Review + Swatch: Happy Skin Power Pout Moisturizing Lip Lacquer in Royal Treatment

 Though I haven't had a lot of reviews in the past I would still want to share my personal thoughts and experiences with the products I've tried. I like reading other people's feedback, as for me, somehow it helps me know what to expect from a product and if it's worth the try.

I'm currently obsessed with lip products. Especially now that I can't experiment too much with face products because of a face regimen that I have to strictly follow. So as not to overspend, I try products one shade at a time. This time I finally got to try Happy Skin. This is my first product from the brand. A lot of beauty enthusiasts have been raving with their lipsticks. When I saw the Moisturizing Lip Lacquer in Royal Treatment, I thought the color is similar to my Mary Kay liquid lip color in Raspberry Ice . Since it's running out and discontinued, I have an excuse to try Happy Skin.

 

Swatch

Product Rating: 4/5
Price: Php 699 through Zalora

The Good:
- Beautiful color pay-off.
- It's opaque but does not feel heavy, just the right consistency.
- Glossy texture not too overwhelming. It's a hybrid of liquid lipstick and gloss.

The Not-So-Good:
- Doesn't settle on the lips.
- Easily transfers to anything that touches the lips. To retain color, multiple retouch must be done .
- Poor staying power.
- Not the best value for its price.

But, but I love the color! It's a beautiful mauvey plum. If not for that, I would have given it a 3 rating. That's what we call compromise. I would also blot the lips using tissue and apply another coat to make it last just a bit longer.

I would love to try other Happy Skin lippies though.

 Until next time

What I like:
This is a lip balm made mostly out of natural ingredients. No petroleum, mineral oil which is a really great thing given that it is an amazing product. You only get the good sources of moisturizing agents from it. I love the subtle fruity, sweet scent. It's not sticky. Lips feel so soft when I use this especially overnight.

What could be better:
The availability. I got this from Cosmoprof Expo in Hong Kong a year ago. Felt so lucky I got to try these. Some online shops may be selling but I haven't seen one so far. And don't have any idea how much it costs.

What I hate:
There is nothing I don't like about this lip product. Except when it runs out and I don't know where to find one. Any suggestions on where to get this is welcome.


Have you tried this product? How was it? I'd love to know your experience as well.


Thanks for dropping by.
