Kylie Cosmetics KKW Creme Liquid Lipstick

So I was contemplating on whether I should order these liquid lipsticks but then decided to just get my hands on them. The formula was new and the shades would most likely not suit me except for the darker ones (maybe the 2 darkest). But the packaging is just so damn beautiful it was calling out to my soul... hahahha. Ok drama, I know. I kinda regretted not getting the KoKo Kollection after it was sold out and the packaging was ultra nice.

Look at these pretties.... so glad I ordered them. I got the one the first restock and they were still available few days after that. The first launch was probably sold out within an hour. They were later relaunched on kkwbeauty which is kinda expected. I hope Kim will do darker shades in the future!

I still have my eyes on the velvet formula - Strawberry Cream and Harmony. Maybe I will wait for some promo to be on before I get them. 

So formula wise I would say these KKW are like a liquid version of your normal bullet lipstick. Totally not matte nor long-lasting. They transfer like your gloss or normal lipstick. Colours are sheer. Easy to apply and do not dry which is a pretty nice change for me since Ive been using mostly the matte formula every since my LimeCrime phase. 

The colours from light to dark are:

Kimberly

Kim

Kiki

Kimmie

Honestly I can only carry off Kimmie the best and that is also when I have some make up on. 

As for the rest, I can still force Kiki to look alright on me but Kim and Kimberly is pretty much too pale on me aka will make look sick. I gave them to my SIL and they look great on her pale skin. If you have yellowish asian skin like mine, you can also probably take the darkest Kimmie. The rest you will probably not like at all. 

Since I kept Kiki and Kimmie, I have since mixed them with the other matte kylie liquid lip just to have that more balmy feel rather than dry feel, just on the days when I dont feel like putting on any make-up at all but I still need some lip colour. 

I didnt even bother to put on Kimberly and take another picture. If you can see that Kim already looks pale on me, you can pretty much guess that Kimberly will make me look more dead hahahah. I put on more makeup for the Kimmie pictures so they helped.

Pros:

Not drying at all! Which is a good change since I have been using matte liquid lip these days.

Odourless. Awesome change from the sickeningly sweet Kylie scent.

Cons:

I can only carry off 1 out of 4 colours. 

But, the other colours I can mix it with the other kylie which are too strong on its own.

Not long lasting. Need to reapply after every meal.

Kylie Lip Kit: Candy K, 22, Mary Jo K, Ginger, Exposed, Kristen

Ordered more Kylie Lip Kit!! Weehee.. 

Not sure if I have commented on the lasting power of the lipkits but here are pictures. 

I think I am wearing 22 here. Forgot the shade, I took this pic ages ago. 

This is what it looked like after I finished my bakchormee. If you are unfamiliar with liquid lipsticks, they usually will fade away on the center because of your food and depending on how oily your food it and what a messy eater you are, it will run more. I think I am a pretty neat eater. Usually my lipsticks only fade from the center portion of my lips.

Of course, when it gets oily, there will be transfer too. So, here is what the straw transfer look like. Actually when I am only drinking water, there will be a little transfer too, especially when you drink pretty immediately after you applied the lipstick.

Janice ordered Mary Jo K. This is what it looks on me and on Janice.

Mary Jo K. I have since ordered my own MJK. Will be posting more pictures later on. 

This is Ginger! So dark! Was expecting a little more orangey shade. What a shame.

Koko K Liner and LimeCrime Bleached and also a little 22 in the center. So many things to apply damnit. Love this look.

Wearing 22 here. Looks dark on me, as usual...

Mixing Ginger and Koko K. Looks like Posie K! 

This is a mixture of 22 and Koko K. I think it looks better on me compared to me applying both colour individually. Janice is wearing Ginger. Looks lighter on her than me.

Mixture of 22 and Koko K. Love this shade.

Candy K. Don't like the pictures here. I took it late at night and only had my reading light to help me. The rest of the lightings are yellow. They are super not-true-to-colour. Hate it. I will be posting more pictures later on when I bother to make up and have the sunlight.

Kristen here. It is darker on me again. Was expecting something more orangey pink.

Exposed here. Thing is with all these nude colours, people always think they look horrible on me hahahahaha. Not that I think i look great with them on but I don't think I look horrendous either. I think eye make up and outfit makes a lot of difference.

