For someone with a huge square face, I'm not really into blushes. I prefer countouring my face than emphasizing my cheek bones. Blush and contour actually go hand in hand, but I don't want to go full makeup especially during field work. Sayang makeup .   I got myself a cream blush from Revlon just because it's on sale. Got it for P 150 . And though it's really cheap, I don't think it's a steal for the shade I got. hahah :( I don't swatch when I buy makeup. I simply pick up stuff so that explains a number of regrets. Net weight: 12.4 grams The shade is Pinch which is the lightest shade.It's super light that it barely show up. I believe it will stand out on pale skin and if you're looking for a more natural finish. My reason for picking it up is the shade or color of the product by the packaging. I assumed that it is a vibrant peachy color. Pati sa pagbili ng makeup, assumera pa rin ako. So ayan, regret.  When it ...

My boyfriend and I were on our way to Gateway for dinner when we happened to pass by a Revlon counter in Farmers. Of course, I couldn’t resist checking it out, and I was thrilled to see their price board—everything was on sale! 😊 This is my chance to try out some fabulous products without breaking the bank.

Whenever I’m in a hurry, I often skip a few routines, like applying foundation. But one step I never miss is fixing my brows. They say the brow is the frame of the face, and I couldn’t agree more! A well-defined brow gives a neat appearance, even if the rest of the face is bare. Is It Easy? Everyone has their own way of filling in their brows—some use powders, while others swear by pencils. For me, when I’m running late, I reach for my pencil and nothing else. I find it quick and easy to use! After applying, I simply brush off any excess product with a spoolie or a cotton bud for a more natural finish. Bonus: The cap of my brow pencil also doubles as a sharpener, which is super convenient! ✏️ Its cap is also a sharpener. A Busy Life Before my busy days as a field engineer, I had plenty of time to perfect my brow game as a student. Now that I work over 8 hours a day with early call times, I rely on my San San Pencil in Light Brown for a quick fix. What I love about this...

Hi there! I’m back with a newfound love, and this time it’s all about lipstick! While I have a ton of lip products, I realize I haven’t featured many liquid lipsticks, so this is my very first review! 🎉 Today, I’m excited to share my thoughts on the Ever Bilena Advance Liquid Lipstick in the shade Pink Pearl . I’ve used their matte lipsticks before, and while I love them, I found them a bit drying and they often required some extra moisturizing. But fear not—I still adore their matte lipsticks! The good news is that Ever Bilena has now introduced a liquid lipstick that provides a cream finish. You can even achieve a matte look by blotting it with tissue paper! The best part? It’s super budget-friendly at ₱180 ! 💸 Net Weight: 5ml Expiration: 24 months Net weight: 5ml Expiration: 24 M The packaging consists of a sleek white plastic tube with a twist cap and a doe-foot applicator, making it easy to apply. Performance This liquid lipstick is incredibly pigmented an...

The search for a long wearing makeup never stops. There are maybe hundreds of brands to choose from but only few can provide that amazing color pay off without fallout and that doubles as base too. Is it really a great product for 24 hours? Of course it is not recommendable to allow makeup to sit on the face for a day. I guess it's meant to last for 24 hours. The Maybelline tattoo eye shadow  is not the "new thing" in the makeup market. Despite the reviews and the great hype for years already, it was just few months ago that I purchased one. First, I have been used to eye powders for too long. Lastly, if I have to make it pigmented I will just apply an eye primer or eye pencil as base. Here is what Maybelline says about their product: “Dare to wear 24HR shadow. • Ink technology creates 24HR wear shadow for our most intense, long-lasting color saturation • Cream formula glides on without creasing and keeps color vibrant • Ophthalmologist-tested.  Safe for se...

For some, eyeliners are essential for creating that dramatic eye look. As for me, I love to do a thick sharp line until I got a comment from a friend of mine that I overdo this whole fashion and makeup thing. Okay, so he doesn't like girls with a pageant makeup and killer heels and I’m so affected - it breaks my heart. haha  Point taken. For a makeup lover, it’s a natural thing to put on that great makeup even if I’m only to grab a few items from the market. I agree that it’s too much for simple activities but it’s also another way of putting your makeup for a road test. He wouldn't understand of course but I understand that he has his preferences. The goal now is to lessen products a little bit. So I started opting for an eyeliner that will create precise wings. Maybelline provided the answer with its Hypersharp Wing Liquid Liner in 0.5g . Long Lasting and Waterproof I love this eyeliner. T he super fine felt tip can do from thin to think lines. P...

L'Oreal  released their reformulated True Match foundation. Of course, we've heard a lot of hypes on original True Match Foundation so the expectation for the reformulated one is kinda greater.  If I remember it correctly, I bought them during the Sale week in SM for P 400. The foundation comes in a squarish and sturdish glass bottle with a pump. The two (2) shades that I got are N3 Nude Vanilla and G1 Gold Ivory. The one I always use is the Gold Ivory. It suits me best. First and foremost, I want to inform you that this foundation has shimmers. It's not too much, just enough to give you a dewy look when skin is dry and under cold conditions; and sweaty when oily and humid. It's not everyday that you get good cold office conditions. If you commute a lot and you travel by series of  Jeepneys  and full packed train then I would say this will upset you. There was this one time, when I went out to conduct site inspection. One of my ...

I actually bought the items below last month. Anyway, I'm looking for products that are kind of sweat proof and good under extreme conditions. From my previous post, I mentioned that I do field work now. Most of the time, I get all sweaty from the insufficient ventilation in sewage treatment facilities. It's definitely hot. The products I bought are from Maybelline and Loreal . Loreal released their new liquid foundation and so I bought two shades to test whether they will work great on me or not.  On the other hand, I have been using Maybelline powder foundation for months now. I realized, during field work, my face easily becomes oily. Right now, I'm thinking if I'll try another brand. I'll do in-depth reviews on the products. :) See you soon -End-  Thank you for reading :">

I know I have been away for too long. It's not unusual. Every year I say the same thing (hahaha :P) Well, you know how life can be tougher than usual right? Let me start this year with a little of what I did. And yes, it's not really something to know, but this will give you an idea why I opt for a different fashion now. I first worked for Emerson and transferred to a waste water company. That is from sleepless nights to overflowing human waste. No. I don't clean comfort rooms. I design treatment for any types of waste water and that would mean a dirty job literally. The thing is, Field work is making my hair  "malagkit"  and skin darker. And i'm getting these breakout from all the dirt. Lastly, I can't use my heels. Apparently, this year is a year of blowing my mind with the kinetics of microbes - that's actually fine but the part where I can't wear all those cute dress and curl my hair isn't. So follow me as I engineer waste water in ...
