Review: Snoe Handy Candy Lip Color
Hello! Another week has ended and I'm sure some of you are going to the mall to unwind this weekend (if the weather cooperates, that is). While you're there, you may want to check out this really cute and kikay item from Snoe! :)
It's my first time to see something like this. What's so special about this keychain? Well, it's not just a keychain...
...it's also a mini lip color palette! It's the Handy Candy Lip Color keychain, yet another one of Snoe's unique products!
Description (from Snoe): Snoe Handy Candy Lip Color. Features a trio of pure candy colored lipstick shades in a convenient travel friendly pot with key chain. Change your lip color wherever and whenever!
First let's talk about the packaging. I like that it's really very handy, and it can fit inside my small makeup kit. Easy to carry around.
Look how small it is.

And you can hang this wherever you want because it has a key ring. It doesn't come with a lip brush, though. So if you're not used to using your fingers to apply your lip color, then I suggest you bring a small lip brush with you.
This mini lipstick palette contains three shades - Bubblegum, Strawberry Shake, Milk Chocolate.

| L-R: Bubblegum, Strawberry Shake, Milk Chocolate |

Bubblegum is like a true pink shade. Strawberry Shake is pinkish red. Milk Chocolate, though it looks so brown in the palette, is more of a red shade with a hint of brown. And, as you can see, these are not entirely matte but not really glossy either.
Here's a picture of me wearing a combination of Strawberry Shake and Milk Chocolate.
These lip colors don't dry my lips but they aren't moisturizing either. I still use lip balm under it. As for the wear, the color stays on for several hours on my lips when I just leave it alone. After eating and drinking, the color fades a bit and leaves a stain but I still like to retouch to keep my lips from looking all blotchy.

| Read my 'Face of the Day' post *here* for the list of products used in this look |
Like:
- Cute packaging
- Travel-friendly, easy to carry in my bag
- Contains three lip shades that, on my lips, do not look similar with each other
- Covers my natural lip color well
- Color stays on my lips for several hours (maybe 4-5), leaves a stain after eating/drinking
- No unpleasant scent - it kinda has a subtle chocolatey scent that's not noticeable when the product's on the lips already
- Doesn't dry my lips
- Affordable - Priced at P159 for three colors
- Available in all Snoe stores and counters, even online - View store locations *here*
Not so like:
- Personal preference: I don't like lip colors in palette form very much. Medyo mas hassle kasi i-apply, kailangan pa ng brush.
- Stains my fingers whenever I use them to apply the color. Nothing my wipes can't handle, though.
- Limited shades - Not for those who aren't into dark-ish shades.
So that's it! If you don't mind lip products that aren't it a stick/tube form, you may want to check this out. It's really affordable. And you may want to read my reviews of other Snoe products *here.* The packaging and the catchy labels of their products will surely catch your eye! :)

ang cute naman nyan!! :) i have a similar lip product like that in keychain form given to me.. i forgot the brand.. :)
ReplyDeleteI remember seeing this one in my lucid intervals blog... The shade I liked is the pink one...
ReplyDeletethe milk chocolate really complements your lips:)
I don't understand why all of the reviews I read show this product to be really pigmented. I applied this ten times on my lips and it still isn't as pigmented as that :| I like the scent, though, and I like how it stays on my lips and gives them a just-bitten look.
ReplyDeletered na red ba yung strawberry shake? never tried a red lippie pa :(
ReplyDeleteThis works just fine for me! Happy to have it in my bag at all times. Color stays on for quite sometime :)
ReplyDeleteThe colors look okay naman but I don't use 'em. I prefer using it as a keychain and it never fails to catch attention. Hehe :)
ReplyDeleteWow, very pigmented pala to! I gave mine to my friend hehehehe :D Pero you're right, I don't like lip colors in pots too as much as possible kasi it's not very hygienic. Even if you use a brush, you have to wash it regularly (like everyday) if not kasi, it's like double dipping lang din hahaha
ReplyDeleteDi ba? And I find na mas hassle dalhin than a lipstick talaga. Pero this one, yeah maganda naman pigmentation :))
ReplyDeleteHaha matry nga rin! Di ko pa sya nagagamit as keychain
ReplyDeleteOh, very nice! :D
ReplyDeleteDi masyado. More of a pinkish red. I usually combine Milk Chocolate and Strawberry Shake to get a nice red shade, like the one I'm wearing in the pic :)
ReplyDeleteaww :( Maybe you got a bad batch? Yeah, the scent is... yummy? Hahaha :)
ReplyDeleteThanks! I've had this for a while but found time to write about if just now :)
ReplyDeleteCool! Ngayon lang ako nakakita ng ganito eh :)
ReplyDeletelove your lips <3 i want n tlga nitoh hehe
ReplyDeleteCute nung bubblegum! 8D Meron akong ganto before from Penshoppe (pero hindi keychain XD) na mini palette pero hassle talaga siya pag nagmamadali ka! Haha. To think na may brush pang kasama yun XD
