Asteria Beauty

Skincare itu ada banyak macamnya, dimulai dari pembersih, facial wash, toner, essence, serum, ampoule, pelembab, sunscreen, dll. Dari seluruh bentuk skincare, aku paling suka pakai serum, mungkin karena dalam pikiranku serum itu adalah skincare yang paling ampuh (sebenarnya kurang tepat, ampoule itu seharusnya lebih ampuh/kuat, hehe). Karena itu, aku merasa beruntung banget ketika aku dapat serum dari Somethinc secara gratis setelah menang giveaway dari Female Daily! Aku dapat dua serumnya Somethinc, yaitu Somethinc HYALuronic B5, yang merupakan serum hyaluronic acid, dan Somethinc Niacinamide + Moisture Beet Serum, yang merupakan serum niacinamide.

Perlu waktu yang cukup lama untuk aku review serum-serum ini karena ketika aku dapat produk-produk ini serumku yang sebelumnya masih ada. Setelah lebih dari satu bulan sejak aku menerima hadiah ini, akhirnya aku akan review mereka!

Somethinc HYALuronic B5
Price: IDR115,500
Packaging: botol frosted berwarna biru, awalnya aku kira serumnya yang berwarna biru, haha. Ukurannya kecil dan tidak berat.
Scent: tidak ada aroma.
Texture: tidak kental maupun benar-benar cair, cairannya runny (ringan jadi mudah mengalir) dan sedikit lengket, tapi mudah dibaurkan dan menyerap dengan cepat.

Source:  Skin Carisma
Ingredients:
Water, Allantoin, Disodium EDTA, Butylene Glycol, Glycerin, Hydroxyethylcellulose, Hyaluronic Acid, Panthenol, Phenoxyethanol, Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Seed Extract, Glutathione, Fragrance

Great Ingredient — Comedogenic / Fungal Acne Trigger — Be Aware
Claims:
Memberikan kelembaban maksimal pada kulit ~ yes
Melembutkan & mencerahkan kulit yang kusam sehingga wajah tampak glowing ~ yes dan idk
Membuat kulit menjadi kenyal & sehat ~ yes
Result:
Serum ini bekerja dengan baik di kulitku untuk memberi hidrasi tambahan dan mencegah dari dehidrasi pada kulit. Aku merasa kulitku menjadi sedikit lebih halus ketika menggunakan serum ini, mungkin karena kulitku menjadi lebih baik hidrasinya. Aku tidak berekspektasi apa-apa pada serum ini sejak awal, jadi aku tidak kecewa dalam hal apapun. Klaim yang diberikan kebanyakan betul-betul terjadi, kecuali klaim mereka bahwa produk ini dapat mencerahkan kulit yang kusam, seenggaknya pada kulitku sih kurang kelihatan, ya. Mungkin klaim tersebut dapat terlihat lebih jelas pada orang yang memiliki permasalahan kulit kusam yang dikarenakan kulit yang dehidrasi. Aku terkesan dengan ingredients-nya karena minimal dan banyak yang merupakan kandungan yang bagus. Secara keseluruhan, aku rasa ini adalah serum yang bagus untuk menambahkan hidrasi ekstra, namun tidak lebih dari itu.

Pros:
+ bekerja dengan baik pada kulitku untuk menambah hidrasi ekstra
+ melembutkan kulit
+ cepat menyerap ke dalam kulit
+ minimal ingredients
+ produk lokal
+ terjangkau

Cons:
- packagingnya kurang menarik untukku (sorry)

Overall rating: 4.5/5

Somethinc Niacinamide + Moisture Beet Serum
Price: IDR115,500
Packaging: botol frosted berwarna putih. Ukurannya kecil dan tidak berat.
Scent: tidak ada aroma.
Texture: sedikit kental dan lengket, sedikit lebih lengket daripada HYALuronic B5, namun sama mudahnya untuk dibaurkan dan menyerap dengan cepat.

