I have discovered a great lip gloss brand that I am very excited to share to all of my readers. Cheap yet super pigmented.
The lip gloss is from Careline. Careline is a local cosmetic brand in the Philippines.
What I like about this lip gloss is that it comes it a very cute tube plastic container. Attached to its cap is a sponge applicator that is long enough to reach the very end of the tube.
Each tube costs only Php60 or approximately less than $2.
I purchased 6 shades ranging from a nude gloss to a super vibrant orange one.
I got them in shades 101, 103, 104, 107, 108 and 111.
I edited the pictures and wrote the shade number in it so that you will not get confused. :)
Here's a swatch of the glosses taken indoor with natural light.

Here are individual swatches of the lip glosses in the tube and when applied on lips.

PROS:
- Very cheap
- Super pigmented
- Formula is rich
- Decent smell- almost like a watermelon-ish smell
- Doesn't have awful taste
- Cute packaging
- Comes in different shades
- Can be purchased in local drugstores and department stores
CONS:
- Could feel too heavy on the lips after a couple of hours
- Doesn't stay on the lips for too long
I also noticed that the lip glosses didn't leave stain on the lips...
except for shade 108 which left a very subtle red stain on the lips.
I am in love with these lip gloss and since they are super cheap, I could use them as my everyday lip color.
My personal favorite is shade 104 that is a really girly and vibrant pink shade. I definitely recommend this brand to all of you.
