Review: Avon Skin So Soft Minerals Gems Glamorous Gold

Whew! That was very long title hahaha! Its getting hotter this few days huh? Lotion on skin became so annoying the greasy feeling like that. I'm not a lotion fanatic, I don't use lotion whenever I go out or going to sleep some people do that. Simply because I don't like the greasy feeling specially when this hot and all you want to do is to stay at home.

One day, I was with my BFF and I noticed her skin there were some shimmers on it. I thought she's wearing a stocking but she told me she bought a lotion from Avon with shimmers on it. She gave it to me since she has a lot of lotions.




no shimmers at all :)

I tried to dry up in my skin and voila goldy shimmers!
I tried it on Baguio since its cold there and I really need some moisture for my skin. I really love the effect! You just notice the glitters when under the light or sun  and no greasy feeling or heat from it.


What I love:
-soft scent
-shimmers!
-cheap :)

L'oreal Studio Line Downright Smooth review

Like other girls, I'm not blessed with long shiny straight hair. My hair was more wavy but every year I visit salon to get re-bonded but I was late that I realized I actually hurting my hair. It ended up dry, frizzy and unruly. So I decided to cut it and let the wavy hair grow.

After almost 5 months my hair grow longer and wavier but still unruly and frizzy. I get to used the Vitress Hair Cuticle which I really hate because it make my hair super oily and it weight down my hair.

When I visited American 99 store at Farmers and search for better american product. I saw Tresseme and Garnier Fructis which I read some good review but L'oreal Studio Line Down Right Smooth catches my attention because its more on milky liquid not oily which is I uber like!
frizzy hair arghh!

L'oreal Studio line 5.2 Fl oz.
See Its Milk!

Super Smoothing Milk
All the Look: Smooth and Tamed


Spray on my other side of my hair , distribute the product by combing and blow dry

my hair blow dried but without L'oreal

my hair blow dried with L'oreal
Now, Ready on the go!!

like:
Doesn't weight down my hair
Not Oily
No Funky Smell

dont like:
Not available locally since we know American Store has limited stocks of their products

Illamasqua Cream Eyeshadow in Morn


Holaaa ladies! Hows your Christmas? Did you already list your New Year Resolutions huh? I have a lot of resolutions, one of them is doing review on my favorite products like this one. I just realize that my Illamasqua blush and eyeshadow has similar color and love them! So lets dissect this one now .

Illamasqua cream eyeshadow pays real eye catching color intensity and i love it. Creamy and very pigmented, it doesn't have that sting smell that can hurt your nose. This is a good base for pink and purple EOTD. You can also wear this as blush on or lipstick.




Beautiful pink color

Swatched

on my eyes


If Illamasqua is available here, I would love to try all their products.
Some rave that their cream foundation was a way better than MAC.
Lipstick,blush and eyeshadow that I'm lemming oh gawd! that is so very pretty colors .
I think Illamasqua is a good make up investment.

Like:
  • creamy
  • pigmented
  • last long (with the primer of course!)
  • can use as blush and lipstick
  • satin-finish
  • sleek packaging
Dislike
  • not available locally
  • can't wear alone

The All Natural Face Mineral Foundation Review

Hello guys! I was supposed to post this last night but I was freaking tired of all the dancing party at our acquaintance party. That was really fun and I shouted my heart out loud but not being wild but it was the last day of our Foundation Day and also the last day of our pressure-less days at school. Next week we will probably really busy because we need to do some requirements and projects. So, as you remember that my lovely gal Thiamere has passed me her samples of The All Natural Face Mineral Foundation (wheew!) from Etsy. It really takes time for me to do a review because I'm on my test for BRTC bb cream review. This is my first time to do a review on MMU and there's a lot of shades and and it was really confusing! So what I do is I sorted them into family like if there is honey on their name they will be on honey family so that I don't get confused.


lot of samples huh?

Maybelline EyeStudio Lasting Drama Gel Liner

Hello ladies!! Sorry for lack of updates because of what am I going through but today enough for the drama and I'll survive, yeah~! hehe.. As I promise to my girls that I'm going to review Maybelline Eyestudio Lasting Drama Gel Liner (whoa super long name *grasping*) and not going to compare to others since this is my first ever gel liner and here it is:

Maybelline EyeStudio Lasting Drama Gel Liner (stated on the box):
  • Comes with Expert Liner Brush
  • Quick Dry
  • Smudge Proof
  • Water Proof
  • Creamy gel texture
  • It comes in Black, Brown and Blue (limited edition)
  • it cost 399php ($7?)
  • Available on SM malls

Creamy gel type allows to draw a draw a smooth clean fine without crease.
Customized eye line brush allows line to be drawn as desired from fine to thick.
The creamy gel texture dries quickly after application.
Long lasting, water-proof and smudge-proof formula that resists sweat, tears and water.




It is a nice creamy gel so it applied very smoothly and no scent!!!


The brush was dense, tapered and fairly stiff bristle.


I make some experiment, I applied gel liner on my skin and drop a water on it
then I rub about 2 times to check if its going to smudge or fade.
The result was really impressive.


I never had this perfect liner before when I'm using liquid liner.
It was very easy to pick up color and to apply it


Upon applying, it can take a couple of seconds to dry, so don’t blink too much or it might transfer.Once applied, it lasted on me the whole day without smudging so I’m giving this the thumbs up!

Nivea Pinkish Boost

Recently, I noticed my lips become darker and dull. All ladies wanted a natural kissable lips and I miss mine. Some may ask me if I started smoking or whatever comes in their mind, it so embarrassing and I make sure that I put pinkish lipstick shade on my lips and check it every seconds. How come may lips became this much darker? Maybe Thia is right... I'm just so excited to use the lipsticks I bought from her, you're right girl :C. Oh my precious lips... how can I turn back your pinkish color??

So, I was roaming around the mall this afternoon and tempted to buy something for myself, a Maybelline Gel Liner or a Maybelline Cat's eye Mascara which I have read a lot of good reviews about this two but obligations first before spend too much for myself. I visited Godiva stall to buy LicoWhite Lipgloss with Vitamin but one item catches my attention, a new product from Nivea and its Nivea Pinkish Boost.

So, whats up with the new product?

Nivea Lipcare Pinkish Boost, the first lip care product that helps reveal natural rosy lips. With its Pinkish Vitamin complex and regenerative ginseng, regular use will reduce the dullness of your lips and restore its natural rosiness or pinkish color. The product contains SPF 15 to help protect lips from further darkening while double moisturizers provide long lasting moisturization for up to eight hours.







Likes:
  • smells nice
  • long lasting moisturization
  • sun protection SPF 15
  • it has ginseng
Dislikes:
  • Much costly than Godiva 175 php

Naturally rosy lips, even without lipstick, are beautiful. But with exposure to external influences, lips could look dull and unhealthy but with Nivea Lipcare Pinkish Boost, you can get naturally rosy lips that always look fresh and alluring sans lipstick.