Source: Skin Carisma
Ingredients:
Water, Allantoin, EDTA, Niacinamide, Hydroxyethylcellulose, Glycerin, Butylene Glycol, Fructooligosaccharides, Beta Vulgaris (Beet) Root Extract, Phenoxyethanol, Fragrance

Great Ingredient — Comedogenic / Fungal Acne Trigger — Be Aware
Claims:
Membantu untuk mencerahkan ~ yes
Meningkatkan tekstur kulit ~ yes
Memperkuat pelindung kulit ~ yes
Menyingkirkan spot2 hitam/hyperpigmentasi ~ maybe
Melembabkan ~ yes
Mengembalikan kekenyalan ~ no
Mengatasi kemerahan ~ yes!
Melawan jerawat ~ yes
Mengurangi tampilan kulit kering & rusak ~ maybe
Result:
Aku cukup terkejut ketika melihat banyak banget klaim untuk produk ini. Untungnya, klaim yang diberikan kebanyakan terbukti (setidaknya di kulitku), aku cuma nggak melihat serum ini membantu untuk mengembalikan kekenyalan. Serum ini paling membantu pada kemerahan di wajahku (yes!), mencerahkan, dan juga membantu jerawat menjadi lebih cepat tenang. Menurutku ingredients list-nya menarik karena minimal dan mengandung beetroot extract (sebuah antioksidan). Sedikit lengket namun dapat menyerap ke dalam kulit dengan cepat, sehingga rasa lengketnya akan hilang setelah serumnya menyerap dengan baik. Aku suka sekali produk ini dan aku merekomendasikannya.

Pros:
+ banyak membantu dalam kemerahan, mencerahkan, dan menenangkan jerawat
+ menyerap dengan cepat ke dalam kulit
+ minimal ingredients
+ produk lokal
+ terjangkau

Cons:
- packagingnya kurang menarik untukku (sorry)

Overall rating: 5/5!

Where to buy: Shopee**, Tokopedia**, Lazada**

Sekali lagi, aku ingin berterima kasih kepada Female Daily untuk hadiahnya! Anyway, apakah kalian pernah coba serum-serum ini? Apa kalian merasakan hal yang sama denganku? Komen di bawah, ya!

There are so many forms of skincare, starts from cleanser, facial wash, toner, essence, serum, ampoule, moisturiser, sunscreen, etc. Out of any kind of skincare, I enjoy using serum the most, maybe because I think the serum is the most potent skincare (which is not true, the ampoule is more potent, lol). So, I feel so lucky when I received Somethinc serums for free after winning a giveaway from Female Daily! I got two Somethinc serums, those are Somethinc HYALuronic B5, which is a hyaluronic acid serum, and Somethinc Niacinamide + Moisture Beet Serum, which is a niacinamide serum.

It took me a long time to review these serums because I still had other serum. After more than a month since I received it, I’m finally going to review them!


Somethinc HYALuronic B5
Price: IDR115,500
Packaging: it’s a blue frosted bottle, at first I thought it was the serum that’s blue lol. The size is small and not heavy.
Scent: no scent.
Texture: not thick nor very thin, it’s runny and a little bit sticky, but easy to spread and absorbs quickly.

Source: Skin Carisma
Ingredients:
Water, Allantoin, Disodium EDTA, Butylene Glycol, Glycerin, Hydroxyethylcellulose, Hyaluronic Acid, Panthenol, Phenoxyethanol, Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Seed Extract, Glutathione, Fragrance

Great Ingredient — Comedogenic / Fungal Acne Trigger — Be Aware
Claims:
Promotes a maximum moisture ~ yes
Helps soften & brighten dull skin ~ yes and idk
Make the skin looks more supple and healthy ~ yes
Result:
This serum works well on me to add more hydration and prevent skin dehydration. I feel my skin is a little bit smoother when I use this serum, maybe because my skin becomes more well hydrated. I didn’t have any expectation, so I’m not disappointed in any way. The claims are mostly true, except the statement that this product can brighten dull skin, at least on my skin. That claim might be seen better on someone who’s dealing with dullness from dehydrated skin, I guess. I’m impressed with the ingredients because it’s minimal and most of them are great ingredients. Overall, I think it’s a great extra hydration serum, but it doesn’t do more than that.