So far, here are the shades I own..

More to add to the collection - Mary Jo K and Dirty Peach (my absolute favourite!!)

#Candy K, #Exposed, #Kristen

Pros:

Long lasting - still have to re-apply after an oily meal especially in the center of the lips but I would suggest you just use the lip liner to reapply because if you use the liquid lipstick, it will crack and look even more horrible than it already is - the lines get more obvious. You can definitely apply your lip serum/cream before you apply them but remember to wipe them off because no liquid lipstick is going to last if you apply any balmish product before or after it.

Feels less dry compared to other liquid lipsticks I have tried.

Size is huge, it will last longer

Lip liner is buttery smooth, a joy to apply.

Liquid lipstick is not as sticky as other brand. Feels really light and not too much of a layer-y feel.

Cons:

Probably too little if you use it everyday, it won't last very long.

Highlights your lip lines

Lip liner will probably finish very quick

It's a chose to sharpen the lipliner (yes, I'm lazy but I will still do it hahah)

Liquid lipstick smell is too overwhelming

Kylie Lip Kit: Koko K

Soooo finally we got our hands on THE Kylie Lip Kit. There was a major restock and im glad i placed my order. 

After much deliberation between this and Candy K, I picked Koko K. As you know, my lips have a magical ability to convert any colour to shit (except orange of course) so I was feeling very cautious not to mention the fact that this set is expensive - if you compare to Lime crime. But then again maybe the price can be justified by saying you get 2 products - the liquid lipstick and the matching liner. 

OMG. I don't know what happened but I can swear I did up this post and published it but when I checked it just now, only the first paragraph was done up. Wth... ??

ANYWAY... 

So this is the lip liner.. it is much more smoother than I would have imagined. So far I only have the Urban Decay lip liner which is waterproof. And also the whole set of lip liner from 3CE. I don't think they claim it to be waterproof but they are pretty lasting to me. 

So the Kylie lip liner is very smooth, buttery, glides nicely. I used it for 2-3 times before I needed to sharpen it.

Liquid lipstick size is bigger than the usual Lime Crime size I am used to. Smell is a little bit overwhelmingly vanilla. I think this will last me forever.

The lip liner is of a lighter shade than the liquid lipstick. I had a feeling that it will match my Bleached and it did! 

Picture with the harsh light. Looks not smooth in the picture It does not look smooth in real life either. This picture is closer to the actual look of the lipkit on my lips. It highlights your cracks too but I would say probably less harsh than the LimeCrime ones. The application is smooth. Dries up fast but still enough time you to smooth it out. This colour is too light for me!! Not at all what I expected. You wouldnt believe how many YouTube video reviews I have watched and they all vary. Caucasian skin or lighter skin people really carry this colour much better compared to my yellow asian skin tone. I think it is also because my lips base are a little brownish instead of pale pinkish kind like what fairer people sports. No need to watch Youtube videos.. all the colours you see are very inaccurate, I feel. Somehow the videos have inaccurate lightings.. too bright... too yellow because maybe of the indoor lighting. I have mostly yellow lighting in the house and I HATE IT. I am ok with it when I don't have to write or do my handmade DIY stuff. But when I need to do those and also put on make up... yellow lighting is the absolute dread. OK. Enough ranting..

This is with a kinder lighting so everything looks smoother and better. This is how I would really have preferred it to look on me hahah. You really need to have your lips well moisturised before you apply this. I usually just slab on a thick layer of balm and apply my make up first. My lips will look better once im ready to apply my lipkit. There is also a way to apply it less harsh looking. Apply thin layer of balm on your lips. Then apply a little (i just glaze on the center of my lower lips) and then smooth it out. I usually stick to this method after yoga. Just to give myself a tinge of colour so u wont look too walking-dead. Good thing about this lipkit is that it blends well with the balm im using. Thats the 3CE Ho Balm. I use foreverything - my current go-to lazy multi-purpose product - face, lips, dry skin anywhere. Maybe ill do a review next time. 

Comparing it to my Bleached.. PERFECT match!

I have since ordered 22, Ginger, Exposed, Kristen, Candy K........ I know. Hahahah..

