SMOKEY EYES & LIPS IN THE NUDE
What’s cookin’, good lookin’? If you are a regular reader, you might have noticed that I lose some weight — I’m back to size Small — as I have been vigorously working out since the first week of January. I want to keep this weight as much as possible because I feel a lot lighter than having a size Medium in clothes especially when moving around and chasing down a very hyper toddler.
Anyway, today’s makeup look was something I have been wanting to achieve since I bought this Maybelline Color Sensational Lipcolor in Warm Me Up (PHP399.00 for 0.8 oz) last month because, you know, I miss wearing smokey eyes it hurts.
Did I like this lipstick? Let’s find out!
WARM ME UP 235
At the moment, there are 52 shades under the Color Sensational® Lipcolor collection. Out of these colors, I settled on Warm Me Up shade because I thought it was going to be suitable with my morena skin, which has warm/yellow undertones.
Maybelline claims it has a crisper color from pure pigments and creamier feel from nourishing honey nectar. It’s quite hydrating for the first couple of hours and sadly drying after four to five hours on me. No worries. I was aware because having tiny splits on my lips has been my issue with most drugstore lipsticks. To add, it has been so cold that makes my lips more fragile.
To end this up, I absolutely love the color and I thought it was a good buy because I received a 30% discount during the holidays. That’s all for now! I miss you!
Eye makeup details: LORAC Palette Deep Purple (lid), Taupe (crease), Mauve (crease), Lt. Bronze (mid lid), Cream (brow bone), Champagne (tear duct), Taupe (eyebrows); MAC Blacktrack (eyeliner).
I thought it looked really similar to My Mahogany which is one of the best IMBB shades I’ve found. Warm Me Up is a bit more pink and looks great on you! I wish these lasted longer but for the price, these are great. 🙂

Out of curiosity, I checked out My Mahogany! Yeah, I agree Warm Me Up leans toward pink/mauve undertones while My Mahogany is more brown/peachy. Now I want to get My Mahogany! Thanks for mentioning, Xuvious. 😉

Oh, gorgeous! I love how warm and soft this is on you. A perfect nude, I’d say! I think I actually have a shade from this collection.. hm, a pink one though. Now I’m curious about it.. 🙂 btw, I also am loving your eyes 😈 😈

I tried this color a long time ago and it looked horrible on my cool lips and skin. I gave it to my friend who has warm undertones and it looked AWESOME. I was so jealous!

If you’re thinking of getting MAC Brave (if you don’t have it yet), you can skip it for now na. Except for the tiny silver shimmers that MAC Brave has, Warm Me Up is an exact color dupe.

Thank you, Rae! That MAC Brave sounds better though. I will check it out!

Thank you, Agata! I have another lipstick from Maybelline but this time it’s color red. I will blog it sometime next week. Well, I am kinda lazy these days. Must be the gloomy weather. Every time I want to take pics, the sun is starting to hide. IDK what’s up with that. Haha. Thank you for the visit! 😮 😮 😮

I know what you mean about the light. I have the same problem. Sometimes I will create a look I like and I want to take a selfie for future reference but it’s so dark outside and the artificial light inside doesn’t do the colors justice!
And you’re welcome and thanks for stopping by my blog too! Take care!

Hey Laarni, welcome back! Glad to hear your effort is paying off!
I like how healthy this shade looks on you! Most nude lipsticks wash my out bad, but this one is definitely pink enough 🙂 I hope your lips will be healthier soon and that this won’t be drying anymore!

52 shades total! Wow! I had no idea! 😀 This color looks so much more beautiful on your lips than arm swatches! I thought it was going to be too brown but surprisingly it’s not at all! Great pick, Laarni! And yay for losing weight! I always feel a hundred times lighter even when I only lose a half pound. LOL.
This is beautiful on you!! Very flattering! <3

It looks different on you that what I would’ve expected just by looking at the color from the tube, but in a good way. The pinkishness comes out on your lips, and it looks sheer and natural. Good choice!
I probably miss out on a lot of great lipstick colors, because I tend to judge from the tube. :))

Maybe I got a dud but the texture of this particular one was WAY off on me. It was waxy and very patchy:( I do love the colour too but the texture …yeah didnt work out for me. so different to see you in a nude lip colour Laarni. Suits you!!