Pros:
+ works well on me to add extra hydration
+ soften the skin
+ absorbs quickly into the skin
+ minimal ingredients
+ local product
+ affordable

Cons:
- the packaging isn’t too attractive for me (sorry)

Overall rating: 4.5/5


Somethinc Niacinamide + Moisture Beet Serum
Price: IDR115,500
Packaging: it’s a white frosted bottle. The size is small and not heavy.
Scent: no scent.
Texture: a little bit viscous and sticky, a little bit stickier than the HYALuronic B5, but just as easy to spread and absorbs quickly.

Source: Skin Carisma
Ingredients:
Water, Allantoin, EDTA, Niacinamide, Hydroxyethylcellulose, Glycerin, Butylene Glycol, Fructooligosaccharides, Beta Vulgaris (Beet) Root Extract, Phenoxyethanol, Fragrance

Great Ingredient — Comedogenic / Fungal Acne Trigger — Be Aware
Claims:
Help to brighten ~ yes
Improve your skin texture ~ yes
Strengthen skin barrier ~ yes
Disguise dark spots & hyperpigmentation on the skin ~ maybe
Moisturize ~ yes
Restores suppleness ~ no
Reduces redness ~ yes!
Acne-fighting ~ yes
Minimizes the appearance of dry/damaged skin ~ maybe
Result:
I was quite surprised when I see so many claims for this product. Fortunately, the claims are mostly true (at least on my skin), I just can’t see that this serum helps to restore suppleness. This serum helps the most on my redness (yes!), brightens, and it also helps my acne to calm faster. I think the ingredients list is interesting because it’s minimal and contains beetroot extract (an antioxidant). It’s a little bit sticky but able to absorb into the skin quickly, so the stickiness will be gone right after it’s fully absorbed. I love this product and I recommend it.


Pros:
+ helps a lot on redness, brightening, and calming the acne
+ absorbs quickly into the skin
+ minimal ingredients
+ local product
+ affordable

Cons:
- the packaging isn’t too attractive for me (sorry)

Overall rating: 5/5!

Where to buy: Shopee**, Tokopedia**, Lazada**

Once again, I wanna thank Female Daily for the prizes! Anyway, does any of you have ever tried these serums? Do you feel the same as I do? Comment below!

Katanya lipstik adalah sahabat para perempuan, dan aku setuju banget. Kalau aku lagi buru-buru dan nggak punya banyak waktu untuk makeup-an, aku bakal ngisi alis sedikit, pakai concealer di bawah mata dan di spot-spot hiperpigmentasi yang bandel, dan pakai lipstik favoritku. Bagaimana dengan kalian? Berani taruhan pasti lipstik juga ada di list makeup buru-buru kalian ;)

Ketika aku melakukan proses kurasi untuk menemukan lipstik (dan lip cream) favoritku yang saat ini aku punya, aku cukup terkejut karena cuma ada satu lipstik yang bener-bener aku cinta, yang berarti aku bahkan bisa pakai lipstik itu single-use (aku nggak perlu ombré atau campur dengan warna lain). Ada dua lipstik lain yang sebenernya juga bisa aku single-use, tapi aku lebih memilih untuk campur warnanya atau pakai dengan cara di-ombré, dan dua lipstik lain yang aku pakai hanya untuk di-ombré. Seperti yang bisa dilihat di judulnya, aku ini #teamNude jadi yang aku pilih kebanyakan lipstik berwarna nude. Aku suka warna nude yang lebih peachy atau brownish ketimbang yang pinkish. Dulu, sih, aku sukanya warna mauve untuk lipstik, tapi aku rasa aku sudah nggak begitu suka lagi. Aku suka bullet lipstick maupun liquid lipstick, yang lebih penting untukku adalah formula dan finish-nya. Aku lebih suka finish yang suede matte, dan aku kurang suka finish lipstik yang glossy (lip gloss nggak kehitung, ya! Aku cukup suka sih kalau lip gloss).

