10- $12 USD Each , highly pigmented lip glosses!!

Transform lips from ordinary to extraordinary. Color is richer, lip surface is smoother and shine is magnified. Formulated with precious micro-oils and rich color pigments, Extraordinaire provides the ideal balance of color and care for perfect lips. The unique soft-touch applicator allows for a silky-smooth, gliding application.

I have purchased 2 colors: 303 Rouge Allegro (Cherry Red- Fuchsia color) and 202 Coral Encore (Orange-Coral Color)
The packaging is super stylish, application is very easy, it just glides onto the lips. It feels a little “heavy/sticky” initially like most glosses but the best part … THE GLOSS DISSOLVES INTO A LIP STAIN!!

For those like me who hate to reapply lip colors, this outlasts the Revlon Lip Stains (which I truly loved) ..Any day !! I wore in the morning and had breakfast and coffee and I still had tinted lips till noon. My favorite is the 303 Rouge Allegro. The 202 Coral Encore doesn’t spread well and kinda “sits” on the lips .. No matter how hard I spread it , it forms a visible layer of color on the boundaries of my lips. ..

DIY: Matte top coat

I’ve been expanding my nail polish collection for a while now (I just bought a massive amount of Catrice polishes from mylittlepaperplane), but one thing that was seriously lacking, is a good matte top coat, or any matte polishes at all. I’ve been drooling over pictures of matte (mostly denim) polishes, and they just make a look so much classier!

Now, being the budget lover (and DIY lover) I am, I found this video on YouTube how to make your own matte top coat! I tried it, and it worked quite well! So, of course, I’ll share this with you too 🙂

What you need:

  • Clear nail polish
  • Corn starch
  • (paper) funnel

And that’s really all! I didn’t even use a funnel because.. Well I forgot it xD I made a bit of a mess but nothing really bad.

How it works:

  1. Make sure your bottle is not completely…
