Ellana Cosmetics is one of my favorite local brands since their products are vegan and cruelty-free, and yet are made from pure ingredients. Thanks to this brand that I was able to continue putting on makeup even during pregnancy. My top 3 favorite products from the brand are the lip in luxe matte liquid lipstick, mineral powder foundation and makeup brush cleaner!

But after trying out the Lip Drunk Blush, I think I have a new favorite! Lip Drunk blush (P 449.00 for a refill) is a tinted lip and cheek balm stain that has a creamy texture but sets off matte. What I have is the shade Sangria, a deep red color that is similar to that of a red wine. It has a subtle flowery scent that is barely noticeable once applied.

I love it because it works great as both blush and lip stain! I have tried other lip and cheek stain or balms that either worked great as a blush or a lip stain, but not both. But this one from Ellana is superb! As a blush, I was able to blend it easily. It’s buildable so you may opt to just put a little for just a hint of color or build it up to emphasize your cheeks. It lasted for around 4-5 hours, considering my cheeks are oily. The best thing is that it is really moisturizing, leaving no dry patches.

As a lip stain, it’s also very creamy and moisturizing. It’s buildable that I was able to achieve the deep red color I want. It doesn’t last that long on my lips though, around 2-3 hours only, so I had to reapply once in a while. It leaves a natural stain on the lips when it fades, so it gives that pretty MLBB look. Just a tip, make sure that you to scrub your lips first before applying the stain. I tried applying it on my dry lips and it highlighted the patches, especially when I built up the stain. Other than that, I have no other issues with this product.

A little product goes a long way too! I have used the stain for 1 week already, but it still looks so full. Definitely worth the money. I’m excited to try out other shades soon. Now my top 3 products from Ellana are the lip in luxe matte liquid lipstick, mineral powder foundation and Lip Drunk blush!