The Bath Box Shake Lip Pigment - Cara
Price: IDR110,000 (ini adalah harga barunya, aku lupa harga lamanya sama dengan yang ini atau nggak)
Packaging: tube-nya berbentuk persegi, mirip tube liquid lipstick-nya Jouer.
Colour: peachy apricot muda ketika pertama diaplikasikan, berubah menjadi peachy light-medium brown nude ketika sudah kering.
Texture & finish: sangat cair, ringan, dan pekat. Finish-nya matte.
Claims: -
Result:
Aku mau minta maaf banget karena ada beberapa informasi yang nggak bisa aku dapetin, seperti harga dan klaimnya. Shade ini sebenarnya sudah di-discontinue alias sudah nggak diproduksi lagi, dan rasanya sih harga untuk shade-shade terbaru mereka dan yang lama itu berbeda. Aku juga nggak bisa menemukan klaim untuk produk lama mereka ini, dan aku nggak bisa, kan, asal taruh klaim untuk produk baru mereka karena bisa aja berbeda. Anyway, aku suka lip pigment ini karena warnanya. Shade ini merupakan warna nude yang sempurna untukku; nggak terlalu pucat maupun terlalu gelap. Cukup tahan lama, pakai sedikit aja udah bisa nutup, sedikit berpotensi bikin kering tapi nggak masalah sih untukku. Packaging-nya keliatan elegan menurutku. Wand-nya doe-foot applicator seperti biasa dan aku nggak ada masalah dengan hal itu. Ini adalah satu-satunya lipstik yang bisa aku single-use (dari koleksiku saat ini). Kalau kamu tertarik dengan warna ini, The Bath Box pernah kasih tau aku kalau shade baru mereka yang namanya ‘Kym’ itu warnanya sama aja dengan shade ‘Cara’ ini.

Pros:
+ warna peachy light-medium brown nude yang sempurna
+ ringan
+ warnanya pekat, tahan lama, pakai sedikit saja sudah nutup/cukup
+ produk lokal
+ packaging yang elegan

Cons:
- sedikit berpotensi bikin kering

Overall rating: 5/5

Wardah Velvet Matte Lip Mousse - 08 Brown Creator
Price: IDR 56,000 (harga berbeda-beda)
Packaging: packaging-nya cantik, botol matte satu warna yang seharusnya sama dengan warna di dalamnya. Mirip kayak lip tint Korea seperti 3CE, Innisfree, dll.
Colour: shade ini mungkin yang paling aman karena warnanya nggak begitu jauh berbeda dari swatch-nya dengan aslinya. Di swatch terlihat lebih orange dan warm, tapi warna aslinya itu warna coklat medium, keliatan sangat mirip dengan BLP Maple Waffle (seandainya aja aku masih punya lip cream itu untuk aku buatin perbandingan samping-sampingannya).
Texture & finish: teksturnya mousse, creamy banget dan ringan. Finish-nya matte, bisa jadi sedikit kering seiring berjalannya hari tapi nggak sekering shade 01 Brown Dreamer. Transfer-proof kalau sudah nge-set sepenuhnya.
Claims:
Nyaman ~ yes
Tahan lama ~ yes, asal nggak makan besar
Matte finish yang nyaman (tidak lengket & kering atau memberi tampilan bibir pecah-pecah) ~ yes
Lembut, ringan, dan lembab di bibir ~ yes and no
Result:
Meskipun warna ini nggak begitu berbeda antara swatch dan aslinya, aku rasa kamu tetap harus riset dan jangan berharap terlalu tinggi kalau warnanya bakal cocok dengan preferensi atau ekspektasimu (kecuali kalau kamu swatch/coba sendiri). Perbandingan terdekat yang bisa aku kasih adalah shade ini warnanya mirip dengan BLP Maple Waffle, meskipun aku nggak 100% yakin juga sih, hehe. Shade ini nggak sekering, se-patchy, dan sedikit lebih halus dari shade 01 Brown Creator.

