Nothing really special about the packaging. Not nice or anything. It's simply boring. But you can't really complain much because it's cheap so yeah. The brand is ELLEFAR  and I got the colors Elegant Mauve and Clear Coral. If you don't speak colors, it's pretty much hot pink and orange. Yay!  To open the lid of the lipstick, you have to remove the plastic covering it so the only thing you could hold on to is the label below the lipstick like the picture above. The swatch of "Clear Coral" is kind of longer because I didn't expect it to be that pigmented so I kind of recklessly drew a line so yeah. They go on very smooth actually. I was a little bit surprised too when I applied it. I am pretty impressed with how vibrant the colors are. As you can see in the photo though, since I have dry skin, it basically followed the texture of my skin so if you're gonna apply this on your lips, you better have exfoliated, smooth lips.  ...

I don't really like the color. Maybe it's just the color though. Other than the color, the consistency, application, and simple packaging is nice. But you know! You have to get the proper color of lipstick for you to totally rock it, yeah? Here's how the packaging looks like. Quite simple. I like how there's a "snippet" of what color the lipstick would be at the bottom. I like black tubes for lipstick. I don't know why. LOL. But only with the color thingy. Like, when you put all your black tubes together, it's kind of complicated. Unless you only have one color from each brand you own, then I guess, it's fine. And just like any items I own, I don't have an idea whether or not this is discontinued, how much this is, or anything else that I wouldn't be telling in this post. :) And if you haven't guessed it already, YES. My auntie gave this to me. For some reason, her taste is kind of weird. But I still love love her. :D...

First of all, you have to know that I am not a professional when it comes to this things so you could probably agree with me or disagree completely. It's like that take it or leave it thingy. And I don't mind. Thank you very much. Let's get started. I actually promised to bring you this review so yeah. :)) This is what it looks like. From the very look of it, I thought there wouldn't be much inside and stuff but yeah, it actually contains a little more than what I've expected. I don't know whether it was mom or auntie who gave this to me but THANKS. I appreciate it.  I actually tried to picture this same stuff yesterday (night) but nah, didn't work out so the brushes look like that and the colors that you will be seeing below are kind of messed up and stuff. The eyeliner is jet black! It's creamy and nice. The MASCARA is my favorite! It gives you length and volume. It's just awesome. I actually tried to use the brushes provided but...

I can't really stand the previous lip balm that I used so I got another one. And this time it's from Maybelline. It's actually the second Maybelline lip product that I've tried and so far, so good.  I don't know. I tried to look for couple of products there but yeah I don't know.  I love that it has SPF and stuff. Well, you know what that does, aye? Anyways. I picked the darkest one so to make up for that almost colorless tinge that my previous lip balm gives. And it's really non sticky. Basically, I have nothing against it. But I don't know if I like it that much. Pretty normal I should say. But really not bad after all. It comes off like that. This tube is actually smaller than the Nivea thus it weighs only 4.5 g compared to 4.8 g of the Nivea. But whatevs. I'm just saying.  The color pay off is not bad :) But not that great either. It doesn't really stay that long so you have to kind of re-apply once in a while an...
