Mini Haul Neutrogena products+ ELF Overview

Hi! Ladies.I'm so excited to share with you guys these mini haul, I've been eyeing for these products for quite some time now but It's kinda hard for me to get it because these products are only available at SM malls "Watsons". It will take 2 hours drive going to SM Baguio the nearest SM mall here in La,Union, such a hassle especially for me who don't have enough time during my day-off.

But the good thing is my hubby got these products for me, He went immediately to Watsons and sent it through LBC after receiving my text message "Such a sweetie bear". He works in Batangas City by the way.

So enough of the rambling lets get into the haul.      


 He got me two ELF eye shadow primer, it cost him Php. 130 each.you already know how this product works and how amazing it is.


Just recently Neutrogena introduce their newest breakthrough on skin care this includes two facial washes, but i got the:NEUTROGENA DEEP CLEAN BRIGHTENING MULBERRY ULTRA FOAM CLEANSER.  

 Developed with dermatologists, the formula combines the leading Neutrogena Deep Clean technology that effectively removes 99% of dullness-causing dirt, oil, impurities and dead skin cells from the skin with a velvety fine foam, and the proven Whitening Efficacy of Mullberry Extracts that are rich in Vitamins B3 and C to help visibly brighten skin, and this new product cost at an SRP of Php 307.50 only.

Neutrogena also introduced their newest addition to their Hydro Boost Line. 
The NEUTROGENA HYDRO BOOST GEL SPF 30 PA++
I actually stop using sunscreen products "those in cream/lotion forms" because it gives me the greasy heavy feeling right after applying it onto my face especially when the weather is so humid. That is why I am really excited to try these product because it is on gel form. If you have oily skin like mine gel-based moisturizer works better to balance our skin.This new product cost at an SRP of Php. 830 only.  
It says:It gives long lasting hydration with sun protection for soft and supple skin with a lasting healthy glow. 
  • Refreshing gel formula contains Hyaluronic Acid and Olive Extract that provides up to 4 times more moisture to dry skin cells for up to 12 hours.
  • Shields skin from darkening and photo damaging rays during the day with broad spectrum UV filters UVA/UVB SPF 30 PA++
Once again a million thanks to my hubby for supporting my passion for beauty. Don't worry ladies an in depth review on this products will be up very very soon. bye!!!!

Paint Box Nutrilips herbench product review.

Hi! Everyone,

It's Monday, and I am quite busy with office works but still find time to squeeze in my post today so that I don't have to rush doing blogs over the weekends. :) Time management is a must lol..

I've been planning to buy a new lipstick a few weeks ago but I don't have any idea what brand to pick since we don't have Watsons here in La,Union.There are few boutiques here sells Maybelline products but in a higher price.:( hopeless ang peg.

but then i remember bench do have a cosmetic line called paintbox and i got my first shade of lipstick their a while ago, so i decided to go back and purchase another shade.
 The product came in a glossy/shiny box like this. "cute".

Coco Lush/Blush Hour

And i got the shade Blush Hour, the coco lush is my first purchase by the way.
Left: Coco Lush            Right: Blush Hour
 Swatches for you ladies coco lush is more of a brown color, and blush hour is more on peachy color.



 And the cover is on this rectangular transparent plastic with pink tubes as a base that holds the lipstick up for application..   
Coco Lush/Blush Hour
as you can see I used coco lush a lot because this products are just amazing and they only cost me Php.199 each, and another good thing about this, it contains Shea Butter and has SPF15. 
Its non drying and the scent is just delicious smells like chocolate yum yum yum. It glides on smoothly and the staying power is enough to last me the whole day. 

made in Italy.

I really am excited to try out other products from paintbox line like their pressed powder, eye-shadows, lip glosses but they don't have enough stock when i went there. But no worries because I will post reviews on them as soon as i purchase those products from herbench.  

