Colourette X The Kings

  I am not that updated when it comes to make-up. I just buy one when the one I'm using is almost gone, or the brand that I patronize is not available locally anymore like what happened to Laneige (that's why I switched to Face Shop). This month I came to know Colourette cosmetics. This is a proudly Filipino brand founded by Ms. Nina Dizon. I came to know this make-up brand when I saw the online ad of the amazing couple Angie Mead King (formerly known as Ian King of the Victoria Court Hotel), she is also a racer, car enthusiast, and her wife Joey Mead King, vj and model.

Their collaboration with Colourette, birthed the Colourette x The Kings. The packaging of the make-up as you can see from the photo is black and gold themed case, with a lightning logo. They have come up last June with the dualitints (2 shades liquid lippies in one, plus you can also use it as a blush). It comes in 4 variants numbered as Dualitints #1 up to #4. I have purchased number 4 (metallic). The lip tints names are also catchy, "The Morning After, and Happy Hour." I wanted the other shades (#1 and #3) but they are out of stock already. Colourette online replied to my query that they will not be producing anymore since its a limited edition. The 2 in 1 Dualitints is comparable to the personalities of Angie and Joey. Two different shades but nevertheless they complement one another. Priced at around P499. Not bad! You get 2 lippies for the price of one! I also bought the Face Gloss Ultra Fine Pressed Highlighter, priced at around P1,299. The face gloss comes in 2 shades the lighter one is called Aura (for those with mestiza or lighter skin tone), and the darker one (for morenas or dark skinned) is called Lightning Speed. It comes with a free soft brush. I also received funky cute stickers that says Boss Babe.

I have heard a lot of good reviews online. I don't often patronize locally made cosmetics believing they cannot be at par with foreign brand. But in Colourette cosmetics case. I definitely like their products. I swatched the # 4 Dualitint (the smell is similar to strawberry, I liked the formulation also because the Dualitint contains shea butter and argan oil, while the face gloss contains Vitamin E, Jojoba oil, and Yeast Beer extracy that are known to have nourishing effects on the skin) and have tried Lightning Speed face gloss, and I'm happy with it! Mainly, I bought these make-up because I'm a fan of The Kings. I can say I am impressed with the quality and variety o Colourette cosmetics.

If you are interested in purchasing the dualitint, and face gloss. Limited dualitints and face gloss are available at Lazada and BeautyMNL online. Quality and reasonably priced cosmetics are now within your reach!
