Roadtesting REVLON's Midnight Swirl at Let's Go Sago's Blogger Pool Party!



I had such a busy day yesterday! I went to the dentist at noon, stopped by the REVLON Clearance Sale in Makati Cinema Square, and went to Let's Go Sago's blogger pool party!

I picked up Midnight Swirl Lip Lustre in Reddish Fetish from the Revlon sale at Php525 (usual price Php875) and immediately decided to try it out. I'm such a huge fan of pinkish/nude lippies, so this New Year I've decided to go with a more daring, bold red!

Midnight Swirl did not disappoint in the color department (as you can see in the first photo; I took this in the car on the way to the party, so it's freshly applied), but sadly it was *quite* sticky. I'm not sure if this is because it was on clearance and thus slightly old, but stickiness in lip glosses is a *big* No for me. :P

In terms of staying power, it proved quite good though. I was on my third cup of tea before the color started fading, and I actually only had to reapply once during the four-hour party. :D All in all, I'd give Midnight Swirl an "A+" for color and staying power, but a "C-" for comfort (down with stick lipglosses!).

Interested ladies can check out the REVLON clearance sale at Makati Cinema Square, Ground Floor Walkway (in front of Dunkin Donuts). I just stumbled across this sale because my dentist's office is near this mall, haha. Talk about lucky!

Here's a few shots from the pool party!



Josh and Me. Sadly, no swimming for us because
Josh had a cough and didn't want to pass it on. :(


Posing with the beautiful Joy from Pink Monster!



Jonel, the blogger behind LetsGoSago.net was
our gracious host (he's the guy in orange).

There were tons of giveaways and lots of food, and Josh and I hung out with old and new blogger friends. Around 30 people came, and I wish I had a copy of the group photo at the end! Can anyone pass it along to me so I can put it up? :D

It was awesome seeing everyone again. Til next time, guys and gals! :*