Pros:
+ tekstur mousse yang ringan
+ warna coklat medium yang cocok dengan hampir semua skin tone
+ transfer-proof dan tahan lama
+ produk lokal
+ packagingnya lucu
+ terjangkau

Cons:
- warna aslinya berbeda dengan warna official swatch

Overall rating: 4.5/5

Wardah Velvet Matte Lip Mousse - 05 Artisan Mauve
Price: IDR 56,000 (harga berbeda-beda)
Packaging: packaging-nya cantik, botol matte satu warna yang seharusnya sama dengan warna di dalamnya. Mirip kayak lip tint Korea seperti 3CE, Innisfree, dll.
Colour: sama seperti shade 01 Brown Dreamer, shade ini juga berbeda dari official swatch-nya (lip swatches dari Lippielust itu foto official swatch dari line ini ya). Di lip swatch, shade ini keliatannya cantik banget, warna medium pink yang warm dengan sentuhan sedikit red dan mauve, tapi yang sesungguhnya kita dapatkan itu warna pinkish-mauve. Kurang warmness dan nggak se-medium dari yang aku lihat di foto lip swatch-nya Lippielust. Berubah jadi sedikit lebih gelap setelah sepenuhnya nge-set.
Texture & finish: teksturnya mousse, creamy banget dan ringan. Finish-nya matte, bisa jadi sedikit kering seiring berjalannya hari tapi nggak sekering shade 01 Brown Dreamer. Transfer-proof kalau sudah nge-set sepenuhnya.
Claims:
Nyaman ~ yes
Tahan lama ~ yes, asal nggak makan besar
Matte finish yang nyaman (tidak lengket & kering atau memberi tampilan bibir pecah-pecah) ~ yes
Lembut, ringan, dan lembab di bibir ~ yes and no
Result:
Sama seperti shade 01 Brown Dreamer, warna asli dan warna yang ada di foto swatch-nya beda banget. Untungnya, shade ini masih keliatan bagus di aku meskipun aku pakainya single-use (alias aku nggak campur sama warna lain), tapi keliatan paling bagus sebagai warna bibir ombré terutama dengan shade 08 Brown Creator. Surprisingly, shade ini (dan shade 08 Brown Creator) enggak sekering, se-patchy, dan sedikit lebih halus dari shade 01 Brown Dreamer. Awalnya aku pikir itu cuma karena aku nggak suka warnanya si 01 Brown Dreamer, tapi setelah coba lagi beberapa kali, aku tau kalau formula ini memang sedikit lebih baik. Aku rasa kalau kamu mau beli lip mousse ini, kamu harus cobain sendiri di counter-nya atau cari dan lihat review sebanyak mungkin!

Pros:
+ tekstur mousse yang ringan
+ transfer-proof dan tahan lama
+ produk lokal
+ packagingnya lucu
+ terjangkau

Cons:
- warna aslinya berbeda dengan warna official swatch

Overall rating: 3.5/5, tapi kalau ditanya berdasarkan formulanya aja, maka aku kasih 4.5/5