3CE Drawing Lip Pen Kit

Yay! Finally another 3 Concept Eyes product I get to own. Saw this online and after many days of mulling over how beautiful these colours are, I decided to just get the whole kit instead of individual colours to try out. 

Each of the pencil is sealed with their standard sticker. Same as the ones I see on their lipsticks.

The kit comes with 12 pencils ranging from light pink to dark purple. The last one looks like dark brown but it's more of a dark purple red. The box size is not fitted to the pencil size, when I opened it they are not aligned properly. 

Didnt realise that my pictures are not clear here. 

Anyway, the colours that come with the kit are:

#Need

#Little More

#Butter Pink

#Willowy

#You Got Me!

#Endear

#Beware

#Mayhap

#Sloe Gin

#Crush On You

#Born Red

#Chilling

This is the transfer after I applied it. It's pretty promising! Just very little transfer. I am loving this already it looks very promising! When I blot on tissue very little amount is transferred also.

First colour I tried is Butter Pink! Looks pretty light but I am very hopeful.

This is what it looks on me. Pretty alright. Not too sickeningly white. 

Looks bit orangey in this picture I've filtered. One of the stupid faces I usually send over to Conrad so he won't forget what I look like hahahah. Love how it looks here! 

This is after my dinner. Looking sick here hahah. Colour is not totally worn off, still a bit left but it no longer looks as solid as when I firstly applied it. You will need to apply it after you have your meals but you can get away with not reapplying also. Depends on how OCD you really are. 

Second colour is Endear. 

I think it looks ok! Best things about these lip pencils are, they are so easy to apply, glides on really smoothly, very long lasting, don't break easily, so far out of the so many I have tried, only one tip snapped and that because I applied it perpendicularly down on my lips. Sharpening them will be a chore though but it will last pretty long before you need to sharpen them. Some lip pencils run out pretty fast and I need to sharpen after 2-3 applications, like my Urban Decay waterproof one. Oh yeah, have yet to do a review on that. Haven't tried this lip pencil while swimming but from what I have learnt, there are NO waterproof makeup that are really waterproof. They all run lighter after a dip. My eyebrows will be gone.. My coloured lips will be gone.. My eyeshadow will be gone.. Only a faint hint that there were there to begin with hahah.. Still in my quest to find really a waterproof face. 

Next colour I tried! Also pretty good! Am really loving this palette hahah.. It's a pinkish colour.

Yep, another one of those hahaha. Looks better with filter. 

Ok, this colour is totally OFF on me. I look sick hahahahah. Oh well.. Still need to find a matching eye makeup for this look. I am never sure of what to match a sick nude lips and a goth lips look.

Much better after I decided to apply You Got Me on the center. Gradation look saved the day. Koreans call it gradation though proper word is gradient? Anyway I keep seeing gradation every time they talk about this ombre look.

Next colour is Willowy. Love this colour! It's like my nude neutral pink. Just applied my Etude brow gel so my brows look like crayon shinchan hahaha.. 

Next colour is Born Red, Kinda look goth red on me almost like Lime Crime Red Velvet.

Ok finally the only plum berry red shade I will probably ever own. It looks still pretty ok on me but makes me look angry too! Hahahah.. The pencil is in brown, I thought it will be brown initially. 

Next up is Beware. Looks kinda nicki minaj pinkish. They are all different but if you ask me to just pick from the lip case to test me which is which colour and what they look applied on me, I will never know. I guess I need to memorise one or two that I can just grab and go for when I travel or in a hurry. This is a great travel item! No need to keep applying especially if you are the type who snacks and drinks a lot like yours truly.

3CE Drawing Lip Pen Kit 

Pros

Pretty long lasting.

Glides on smoothly.

Does not highlight lip lines - only a little bit, so much better compared to other matte lip products.

Doesnt look very matte.

Not very drying.

Not sticky when you smack your lips together.

Transfer proof.

Easily removable with micellar lotion.

Cons

Need to sharpen.

If your lips are like me, 1 or 2 colours might look OFF on your lips.

That's all I can think off. This lip kit is so awesome it's my favourite lip product at the moment besides the new 3ce matte lipstick that I got. Still thinking if I should order the other 2 special colours. They look not much different from each other but i can't help it. My itchy finger wants to click "BUY" hahahah..
