Clarins Water Lip Stain Review

Reading Time: 4 minutesClarins Water Lip Stain Review  

Clarins Water Lip Stain Review

Today, let’s talk about lips. Now, when liquid lipstick first came out, they were all the rage. I literally ran out and purchased 10 in one go cause I was so committed to the liquid-lip game. Fast forward a few years and our love for liquid lips has faded. Initially, liquid lips offered the hope of a super long-wearing lipstick that would budge. But, the hope fell flat once we realized that sure, liquid lips may last longer – but when you eat or drink, they’ll still remove, and when they wear off during the day they make your lips look extremely patchy. Oh – and reapplying a liquid lip? Usually, you have to start all over again! How annoying. So unless you’re bringing makeup remover wipes wherever you go, you’re probably like me and taking a little step back from liquid lips.   Clarins Water Lip Stain ReviewClarins Water Lip Stain Review   I recently was sent the Clarins Water Lip Stain collection, I was immediately curious to try them out. I remember loving lip stains during high-school, and I thought maybe the Clarins Water Lip Stain would be the long-wearing lip that we all hoped liquid lipsticks would be.

Clarins Lip Water Stain Review

When you apply these lip stains, you’ll want to go in with a light hand to carefully apply the stain within the lip-line (it’s very easy to accidentally get some outside of your lip-line and then have a stained chin!), and layer the lip stain up to get to full opacity. The colours themselves only take about 2 layers to become bright and bold tones. Let the stain then dry on your mouth to keep the full bright colour – this takes about 30 seconds.

*Note: if you want a more subtle and soft look, then blot lips before they are fully dry, or just apply 1 thin layer

To hydrate your lips and get a glossy finish, apply the hydrating lip-topper. The lip-topper I have is in “Honey”, a soft and subtle yellow-gold-tone that applies clear on your lips.

The Shades:

Rose Water: a bright peppy hot pink Orange Water: a bright orange-soda orange Red Water: a pretty pinky-red with some orange tones in it. Violet Water: a berry magenta. Honey (hydrating lip topper): yellow-gold that turns clear on lips
Clarins Water Lip Stain Review   Once the stains dry down, it feels like you have absolutely nothing on your lips. This stain is extremely long-wearing but after about 6 hours (depending on how much you eat and drink during that time) you’ll notice it begins to fade. Thankfully it doesn’t fade in a flaky or patchy fashion, instead it just overall begins to fade away. With the oil-topper, I initially thought this product may be like the Lipsense products that are so popular right now. And, if you follow me on Instagram then you likely know that I really dislike Lipsense products. They burned my lips, made them extremely chapped, and the intense smell of chemicals made me really uneasy about Lipsense lipsticks overall. Thankfully, these stains aren’t like that at all. They do not burn, instead, they feel very cooling when applied, they actually feel quite hydrating initially, and they smell like sugary syrup.  (Also, be sure you follow me on Instagram – I recently live swatched these lip shades and I test makeup out often on there!)

“I want to grow seeing you smiling” 💛 I s “I want to grow seeing you smiling” 💛 

I saw so many powerful messages today from people sharing their "why" — the reason behind why they were there and standing as one of the "fringe". Here's a few reasons that I saw and heard: 

- Why? Because I want my child to grow seeing smiles and smiling
- Why? Because I miss my family and loved ones.
- Why? Because my lived experience tells me not to trust what is happening right now. 
- Why? Because I believe in our informed consent principles.
- Why? Because I believe in choice without coercion. 
- Why? Because I’ve lost my job as a healthcare worker. 
- Why? Because I’ve lost my business. 
- Why? Because I’ve lost my home. 
- Why? Because I’ve been injured. 
- Why? Because I think there’s a better way forward for everyone. 
- Why? Because I chose what I knew was best for me and I want everyone else to be free to do that as well. 

Everyone has a unique reason why, and it’s important to take a moment to recognize and acknowledge them. Now is the time. Let's come together and be united💛

I want to be clear: I am not trying to dismiss the I want to be clear: I am not trying to dismiss the loss and illness that so many have experienced from C. It has been an extraordinarily hard two years for many, many people, for all sorts of different reasons and it is not my aim to diminish any of them. What I am trying to express is that we are at a breaking point societally. 

If we continue to move forward with coercion, mandates, restrictions, and divisive passports based on fear (or a hope) then we risk setting precedents that we may not be comfortable leaning on in the future. We also risk dividing our society to such a degree that may make it difficult, if not impossible, to ever bring back together. Despite all of the debates, arguments, and comments made over the last few years, I do not believe that deep down Canadians want to live in a state of perpetual division.

If this is not the time to unite and end these mandates, when is? It is our systems that are broken, and they have been broken for a very long time. We all know this. Let's unite and fix them, and more together 💛

Creating our own peace ☮️

Nearing the end of 2021, one thing that Jer & I wanted to prioritize was creating our own peace. Life has been exhausting for the last long while and, like most people, our mental well-being suffered from the current state of Canada. We knew we needed to make some changes, add something to our lives to remove us (even temporarily, now and again) from the chaos that is now the “new normal”. So, we began making road trips around BC to find our very own home away from home. I feel immensely lucky to now have this remote sanctuary in our lives. It is somewhere we can go when life gets too overwhelming, somewhere we could live eventually if life continues to be overwhelming. In just the first few days here, I’ve already felt a shift in my mindset. I feel incredibly lucky to have this place and already it feels like home. 💖
✨Growing pains✨ . . . 2021, for many of us, w ✨Growing pains✨
. . . 
2021, for many of us, was a year of growth. Some of it was painful, most of it inspiring, and all of it necessary. Sometimes growing means needing to shed the older versions of ourselves and sometimes that can be difficult or cause a loss in friendships or relationships. It can be challenging - believe me, I get it. But, anything or anyone who couldn't respect your growth then won't respect your future growth. While growth can be painful it is not nearly as painful as the dull consistent ache of feeling stuck.