Maybelline The Powder Matte - Toasted Brown
Price: IDR55,000
Packaging: bullet lipstick, tutupnya berbentuk persegi.
Colour: medium orangey-brown.
Texture & finish: ringan dan creamy, finish-nya creamy-powdery matte.
Claims:
Sangat ringan ~ yes
Warna lebih intens ~ yes
Result:
Aku suka formula lipstik ini karena terasa ringan banget, nggak bikin kering sama sekali, tapi finish-nya matte. Shade ini kesukaan banyak orang, tapi nggak untukku. Maksudnya, aku suka warna ini karena keliatan bagus di aku kalau dipakai sendiri dan seluruh bibir, tapi aku lebih suka warna lipstik yang lebih nude sih untuk itu. Untukku, warna ini bagus banget sebagai warna ombré. Lipstik ini masuk ke list lipstik favoritku karena ini formula yang nggak bakal salah, dan bentuknya bullet lipstick jadi mudah digunakan untuk touch-up, juga warnanya yah nggak buruk terutama sebagai warna ombré. Kalau aku sudah habisin lipstik ini, aku pastinya bakal coba shade lain dari line ini.

Pros:
+ formula yang ringan dan nyaman
+ warna yang sangat pekat
+ bagus sebagai warna ombré
+ terjangkau

Cons:
- aku nggak begitu suka pakai warna ini untuk seluruh bibir

Overall rating: 4/5

NYX Suede Matte Lipstick - Rosé the Day
Price: IDR130,000
Packaging: bullet lipstick.
Colour: light brownish-cream nude.
Texture & finish: lembut dan creamy banget, finish-nya creamy matte.
Claims:
Velvety-plush matte ~ yes
Smooth matte coverage yang tahan berjam-jam dan tidak terasa kering ~ yes
Result:
Lipstik ini bahkan lebih creamy daripada lipstiknya Maybelline yang the Powder Matte. Bahkan, lipstikku ini patah ketika sedang dikirim ke aku melalui ekspedisi dan itu mungkin karena lipstik ini sangat creamy dan lembut. Aku pilih warna ini karena keliatannya seperti warna medium brown nude di fotonya, tapi ternyata warnanya itu light brownish-cream nude dan aku jadi kelihatan pucat banget kalau pakai ini sendiri. Setelah mencoba berkali-kali, aku memiliki kesimpulan kalau warna ini sempurna banget sebagai warna dasar untuk ombré lips, tapi lipstik ini lebih baik digunakan di tahap terakhir karena entah kenapa lipstik ini keliatan aneh kalau ditumpuk atau berada di bawah lipstik lain (mungkin karena formulanya yang terlalu creamy). Meskipun formulanya sedikit bikin bingung, tapi tetap aja lipstik ini nyaman banget digunakan. Walaupun warnanya bikin aku jadi terlihat pucat, tapi bisa digunakan sebagai warna dasar untuk ombré lips dan warnanya cantik banget!

Pros:
+ formula yang sangat nyaman
+ warna yang sempurna sebagai warna dasar untuk ombré lips

Cons:
- warna ini terlalu terang di warna kulitku
- sedikit tricky untuk di-layer dengan lipstik lain

Overall rating: 4/5



Apa lipstik favorit kalian? Apakah kalian ada di #teamNude kayak aku atau nggak? Tinggalin jawaban kalian di bawah!

They say lipsticks are women’s best friend, and I can’t agree more. If I’m in rush and have very little time to do my makeup, I will fill my eyebrows a little bit, pat some concealer under my eye and on the most annoying hyperpigmentation spots, and use my favourite lipstick. What about you? I bet lipstick is also in your list ;)

When I was curating my favourite lipsticks (and lip creams) that I currently have, I’m pretty shocked that I only have one lipstick that I really love, means that I can even single-use that lipstick (I don’t have to ombré nor I have to mix it with other colour). There are two other lipsticks that I also can single-use, but I prefer to mix or ombré it, and another two lipsticks that I use only for ombré. As you can see in the title, I’m in #teamNude so I picked mostly nude coloured lipsticks. I like peachy or brownish nude colour instead of the pinkish one. I used to love mauve for my lipsticks, but I think I’m not much into that colour anymore. I like both bullet lipsticks and liquid lipsticks, what matters more to me is the formula and the finish. I prefer the soft, suede matte finish, and I don’t really like shiny or glossy finish lipsticks (lip gloss isn’t counted! I kinda like lip gloss).

