Wow! I'm stunned by my laziness that my last blog post was dated 5th of December! 6 months hiatus for the win! How's that? I wonder what my excuses are..
Checking my drafts I got more or less 30 unpublished and unfinished articles.
I think I should update my blog as often as I can this time. I have even totally forgotten I have one.
I lost my interest in everything for two years, and hell I think I'm back. Sort of.
Anyways starting my FIRST (omg) blogpost for this year!!! I got my hands on Koko Kollection Liquid Lipstick by Kylie Cosmetics.
But first, my Koko x KUKTW Story
I still remember those times I used to spend time watching the whole season of Keeping up with the Kardashians and how I wish I could still get those idle time from the past. Watching them while having a sleep over and binge eating at midnight with my cousins during our younger days was one of those moments I wish I could relive again. As soon as we got busy with our lives (Me and Nikki got married, and she flew to Nevada while Shane and Kim are now working) we couldn't keep up with the Kardashians anymore. Sometimes we try to talk about how they changed and how bizaare it is that Bruce is now Caitlyn, and how we're still stuck with Khloe-Lamar love team, the young Kendall and Kylie and just everything that was still in 2012. I only have time to keep up with every cosmetics they release, no wonder why my Kylie Cosmetics Collection is growing.
When it comes to brilliant choice of shade selection, I love how Khloe can pull it off and how she makes some nude shade, peaches and bronzers seem perfect for fair skinned girls. In my case I just cannot pull off perfectly the other Kylie Lip Kits I own. I think I need to get a tan first coz even the shade Candy K is too dark on my lips. I finally got my hands on Koko Kollection and look how gorg the packaging is.
The wonderful glossy box contains 4 liquid lippies: 3 mattes and one gloss. Shades were named Damn Gina, Khlo$, Okurr and of course Gorg.
Just when I thought I will only like Khlo$ (khlo-money) for its wearable peachy brown nude shade on me, Okurr and Gorg stunned me. It looked freaking great! Swatching it at the back of my hand didn't give them much justice. Here's how it looks on me. When I wipe off Damn Gina, it left a lot of glitters that you can still even see white dots on my lips. Since the rest were long wearing mattes, I had to rub it off with my Mac Cleanse off oil and left my lips dry.
Damn Gina is like the usual hue of Khloe's lips when she prefers glossy lippy. Nude, voluminous and sparkly. I've had So cute and Literally gloss and they lasted for a couple of hours just don't eat anything and be careful when sipping any drinks. Just like what I've said there's so much pink and silver glitters that will possibly be left on your lips. It definitely lives up to its claim of leaving a brilliant glossy look. Unfortunately, gone are the days when I was into lip glosses. I don't like it that much.
Khlo$ is the main reason I bought this collection. This peachy brown shade's perfect for my everyday go-to look. I love pairing it with my Urban Decay Naked Heat Palette, Kat Von D Rust Eyeshadow or just a mono eyeshadow look with Makeup Geek eyeshadow in Mocha.
Okurr reminds me of Mac's All Fired Up Lipstick. It's a bright pink-red and I thought I wouldn't pull it off but I ended up loving it. Too bright for daytime and perfect for pairing with just shimmery eyes or sunset hues.
Gorg. I have a love and hate relationship to it. I love that it's a dark red with an equal tone of brownish and purplish. I hate that it takes a long time to build up the color, a bit patchy when applied once. the shade's like a combo of Leo, Vixen and Kourt with a tinge of fuchsia pink as a base tone. |

The formulation of this collection is as smooth and pigmented as my other regular Kylie Lip Kits, and just like the regular ones, they smell like cupcakes, which I still dig. I prefer sweet smelling lippies over unscented or musky, floral or fruity ones. The number of my Kylie Liquid lippies were fast growing, but I love using it more on my clients more than myself. My only staple in my kikay kit is Khlo$.
As promised, I will try to post at least once to 3x a month if possible. :)
