KJM Cosmetics is a local brand here in the Philippines. I didn’t get a lot of information from their website nor their social media sites but I believe they are based here in Davao City, Philippines. (Correct me if I’m wrong. :p)
I got these KJM Cheek and Lip tint a week ago and thought about reviewing these. I only got 3 shades since that’s much more practical (even though I’m still spending money. hehe). I won’t be using all of the shades so it would be a waste of money if I got all of them.
I got Pink Puff, Bloodshot and Bittersweet Magenta. These 3 shades are the ones that spoke to me that’s why I got them. They actually have a lot of shades to choose from. Ranging from the pinks, reds, magenta etc.. You can check each shade with their corresponding swatches on their website.
I was watching a bunch of Korean dramas for the past few weeks and well, got super into the natural look. So I mean, I gotta try them right? :p
Here are the 3 shades I got from the brand:
I’d probably compare these to the lip and cheek tint by Avon.
It’s not as pigmented as these KJM tints but they’re comparable just by looking from their respective packaging.
PROS:
- Affordable
- Can achieve the Korean Natural Makeup Look
- Very Pigmented
- Has a lot of shades to choose from
- Has a sweet taste to it (it does have a bitter after taste though)
- Has a light scent to it
- Shows up when worn as a blush
- Lasts up to 5-6 hours on my lips depending on what I ate on that day
CONS:
- You can’t find it on stalls near you as of now (May 3, 3017). I purchased these online (from the shopee app to be exact) as I can’t find it near me. Correct me if I’m wrong. (You can message them on their facebook page and ask if they’ll do meetups here in Davao City)
- Dries at the center of my lips (ONLY!!!) after a couple of hours wearing it
- Easily fades when I wear it as a blush as I am oily
- You have to blend it using your fingers or a brush depending on your preference as they don’t appear to swatch seamless on both your lips and your hand. You can actually see it on the picture I provided at the top they appear separated.
These pros and cons are what I experienced from the product. If you have any input on their pros and cons feel free to comment it down on the comment section down below. 🙂
If you’ll ask me if this is worth a try? Then I say yes! My favorite is the Bittersweet Magenta as it’s much more pigmented than the other two. 🙂
That’s it for today! Thank you for reading! 🙂
