PRODUCT SPOTLIGHT: LOOKING FOR A CHEAP HOT PINK LIPSTICK?

Bold hot pink lips will never go out of style, just as much red lipsticks are timeless. Top it with gloss for a flirty fun look, sans the strong and overpowering bold aura of red lipsticks, then wear it matte for a fun vintage spice on your make- up.

Fuschia or "true" hot pink lipsticks can be found in expensive brands such as make- up forever and mac. Due to recession, our instincts and wallet instructs us to go out and be on the look out for cheap yet effective products.

Here's my initial review on THE FACE SHOP'S COLOR SHINE ROUGE LIPSTICK IN 203

PRICE: 490PHP+

PLACE BOUGHT: THE FACE SHOP, THE FORT HIGH STREET, FORT BONIFACIO, TAGUIG CITY

OTHER LOCATIONS: ALL THE FACE SHOP OUTLETS NATIONWIDE

THE VERDICT:

The reason why I bought this is because of the unique pink- orange combination that gave birth to a lovely hot pink lipstick. It has a creamy consistency that makes it glide well on the lips and it is packed with moisturizers and shine to keep your puckers slick and moisturized all throughout the day. Plus, it has shine so our lips will look delectable and juicy the whole day.

It comes in a sophisticated square tube colored in brown and gold. And for less than 500php, you'll get a pretty good deal with this lipstick.

Overall, it's pink, but the orange undertone intensified the color, making it look as if it's a fuschia colored lipstick. Some might find this a bit orange- y, depending on the skin tone. But nevertheless, the hot pink color is very evident in fair skinned ladies while it's a lovely strong pink with an orange glow for morena ladies. Either you're fair or dark skinned, it still goes off as a lovely hot pink lipstick!

The staying power is relatively good, because when I use this, it stands for around an hour or two. But if you use your mouth a lot, chances are, you could wipe it off your lips.

So think twice before spending a fortune on make- up for ever or mac. If you would like to save, you better make a stop in The Face Shop and Check this baby out yourself.
