*UPDATED!* NARS AUDACIOUS LIPSTICK

• wearing the lipstick by itself

• wearing it as a stain with a hint of lip balm

So i finally gave in to the new NARS Audacious lipstick hype. I must admit i was excited and overwhelmed at the amount of shades and the vivid colors. It's as if i was in lipstick heaven. There's just something about a good old Nars lipstick that keeps me wanting for more i mean i'm already head over heels in love with my Nars Schiap and Dolce vita lipsticks and i'm just so excited to finally get my hands on the audacious line. That day i was feeling a little experimental and since i don't own anything purple on the lipstick department i thought why not? You gotta live a little. There were three purple shades namely Angela, Silvia and Dominique. 

First of all the new packaging is amazing, the tubes are so much bigger than their old lipsticks and i love the magnetic packaging which makes it easier to clean. The lipsticks were once again very pigmented and for some reason this line was more long lasting compared to the old one which is a plus. 

The moment i tried angela on my lips i was completely amazed. I would never in a million years thought a purple lipstick would actually look good on me. It's not something that i would normally go head over heels in love with but i think it's about time i finally get a purple shade. I knew i just had to get it and so i did! It's perfect for the fall trend, you can just wear it with bold brows and a messy pony tail and you're good to go and i really think it's one of the wearable kinds of purples. I personally love wearing it as a stain and it suits my cool skin tone perfectly and it's perfect for fall. I do wish i had gotten another shade (vera)  just so i can alternate the two but i was rushing to catch my flight (bummer) so maybe next time. But so far i'm in love with angela, i don't have to wear it every single day which is perfectly fine with me since i don't want to over use it. So have you guys tried the Nars Audacious Lipstick line? Which shade is your favourite? 

Top 6 Fall lip colors

Nothing gets me more excited than experimenting on lip colors especially when the ber-months are kicking in (Fall-Winter) because then i can have an excuse to wear some bold lip colors like some reds to berry and plum lip colors which i normally wouldn't wear on a regular basis but since it's fall (ber-months) i guess it's quite appropriate to wear bolder lip colors but it doesn't necessarily mean that you have to ditch your nudes and pinks, you can still wear them because those colors will never go out of style. So if you're feeling a bit more experimental and you wanna go with the trend then head to your nearest department store or drugstore and grab some of these gorgeous lip colors perfect for fall. With that said here are some of my top 5 picks for fall. 

BE INSPIRED: October

Can we just stop and take a moment to let it all sink in. .it is finally October! I'm particularly excited about Halloween y'all, i mean don't we all? Okay maybe not but i'm just really obsessed with everything fall even though we will never experience it here in the Philippines. I just love seeing posts about fall fashion, pumpkin spice lattes, horror movies and all that good stuff. There's just something about fall that makes me feel at ease and it brings out the kid in me for some reason. Even when i was a kid i've always been excited about halloween just as much as christmas. But mainly i'm just looking forward to another month to just to be able to improve myself and learn more from people and looking forward to what life has in store for me. Every month is different but you can just take it as it is and try your best to do good and be happy and thankful that you're still here. No room for negativity whatsoever. So with that said here are some wise words to jumpstart your month :) 

DECOR INSPIRATION: Kitchen

I've always dreamed of a white kitchen, there's just something about the color white that's very calming and it brings sort of like a relief in everything which explains why our room is white. It just really makes your personal space clean, classy and homey at the same time, i mean who wouldn't wanna come home to a very relaxing place,  i'm pretty sure everyone will agree with me on this one. And if you know me then you know i consider cooking very therapeutic so i would really want a clean kitchen. By the way, our room is slowly coming together which i'm very happy about but i don't think i can decorate our kitchen yet since it's not exactly big and you really can't play around with it because it has this boring grayish color but who know's one of these days we can fix it to our liking so for the meantime i'm gonna share some snippets of my favourite dream kitchen inspirations that i got on Pinterest.

Everyday nudes and pinks

I know i have been neglecting my blog, no excuses needed i was just feeling a little uninspired with everything in my life these past few days, but here i am again feeling all giddy, I finally have my mojo back! (Exciting times :D)

With that said i'm just gonna hop right in to the purpose of this blog post which is my top 5 favourite lip products for everyday use because let's be real people, you don't need to wear a bold lipstick every single day. 

1. Nichido lip pencil (Rosette)

I've always loved how Kylie Jenner lines her thin lips and make it look like she had lip injections. As much as people like to bash every single celebrity who went under the knife and got their lips done or even celebrities who were born with the Angelina Jolie pout you can't deny the countless amounts of teenage girls to women in their mid 40's who try to achieve fuller lips. I am not againts surgeries or anything as i've said it's a matter of choice but if you are like me and if you opt for the safer and less painful way then a lip pencil is your new bestfriend. I'm thankful that i have full lips to begin with and what i do is i just line the outer part of my lips to enhace the shape then i always use a brownish pink lip liner to achieve the 90's lip trend. For those who have thin lips, you can line your lips starting on the outside along the  highlights of your lip and work your way down to your bottom lip until you achieve a much fuller lip. Another tip is to conceal the sides of your lip to emphasize the shape and don't forget to highlight the bottom part of your lip. 

2. Revlon lipstick (Stormy pink)

 On days where i just wanna wear some color but i don't want anything too bold or too plain then i always grab this lipstick. Although i'm not quite sure if this certain shade will suit any skin color i think you can play it up by mixing it with a mauvey lipstick to tone down the soft violet hint or you can just wear it as it is. This shade is actually a dupe for the Mac Pink Nouveau lipstick so if you prefer to go with the expensive one then go for Mac but honestly the Revlon one is also really good. If you don't wanna use up your Pink Nouveau lipstick then i suggest you get the dupe for everyday use.

3. Revlon just bitten kissable balm stain (honey douce)

This shade is so perfect for everyday use. I love that it's almost the shade of my lip color but a bit more opaque so it really enhances my lips and i love the fact that it's a balm so it doesn't dry out my lips and i also love that it has a slight mint to it so it to gives a cooling effect. 

4. Everbilena lipstick (mauvey)

I've talked about this in my previous post and up to now i still find myself grabbing this whenever i just want a slight color on my lips and i sometimes use this as a base to mix with other lip colors. It is by far the cheapest lipstick i own and i just can't seem to let go of this.

5. NYX soft matte lip cream (Stockholm)

This is my current obsession. I couldn't picture myself buying a shade like this a year ago but now i'm just so into the whole nudish brown lip color and  that i wouldn't mind wearing it everyday. I just love how it's nude but it has a slight hint of pink which makes me rock a nude lip without looking like a sick person.
