Ever Bilena Kris Matte Matic Lipstick Review

        Another fact that I should add on the list of "Facts About Me" is that I am a certified lipstick junkie. I just love trying out new lipsticks regardless of its brand and of course, sharing my thoughts about them here on my blog. While I haven't really blog all of my lipsticks which is now more or less twenty despite having to throw some, here I'll be sharing my thoughts about two of my favorite go-to lipsticks.

        These two are from a local Filipino cosmetics brand called Ever Bilena. It may not be known worldwide yet, but I'm pretty sure a lot of Filipinas including me love their products. The brand is well-loved for its affordable prices and I must say that through the years, they have stepped up the game of their brand not just with their campaign, but also formula wise. One of the highly-anticipated line from Ever Bilena is their makeup collection with the Philippines' Queen of All Media - Ms. Kris Aquino. The queen of talk is known for her wise words and honest remarks about something, which is not a surprise considering that she is one of the highest-paid and trusted endorsers in our country. Knowing all about that from Kris also made me look forward about her line with EB. Together with EB, she has released a number of products now. They have blush-ons, face powders, eyebrow pencils, glosses, and of course, these matte lipsticks which I have in two of its more popular shades. I believe they do have four or five shades of lipsticks these days.

    I got the matte lipsticks from the Kris line called Love and Life. First of all, who would hate the names of these beauties? I love the idea that I am swiping both love and life on my lips. Honestly, it made me feel so special! lol

    The shade Love, well you could tell by its name, comes in a bright shade of red. I love the color payoff of this shade. I should say that it's a perfect shade for any skin tone. Because of its good pigmentation, you may have to slow down on using this one if you're really not used into wearing bold lip colors. What I mean is that it could get too bright especially when you're going to wear it in the daytime. However, that's fine and the shade could really work well this summer season. There's no reason to be ashamed of wearing bold lip colors anyway so go ahead and swipe love on your lips!

    The only thing that I don't like about this shade is that it gets so drying on the lips. You know those lippies that like they suck out the moisture of your lips? This could be that product so I highly recommend using a lip moisturizer before using this one. 

     The shade Life is in the pink hue. It's definitely not a bold pink shade. I would say that this has a cooler tone of pink, almost like nude pink. I'm not mad with the shade and even though it doesn't look bad on me, I would say that it's a bit too light for me. My skin is in a yellow undertone so I imagine this would be too light for you if you have a deeper skin tone. Unlike the shade Love, Life is more moisturizing. It probably has something to do with its formula because this doesn't feel drying at all. However, this removes much faster than the shade Love even when you're just drinking water. The next thing you knew, you're not wearing any lipstick at all.

       What I love most about the two colors though is that both can be blended easily and it looks so good. You could go deeper and cooler with it however you want to and depending of course, on your skin color.

🤑💸Price💸🤑

Ever Bilena Kris Matte Matic Lipstick costs 245php that more or less 5USD. A real score right?

📦Packaging📦

When you purchase the product, it comes in a compact box which fits the lipstick well with the name of the brand and of course, Kris'name. Nothing so grand about it but it does have all the necessary information that you have to know about the product. The lipstick itself can be used by opening its cap and twisting it for the lipstick to surface.

💖😍💄What I Love About the Products 💄💖😍

- Affordable

- Have creative names

-Good pigmentation

- Colors can be mixed easily with other colors

- The red shade by itself or when mixed with the pink shade looks really good for everyone who has a morena skin tone

 💋😞What I Like Least About the Products 😞💋

- The color doesn't really last long 2-3 hours max with no retouch and when you don't eat anything (If you're going to eat something wet, expect all of the color to come off)

- The red shade in Love could feel really dry on the lips

All Ever Bilena products including Kris' line is available in all leading drugstores and cosmetics department nationwide. They can also be purchased at EB's very own website and other certified online shops.