The Bath Box Shake Lip Pigment - Cara
Price: IDR110,000 (this is the new price, I can’t remember if the old price was different or no)
Packaging: square-shaped tube, looks similar to Jouer’s liquid lipstick tube.
Colour: light peachy apricot when first applied, dries down to peachy light-medium brown nude.
Texture & finish: very watery, lightweight, and opaque. The finish is matte.
Claims: -
Result:
I’m so sorry if there is some information that I can’t provide, such as the price and the claims. This shade is already discontinued, and I think the price of their new shades and the previous ones is different. I also can’t find their claims for the old products, and I can’t just put their claims for their newer shades because it might be different, right? Anyway, I love this lip pigment because of the colour. This shade is the perfect nude for me; not too pale nor too deep. It lasts pretty long, a little goes a long way, can be a little bit drying but it doesn’t matter. The packaging looks elegant in my opinion. The wand is the regular doe-foot applicator and I don’t have any problem with that. This is the only lipstick that I can single-use (out of my current collection). If you are interested to get this colour, The Bath Box told me that their new shade ‘Kym’ is basically the same colour like this one.

Pros:
+ perfect peachy light-medium brown nude colour
+ lightweight
+ opaque, long-lasting, a little goes a long way
+ local product
+ elegant packaging

Cons:
- can be a little bit drying

Overall rating: 5/5

Wardah Velvet Matte Lip Mousse - 08 Brown Creator
Price: IDR 56,000 (prices may vary)
Packaging: beautiful packaging, it is a one-coloured matte bottle that supposed to be the same as the colour inside. It looks similar to Korean lip tints like 3CE, Innisfree, etc.
Colour: this shade maybe is the safest because the colour isn’t that different from the swatch and the actual one. The swatch looks more orange and warm, but the actual colour is a medium brown colour, looks very similar to BLP Maple Waffle (I wish I still have that lip cream to compare it side by side).
Texture & finish: mousse texture, very creamy and lightweight. The finish is matte, can be a little bit drying throughout the day but not as drying as the shade 01 Brown Dreamer. It is transfer-proof after fully set.
Claims:
Comfortable ~ yes
Longlasting ~ yes, as long as you’re not having a big meal
Comfort matte finish (not sticky & dry or gives chapped lips look) ~ yes
Smooth, lightweight, and moist on the lips ~ yes and no
Result:
Even though this colour isn’t too different between the swatch and the actual colour, I think you still have to do your research and don’t expect too much that this colour will match your preference (unless you swatch/try it yourself). The closest comparison that I can give is it looks similar to BLP Maple Waffle, although I can’t guarantee it, hehe. This shade is a little bit less drying, less patchy, and a little bit smoother than the shade 01 Brown Creator.

Pros:
+ lightweight mousse texture
+ a medium brown colour that suits almost every skin tone
+ transfer-proof and long-lasting
+ local product
+ cute packaging
+ affordable

Cons:
- the actual colour is slightly different than the official swatch colour

Overall rating: 4.5/5

Wardah Velvet Matte Lip Mousse - 05 Artisan Mauve
Price: IDR 56,000 (prices may vary)
Packaging: beautiful packaging, it is a one-coloured matte bottle that supposed to be the same as the colour inside. It looks similar to Korean lip tints like 3CE, Innisfree, etc.
Colour: just like the shade 01 Brown Dreamer, this shade also looks different from the official swatch (Lippielust’s lip swatches are the official swatch picture of this line). The lip swatch looks like a beautiful warm medium pink colour with a hint of red and mauve, but what we actually get is a pinkish-mauve colour. It lacks the warmness and not as medium as what I see on Lippielust’s lip swatch picture. It turns a little bit darker after fully set.
Texture & finish: mousse texture, very creamy and lightweight. The finish is matte, can be a little bit drying throughout the day but not as drying as the shade 01 Brown Dreamer. It is transfer-proof after fully set.
Claims:
Comfortable ~ yes
Longlasting ~ yes, as long as you’re not having a big meal
Comfort matte finish (not sticky & dry or gives chapped lips look) ~ yes
Smooth, lightweight, and moist on the lips ~ yes and no
Result:
Just like the shade 01 Brown Dreamer, the actual colour and the colour on the swatch picture are very different. Fortunately, this shade still looks good on me even if I single-use it (a.k.a I don’t mix it with other colour), but it looks the best as an ombré lip colour especially with the shade 08 Brown Creator. Surprisingly, this shade (and the shade 08 Brown Creator) is a little bit less drying, isn’t as patchy, and a little bit smoother than the shade 01 Brown Dreamer. At first, I thought it was just because I don’t like the colour of the shade 01 Brown Dreamer, but after trying it out a few more time, I know this formula is slightly better. I think if you want to buy this lip mousse, you have to try it out yourself at their counter or see as many reviews as possible!

