Have you girls heard about the much raved lip product called the Me Now Generation II Long Lasting Lip Gloss?
I just did.
LOL!
But don't ask me where has the Generation I gone to cos I really do not know hahahaha. I only got to know about this lip glosses through my BTB friends who posted their lip swatches on their IGs and I was intrigued as they captioned these products as cheap and long lasting. Lip glosses being long lasting is a plus la (cos somehow I could not get through even half a day without eating the lip gloss on my lips) but I just want to find out just how cheap are they really.
After furiously googling and youtubing and researching and reading reviews about these lip glosses, I learned that they are coined the Ebay Lip glosses and they cost a dollar each! As in USD 1 dollar! Cheap or what! I think my friends got them from local resellers on Carousell/Instashops and it costs them about S$3-4 a piece. I did my own calculation via the online conversion and it roughly costs about S$1.33 a piece. Maybe the S$3-4 that they are paying are inclusive of shipping and mailing la.
Anyways, there are 38 shades in total for these lip glosses.
(Not my image and the owner did not swatch the 2 latest shades)
As you can tell by the swatches, these lip glosses dry matte and in my opinion, they should not be called lip glosses as they are not glossy. They should be called lip stains or liquid lipsticks instead. They are really just lipsticks in liquid form.
And you know what, I got little crazy after learning about them being so cheap that I decided to buy the whole collection. But I did not purchase them locally. I know that I am a very patient person so I purchased them online via Aliexpress where I told the seller that I would like to buy the whole collection and I only paid USD38 in total! That's USD1 a piece!
WHAT A BARGAIN!
Shipping is free according to the seller and I waited patiently for 2 weeks for these babies.
Arranged in sequence except for the first picture. I went a bit overboard eh but hey, 1dollar a piece mana mau dapat seh! And my situation calls for a Matchbox 20 song;
But I'm not crazy, I'm just a little unwell...
LOL!