I think that's it, see yah next post ladies

EASY PEASY OFFICE MAKE-UP LOOK TUTORIAL

Hi! lovelies,
Finally the sun showed up today, it's been weeks that we had gloomy weather and heavy rains here in La,Union. It took me so long to took pictures and blog a tutorial because of the weather.
So now I am gonna teach you guys how to look fab even on a regular working days.. didn't took step by step pictures because this tutorial is pretty easy.


    

Lets get into the tutorial shall we?
Face:


  • Instead of using foundation, I only use concealer to hide blemishes and set it with a powder to prevent cakey face throughout the day.
  • don't neglect your eyebrows, it will serve as a frame of your face.
  • contour hallows of my cheek up to the temples and jawline to add dimensions.
  • add blush and blend together with the bronzer.
Eyes:


  • Apply white eye-shadow onto the brow-bone and inner corners of the eyes as high light.
  • With a fluffy blending brush take a shimmery gold color and dust it onto the lid up to the crease,
  • Now for the fun part, with an eyeliner brush/pencil brush taking the green eye-shadow and apply to the 1/3 part of the lower lash line.
  • Apply liquid eyeliner on upper lash line and create a little bit of a wing. This technique will make our eyes bigger and more awake. 
  • curl thy lashes and apply several coats of mascara.
Lips:


  • Apply lipstick of your choice, but i prefer pink because it add glows onto the face.   

And that's it, neutral everyday look with a pop of color easy peasy and not dull looking.

Beauty Cosmetics 12pc Synthetic brush set

 Hi!! Lovelies,

I'm so excited to share with you guys my new stuff "beauty stuff to be exact" today's post is gonna be all about make-up brushes Yay!!!!.

first of all I purchase this brushes and this is not sponsored by the seller this post are my personal thoughts about this product.
 I purchase this brush set from an online shop called Beauty Cosmetics, I heard and read a lot of good reviews about this brush  set from Ms. Say Tioco Artillero and Ms. Emafe Rice both my favorite beauty blogger. They said that these are perfect dupes for sigma brushes. I really can't compare them because i don't own any sigma brushes.


The set comes in a pink silky brush roll which is absolutely gorgeous and secures the brushes inside. This has V magnetic strap for securing and opening.

I really fell in love the first time I opened it, all of them are secured and wrapped with plastic brush guards. It was so cute and chic and the gradient effect of the bristles added sophistication. For the price of Php.1,250 you will get 12 pcs of good quality brushes and a freebie of small flat top brush and these are made of synthetic bristles..   

Face Brushes:
I will name them starting from left to right.

  1.  Foundation Brush- Perfectly made for liquid foundations, it blends and distributes the foundation evenly, it doesn't leaves stripey finish strokes because of the soft bristles.
  2. Large Powder Brush- Dense enough to pick-up loose powder and pressed powder. 
  3. Angle contour brush- I love this one because it blends my bronzer really well and contour perfectly, this can be also used for dusting blushes.
  4. Freebie Small Flat Top Brush- Also good for contouring or blushes.
  5. Large Flat top Brush- This brush does multi-tasking it can be used for cream or powder foundation, also perfect for applying blush and bronzer.

Eye Brushes.
I will name them starting from left to right.


  1. Concealer Brush- A flat brush with an oval tip perfect for applying any concealer formula.
  2. Large Shader Brush- for easy application of eye shadow all over the lid.
  3. Angled Shader Brush- For applying darker eye shadow to add shape and depth to the crease area.
  4. Large Crease Brush- for applying eye shadow on the crease area and eye lid.
  5. Pencil Brush- perfect for highlighting the inner corners of the eyes.
  6. Blending Brush- essential for blending harsh eye shadow edges.
  7. Flat Eye Shadow Brush- For patting eye shadow onto the lids.
  8. Angled Eye liner brush- For precise eyebrow product application, can be use also for lower lash line and black cream eyeliner. 