Pros:
+ lightweight mousse texture
+ transfer-proof and long-lasting
+ local product
+ cute packaging
+ affordable

Cons:
- the actual colour is different than the official swatch colour

Overall rating: 3.5/5, but if you ask me to just judge the formula, then it is 4.5/5

Maybelline The Powder Matte - Toasted Brown
Price: IDR55,000
Packaging: bullet lipstick, square-shaped cap.
Colour: medium orangey-brown.
Texture & finish: lightweight and creamy, the finish is creamy-powdery matte.
Claims:
Ultra-lightweight ~ yes
More intense colour ~ yes
Result:
I love the formula of this lipstick because it feels very lightweight, not drying at all, but has a matte finish. This shade is a cult-favourite, but not mine. I mean, I like this colour because it looks good on me single-used and full-lips, but I prefer lipsticks with more nude colour for that. For me, this colour is very great as an ombré lip colour, though. It goes to the list of my favourite lipsticks because you can’t go wrong with this formula, it’s a bullet lipstick so very easy to use as a touch-up lipstick, and the colour is not bad anyway especially as an ombré lip colour. If I already finish this lipstick, I surely will try another shade from this line.

Pros:
+ lightweight and comfortable formula
+ a very opaque colour
+ great as an ombré lip colour
+ affordable

Cons:
- I don’t really like use this colour for full-lips

Overall rating: 4/5

NYX Suede Matte Lipstick - Rosé the Day
Price: IDR130,000
Packaging: bullet lipstick.
Colour: light brownish-cream nude.
Texture & finish: very soft and creamy, the finish is creamy matte.
Claims:
Velvety-plush matte ~ yes
Hours of smooth matte coverage that never feels dry ~ yes
Result:
This lipstick is creamier than the Maybelline’s the Powder Matte lipstick. In fact, my lipstick was broken when it was on the way with the expedition to be delivered to me and it’s probably because the lipstick is very creamy and delicate. I picked this colour because it looks like a medium brown nude colour on picture, but turned out to be a light brownish-cream nude and looks really pale on me if single-used. After tons of trials, I know that this colour is perfect as a base for an ombré lips, but it’s better when this lipstick is used at the very last step because somehow this lipstick looks weird under other lipstick (probably because the formula is too creamy). Even though the formula can be tricky, it’s still a very comfortable lipstick. Although the colour makes me look pale, it’s a very beautiful neutral nude colour as a base for ombré lips look!

Pros:
+ very comfortable formula
+ perfect shade as a base for ombré lips colour

Cons:
- the shade is too light on my skin tone
- a little bit tricky to be layered with other lipstick(s)

Overall rating: 4/5

Hi, welcome to Asteria Beauty! I'm a 24 years old Indonesian beauty enthusiast. I post a lot about beauty here. I have a combination - oily skin, sometimes my skin gets dehydrated, and I'm dealing with acne scars, PIH, and large pores. My skin tone is medium, and I'm still unsure about my undertone (between warm/neutral/olive). I hope you find my blog useful!
