Laneige Two Tone Lip Bar

The shopping doesn't ever end... I had to try the Laneige Two Tone Lip Bar. I first heard about it when my colleague was raving about it. She had seen an advertisement and was going on about wanting to buy it. How could I not try it right?!

As part of my Laneige mini binge shopping spree, I went ahead to Sephora online and picked up the Laneige Two Tone Lip Bar in Maxi Red. There were 4 gorgeous colours to choose from and it was not an easy choice to make. I was torn between Maxi Red and Magenta Muse. All colours except Orange Blurring suited my yellow toned skin so this decision took forever to make. 

The 4 colours are:

No.1 Magenta Muse

No.5 Daring Darling

No.12 Maxi Red

No.13 Orange Blurring

First things first, I had to figure out how to work a lipstick the was not that same shape as the lipsticks that I'm used to. Once I began to apply it, I realised that the rectangle shape of the Laneige Two Tone Lip Bar made it really easy to get the clean lip lines, especially the bow of the lip. Love!

There are two colours in the Laneige Two Tone Lip Bar but I feel it's more, coz you can mix the colours depending on the tone you're feeling on that day. Maxi Red is made up of a bright deep red and is paired with peachy orange. You can wear it only red or only peach but where's the fun in that?! So I mixed it till I was satisfied and I got this really interesting red. Under certain lights it looks like chilli red, under the sun it looks reddish orange... and in yellow light it looks like a deep pink. I need to explore more ways to wear this colour. But I know the K-craze now is to wear it a deeper shade in the middle and a lighter shade on the outside, so I did that, looks nice in the photo.

The texture is nice too, it isn't too creamy where you feel your lips are bleeding. I lightly blotted my lips just out of habit... and it felt almost like I wasn't wearing any lipstick at all, so it was comfortable. I didn't have that greasy feeling nor did I have to keep checking if it was in place. It felt light and the colour was opaque and vibrant.