I highly recommended this brush set for beginners or even professional make-up artist out there who are in a hunt of a inexpensive yet good quality of make-up brushes. I personally love this brushes because it doesn't leaves fall outs even after you wash it. So if you're interested here is a link to their online shop for your convenience. www.facebook.com/beautycsmetics



see yah next time guys bye..

Maybelline Clear Smooth Minerals B.B Cream product review

Hey!! Lovelies,


Yes... it's official!! rainy days is already here, and now I am sick. anyways I don't wanna let this cold and cough stop me from blogging that is why i did this post today, isn't that great? oh well I have to stop annoying you guys.Lets get into the review :)


Are you a FAN of BB creams? here is a product review just for you in case you encounter this product. 
 It's gonna be all about the Maybelline Clear Smooth Minerals Fresh B.B Cream.
 B.B cream or Blemish Balm Cream is among  Asia's hottest beauty products right now, Due to its "multi-tasking" all-in-one properties  moisturizer, primer, foundation, and sunblock. And it also comes in a wide variety of brands. 
 I got the chance to purchase this product last summer when i saw it at the drugstore "Mercury Drugstore", as I am reading the label I got more interested because  it say's this has 8 mineral ingredients the unique earth color shade instantly improves and perfects your skin. It brightens+evens skin, covers imperfections, moisturizes and protects with SPF 26/PA+++. And the packaging is in this tiny squeeze bottle contains 18ml of the product, but it doesn't come in different shades.
 The product's consistency is liquid which is easy to blend by using your fingers or brush, but for me i prefer using the fingers because it blends the product evenly onto my face.
Just in case your wondering
i used careline lipstick in Cotton candy.
 The coverage for me is in light when i applied it with one layer, but when i tried the second layer it leaves a white cast on my face and it doesn't cover that much blemishes,that is why I have to use a concealer to cover those bad boys. I also have to wait for a few minutes to let my skin absorb it and to apply powder to set it.
 I use this B.B cream twice a week just to skip my foundation and to let my skin breath. I also stop using this last summer because it melts when i get sweat because of humidity.
But now as the rain starts pouring down and the weather is not that hot anymore, I started using this almost everyday.


Pros:
Cheap
Lightweight
Easy to blend
Doesn't give me breakouts
The scent is fine

Cons:
One shade only
Not full coverage
Melts when it's humid





Ratings:
Packaging 4/5
Consistency 4/5
Coverage 3/5
Re-purchase: nope!because I am open to try out other brands.

That would be all for this blog ladies till next time.

Lots of Love

Clean and Clear Deep Action cleanser product review

Hi! lovely reader,
For today's post, I'm gonna be reviewing about the Clean and Clear Deep Action Cleanser as promised.

For the last few months I've been in a hunt for a new face wash product, since I've been using ponds facial wash lately "which i love, but dries my face". I said to myself that i really have to try out other product.
Then when i went to the mall and had grocery shopping, I saw this new product from clean and clear and this one really caught my attention.
The product come is in a bright blue squeeze type of packaging which is usual with a face wash product lol, then as I am reading the label it say's "Oil control, shine free for up to 8 hours". so i bought one and give it a try since i have an oily skin type.
This product is in thick consistency,which I like because when you squeeze it onto your palm the product wont fell off.
And this is how it looks like when you add water on it, it feels like this has micro beads that melts onto your skin right after you lather it. and what i most like about it, this face wash doesn't stings my eyes so bad unlike Ponds and Celeteque. 

Verdict:
It really does control oil but not up to 8 hours. 
gives you fresh and non drying feeling after washing your face.
It's cheap and you can purchase it at any drugstore nationwide.
It removes dirt and make-up easily.
It doesn't have that strong scent.
It doesn't give me breakouts.

Rate:
Packaging- 5/5
Consistency- 5/5
Oil Control- 4/5
Re-purchase- Yes, 

That would be all guys for this product review, this is my real thoughts about this product, its not sponsored or anything. Hoping that this might help you finding a face wash that suits your skin type.

Lots of Love
