 Hey dreamcatchers!
Ever since I was introduced to lipsticks I super love "matte" finish.
If you follow me on my social sites then you prolly know that I love MATTE
and ofcourse I SUPER LOVE Affordable(beauty in a budget) prices!lol.

Like Wet N Wild has gone viral on online shop like before I felt I was the only one who
knows WNW. And now, the online shops are raving about city color cosmetics.
If it wasn't sale I might not order.
Got these babies for only PhP 145.00 each that's because I availed the wholesale price
from Makeupholics. Minimum of 12 pcs(My friends also ordered haha)

bought from: Makeupholics
price:
Was: P350.00
Now only: P210.00
Wholesale Promo: P145.00 each min of 12pcs
 From Website Price: $4.99/Net Wt: 0.105 oz. / 2.90 g

From the 36 shades I only got 6 of them. And I actually want to avail more..
The colors are very opaque and rich. At first, I wasn't impressed when I
opened it up since it wasn't neat or should I say there were a lot of "scratch" on the surface.
Though, it isn't really an issue after I swatched it on my arm.
It's pigmented and like MATTE matte.hihi

Pros:
-Affordable
-Rich in color
-True to its color
-Longlasting
 -Matte and Non Drying
-A lot of colors to choose from(36colors!!)
-No irritating scent

 Cons:
-Not that creamy
-Does not have a smooth application
-Available online only
-Ugh..slightly bulky?!I don't like that's like long and have corners
