Ever Bilena lipstick in Mauvey

In my high school days, I used to think Ever Bilena was a bad brand. Now that I'm older and wiser (or so I like to believe!), I realize it's a good-but-cheap brand that shows promise for improving more and more as the years go by.


I think this nude pink lipstick, priced only at around P120.00, says a lot about my current opinion of them.

Despite its packaging - which looks professional from a distance but feels cheap when touched, both the lipstick's pigmentation and application were excellent. (I just noticed as I was typing the previous sentence: most of my complaints about makeup products are about packaging. :P)

I really think Mauvey is a nice, pale pink that pulls off "nude" without looking too washed out.



ETA: Although it isn't flaky, the lipstick is quite drying, so be sure to have some lip balm/butter underneath.

  2. Shobe - Glad you like my reviews! No, it's not flakey, but it's a bit drying, so I use lip butter underneath. Thanks for bringing this up, adding it to the review now.:D

  7. Did you notice any off taste or smell with your Mauvey? I bought one months ago and I returned it because it had this weird plastic smell and taste, plus it made my lips sting. :(

  8. ^Mine has a waxy lipstick smell, but it didn't make my lips sting since I always put on lip balm or lip butter before using it. No weird taste either.

  9. thanks for this review! i am adding this in my to-buy list.

    i also bought a nude lippie at FS naman, more of peachy tone and i liked it! really nice on smokey eyes effect.

    but i'll try this one too as I am quite fond of mauve-toned makeups...

  10. I love the color! I'll check this product out when I go out next time. Nice blog, BTW. It's pretty hard to find beauty blogs about Filipino products so Stockpiled is pretty useful!
