Skin Food!

A friend of mine recently came back from a trip to Korea and she bought me a lip palette by Skin Food.  I have to admit, I've never heard of the brand before but being the makeup lover that I am, I just had to look it up!

Here is the lip palette that she bought for me:

The colours definitely show up and it's nice because I can mix and match the colours to suit my look or mood :) It reminds me of a lip tint because it gives a nice sheen with a obvious colour.  If I ever go to Korea, I would definitely buy more Skin Food products!

Turns out that Skin Food is a huge brand in Korea and is slowing gaining market favour in the West.
This past week, I had a girls trip down to LA and coincidently, another friend of mine was a huge fan of Skin  Food too!

She introduced me to a site where I can buy Skin Food in Canada to get the best of Korean Cosmetics in our own backyard! yay! (https://www.momomango.com).  She is absolutely in love with the Black Sugar Mask and she's not the only one...I've checked the site for a few days and that product is still sold out! :(

Bite Beauty

My new lip love :)  Bite Beauty cosmetics exclusively at Sephora (at the moment)!

I have the Lychee color Bite Lip Tint and it is a shear mauve-ish type of color.  Perfect colour for the office and with just a hint of colour.   Despite the sheerness, I absolutely love the pigmentation and moisturizing effect the little "B" does on my lips.  The "B" is the white portion of the lipstick.

The product smell delicious and it even says it has fruit properties that make them good enough to eat!  Imagine that!  However, it does make sense...our lipstick color fades and for the most part it's because we eat it!

I was not able to find any more information on Bite Beauty website but in their quick intro, they explained the revolutionary properties of the "B".  The "B" provides resveratrol which is commonly found in red wine that has beneficial properties to humans.  It is super moisturizing when compared to my Clinique lipsticks and MUFE lip colours.  They also have a wide range of colours from shear lip tints to striking bold colours!

On that note...a good friend of mine recently purchased the Bite Beauty High Pigment Matte Pencil in Zinfandel.  Gorgeous colour that was matte, vibrant, and outstanding.  I do like the bold colours and when it's matte, it makes it that much more natural :)  She also said it was very creamy despite it being matte!

Check out this product line - I think you'll enjoy it!
