Red Lips, didn't think I would but I like it

Hi! 
This is just a Look of the Day post, I hope you'll like it!
Ce post est juste un Look du Jour, j'èspère que vous allez aimer!
On my lips I just applied some Aloe Vera transparent Lip balm and then applied the red colour pencil from this post over it.
Sur mes lèvres, jai juste mis du baume à lèvres transparent à l'Aloe vera (de chez Réserve Naturelle) puis j'ai mis le crayon rouge par dessus.
  Here's the pencil on it's own swatched on the left and smudged on the right.
Voici un swatch du crayon tout seul à gauche et estompé à droite.
 Natural light (daylight through the window).
A la lumière du jour (qui entre par la fenêtre).
 With flash, it looks a bit washed out and pink.
Avec le flash ça l'air un peu rose/rose foncé.
A closeup of my eye makeup using the half lashes technique I spoke about in my last blogpost.
I will update this post with the products used asap so keep an eye out for that. Until then, take care.
Voici une photo plus rapprochée de mes yeux, j'ai utilisé la technique des faux cils coupés en deux dont je vous explique tous les détails dans mon post précédent. Prenez soin de vous et à bientôt.

See you! Bye!

"Me Now Generation II" Eye and Lip liner pencils look and review

Hello! 
So today I'm gonna do a product review,as promised earlier, it's about those pencils I got as a gift from an ebay seller with one of my purchases.

This is as usual, my true and honest opinion about the product.

I would say that my overall first impression of the product was slightly bad because there was a kind of "plastic" smell when I opened the pack.

I think it's because of the wrapper used because now it doesn't have any smell whatsoever, which is more than fine by me.

The pigmentation is very good on the skin, you can get a good amount of colour with just one light swipe. It's also very easy to blend and to apply.
On the top is one swipe of the black pencil, on the bottom is a light swipe that I just run my finger over to see if it was easy to smudge.
Did the same with the red one too.

I decided to do a look after swatching them.
















Update:
Swatches of all the colours on my wrist, no primer applied.




 These colours are matte and don't have any shimmer except for the purple one.
 These are the colours that have a bit of shimmer to them.


 The matte liners, swatched on paper.
The shimmer liners, swatched on paper.

All in all I would give it a 8/10 because it's not waterproof, otherwise I really like them.

Thanks for reading and see you soon, 

Until then, Take care, 
Bye!
