Hi there loves! I have a vault!!!! Not a vault full of money or jewelries... i got a vault of lipsticks. LOL Ever since this vault came out, I was thinking whether to get one or I'll pass. This lipstick is actually the very first lipstick I ever purchased 2 years ago... I can still remember the 2 shades I got, Antwerp and San Paulo.... I guess by now you already know what I am talking about... well for those who have no idea, it's the Nyx Cosmetics Soft Matte Lip Cream Vault.
Tadaaaaaaaaaaa......
Price ranges from PHP 3900- 4600.
Got mine for PHP 4200
This baby has 36 mini lippies in it and it includes 2 exclusive colors: Bangkok and Los Angeles. Yes, I know I only have 1 lips, actually, someone asked me if how am i going to use all those lippies. Well, I'll admit that I might not be able to use them all but i would definitely keep them all. :)
Here's a comparison of a regular sized soft matte lipstick and the mini sized one:
The regular sized one has 0.27 fl. oz. or 8ml while the mini has 0.15 fl. oz/4.7 ml.
If you have tried SMLC already, there is no difference with the formulas between the regular one and the ones included in the set. This lipstick are mousse like and smells like vanilla. The shelf life is 18 months upon opening. SMLC is not a long wearing type of lipstick so you have to reapply. It does transfer because it does not dry complete. Some shades leave stain on your lips.
Verdict:
Well, this is the very first lipstick I've tried, got them for Php 250 about 2 years ago, now this costs PHP 280-320 online and Php 360-380 in malls, I think the performance of this lipstick is just right for its price. I actually love it because it does not make my lips dry and its very lightweight.
The Vault..... If you love to collect and a make up lover like me, I suggest you go purchase one, It can make your heart really happy. Lol You can also buy one vault, choose and keep the shades you like, and sell the shades you dont like. ;)
I have swatched the first row of the vault, the first 12...
Here are the swatches :)
Ill update this blog and upload all the remaining shades next week. ( Yes all 24 remaining shades lol)
(PLEASE DON'T JUDGE THE FOUNDATION I USED HERE, LOL I REALLY USE FOUNDATIONS THAT ARE 1 SHADE LIGHTER THAN MY SKINTONE BECAUSE I AM ACIDIC. THEY WILL MATCH MY NATURAL SKIN COLOR AFTER AN HOUR ;) )
Thanks for dropping by! ❤
