Affordable Lippie: Aido Brand

Hi everyone!!!

I've been away for a while and I just want to say that I MISS YAAAAAH! I miss sharing with you my latest  "kikay" finds and girly thing-y here LOL! How's everyone btw? Hope you're all doing fine!

Here's another affordable Philippine local brand I want to share. Remember my Aido lipstick which I did a short review HERE? 

This is the second lip color that I got from AIDO brand. A wearable red lip color as I would like to describe it best. It comes in a silver tube with clear cap, not much of my liking to be honest. However, the color pay off is decent and buildable. Appears sheer red with beautiful frost. Decent staying power but applying lip balm beforehand is recommended as this can enhance dryness of your lips. Same little problem with my other Aido lippie. Whenever I try to close the cap, I have to be very cautious not to damage the tip of the lip bullet! Hassle if you're a girl on the go. Overall, the performance seems okay. Hope they can change the lipstick names to more interesting ones. Given a chance, I'm interested to pick up other colors like pink and coral shades. The moment I got this, only the mauves and reds were left on the rack, which unfortunately not my cup of tea. Anway, this shade "B" Aido lipstick is considerably a great deal for PHP 50.00 only. You may find Aido lipsticks at SM department stores, I saw mine along with other local beauty brand.








What do you think of this brand or lip product? Have you tried any other shade from them already?
Don't hesitate to comment down below dear! :)
And oh oh! I also recently purchased some Sophie products, which is another Philippine brand for review purpose! I reckon a lot of you are interested on cheap finds and local brands so please also stay tuned for that! :)

Thank you so much for reading! :)

Cheap Find: The 50 Pesos AIDO Magic Lipstick

Hi everyone! :)

Here's another cheap find I wanted to share with you lovelies.
Yes you got that right! It's super affordable with the price tag of just PHP 50.00, more or less 1 USD only!
Some of you who lives in other country aside from Philippines might find this somewhat similar with ELF cosmetics. However, ELF products that only cost a dollar in US is equivalent to almost 3 USD here in Philippines when converted. Hike of price probably might be due to shipping, tax and etc.

I was actually looking for an affordable lipstick that I can use for a makeup challenge at SM department store beauty section. Hey I just really need to mention that it's so enticing to see our local beauty brands improve now than the way their packaging looked before. Also they try incorporate new ideas on their products like having local BB cream brands. Anyway to cut the story short, I saw a small rack of lipstick at Fashion21 corner. I was intrigued on how would the lipstick appear when applied on lips. Of course I already had an idea then that they were "magic lipsticks".

They come in blue, orange, white and pink lipstick bullets and are enclosed in transparent tubes.
I picked up the pink one. For some reasons I didn't bother to see the "magic" on other colors. The SA swatched the lippie at the back of her hand. With one swatch, it appears to be light in color then after few more swatching, it turns into a darker shade of pink, a tad lighter than hot pink. I can compare the color to Avon's simply pretty magic lipstick in snow white, the one that comes in light purple tube and white lippie bullet if you're not familiar with the name.

The performance seems to be okay. Applies a sheer pink color on lips. Do not expect it to be creamy and opaque. It somewhat works like a lip stain because it actually last longer than my NYX round lipsticks but expect it to be drying. Better to wear a lip balm over this lippie. Or better yet use a lip balm, use this as a lip primer and then apply your favorite creamy lipstick. I only had problem with their packaging. Whenever I close the cap, I can damage the lippie! *Please see photos below*

This is what it already looks like when fully retracted. See the tip part of the bullet?
Yeah, as of now that is already damaged. Aw!



Have you tried this lippie already?
I bought two Aido PHP 50.00 lippie, I'll do a review on the next one later on.
Please stay tuned for that!
