Barry M Lip Stick & Gloss

Remember my Sleek & Barry M Haul? Well now I feel like I tried out the Barry M lip products enough to write a quick review! I bought the Barry M Lip Paint Nr. 101 Marshmallow and the Lipgloss Nr.12 Strawberry Milkshake, both about 5 €!

The packaging is precious in my eyes, I love pastel pink and black! Now the Lip Stick is very light but not only nude but also light pink at the same time, which kinda surprised me because I expected it more nude-beige!

The colors actually look alike in my eyes, it’s as if the lip gloss is just the same color in gloss form. As you can see both are very pale shades and as I expected they are very difficult with my lips. I don’t even have a good pic of me wearing those solo because it didn’t work at all, the lip stick just looks like white-pink flakes on my lips, just as the gloss, only that the gloss is more watery… So they are just sitting around in flakes on my lips because it is honestly impossible to apply it for me evenly. Maybe because the shade is so light, maybe even the texture, but I felt kinda disappointed. In the end I just combined both, first applying the gloss and then the lip stick over it. That’s the result:

Well it looks nice on the pic in my opinion, my problem is, it doesn’t stay this way. The moment I do ANYTHING like speaking, eating, drinking, it’s gone, no wait, it’s smeared in pink flakes all over my lips. Too bad, both looked promising but I won’t buy it again!

Sleek & Barry M Haul

I already reviewed the Sleek Make Up Blush here! But I also bought other Sleek and Barry M products on shades of pink online!

I have a Sleek New Skin Revive Tester Kit in light shades, 4 €

Barry M - Lip Paint Nr. 101 Marshmallow, about 5 €

Barry M Lipgloss - Nr.12 Strawberry Milkshake, about 5 €

Barry M Mascara in Electric Purple, 5 €

The Sleek Make Up Blush in Rose Gold, 5 €

Sleek Dip EyeLiner in Pink, 5 €

I haven’t tried everything but I can already say that the mascara is good for nothing, you can’t even see the purple color! I made pictures but it looked black. Very dissapointed about that. 

The tester kit for the Sleek Foundation revealed the following:

So there are altogether 5 light shades: Linen, Oyster, Oatmeal, White Rose and Shell! I already new that Linen would be too light but I wasn’t sure whether Oatmeal or Oyster suited my skin better, so I got the tester kit! The great thing is that the small tubes can be reused, very cute idea. So you don’t have to use everything all up once you opened the tube!

Linen is pale white with a very slight yellow undertone, Oyster is more pink than I expected and Oatmeal pretty much neutral in it’s undertones and therefor fits my skin best. White Rose is too rosy of course and Shell has too many yellow undertones! I have to say I tried all of them on my face and they all have the ability to blend in with my skin tone BUT Linen has a horrible texture in comparison to the other ones. I’m still not sure whether to get the foundation at all because I already have so many and this one is not particularly good at covering….(currently using Diorskin Nude and Shiseido Maquillage!).
